Morning workers are badly needed
Many women find it impossible to
come in the morning, consequently the
rlachines and sewing tagIes are idle

every woman in Guthrie who can Dos !

work Next week especially with the
clock turned one hour ahead it ought
to be possible for women to serve in

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Shirt Factory Controversy.

Editor, Barre Daily Times: 1t was
with mingled feelings of surprise and re-
| greet that | read the article in your yes
terdays issue signed by nearly all the
officers and operatives of the lately
formed organization of garment workers,
who are mostly employed by the Tauber-
| Ryttenberg company. In goodly num-
Der of years experience one gets Injured
to what is termed the double cross" and
| if it is so that the operatives have seen
the new light, so to speak, they must
have changed their minds mighty sud
denly. Be that as it may, the fact re-
mains undisputed that these girls told
me land others were there to hear them
the wages they received. This can be
verified by members of the Board of
Trade as well as by members of the Cen
trail Labor union OF Barre and vicinity.
Up till now the girls do not dispute the
price list as it appeared in your Saturday
issue with one single exception, and that
was on the part called yoking, which,
owing to some extra names being sewed
on, the price has been raised to six cents
per dozen, but on all the government
work it was as stated, two cents per
dozen, no name being appended thereon,
eight dollars a week viii cover the old
est employees average weekly pay sheet
for the last two months. Twelve dollars
has been paid to an operative to my
knowledge, but it was paid on the de-
mand of city attorney. This controver-
sy was not sought by the union men of
Barre or me personally, but was nat |
urally forced upon us by a signed state |
4 Ia,
issue of the Barre Daily Times, which
stated that he had not heard of the new
union, neither did he know of any in /
crease of wages. This was a direct chal-
lenge to those who were responsible for 4
helping the girls to organize and it would |
have been the height of folly to have ig-
nored the same And now, 10. all of
sudden the Tauber- Ryttenberg company
reduces the working hours TO 80 week
(which will inevitably mean reduced
earning power on the present scale Of
prices and promises are made that more
wages are in sight. Somehow or other
we notice the changes, and proposed
changes, did not occur until such time
as the Central Labor union Of Barre and
vicinity had practically succeeded in
forming a union of the garment workers
And here let me state that the present
garment workers union of Barre is not
confined to any particular garment fac

They have nothing to do with the gar

entirely useless to bring this into the

At the same time it has been my ex-
perience for the past 27 years as trade
unionist, that il / want anything in the

state to your readers that if the parents
of over 100 girls who have come and
gone from this factory since its incep-
ton in Barre wanted to unfold tale
they would more quickly realize what
kind of an industry has been thriving in
their midst in the past eight months.
To my friend, the citizen, ] am deeply
obliged for the confidence he has reposed
in the management. There must be an
axe to grind somewhere but | have my
doubts if it is an axe that is intended

1t is inaccurate to say that the next
Liberty loan will bear interest at ths
rate of Az per cent. To be sure, the
certificates of Indebtedness which the
government is issuing will bear that rate
of interest, but that does not mean that
the bonds, for which the certificates OF
indebtedness are forerunners, will bear
the same rate AS matter of fact, the
last previous certificates of Indebtedness
bore Az per cent interest, but the bonds,
which followed, were for only AZ per
cent. Therefore, there is no reason to
believe that the fourth Liberty loan will
bear any higher rate than the third issue.
II is reasonable to assume that the rate
of the new loan will be the same as the
last.

Maine set the example by eliminating
politics to great degree from the pri-
maries held on Monday. That is as it
should be these days. Even Vermont is
cutting down political talk to the bone
or eliminating it entirely, for Harry
Whitehill of the Waterbury Record tells
us that during his tour of the entire
state in the interests OF the war savings
stamp advertising campaign only one
person ventured to talk politics with him
and was quickly squelehed And, let it
be stated for the benefit of the unin-
formed that ordinarily Harry Whitehill
fairly oozes politics. 1t must be a dry
political time in Vermont.

that it ought to result in some we'll
defined plans for bringing together a
thousand or more singers, both young
and old, to go through repertoire of
patriotic and old.time airs. There is
something inspiring in the music of a
vast chorus even though the vault dome
of heaven may be the only confines of the
sound. The City park and surrounding
grounds might be filled now and then
with singers anxious to gain the inspira-
ton which comes with full-throated com
munion of this sort. There would be dis
tinct benefit to arise from going over
these patriotic songs especially.

GEORGE v. IS DEMOCRATIC
King of England Democratic T
Large Degree.

Paris, June neutrality-suspicious.
of The Associated Press. George
V is described as a democratic
king by woman correspondent of
The Petit Parisien who writes of
her visit to Buckingham palace on
the occasion of an open air investi-
ture. 49,
"The sight of King George in the
midst of his people at this ceremony
filled me with mingled establishment
and admiration" she asserts. when
the American labor representatives
said that with King George they had
no impression of being in the pres
ence of king, they bestowed the
highest praise on one who is only,
and who is quite content to be only,
the first gentleman of his kingdom.
"There is no difficulty about get
ting in for one of these investitures.
1T is unnecessary to use any influence
or provide one self with letter OF
introduction, or even ticket of ad-
mission-the king of England is to
be seen by everybody.
81 noted the simplicity of his cos
tune. There is nothing to distinguish
him outwardly from all the others.
'While God Save the King is be-
ing played he stands at the salute,
holding himself quite straight, his
grave frank countenance full at once
of dignity and kindness. There is
no hysterical enthusiasm, but in all
eyes may be seen the kind of trust
and esteem and affectionate pleasure
with which one looks upon kins-
man or a friend of whom one is
proud.
I'VE have here a truly democratic
sovereign, one who instead of i'm
posing his will upon the people feels
that he incarnates their sentiments
and wishes, who associates himself
with their labors and shares their
anxieties and ordeals. who fulfills his
difficult role simply and uncon-
ciously'' ,f,ss
