The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-12-07

In truth social welfare has liter ally nothing to do with industry to. day. It is profits. Farmers in Hi nois are favored with a particularly fine potatoe crop which clogs the market on the commission men. Thirty carloads at one dumping are thrown into quarrypit filled with water so that the price could be maintained although thousands starved that very winter in that very state. Coal is piled high at the pits mouth while the cities clamor for coal and it's price is incended in res ponse to the clamoring because of yearly controlled by board in Lon don which allows just so much raw Rio" to find it's way into the market. Sugar is stored in the plantation warehouses until the refineries ad- wise that the market demands can be easily met, quite regardless Of any human want. Hundreds of mills closed down in the textile in- dustry in 1894 and in 1907 when the panics beset the country, and men wore rags while the looms were still and refused, because of the lack of profit to supply human need.
 The .damnable hypocrisy of the Wilson attitude is simply founded upon this fact, that the industrial process is carried on for gain and not for the benefit of society. That society is benefited by it is an ac- cident and because of that accidental consideration, Wilson bases his whole theory of labor legislation.
 That labor legislation would be 1 justified were the same measures taken to see to it that under any and all considerations whether the owner found it profitable or not the machinery of production and distri. button was used to satisfy human wants.
 There is no morality at all in such legislation which denies the indi vidual the right to have access tt the means of production in order to gratify his immediate needs ant yet prevents the collective mas: from interfering with the profit making process in oder that the! can make ends me out of thei1 pay.
 Wilson claims that ,trikes should only be admitted after investigation He knows that this means that afte due notice has been given employers after they have been able to built up the machinery for breaking thu strike, after they have got ready tt replace those who will walk out consent is then graciously extended
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-12-07

the men to strike.
 That is the condition of things in Colorado and that is precisely the condition that has followed the in- ception of similar anti-strike legisla- tion to that which Wilson proposes to make national.
 However undue importance need not be given any strike legislation. The economic struggle between the exploited and the exploiting classes will not diminish in violence one iota by reason of any such legisla- tion. The worker will strike just the same. The fact that such strikes will be then illegal will not alter the situation any. It will mere ly make the industrial situation more acute. Wilson's proposal to weigh down the safety valve with laws so that the industrial system may carry higher pressure of social discontent will have the result which might be expected from any such generally resortedto and generally fatuous measure: it will intensity the explosion which will follow, that is all.
 Moreover, it will do what the ex- plotting classes least desire. It will compel industrial solidarity. It will
 make imperative massed action and it is to bring about general strike
 which might Fever so much longer otherwise be delayed. The men who fear to hang individually are not l daunted when they are united with
 men who are prepared to hang to- gether. The effect of the anti-strike
 law will be just precisely that it will 1 insist upon the supreme need of in-
 dustrial organization and so indus
 trial solidarity. The law can be re- garded therefore with no unkindly
 eyes. The more, the better.

of you too. Maybe she even likes
me a little. She has great influ-

would be best for you both to have
a woman about the house. She
was-almost afraid for Miles;
perhaps for you, too. She had
confidence in me. And 1t is the
truth that she persuaded Sir Miles
to think It would be we'll for him
to bring me here.
"Of course, he Is not in love

Some strange spirit, waking
within me, made me ask, (which

he answered. AT first, when
Miles said he was going to marry
you, | had no doubt that you had

For a minute | expected him

posed he had enough of the old
love left-or pity-to keep his
knowledge to himself, and for a
few days, believing there was that
barrier between us, suffered tor
lures.
Then. as time went on, and he
was gentle and loving as before,
began to think perhaps you
hadn't dared tell him all.
"All night long every night,

l threw up my head and looked
him full in the face.

he muttered. you must have toll,
Miles something about Helene an,

that Laurie detested the ideI
