STATE INSURANCE
BEST FOR WORKERS

NEW YORK, June THAT ex-
'lusive state insurance funds for
workmen's compensation provide
greater benefits at less cost to in
iured workers and their widows and
children than can be secured from
commercial companies, is the of
fetal testimony now coming from
Canada. A commission appointed
N New Brunswick to investigate
workmen's compensation reports:
at has been found, broadly speak
.ng, that the commissions have
transacted the business at much
less cost than the insurance COM
panies. In the province of On
tario, where of course, the income of
the commission is large, the cost
has only run to about Az or 5 per
cent of the assessment, whereas
the ratio of expense of insurance
companies is probably not less than
30 per cent. 1t is therefore clear
that of the total amount collected
by commission, a much larger
amount is returned to the employee
than is returned by the system at
present in force"

WARNS LOBBYISTS
TO KEEP HANDS OFF

WASHINGTON, June I'm urg-
ing congress to pass new revenue
bill at this session, President Wilson
warned lobbyists to keep hands off
this legislation.
The chief executive said:
There is no danger of deceit now.
An intense and pitiless light beats
upon every man and every action in
this tragic plot of war that is now
upon the scene. If lobbyists hurry
to Washington to attempt to turn
what you do in the matter of taxa
ton to their protection and advan-
tage, the light will beat also upon
them.
/ There is abundant fuel for the
light in the records of the treasury
with regard to profits of every sort.
The profiteering that can not be got
at by the restraints of conscience
and love of country can be got at by
-aXation. There is such profiteer-
.ng now and the information with
~egard to it is available and indis-
putable."

Shall this great nation and its

interstate transportation.
If it were otherwise all manu-
facture intended for interstate ship
ment would be brought under federal
control to the practical exclusion of
the authority of the states"
We cannot see the point in this
statement of the court. Articles
made by child labor are not "all
manufacture, but simply the arti-
cles mentioned in the child labor
law.
The country is now in a battle to
the death against the autocratic
power of the world to the end that
freedom and democracy may live,

for plutocracy which in some states
is growing fatter from the exploita-

THE WAR ON
PROFITEERING
LANDLORDS

In every city where the shipbuild-
ing industry is thriving profiteering
landlords have raised their rents as
high as they can and retain their
tenants, taking advantage of made
quate housing.
Aberdeen and Hoquiam have joined
other shipbuilding towns in protest
against these shylocks. The Aber-
deem Central Labor Council has pro-
tested to Representative johnson and
Senators Poindexter and Jones, who
have promised to use their influence
to choke off the hogs.
Everett may find it necessary to
join this protest against the rob-
berry of the workers and when she
does it is hoped she will make her
kick hard enough to hurt the prof.
teers and strong enough to save the
hard earned dollars of all classes
of workingmen.
The Norway-Pacific Construction
4 Drydock Company made five con-
ditions precedent to the location of
their plant in this town and the
first of them was that the city "give
the company assurance that it's work
men will not be overcharged for
rentals"
We can, therefore, count on the
Norway Pacific to back our efforts
to "choke off" profiteering land
lords.
The following, taken from the
Southwest Washington Labor Press
report of the Aberdeen Central La
Dor Councils proceedings will in
terest The Journals readers:
The matter of excessive rates has
been before the Council several times
in the form of resolutions and let
tiers were ordered written to the
Labor Department and our congress-
men asking for relief. The follow
ing replies have been received and
were read at the Council meeting
The matter should not be let drop as
some landlords continue to boost
rents already too high. Read these
replies over and then write a letter
to your congressman urging further
action.
