PLEASING FEATURE
One of the pleasing features of the
gathering Monday was the fact that
there were distributed among the
delegates a number of boxes of Yaki-
ma apples, the gift of the local Trades
and Labor Council, which is the host
to the state delegates. The fruit was
greatly enjoyed though some of the
ladies said the skin of the Yakima
apples was very tough and they were
without pocket knives.
There was no business Tuesday
night, the delegates being the guests
of the local members at a dance at
Eagles hall.
VIEWS OF PRESIDENT MARSH
Among other things in his report,
President Marsh, in addition to his
talk on educational matters, had the
following to say:
after 20 years of continuous eff
fort, Andrew Furuseth, International
President of the Seamen, has secured
federal enactment that places the sal
lor on an equality with other work
men, makes of him free moral agent
and not a mere chattel before the
mast. The sections of the Clayton
antitrust bill defining the legal rights
of labor organizations, gives the sane
ton of law to a principal as vital and
far-reaching as was the right of pc
tition granted by King John centuries
ago underneath the Charter Oak. The
creation of the Federal Relations
Commission by act of congress and
the investigations of that commission,
the enactment of the clayton bill'
and the "LaFollette Seamen's Act
mark milestone in the progress of
American workmen Revolutionary
legislation is rarely fully appreciated
by those living in the immediate per
iod, a decade must pass before the
proper perspective can be gained.

Dor is the report of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Co. also on conditions
in New York City. Following is a
summary of the insurance company's
report:
Number of families s----------155,96 $50
Number of wage Garner. .-- -252.9l2
Number of unemployed wage
earners -------------------- 45421
Per cent. of unemployed wage
This again only rated those actual
ly without any kind of employment.
Further investigations OF the Met
ropolital Life Insurance Co. in u
Western cities in June and July gave
12.9 per cent totally unemployed, and
20.2 per cent. part time wage earn
ers, with Seattle 12.7 per cent and
14S per cent. Spokane, 1877 and 20.4
per cent Ogden, Utah. was lowest,
with as and 143 per cent. and Port
land, Ore, highest, with 20 per cent.
totally unemployed and 172 per cent
part time wage earners A similar
investigation by the same company
in Is Eastern cities in March and
April gave 11.5 per cent unemployed
and 1915 per cent part time wage
earners.
We are sure those figures are also
too small, for the Metropolitan Life
made its investigation among persons
who carried its policies. Since only
the more fortunate wage workers are
able to carry insurance, it is plain
that the extent of unemployment in
this class of wage workers is much
less than among the average of the
working class.
INCREASING IMPORTANCE OF
PROBLEM
Some idea of the increase in un-
employment in recent years may be
CLEANED from a table summarizing the
reports of representative trade unions
for each month, 1902 to 1914 inclu-
sive, showing the per cent of idle
ness among their membership. Your
committee took all the percentages
for all the months for the six years,
1902 to 1907 inclusive, and found that
the mean of unemployment for the
: six years was 14.3 per cent, while
the same process for the six years
1909 to 1914 inclusive showed unem-
ployment of PIG per cent, an increase
of one-third over the six years pre-

is a fear in the minds of many that
some foreign power may some day at

LABOR INJUNCTIONS

ut has taken many, many years to
establish the principle that the pow
er to produce, the labor power OF man,
is not a commodity in the sense with
which we refer to lumber, bricks, or
any products of mems brains or mus
Gle. The great principle underlying
the labor sections of the Clayton law
declares that no man nor set of men,
no corporate body, has a property
right in mans labor power. 1t is his
to give or withhold his right to dis
pose of upon the most advantageous
terms or to withhold singly or in
company with his fellows. 1t legaliZes

in so far as the federal courts have

"It may be argued that the federal
law is not binding upon state courts

great moral value, nevertheless, in
that it is the voice of the national
conscience made artculate, a new
