Declares He Feels 1t His Duty To Say
A Good Word For Medicine That
Has Helped Him So Much.

Tanlac has certainly helped me,

Hon c. W. Maneum of Atlanta, ex-
sheriff of Fulton county.

it to a great many people. l know

les who have bought it on my say

been in a nervous, WOrn-Out, run
down condition. My stomach was
upset most of the time, and | di-
gested my food poorly. Most al
ways after eating | would have a
full, uncomfortable feeling that
would last for several hours.
After taking the second bottle of
Tanlac the fullness and all disagree
able symptoms disappeared, and
my condition is now that of a we'll
man. | now eat heartily without
any bad after effects, and | sleep
well at night.
"Tanlac seemed to be just what |
needed to put my system in shape,
and has toned me right up. Under
the circumstances | think it per-
fectly natural for me to say a good
word for it and recommend it to
my friends"
Among the large number of
prominent men in public life in the
South who have recently given Tan
lac their unqualified endorsement
for the specific aid to them are Hon.
Mckenzie Moss, judge of the Eighth
Kentucky judicial district; Hon.

perintendent of printing; Col. John
B. Gaines, editor and publisher of
the Bowling Green Daily News;
George W. Hinton, former secretary
of the Warren County Equity

Among those prominent in COM

WOMEN AND WAR SERVICE
By FLORENCE c. THORNE.

Our of restriction and repression
into opportunity, is the meaning of the
war to thousands of women. A devel-
opment that was taking place slowly
now becomes conspicuous when accel-
Grated by the driving necessities of
war In those countries where social
organization has been adjusted to meet
war needs and purposes, there is no
room for the parasitic, and I'll the
Conspicuous consumption" class.
Common danger is a great leveling
force that has swept aside the sham
and the useless-there is no time or
place for the idler or the doer of use
less work. Every individual must do
his bit of real work and assume his
share of responsibility-women and
men share alike the common danger
and need. Each must work where his
or her individual service will count
most. In returning to more primitive
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-08-04

conditions where men must fight and
women must work, much of the arti-
ficiality of life disappears.
The fact that women are going out
to do the worlds work together with
men is not in itself an undesirable de-
velopment. Work is a means of self
expression and development for women
as well as men. Work for pay means
economic independence which is the
only basis for real freedom of any
kind. Freedom in the economic world
gives women opportunity to choose
their own lives, and protects them
from being forced into marriage for
economic reasons.
The real problem that confronts us
at our entrance into the war is not to
resist the entrance of women into in
dustry but so to direct and control the
movement that women will be bene-
fitted and that their men fellow-work-

MODERN WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION

In the rapid spread Of workmen's
compensation in this country the fact
is often overlooked that many of the
laws adopted are far less comprehen-
sive and satisfactory than their titles
would indicate. Because thirty-five
states and territories, with some rs
per cent of the employed population,
have adopted such laws it is frequently
assumed that that proportion of the
wage workers of the country are now
fully and properly insured against the
loss and suffering resulting from in
dustrial accidents. That this is not
true is emphasized in bulletin No. 203
of the bureau of labor statistics of the
United States department of labor,
entitled "Workmen's Compensation in
the United States and Foreign Coun-
tries"
The bulletin presents a detailed
comparison of the principal features
of the various state compensation
laws. The comparison brings out most
striking differences. particularly as re-
CARDS the proportion of workers COW
cred and the scale of compensation
benefits. No state compensation act
covers all workmen. In the first place
most of the acts are elective" EN-
ployers who do not accept are penal
in spite of this there are always a
number who refuse to elect The ma
jority of these are employers who are
worth nothing, consequently from
whom il is impossible to collect on
judgments awarded under employers
liability acts. In the second place, all
of the acts purposely exclude certain
classes of employees. Thus. agricul-
tural workers, domestic servants and
casual employees are almost every
where excluded Also there is an i'm
portant group of acts which apply only
to list of employments declared to be
especially hazardous, altho in prac-
tice they may be no more hazardous
than others not included. Again,
considerable number of acts do not
apply to employers having less than
certain number of employees. the min
imum being in one case as high as
eleven.
The result of these limitations and
exclusions is to restrict the benefits of
compensation very often to only a
rather small fraction of the total num-
Der of workers. The bulletin makes a
rough estimate of the proportion COW
cred in each state, the estimate being
based on the liberal and incorrect as
sumption that election has been made
by all employers affected in states
having elective laws. In only two in
stances. New Jersey and Hawaii, do
the acts include at best as many as
30 per cent of the total workers and
only seven states cover so per cent or
over. One covers less than 20 per
cent and nine less than so per cent.
Similarly striking are the differences
between the several acts as regards
the benefits paid in case of injury. A
lN., tod
Thus, in the case of fatal injury
occurring in the state of Oregon the
widow and children may receive in
total as much as SlS,4S0, whereas in
Vermont the maximum would be
81 $50 and under the Oklahoma act no
benefits at all are paid in case of death.
For loss of hand the Alaska act may
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-08-04
DEMAND THE LABEL.

Members of trade union should
demand the label, shop and work
ing card of every. other union
when they are spending their un-
ion-earned money, ever having in
mind that il we expect our em-
ployers to employ us as union men,
whenever we spend any money we,
too, should employ union labor by
insisting on union made goods.
II you are opposed to employers
of child labor, prison labor, as
well as other interests that are
opposing organizations of labor,
the only means of combating them
is in discouraging their sale. They
in no instance bear the union label.
