NEW YORK LABOR LAWS STAND

Albany, N. Y Governor Whitman
has vetoed the Brown bill, passed by the
last legislature. The act would empow-
er the State industrial commission to
suspend any labor law on the claim of
an employer that such action was neces-
sary because of the war.
The bill was opposed by trade union
lists and sympathizers who insisted that
now was not the time to reduce labor
standards. Reference was made to the
report of the British government on
this question and the complete reversal
of England as compared with its atti-
tude at the beginning of the war, when
workers labored such long hours that
their efficiency was destroyed.
These statements were not overlooked
by Governor Whitman, who said:
eff we are to attain the greatest meas
ure of efficiency in our preparation and
in our prosecution of the war, we must
not permit our people who are en-
gagged in industrial pursuits to become
apprehensive that the standards erected
for their protection will be set aside or
permit heavy burdens to rest on those
least able to bear them"

LAWSON NOT A MURDERER.

Denver, Colo.-The State Supreme
Court has reversed the action of Judge
CRANKY Hillyer in the conviction OF
John X. Lawson, former Executive
Board member of the United Mine
Workers, who was found guilty of mur-
dering a strike guard during the strike
OF coal miners in the southern Colorado
helds, three years ago
he Supreme Court did not remand
the case for new trial and it is believed
no further prosecution will be made
State Attorney General Hubbard ac-
knowledged recently to the Supreme
Court that former Attorney General
Farrar committed an error at the Law
son trial and asked that the verdict be
set aside because of the invalidity OF
the entire proceedings"
Judge Hillyer, who presided at the
trial, is an ex-attorney for coal opera
tors and was appointed Judge OF a speci-
ally created judicial district by Gov
ernor Carlson. Hundreds of miners
were indicted on charges growing out
OF the strike, but after the Lawson con-
viction the Supreme Court ordered that
Judge EIillyer could not preside at
other trials.

WANTS "SASSIETY" TO WORK.

Boston.-Presiden McGrady of the
central labor union is not impressed with
the publicity of patriotic stunts by GER
tain society women.
The trade unionist says young work
ing women are invited to fashionable
homes to do work for the soldiers after
their regular work is done, while the
mistress of the house and her women
connections do nothing but get all the
credit for their patriotism.
Much of this work can be done by
machines, but the society danes demand
that everything be handstitched," says
McGrady, who insists that the health
and strength of working women and
girls should be conserved and that some
plan be devised whereby society women
will be put to work like other folks.

UNIONISM RECOGNIZED.

Oak Creek, Colo-The editor of the
Oak Creek Herald says the industrial

is well founded.

Minors union should be and will be
recognized in its official capacity 1t
may take some time to completely close
the .chasm that separates the two con-
tending forces, but indications are that
the time is at hand for an agreement that
will unite them"

LABOR BACKS FOOD CONTROL
As Way To Draw Prices Down After
Hoover Explains Plans.

Washington.-C Convinced that crea.
| ton OF food administration will bring
prices IN the United States down fully
80 per cent, organized labor will gel
| squarely behind the food control bills
pending in Congress and urge their i'm
mediate enactment.
At conference with labor leaders
ana representatives of the labor group
in Congress, Herbert c. Hoover prom
ised that the food administration, when
organized, would force prices to level
at which the small wage Garner can ex-
lst. Labor representatives told Mr..
Hoover that unless costs fall the earn
er OF moderate wages must get an in
crease in pay or go hungry.
Officials of the American Federation
OF Labor and heads OF the big unions
Will send thousands of letters to local
unions throughout the country directing
members of trades unions to urge on
their Congressman passage of the food
bills before July 1.
The Lever food control bill must be
passed quickly" Samuel Gompers told
the meeting 80 that the pernicious ac-
tivities of food SPECTATORS and pirates
may be checked and consumers NAV paw
reasonable prices. Labor organizations
of the United States will get behind
his bill and push it through.
Some Of the labor leaders expressed
anxiety as to whether the food bills are
drastic enough to accomplish their pur-
pose, but Mr. Hoover assured them that
the measures provide power enough to
reduce prices He asked that labor re-
main patient until the bills are passed
and the food administration is organ
lied. Workmen, he said, had shown
their loyalty by suppressing disputes be-
tween capital and labor and he thought
an exercise of patience in the food stu
alton would show a true patriotism
Figures were quoted at the confer
cnce to show abnormal profits taken by
middle men. The statement was made
hat while flour is selling for around $15
| barrel, it is being manufactured in the
Vest at a cost OF about 81 and could
DC sold at So or SO and still give a good

INJUNCTION CAUSES STRIKE.

Belleville, Ill-After the Orbon Stove

tiers, which included the withdrawal of
injunction proceedings by the company,
these workers again suspended work, as
the injunction has not been dissolved.

HOW TO GO BACK TO THE FARM

Little Rock, Ark-Editor Oury OF
the Union Labor Bulletin is cynical
enough to say that it is easy to shout
'go back to the iarm," but difficult to
do for the man who is penniless and
who sees the bulk OF the vacant land in
the hands of SPECTATORS. The editor
suggests that a sufficient land tax be
levied on vacant land to make it no
longer profitable to the owner to hold
it out OF use, and that the State and
national governments should assist
these would-be, but penniless, farmers,
