Low Wages A Menace

San francisco, Feb. 25 The
Evening Bulletin of this city is not
impressed with the steel trust
wage increase of 10 per cent or
81, 500, 600 TO its $50, 600 employees.
The Bulletin editor says:
This indicates an average an
ual wage of about $500 per man
The same result is obtained by
multiplying the rate per hour-22
cents for unskilled labor-frst by
10, as the average number of hours
worked in a day, and then by 800,
which is probably above the maxi
mum number Of days worked in a
year. 1t has been a foresighted
policy among steel manufacturers,
blessed as they have been with an
unlimited supply of unskilled labor
from abroad, to attach to their ser
vice number of men considerably
in excess of those that they could
employ at one time, or at least for
any appreciable time.
Besides this, it has to be re-
membered that the $500 rate is an
average, and that there must be
wages which fall below $500.
Seven hundred dollars a year, &C
cording to the careful computations
of numerous investigators, is the
minimum amount on which the
average workingman can bring up
family in bare decency. Bare
decency" excludes nearly every
thing that we cali luxuries. 1t
signifies condition under which a
workingman is practically, in bru-
tai terms, no better off than a
breeding animal"

-1s 1niUn TO get good wages tnen you
are listening to selfish workman.
When you hear a workman say that
the union never did anything for him
he is either ignorant or he is another
selfish workman. When you see
workman who is employed in an open
shop and refuses to join the union you
are looking at a selfish workman who
is willing TO reap what others have
sown.
When you find member of a union
who refuses to pay his dues because he
cannot be forced to pay, you have
found one more selfish workman.
The selfish workman does not meet
with any greater success in life than
the workman who makes sacrifices to
his fellow man, for the self seeking in
dividual by his niggardly ways stands
in his own light and III the road of
his own progress. Carpenters Trade

credit on both parties to the strike for

In settling the strike all sides are to
be congratulated first. the strikers for
submitting their case to arbitration
and abiding by the decision afterward.
although their leaders felt that the de
cision worked injustice to the employee;
next, the employers for their acquies-
cence in the umpires' decision, and last
of all the arbitrators for the time, the
thought and the fairness which they
brought to their activities Finally
the strike proved that there is no labor
difficulty that cannot be submitted and
settled by arbitration when the board
of umpires is comprised of men of abil-
ity and honesty and who realize the
Importance of their duties.

Hamilton Lodge, No. 241, held

Fred Griffith and Vice President,
Pete Conion attended the meeting

ported that the machinists in Day
ton are c)miug into the union and
it will not be long until they will
have a large membership. The
manufacturers in that city are put
ting up stiff fight against the un-
ion but the men are determined to
organize.
A communication was received
from Iron Molders Union, No. 68.
That organization asked the ma
chinists to assist them in securing
donations for the benefit of Cole
man Brown family The machin-
lists will assist.
Six members initiated and eleven

Grs Report Government

Phoenix, Ariz. Feb. z5.-At the
request of Governor Hunt, Hywel
Davis and Joseph s Myers, fed-
eral commissioner OF copciliation,
have forwarded the state executive
list of gains made by 5000 en-
ployes in the Clifton Morenci Met
calf copper district, after strike
of several months.
Before the strike these workers
were denied anv form Of organiza-
ton and during the strike the mine
managers refused to arbjtrate The
commissioners now state that no
objection is made to a local or
ganizatlon among the men, > and
that "the results indicate that
about 80 per cent of the employees
are members of this local organiza-
ton, which is represented By
committee of five from each Of the
three companies.
Hereafter committees represent
ing the workers will be recognized,
and the maaagers will hold month
ly conferences with the committees.
In other words, said the com
missioners, the latch string is on

claimed was the case in the past

pay Mexicans less than Americans,

wage for these camps will be fixed
on the highest basis of any mining
camps in the state regardless cf
race. Wages of skilled workmen
have been increased so that they
will now compare favorably with
the best in the state
All employees are to be re en-
ployed without discrimination, and
guarantees are made that foremen
who exploit their workmen will be
discharged.
The psychological effects Of the
strike, continues the commission
ers, are shown in the elimination
of race prejudices and the develop
ment of brotherhood among the
workmen, which bears fruit il
unity of purpose and willingness:
to suffer and sacrifice for THEN
common good.
