PRussIc ACID SHELLS
IBy Associated Pressl

The Zurich correspondent of the
Paris Journal states that the rumor
has already been reported. according
to which the German Army is prepar-
ing to use nav weapons, notably
special poison gas shells, including
bydrocyahide or prnssic acid shells.
Il is thought that these rumors are
not altogether devoid Of foundation
because the Swiss military authorities
have asked the well-known chemist
DR.. Drummer, captain in the Swiss
Army, to make report upon the
effect of these shells and the means
Of protection to be- adopted against
them.

what abuses exist will be corrected in
good time and from within the labor
movement.
Labor Unions Help Employer.
Labor unions and collective bar
gaining have. come to stay because
they are a. necessity to modern civili-
zation, useful alike to the employer
and to the working man. In my own
business have found that the organi-
zation of men into unions has helped
me just as much as it has helped the
men. Organized labor makes better
conditions for labor and thereby more
efficient workers and better work. = I
have found that collective bargaining
is very satisfactory. It provides q re-
sponsibility by dealing with II. It
maintains a control Of the men by
themselves, which takes great bur-
den off the employer, and no union
has ever broken contract with me.
Employers of labor are fast learn
ing that unions and collective bargain
ing have come to stay. Labor has be.
come q partner In the business of the
world and must be treated as a part
ner. The world is big enough for all
~ Ns -. 4 s .tZ

not the commodity, but his life. The
price of labor is the welfare of the
nation. The price Of labor is tho
price of men, the well-being of chill
dren and the honor Of women-the
price of labor is the price of life, of
liberty, and of happiness.
These things a man must UNDER
stand If he is to deal with labor either
as an employer, as a citizen or as a
public official. Labor has had a. long,
hard, bitter struggle for better condi-
tons. It has had to fight every inch
of the way. It has taken and given
hard blows in the effort, but every
trench that labor has won in this long
struggle has been gained, not by VOL
untary concessions from employers,
but by organization. Organization has
been the means by which 1t has es-
tablished shorter working day, an
.eight-hour day, better wages and a
higher standard Of living for the whole
working population.
Must Meet Labor Half Way.
Do the opponents Of collective
bargaining realize the extent Of
their purpose? Do they know that
the abolition Of collective. bargain
ing would mean the breaking up Of
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1917-07-28

this campaign is not an attack on or
ganized labor. Most of tho oppon-
ents Of organized labor declare that
they do not wish to destroy the
unions; they would permit the unions
to exist if they confined themselves
to functions Of benevolent societies,
visiting the sick and bury the dead.
But they must not attempt to deal
With the wages or conditions of en-
ployment or interfere with the inalien-
able right of every man to work
whether he belongs to a union or not.
According to this school of thought
every man has an inalienable right to
work, but let any man seeking en-
ployment go into any shop or fac
tory or bank and, relying upon his in
alienable right to work, demand a
job. He will soon find that his in
alienab1e right to work is nothing but
a group Of words and that about tho
only inalienable right is the right to
starve. We need in this community
more men Of vision and insight-men
who can think In terms of human
right as well, as in terms Of property
Only such men can prevent those
clashes between capital and labor
which are, bred Of mutual misunder-

organized labor? Do they know that
they are striking at the heart of the
whole world labor movement, and do
they realize that organized labor will
fight with resolution and desperation
Of men who are fighting for their
lives, for their families and for all that
organized labor has so hardly won and
holds so dear? Have not the adver-
saries Of organized labor sufficient
knowledge of history and human ma
ture to tell them that what capital
and organized society have most to
fear Is not the victories but the de-
feats Of labor? The safety Of property
and Of society, the preservation of
law and order, lie in meeting labor at
least half way. Cooperation is the
characteristic Of our modern indus
trial system. It is not an answer to
the argument in favor of the organiza-
tion of labor to point out abuses toler-
ated or injustice done here and there
by labor unions. No human institu-
tlon 1s perfect. but organized labor as
1t becomes more powerful becomes at
the same time more far-seeing and ac-
Quires greater sense Of responsible
ity. What miatal<A4, arA r~.a4 -~a

CHARGE AGAINST
LAWSON DROPPED
About Fifty Cases Growing Out
Of Miners Strike Also
Quashed.

TRINIDAD, COL, July 26.-The dis
trict court has dismissed the charra
against John r: Lawson that he mur-
oered mine guard during the 1913-14
miners strike in the southern Colo
RADIO fields.
The proceedings were quashed at
the request Of State Attorney Cen
eral Hubbard, who said:
This prosecution arose out Of dis
turbed industrial conditions, which,
happily. now have passed A revival
OF these cases would tend needlessly
T. STIR again TO- life; a bitter; and vim
dietfve fee1fng." = -
Nearly half a hundred other cases
were also dismissed, and it is predict
ed that several pending cases will be
treated likewise thus marking off the
court docket all charges growing out
OF the miners strike.
Lawson was tried before CRANKY
Hillyer, former attorney for the coal
operators, who was appointed judge
b, In district created by the legislature
which was openly charged at that time
with being dominated by the opera
tors. Under these conditions Lawson
was convicted of murder and SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment. His case
was remanded for retrial by the state
supreme court and Judge Hillyer: or
dered not to preside at other trials of
strikers.

took office he did not adopt the per-
secution policy of his predecessor.

standing. The government has been
eager to help business but slow to
help women, children and labor. For
generations we were concerned with
problems Of wealth all the while, not
seeing that we ought to be concerned
with the problems Of poverty. Capital
and labor cannot understand each
other fully until they think in the
same terms, and it is well for the op-
ponents Of labor to think in terms of
humanity.
Labor II Mans Life.
Labor thinks in terms Of living.
When a union fixes a wage at IS a
day it has got in mind, not 50 much
the $500 as $500 worth of living, and
when $500 worth no longer main
tain that standard of living, the
union feels that 1t Is really no longer
getting its due. OF course, it is easy
to argue against this plan for a wage
scale, but men do not live on techni-
calities, and cannot feed on words.
You cannot discuss labor or the price
of labor in tho jargon Of the lower
grades on the. exchange. The price
Of labor Is something entirely differ
ent from the price Of barrels or ships.

ton. I believe in the organization Of
labor-in organized union labor. It
is my profound conviction that the
union of labor makes for the moral
uplift Of the country as whole, and
places the prosperity of all on a firm
basis. I believe collective bargaining
is the essence Of commercial progress.
1t protects the laborer and gives solid
ity to the trade which capital is able
to make with labor. I do not believe
that there is a problem of human ex-
istence that cannot be solved by rea-
son and negotiation when men ap-
proach each other in spirit Of fair
dealing.
