be willing to have their terms OF
employment and conditions OF la
Dor determined wholly by the en-
ployers, or who would be forced
to work under these conditions
where they were not allowed a
voice, would be servile, the en-
ployer would be master and the
worker would not be a free man
in the full sense OF the term.
The ideals OF brotherhood, edu-
cation, a standard OF living, and
industrial freedom animate trade
unionism and it must be apparent
that to the degree that these ideals
are realized, to that degree the
quality, physical, mental and NOR
al, OF the masses OF our people in
the industries will be determined.
The ideals which have referred
to are those which have steadily
guided labor, which have shown
like a beacon light while labor has
been tossed by the storms which
sweep over our industrial seas.
They are the ideals which have
held trade unionists together dur
ing their darkest hours. They are
the ideals which have inspired
men to devote their lives to the
trade union movement with the
same zeal, enthusiasm, devotion
and self-sacrifce which marks
those who have some higher pur-
pose in life than their personal
comfort and self-interests.
1t is these ideals of trade union
ism animating the army OF organ
lied labor which hold out the
highest prospects for the future
OF our social structure and which
give assurance that trade union
ism is constructive force, accom-
plishing for labor what no other
institution has been able to
achieve.

THE RULING PASSION.

The inquisitive visitor was inspect
ing the local asylum. The kindly at
tendant showed him everything of
interest in the building, and at last
came to a room which seemed to be
unoccupied. Twenty snow-white cots
stood in row.
"This is where the mad chauffeurs
are kept" said the attendant.
"Oh, is it? Where are they now? 2"
"They're here, but you can't see
'em," said the attendant. They're
all under the beds examining the
springs.
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-08-04

No ideal has urged organized
labor forward more energetically
than that of industrial freedom
The trade unionist's ideal is the
full application OF the principles
and mechanisms OF democracy in
the industries and the relationship
OF employer and employe.
Freedom is essential to the
workers development and the
trade unionists can see no prac-
tical way OF establishing industrial
liberty except thru the methods OF
industrial democracy.
Labor's ideal is freedom-free-
dom to work out its own salvation.
Brotherhood and education are es-
sential ideals, but without indus
trial freedom it would be impos-
sible to achieve the ideals of a
steadily progressing standard OF
living.
Since the dark ages there have
been three great struggles for the
ideals OF liberty. One was for re-
ligious freedom-the right to wor-
ship the Almighty according to
the dictates of ones conscience,
and some OF the bloodiest wars
which history records were fought
for liberty of conscience and the
right to worship the Almighty as
men pleased.
But liberty OF conscience was
not enough. While one set OF men
had it within their power to de-
termine the laws under which 9th
ers must live, men could not
develop as they should and tyran-
ny f1ourished. And so other wars
were fought, thrones were over
turned and dynasties passed away
in the struggle which men made
for the right OF political freedom,
the right to have their voices
count in the making OF laws un-
der which they must live.
And while these contests were
being wages, labor passed from
slavery to serfdom, serfdom to
peonage, and peonage to freedom,
but the freedom accorded them i'll
the industries was not that same
quality or degree of freedom
which was theirs in religious and
political activities.
The wage Garner is not indus
trially free, can not be industrial
ly free, so long as employing cap
ital by itself, and without let or
hindrance, determines the terms
of employment and the conditions
of labor. And so the trade union
movement has exerted itself in
the past, has made sacrifices, is
making them today, and will con-
tinue to make them, will continue
to use its efforts without ceasing,
so that there will be established
that condition where government
or regulation in the industries like
the government OF our country
shall exist only by and with the
consent of the governed.
The trade union ideal is equal
ity of rights and opportunity for
employer and the worker alike,
equality before the law, equality
in daily practice, equality of rights
and opportunities and response
bilities at all times and under all
circumstances.
We would hold that any people
who would allow themselves to
be governed by others without
protest, or who would waive their
right to voice in determining the
laws under which they should live
would be servile and unworthy,
and we are equally justified in
holding that workers who would

IDEALS OF THE AMERICAN
LABOR MOVEMENT

Continued from Page /, This Section.)
ing recent years it is that wages
profoundly influence physical and
mental standards.
The vital statistics OF both Eu-
rope and America demonstrate
that the home environment and
the quality OF the food largely
determine the physical and mental
characteristics of the toilers and
determine also the degree of vital
ity with which their children enter
into this world.
A recent federal investigation in
Montclair, New Jersey, indicated
that the average infant mortality
was 81 per thousand, but in homes
where the lower paid workers
lived the rate was I3o per thou
sand, that where the income to
the family was SI2 per week the
death rate was twice as large as
where the income was $23 or
more. And analyzing still further
it was found that where the ia
theirs were business or profession
al men the infant mortality was
but Al per thousand. Among the
higher paid workers the death
rate rose to "a, while in the fami-
lies of the less skilled and low
paid, the infant death rate rose to
IoI.
In residential ward of Johns
town, Pennsylvania, where COM
fort and wealth abound, the in
fant mortality was but so per
thousand, while in the tenement
district where the lower paid
workers were forced to live, the
death rate was 27I per thousand.
The report of the medical Off
Ger of Finsbury, London, for 1906,
shows that the death rate of adults
in the one-rOom tenements was 80
per thousand while in the four
room tenements and upwards, it
was but sixteen and four-tenths
per thousand.
This same report also indicated
that the infant mortality in the
one-room tenements was 2II per
thousand while in the four-room
tenements it was reduced to I2I.
In the inquiry made by the 10
cal government board of London
in 1910, it was found that the
death rate was IS per cent greater
in back to back houses built in
long rows.
Statistics compiled in England
some seven years ago indicated
that the children OF the lower paid
workers at sixteen years of age
weighed nineteen and a half
pounds less and were three and
three-quarter inches lower in stat
ure than the children of the well
to do.
What do wages mean to the
worker? They mean his very life,
the vitalizing quality, of the blood
that flows thru his veins and
nourishes his body, the degree of
vitality with which his children
shall enter this world, they deter
mine his physical and mental well
fare in a predominating manner.
