Chicago, July 21.-In opposing
Legislation intended to better con-
ditions of working women the
Manufacturers association of this
state declares:
Political economy teaches US
that wages are determined by the
law of supply and demand that the
employer cannot fix wages, If he
cannot and does not fix wages, he
cannot be held responsible for "un-
fair wage, 50 far as such may ex-
ist.
Writing in the Cigar Makers
Official Journal. President Per
kins of that organization punched
holes In this straw man and shows
that regardless of the law of sup
ply and demand" trade unionist
maintain wage scales in times Of
Industrial depression and that the
manufacturers defense is a fiction
created by them to excuse low wa
ges of their unorganized and help
less employees
"The sophistry and falsity en-
ployes, the above statement re-
quires no further comment, says
the cigar makers executive. ct
is plea of not guilty. Under this
system of philosophy the political
economist of Great Britain con-
tended the manufacturer could not
be held responsible for the wretcbed
condition of the factory operatives,
which prevailed 70 years ago. Let
everything alone; no interference
was their motto and with trade un-
ionism In infancy, mastering less
than 80, members, pauperism
became rampamt till the workhouses
(poor houses) sheltered approx
mately l 600, 600 people.
The political economists held
that human labor was a commodity
subject to the laws of supply and
demand, the same as other CONNIE
dities. This abstract theory was
not based upon actual conditions.
Goods, wares, merchandise, the
produce of land and manufactures
are classified as commodities. They
can be warehsused shattel mort
gagged, sold at action or at private
sale and shipped to all parts of the
globe.
"The slave prior to the Civil war
was a chattel, subject to the laws
that govern commodities.
"The free laborer was never a
commodity; he could not be sold at
auction to the highest bidder.

ist or trade unionist, If he still
clings to the discarded philosophy
that free labor was a commodity or
is still commodity, subject to the
