In Favor of Collective Bargaining

Miss Goldmark read from a number
Of publications, including reports of the
Secretary of Labor. favoring collective
bargaining on the part of wage earn
ers. 1t was pointed out that If the
wage Garner, acting alone, refuses to
accept terms of the employer it fire.
Quently ends in bankruptcy and penury
for the employe. Collective bargaining,
on the other hand, has resulted favor
ably both for the employers and the
employees. and has brought about more
ready settlement of controversies.
Under public ownership the possibility
OF collective understanding would be
most easy. Miss Goldmark said The
public is interested in all the facts in
regard to the problems arising in pub
lie utilities in the District. she con-
unued, and some means should be found
to make all facts public, possibly the
public utilities commission, or if that
was TOO busy. some allied organization.
The men must not be shackled by the
Individual contract, said Miss Cold
mark She commended that, with full
be eliminated. Miss Goldmark opposed
compulsory arbitration, or limiting the
right to strike. Questions by Senator
Jones brought out the fact that Miss
Goldmark opposed having any law at
this time preventing the men from
striking pending any investigation.
What suggestion have you by which
the wages Of street railway employees
can De ralsed?' asked Senator Jones.
Wages must be made living wage
and 1t cannot be made by the company
under present conditions-fares must be
increased" replied Miss Goldmark. She
said that the Consumers League would
favor the increase in fares if it was
shown TO be necessary to pay the men
adequately.
w. Mex. Clayton of the Federation
OF Citizens Associations asked Miss Gold
MARI If she would have a separate OF
different public utilities commission from
the present commission.

TEN GERMAN RAIDERS
BELIEVED DESTROYED
British Gratified Over Success in
Combating Teutonic Bomb
Droppers.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, June THE morning pa
pers today display with qualification
the news of the toll exacted from the
German air raiders, which they re-
mark was a terrible price to pay for
raid which effected virtually nothing
of military importance.
1t is generally assumed that ten Ger
of the commentators express the belief
Is almost enough to cause the Germans
to cease repetitions of their airplane
raids. The damage inflicted on the
raiders. taken in connection with the
reduction in sinkings Of vessels by
submarines and naval and atrplane at
tacks on enemy bases in Belgium has
instilled a spirit of elation in the ed
itorials and news columns generally. .
The official reports leave 1t still not
quite certain whether eight or ten Ger
man machines were actually lost. There
is no reason to doubt, however, that
the losses will reach eight. and this
proof of the alertness and efficiency OF
the British airmen and anti-aircraft de-
vices has brought satisfaction to the
British public almost equalling the
qualification felt at the first news that
"a Zeppelin raider had been destroyed
and will do much to relieve the anxiety
which undoubtedly existed as result
of the discovery that the Germans no
longer were dependent upon darkness
and the absence of moon for raids
but could come in daylight with COM
parative impunity.
Another feature of the latest raid az
fording public satisfaction is the way
in which the government has met crftt-
ciSms regarding delay in issuing OFF,
cial reports of air raids. On this oc-
casion the first report was issued while
the raid was actually in progress and
was followed by other reports with
clearer indications of the scene Of the
raid and details Of the damage done.

Criticises Hours of Work.

How are you going to rates them?"
asked Senator Jones. The witness re-
piled that the question was not sus-
ceptible of categorical answer. The
witness said that the seven-day sched-
ule, in effect, was not desirable and
that the spread" of the hours of serv-
ice was onerous. She said that even
with eight hours of rest. the time con-
sumed in working and awaiting work
was on the whole, too long to give
operatives recreation at home.
1--WE regard the individual contract,
now in use in Indianapolis, New York
and Washington, as the most signifl-
cant attack on collective bargaining
that has yet been made" said Miss
Goldmark.
Answering questions by Senator
King, Miss Goldmark said that her or
ganization was not on record as insist
ing on the closed shop. She contended
that the individual contract, however,
tended to bottle up" controversies be-
tween the men and the company.

LEADERS

The Negro must learn to fol
low leadership. He must learn
to present a solid front. With
out this there is but little if any
progress. We must admit that
wrangling and pickering among
ourselves have been some of the
greatest drawbacks and stumb-
ling blocks to our advancement.
No enemy on the outside could do
us more harm than this DISPOSE
ton on our part to fuss about
leadership and (what is worse
the most ignorant and most un-
prepared are the ones who want
to lead and rule. The day of
self-appointed leaders has passed
and one to lead in this day and
time must have accomplished
something substantial, must have
proven their distinction to the
title by possessing those quail
ties that fit one for the exalted
position. A leader must be one
who delights to render service
who knows and practices the
GOLDEN RULE.
