Land TaXation-Tax idle land and
land held for speculation for the pur-
pose of placing "a larger share of the
burden of taxation on monopolistic
wealth at its chief source"
State Land Colonization-To give
"to those of our soldiers who so de-
sire an opportunity of gaining a di-
rect economic interest in the soil they
have defended with their lives"
Public Ownership-"We insist upon
public ownership of public utilities and
all properties incidental to their op-

federal government of the railroads,
express and telegraph companies"
Manning our Merchant Marine
"The merchant and naval seamen who
served our country in time of war
who voluntarily manned our ships
bound for submarine-infested waters
must be given the same protection
against competition with cheap Orien-
tai labor as is given to the workers
ashore. The seamen's act, instead of
weakened, should be strengthened to
the end that our young men who have
recently responded to the call of the
sea will be encouraged to remain
there and make it their life wrok."
Labor RepresentationAAll appoint
i've state commissions should include
representatives of labor, because, it
is stated, 'the issues drawn by the
aftermath of war make il more and
mole apparent that labor cannot, with
assurance, look for the best protec-
tion of its interests in matters of gov
ernment to any group outside itself.
Progressive State Government
1--WE insist that there shall be no cur
tailment in the progressive and hu-
manitarian work of our state govern
nient. Certain reactionary forces, un-
der the guise of economy, are right
now attempting to muddle and be-
cloud this issue. But they must not
be permitted to make thrift and econ
omy slogan for reaction. We want
still better laws for the protection OF.
the workers. To be specific, we de-
mand the enactment of every measure
enumerated in the platform of the
California Union of Producers and
Consumers"
The union referred to is an alliance
of the California State Federation of
Labor, the Farmers Educational and
Cooperative Union and the Pacific
Cooperative League.
The economic and political platform
of this alliance includes tax on idle
land, public ownership, cooperative
organizations, :. absent voters law,
farmer and labor representation on
the state boards and commissions,
anti-ipjunctionr law, state health in
surance, county experiment stations
for the development of horticulture
and agriculture, free public employ
ment bureaus, development of irriga-
ton systems and constitutional sane
ton for safety laws.

CALIFORNIA RECONSTRUCTION PLAN
OFFERS SUGGESTIONS TO UNION MEN
The California
Ideas for the Guidance of Organized Labor
Effect During the Coming Year Real
Test Is Just Now Beginning.

| The reconstruction committee Gre
ated by the last convention of the
California State Federation of Labor
has made its report and has forward
ed copies of same to affiliates Among
the first declarations is the following
"Our real test is just now begin
ming, and it will be the most momen-
tous that our state and nation has
ever faced. The coming of peace at
this time gives us a preponderant
share of the power and prestige of
victory while it saves US from paying
anything like the frightful costs that
have been borne by other belligerents.
| All of our industries have been speed
ed up and greatly strengthened; !;
wastes and inefficiencies have been
eliminated; our productive capacity
has been enormously increased. Cali
fornia and the other Pacific coast
states now lead the world in the pro-
duction of tonnage. Our resources
of labor and utilized resources have
been increased while those of the
other countries have been diminished
We have practically everything that
the world needs, and we alone among
all the industrial nations seem to be
in position to export in vast quanti-
ties the materials needed for recon-
struction.
For this reason the California
State Federation of Labor can see no
possible excuse for the cry that wages
shall be reduced to the pre-war stand
ard or that working hours shall be
heightened"
The program contains these recon-
mendations:
Demobilization-"We welcome and
invite to our councils representatives
of the returned soldiers and sailors
as soon as they are in position to
take up matters of mutual interest"
1t is suggested that the government
"plan carefully in the work attendant
upon the rehabilitation of these great
forces and the effect thereof upon the
nations industries, to the end that
panic shall not prevail"
Organizing the Unorganized-"W
cannot too strongly urge the necessity
of carrying on this work with greater
energy than ever before"
Shorter Work Day-A demand for
a work day not exceeding eight hours
is made, with further reduction in
any industry where unemployment ex-
lists "or where conditions are such that
even eight hours of work tends to
exhaust and devitalize those en-
ployed."
Cooperative Organizations-"Th
failure of sporadic and Indifferent eff
forts at cooperative organization
should not be permitted to outweigh
the great advantages inherent in CO.
operation"
Workers are advised to use their
Liberty bonds and war savings stamps
as basis of credit in the formation
Of these cooperative enterprises.

WOMEN LAUNDRY WORKERS AWARDED
MINIMUM WAGE OF $l1 PER WEEK BY
THE NATIONAL WAR LABOR BOARD

A minimum wage of S11 per week
for women laundry workers, and the
renewal of the existing closed shop
agreement between employers and en-
ployes are decreed by the national war
labor board, in an award which is
made public this week. The board
states in the award that the examiner
to be appointed to, administer the
award should be preferably woman.
The board specifies that the $11
weekly minimum shall apply to white
and colored women alike, the testi-
mony in the case having shown that
colored women were being paid so
cents to So per week less than the
white women, altho the colored women
do the heaviest and most laborious
work, and Notwithstanding the exist
ence of a minimum wage law with a
fixed minimum.
The case upon which this decision
was rendered was brought before the
national war labor board by the Laun-
dry Workers Union of Little Rock,
Ark, the membership of which is rs
per cent women. The case involved
about 300 women.
Denver labor bulletin., 1918-12-07

The wage of $11 per week for the
women workers represents an increase
of $3.50 per week over the minimum
fixed by the Arkansas minimum wage
law number of years ago and still
in effect. A 40 per cent increase in
the cost of living in Little Rock in that
period was testified to by the state
commissioner of labors
"The work in laundries is of pc
culiarly unpleasant kind" reads the
award, and inevitably entails expos
ure to considerable heat and discom-
fort. 1t should therefore be reason
ably well paid for"
The testimony in this case showed
that while the laundry owners were
charging their customers 80 per cent
more than in 1915, and altho the wom-
en- were working at new type of bolt
iron press which turns out one and a
half to two times the work and re-
quires double body effort as compared
with the former machinery, the wages
paid up to the time Of the award were
the same the women received three
years ago.

one Of the interesting feature Of
the parade was the fact that the
French flag carried in it has a peculiar
history, The flag was made by Madam
Mousset, wife Of Lieut. Mosset of the
French Mission Madam Mousset was
a prisoner in Fhe hands of the Ger
mans during the first year of the war
for a period of ten months During
the entire time of her Imprisonment
the flag was in her possession, but she
was able to hide it. She escaped and
carried the flag on her person through
the devastated regions of France and
Belgium, A fortnight before her hus-
band received his first furlough after
over a year at the front she arrived
at Doulai, France After another year
and half at the front, Lieut., Mousset
was sent to America as an instructor
and brought the flag with him.

That the Camp Hancock Press Club
