FAIR WAGES ORDERED ON U. s.
WORK.

Fair wage scales. reasonable hours
and good working conditions are sug-
gested to arsenal commanders and
manufacturers executing orders for
bureau OF ordnance and quartermas-
ter department of the army in gen.
eral orders made by those depart
ments.
Attention is called to the fact that
in the haste to deliver needed war
materials care must be exercised "lest
the safeguards with which the people
of this country have sought to pro-
tect labor should be unwisely and
unnecessarily broken down."
Industrial history proves that
reasonable hours, fair working con-
ditions and proper wage scale are
essential to high production" said
the statement. During the war
every attempt should be made to
conserve in every possible way all of
our achievements in the way Of So
cial betterment.
"The department wishes to be as
sured that schedules of hours OBJ
viously excessive, or wage scales dis
tinctly unfair, or working conditions
such as should not be tolerated, will
be brought to its attention"
The statement says circumstances
are not such as to render appropriate
the issuance of definite orders on
this subject at this time. and that
mo effort is made to establish or
even to suggest, definite rules of
conduct"
1t is recommended that standards
of wages already established in the
industry and the locality should not

be lowered and that the minimum
wage rates should be made in proper
relation to the cost of living.
The length of the days work, it
is pointed out. should not exceed the
customary hours in the particular
establishment or the standard at
tanned in the industry and in the
community.
Manufacturers are asked to guard
against unnecessary overtime: to
give half holidays on Saturday; to
allow all employees at least one day
of rest in every seven, and to give
them all national holidays.
AS to negotiations between en-
ployer and employees the department
suggests that existing channels
should be preserved and new ones
opened if required as their need is
especially great "in the light Of crit
ical points of controversy which may
arise in a time like the present"
Efforts should be made to restrict
the work Of women to eight hours,
and employment of women on night
work should be prohibited, "as nee
essary protection, morally and phys
ically."
Where women are employed to do
the work heretofore performed by
men, it is suggested that the stan
dard of wages be not lowered and
that the hours be no longer than
were those of the men replaced.
In the case of children, the order
says, the federal child labor law
must be strictly observed and that
both boys and girls under IS years
of age should have the same restric-
tions on their hours as outlined for
women employees.
Existing legal standards to pre-
vent danger from fire, accident or
other hazards and to provide good
light, ventilation, sufficient heat and
proper sanitation, the statement con-
tinues, should be observed as mini
mum requirements.

and social success. The net receipts
were $191. The striking operators

the real majority opinion of the labor
forces.
April congress adopted the war
resolution. March II, wit the i'm
pending crisis in view. leading men
in the union ranks met in Washing
ton, d. c.. and approved a declara-
ton Of Labor's position which had
been prepared by the A. F. of l.. exec
utive committee, and which declara-
ton concluded: 1--WE. with these
ideals of liberty and justice herein
declared, as the indispensable basis
for national policies, offer our serv-
ices to our country in every field Of
activity, to defend, safeguard and
preserve the Republic of the United
States against its enemies whOmso-
ever they may be. and We call upon
our fellow workers and fellow citi-
zens in the holy name of Labor, JUS
tice, Freedom and Humanity to de-
votedly and periodically give like
service"
That declaration has been unre-
servedly approved by the Buffalo
convention.
Monday morning President Wilson
addressed the convention. the invo-
cation being temporarily sidetracked
on the program in order to waste
none of the presidents time. Presi-
dent Gompers introduced the presi-
dent in these words: "By authority
of the Executive Council of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor it was my
great privilege to extend an invita-
ton to the President of the United
States to attend this convention and
to address the officers and delegates
thereof and to convey a message
through this convention to the great
mass of the people of our country and
to the peoples of all the nations Of
the world who aim to achieve free
dom and justice. have the honor to
announce to you that the president
accepted that invitation and is with
US now-this man of destiny, this
man who has arisen to the great &C.
casion and opportunity of our time.
the spokesman of freedom, the inter-
prefer of the aims and the spirit of
our time, the leader Of thought and
action among the men of the nations
of the earth who aspire to freedom"
The presidents address has been
read by millions throughout the
nation. In that address is reiterated
a purpose to deal fairly with the
working people, and certainly it will
not be denied that the president has
well proved his words by deeds.
Numerous stories have been foisted
upon the public as inspired prophecy
of strong opposition to Gompers and
his war policy, which would manifest
itself from the floor of the conven-
ton. Happily these writer's had no
prophetic cunning whatever, and
there was not the least semblance of
a fulfillment of their predictions.
j. G. Brown, from this state, in
troduced a resolution regarding the
judge-made anti-picketing law, as
also a resolution rapping the lumber
barons of Washington for their
greedy, unpatriotic attitude.
Dan McKillop, j. Franklin and
James Duncan. of Seattle, introduced
resolutions and plan for the train
ing of unskilled men for war work.
Other minor resolutions were intro
duced by our state representatives,
indicating that they were alive to
their opportunities.
