TEXTILE STRIKE WON

columbus, Ga.-A strike conducted
by the United Textile Workers has
been won by the employers abandon
ing their anti-union attitude. The
Nght of organization is acknowledged
and committees of the workers will
be recognized. Wage differences have
been referred to the national war la
Dor board.
In an attempt to discourage the
strikers sweeping injunction was
issued against them and United States
soldiers were ordered to this city on
the claim that violence was threaten
ed. The strikers denied this and
maintained friendly relations with the
military forces. After the strike was
settled the workers, in mass meeting
thanked the officers and soldiers fol-
their "uniform kindness and courtesy
shown to the strikers"
The injunction prohibited the strik-
ers from doing anything that could be
construed as an aid to their move
ment. The holding of meetings was
prohibited, and to avoid this writ the
strikers went across the river tc
Phoenix, Alabama, to confer.

DOES UNIONISM PAY?

Seattle. - After recounting the
practical gains secured for the work
ers by the trade union movement, the
Seattle Union Record says:
"But far more important than all
this stands out the fact, overshadow-
ing all others, that unionism has had
the effect to develop the character of
the man.
"Knowing his union is back of him,
he asserts himself instead of, like the
former slave he was, who stands hat
in hand before his master.
"Our membership may be relied
upon. 1t has learned to distinguish
between the bona fde trade union
movement and the personally con-
Quoted excursion to the land of de-
feat"

Strike at Heisey'S
Request for Slight Increase is
Turned Down
The Hard Working Boys at Glass
Factory Walk Out We'd
nesday Morning

The A. H. Heisey's Co.'s factory
closed down Thursday morning for an
indefinite period, pending the settle
ment of a strike for increased wages
inaugurated by the carrying-in boys.
The boys, like everyone else, feel
the pinch caused by the constantly
increasing cost of living, naturally
and Justly believe they are entitled to
a moderate increase. Upon present
ing their request to the company a
compromise was offered, which was
refused, and walkout on Wednes-
day morning resulted.
The carrying-in and carrying-over
boys are now paid $1.OO a turn, two
turns a day; the snapping-up and
sticking-up boys receive $1.25 per
turn, two turns day, making the
wages $500 and $3.50 day respect
lively. In the "big shop" for the same
work, $1.35 a turn or $2.7O per day
is paid.
The increase asked was only 25c a
turn or SOC a day, which considering
the great advance in the actual ne
cessities of life, was very modest
and moderate demand. The counter
proposition made by the company was
an increase of 15c a turn, or 30c g
day. This offer was refused, and as
a satisfactory understanding coulc
not be arrived at, walk out anc
close down followed.
At this writing Thursday no i'm
mediate settlement is in prospect
both parties remaining firm in theil
demands. The sympathy of the gen
eral public is apparently with the
boys, and the justice of their demand
is universally acknowledged.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1918-09-06

This years celebration of Labor
Day was one of the biggest and most
successful ever held in Newark. The
weather was such that no possible
excuse could be advanced for failing
to take part in the parade, conse-
uuently the turn out was unusually
large, nearly every local in the city
being in line. The floats were many
and far above the average in variety
and beauty. Among those which at
tracted universal attention and were
loudly applauded all along the line
were "The Spirit of '76," "The Spirit
of '65," "The Red Cross Nurse and
Wounded Soldier" "Uncle Sam, )" 1.-The
Pilgrims" and "The Goddess Of Liber-
ty" which were prepared and put on
by Jack Cantwell, who had charge OF
this division.

starting, was we'll managed by L. u
Sattler, grand marshal, ably assisted
by his aids and assistant marshals
and moved in the same formation ano
over the line of march given in the

The fifth will come in January or

RAILROADS AND TELEGRAPHS

Senator Reed of Missouri believes
that the Government will continue to
manage the railroads and telegraphs.
He says: "When this war is over,
we shall have a system of railroads
that will be practically one system,
and as a part of that system of trans
portation will be the telephone and
the telegraph, all under Governmental
control and management. The final
result will be, in my opinion, that
these utilities will never go back to
their present owners"

MUST ADVERTISE COSTS

Phoenix, Ariz.-The Arizona state
council of defense has ordered retail
merchants to place the cost price, as
we'll as the selling price, upon all
goods.
= The Arizona Labor Journal says,
this action "bears the ear marks of
honest endeavor to protect the ulti-
mate consumer from unprincipled
profteers who infest every town in
the state, and will meet the approval
of the people in the ordinary walks
of life and those who are not engaged
in profiteering."
