THE1MINIMuM
WAGE SCALE

furnishing the U. S. government es-
pecially since the latter entered the
war as an active participant, every
thing needed practically at cost price,
only charging a few million dollars
now and then for knowing how. Will
they be willing to be satisfied to re-
sumo business on the basis of their
enormous pre- war profits. What a
wrench it must be to have their fat
contracts which some of them were
awarded under rather peculiar cir
cumstances such as agreements about
prices made and awarded by tele-
phone cancelled. Will they not weep
for those good old days when some of
the Bureau officials in Washington as
Senator Johnson of California said,
spend the peoples money like drunk
en- sailors" And then a man like Mr.
Walsh comes along and has the au-
dacity to tell the workers what wages
they should receive if they want to
live in a manner all the word live
stands for in the vocabulary OF
worker and to refuse a wage that
only grants them an existence on the
borderland of starvation.
If the mortality among the popula-
ton OF Nome owing to the epidemic
had not been so great we would make
some suggestions about the wage
scale for the miners OF this district,
but fearing that some of our prom
inent citizens would drop from heart
failure we refrain from doing so at
this time.

The conclusions, Mr. Walsh of the
Federal War Labor Board has thru a
thorough investigation of present day
prices for commodities, arrived at will
come as a great surprise to some of
our captains of industry who are
waiting for a lowering of the present
wage scale, and consequently the
standard of living among the Amer
lean workers.
Mr. Walsh considers seventy two
and one half cents per hour the lew
est wage an American worker can
live on, providing he lives like de-
cent human being, while fourty seven
and one half cents per hour is in his
opinion the irreducible minimum,
when no allowances for comfort or
emergencies are made. In other
words this means a pare subsistence
and nothing more than just enough
to keep body and soul together.
Mr. Walsh does not entertain any
hopes of reduction in the cost of
living which has outstripped even the
wage paid in some of the more high
ly skilled trades in the war industries.
What howl will rise up to high
heaven in the ranks of the poor
downtrodden capitalists, who have
barely eked out precarious exist
ence, when they persue this report,
which very likely will put the notion
of demanding nothing less than
seventy two and one half cents per
hour into the heads of the workers.
But what about the poor employers
who have mostly been engaged in

| The war has wrought in me, as in
pose which finds more sympathy, at
the present time, in the Socialist
party than in any other.
Personal and trivial aims seem base
now Ones heart goes with those
mighty armies. One feels the mystic
power of the cross around which
surge the regiments of death.
The old battle cries no longer rouse
us. The old issue no longer sutfices.
One is ashamed to play the old games
of political expediency and party adj
vantage.
Henceforth l want my life to count
to the utmost in the great task that
lies before us, the task of destroying
the seeds of war and building a new
social order
A handful of people own the bulk
of the nations wealth. The great ma
jority live in poverty or on the verge
of it.
In the populous wards of every city
there are teeming thousands who pant
for breath on summer nights in quar-
tiers that would gag and turn the
stomach of a man used to decent sur
roundings.
Here is one Cincinnati picture: A
woman is standing over cook stove
She has an infant in her arms and
a child crying at her feet. 1t is 100
degrees in the shade. In the same
room with the stove is bed and table
set for supper. This is the only room
they have. There are but two win
dows They face the west. The walls
of the building simmer with the heat.
The afternoon sun beats in relentless
iy. The father has just come home
from work in a nearby slaughter
house. The air is full of stencil of
blood and offal, mingled with the
nauseating ardors of'clothes and bed

What of the sanctites of marriage
| What of the sacredness of home
What of the holiness of motherhood
What of the rights of children? How
can these flowers take root in such a
soil?
This young mother has been caught
in the trap of cruel circumstances.
Look at her and then remember that
another woman in Cincinnati paid
240, 900 dollars for as picture to hang
on her wall
The poverty of one woman and the
opulence of the other flow from the
some cause. 1t is robbery in the name
of law 1t is injustice, avoidable in
excusable, damnable. While such in
justice lasts there will be hate and
social strife and war.
The present order has come to
judgment, This war is a witness
against II. IN IH6 course Oh human
events the hour has come for a new
declaration of independence. Our
fathers, traitors to the Government
which claimed their obedience, boldly
asserted, and defended with their
lives, the principles of political equal
ity. We now assert the principle of
social democracy.
We are bound to admit that all
persons are equally entitled to life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
We are bound to acknowledge that
the present social order disturbes
these blessings grudgingly and with
grave inequalities. 1t is therefore
our right to alter or abolish this Soc
ial order, and to institute another in
its place, laying its foundations on
such principles, and organizing its
powers in such form as to us shall
seem most likely to effect the safety
and happiness of all.

entitled IAN Act OF amend the United
States homestead law in it's applica-9
ton Alaska, and for other pur-
poses, approved July eight. nineteen
hundred and sixteen, is hereby
amended to read as follows:
Section /. That every person who
is qualified under existing laws to
make homestead entry of the public
lands of the United States who has
settled upon or who shall hereafter
settle upon any of the public lands of
the United States situated in the Ter
ritory of Alaska, whether surveyed or
unsurveyed, with the intent of claim
ing the same under the homestead
laws, shall, subject to the provisions
and limitations of TIE Act approved
March third, nineteen hundred and
three chapter one thousand and two,
United States Statutes at Large, page
one thousand and twenty eight, be
entitled to enter one hundred and
sixty acres or less quantity of unap-
propriated public land in sail District
of Alaska, and no more, and former
homestead entry in any other State
or Territory shall not be bar to a
homestead entry in Alaska: Provided,
That nothing herein contained shall
be construed to limit or curtail the
area of any homestead claim hereto
fore lawfully initiated.
Section 2. That if the system of
public surveys has not been extended
over the land included in homestead
entry, the entryman may, after due
compliance with the terms of the
homestead law in the matter of resi-
dence, cultivation, and improvement,
submit to the register and receiver =
showing, as to the compliance, duly
corroborated by two witnesses, and il
such evidence satisfactorily shows
that the homesteader is in a position
to submit acceptable final proof the
surveyor general of the Territory will
be so advis6d and will, not later than
the next succeeding surveying season,
issue proper instructions for the sur
vey of the land so entered, without
expense to the entryman, who may
thereafter submit final proof as in
similar entries of surveyed lands. So
far as practicable, such survey shall
follow the general system of public
land surveys, and the entryman shall
conform his boundries thereto: Pro-

and entry under this Act the lands
in Annette and Pribilof Islands, the
