Townley's |. w. w. Laborers
Declare $ll.45 Is Right Pay
For Work In Harvest Fields
Official Organ Publishes Statement From One of Agi-
tators-Say Men Ought to be Fed at Family Table
This is the Gang Townley Lined Up With.

To-day we find that the farmers are
adverse to paying ven SIS during the
harvest. In other words, the farmer
wants $6.45 more profit out of his
worker h when grain was worth
so cents a bushel.
"1n addition to this, the harvest
hand does not enjoy the c~onveniences
spite the fact that he does far more
owing to the improved modern ma
chinery used in the harvest fields.
machinery cannot alone harvest
the wheat.
Wheat cannot harvest itself.
Human labor must be applied to
the wheat before it is worth anything
to society.
Then why should not the harvest
hand be entitled to a raise in wages
proportionate to the increased price
OF wheat.
1.-THE farmer lodges this issue by
saying-'there is more help than for
merly-but if such is the case, why
Is the farmer so strenuously advocat-
ing the employment Of school boys in
the harvest fields and for general
farm work? (.
$50 Much Graft"
THE farmers cultivation. per acre.
costs him less than formerly.
DEUS LOT the harvest n would
not cost much more than in former
times, so we find that this year in the
harvest field the difference between
what the farmers will be forced to
pay by the workers organized in the
Agricultural Workers organization,
and $11.45 will be so much graft for
the farmer.
ut is useless for the farmers to use
the argument that land is worth
more an acre. as and is worth noth-
Ing except as human labor is applied
to 1t, and in the harvest fields that
human labor is largely supplied by
the harvest worker.
What applies to the wheat raisers
of Kansas n the Dakotas, applies
far more to those who raise corn IA
Illinois. Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska ana
elsewhere. Corn has increased In
value from Is cents a bushel to $3.50
q bushel-1,O 900 per cent.
"The wage Of the farm hand. either
by the day. month or year, has NOT
kept pace with anything produced on
the farm. unless 1t be air or water.
This proves there is no connection
between h value Of the product pro.
Lduced by the worker in industry. ana

ceives in the shape Of wages.

An interesting contribution to the
discussion anent farm labor costs !.
made by The Industrial Worker
official organ of the Agricultural
Workers union. a unit of the Indus.
trial Workers OF the World, with
which Organization President A. c
Townley of the NonparNsan league
has announced the formation Of a la
Dor pact.
That the Industrial Workers of.the
World are entitled to $11.45 a day is
spreading among members.
President Townley. of the Nonpar-
tisan league. has just announced that
the committee representing the
league. made up of ]. N. Hagan. F. B.
Wood and N. E. Whipple, had reached
an agreement with a like committee
representing the Industrial Workers
Of the World, such agreement cover
ing hours Of labor. conditions Of en-
ployment, and wages. The wage fea-
ture has not been made public.
As a means OF giving more binding
effect to the agreement, President
Townley has called meetings Of league
members to be held at .Minot July II:
at Valley City July r.; Bismarck, July
13, and Devils Lake, July Il.
According to the announcement so
far made by President Townley. the
agreement provides that farmers who
hire I. w. w. members. will be pro-
tected against strikes, and will be
supplied with labor.
The Industrial Worker article de-
clard $11.45 a day the wage due to
farm laborers, based on the present
price Of wheat, was writtn by J.. A.

opening of the annual campaign in
the wheat producing states Of the
northwest. It follows:
when wheat was selling at so
Gems a bushel a number Of years ago.
the harvest hands were being paid
$3.50 and $500 a day. At $3.50 a day,
the harvest hand could buy four and
one-sixth bushels with his DAYS wag-
es.
Those were the days when the
farmer did not ride in automobiles: a
pillow horse, hitched to a lumber wag-
on. was then good enough for him.
but ven in those days the farmer
could AFFORD to provide his harvest
hands with good beds and he fed
them 1T the family table.
To-day, the farmer kets 42.75 q
