French Draft of Minimum Standards
Adopted-Reso'utions Now Before
Various International Oruaniza-
tions of Labor for Ex-
preston of Opinion.

A labor conference of delegates rep
resenting the trade union federations
of England, Italy, Belgium and France,
was held at Leeds, England, July /,
1916. 1t was called as the result of
a preliminary conference of delegates
representing these declarations, held
in Paris, May /, 1916, which paved
the way for its work by calling upon
the French Federation (Confedera-
ton Generate du TravaiD to draft a
series Of minimum labor standards
which it was desired to incorporate in
the final peace treaties which would
terminate the war. At the Leeds con-
ference the French draft of minimum
standards was modified and adopted.
1t should be noted that these resolu-
tions are now before the various in
ternational unions and federations af-
filiated with the International organi-
cation of labor, that they may give
expression to their attitude toward
them.
The conference declared that the
peace treaty which will terminate the
present war and will give to the ma
tions political and economic independ-
ence should also insure to the work
ing class of all countries a minimum
of guarantees of moral as we'll as of
material kind concerning the right of
coalition, emigration, social insurance,
hours of labor, hygiene, and protec-
tion of labor, in order to secure them
against the attacks of international
capitalistic competition. These guar
antees must be based upon the fol-
lowing principles:
RIGHT TO WORK; RIGHT OF CO.
ALITION. Every workman, no mat
ter to which nationality he may be-
long, ought to have the right to work
wherever he can find employment.
Every workman, wherever he is
employed, should enjoy all the trade
union rights which the native work
man enjoys, particularly the right to
participate in the administration of
his union. .....
No workman should be expelled on
account of his trade unionist activ-
tiles. No alien workman should be
paid a lower rate of wages than the
normal or prevailing rates of wages,
or be made to work under worse con-
Editions than those prevailing in the
tsame locality or district for workers
Of the same grade or the same
speciality.
EMIGRATION AND EMANCIPATION.
The migration of workmen shall be
organized and based on national Ia
Dor exchanges.
There should be in every country a
special commission on emigration and
immigration, consisting of represen-
tatives of the government and of the
organizations of employers and work
ers of the country.

A Perverted Version Of an Old Law

as guardian and Administrative of the
estate of a child bereaved of father
and not yet Of age. 1t says: III
mother sell or barter the heritage of
her child, according to the advice of
friends, the child shall have the free
choice, when it comes to age, to rat
ify or disclaim the sale or exchange"
This shall be the case except when
the mother sold her child's heritage
for one of the following three urgent
reasons: The first of these is the alb
duction of the child by slavers; the
second, famine consequent to crop
failure, and the third, which we give
verbatim: "If the child is stark naked
and without roof and the night Of
dark fog comes on and cold winter
glitters into the courtyard, SO that
every man seeks his dwelling and
house, and his warm hearth, and
the wild beast conceals himself in his
cave and in the hollow tree in order
to save and preserve his life; then
cries the infant and walls and points
to it's naked limbs, and laments that
his father, who should help it and
shield it against hunger and cold,
is now so deep and dark in the cold
earth, beneath the four oak planks,
riveted with four stout nails. Then
the mother of the minor child may
barter or sell the heritage of the child
for she is in duty bound TO shield it
against cold and hunger"
Art as prostituted by so many
auack reformers, who know no other
remedy than dissolution and destruc
ton, is sad spectacle indeed. And
when art is coupled to anarchic lit
erary efforts the combination is az
piteable as it is horrid.

international LABOR
after The WORLD war

The recruiting of workmen in a
foreign country should only be per-
nitted if the commissions of the in
terested countries, whose duty it is
to examine into the question as to
whether the demand for and the ex-
tent of such a recruiting really cor
respond with the needs of an in
dustry or a district, and whether the
labor contracts are in full conformity
with the aforementioned conditions
of labor and the rate of wages, have
favorably reported.
The recruiting emigrants should be
under the control of the labor organi-
cations of the country of emigration.
The execution of the labor con-
tracts should be under the control OF
the labor organizations of the country
Of immigration.
SOCIAL INSURANCE (0 In case
Of accidents, workmen and their rela-
tives, without distinction of national
ity and domicile, shall be legally en-
titled to the same compensation as
the native Workmen.
(b) Countries which have not yet
enacted insurance laws regarding
sickness, invalidity, old age, and un-
employment, should pledge them
selves to do so within the shortest
period.
(c) Pending the Introduction Of
sickness, insurance, diseases caused
by the exercise of trade should be
regarded as accidents entitled to COM
pensation.
LIMITATION OF HOURS OF LA
BOR. Children under II years of age
should not be permitted to leave
school and engaged as wage work
ers in industrial, commercial and ag-
ricultural labor.
Female persons and juveniles under
18 years of age shall be prohibited
from working at night work or in
factories of continuous operation.
A. weekly rest, i.e., complete cessa'
! tian Of work, of one and half days
shall be compulsory. 1t shall be fixed
for Sundays and Saturday afternoons
unless LuOIC cAlSL OACCJIlOudl ICSuIt1
tions.
For all workers a days work must
not exceed ten hours. In mines, fac
tories, of continuous operation, and
unhealthy Industries the maximum
working day shall be eight hours.
AN INTERNATIONAL COMMITS
SION for the purpose of supervising
the application of the laws concern
ing social insurance, labor migra
tons, hours of labor, hygiene and &C
cident prevention. This commission
! shall be instructed to report upon all
questions and grievances submitted
On the demand of one of the par
ties, any point of conflict shall be
submitted to an international court
of arbitration.
It shall likewise be the duty Of this
commission to help on the prepara
tions for the organization of future
conferences which the governments
of the various countries may convoke
for the purpose of amending and de-
veloping labor legislation.

The Mother Could Not Sell Her Child,
but Its Heritage.

Appended, as though for explana-
ton, to very significant drawing of
Jeanne Stevens, the July number Of
the Masses" publishes the following
supposed old-Frisian law:
"When the child is as naked as a
worm and without roof; when the
black fog and the cold winter reach
her 90; then may the mother sell
her child"
No source if indicated, and we are
led to question the possibility of prov
ing the authenticity of the quotation.
The only source from which it might
be taken is the common law of the
Frisians, who were, as Tacitus de-
scribes them "populus inter Germanos
nobillssimus, the noblest race
among the Germans, and those laws
originated after the conversion of this
people to Christianity. 1t follows
that it is out of the question that the
distress of the mother could give her
the right to sell her child. We be-
lieve ourselves to be justified, there
fore, in asserting that the quotation
in question is an Interpretation falsely
imputed to the original Frisian and
traceable to an ignorance of that old
and now almost extinct tongue. For
the parts of the Frisian laws we
have at hand contain nothing of the
kind. There is, however, a passage
in many ways similar to the quota
tion, but which leads to quite diff.
ferent conclusion.
The second of the "a Frisian laws
deals with the relations of mother
