THE NATIONS EYES
SHOULD HAVE CARE
(By Mrs. Max West)

What of our children's eyes? Re-
cent investigation into the condi-
ton of American school children re-
veal that about -fifth-20 per
cent-are handicapped by defective
vision, and in considerable num-
Der of cases these defects are Sc
rious. How gravely this affects the
Nations welfare is demonstrated by
the findings in the recent examina-
ton of recruits for the new army.
More than 100000 men called in the
first draft were rejected for physical
disqualifications. Of the 10000 cases
which were analysed in detail, more
than one-fifth had been rejected for
defects of the eye. This single cause
was responsible for more than twice
as many reflections as the next high
est cause, namely, defects of the
teeth, and for three or four times as
many as most of the other defects.
1t is, therefore, plain that Amer
lean parents should take much more
anxious thought as to the condi-
ton of their children's eyes during
the year when the harm is most
likely to be done and when trouble
can most readily be prevented or
cured.
The first essential is to insure the
soundest possible health at birth.
This depends in certain measure
upon the health and diet of the
mother before the baby is born.
Proper food and care for the baby
throughout infancy and childhood
when the structures of the body are
growing at the most rapid rate are
necessary. Improper or insufficient
food, neglect and illness are among
the causes which interfere with
growth and healthy development of

WHAT DO THEY CARE?

The National Federation of Build
ing Trades of England has sent a
cablegram to President Wilson and
to Governor Stevens of California
asking that they deal with the
Mooney case as a war measure.
The Mooney case would have long
ago been disposed of if the Supreme
Court of California had been a
court of justice instead of court
Of technicality.
What do the "interests" in San
Francisco care if failure to give
Tom Mooney a fair trial results in
British loss of faith in American
declarations of freedom, justice and
democracy?
For the good name of the nation
give Tom Mooney a fair trial, and
be quick about it!
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1918-08-23

the body in every part and no doubt
affect the growing eyes in the same
way.
But even when the fundamental
laws of good health have been OBJ
served and when the eyes are strong
and healthy to begin with, they
should have very special care from
the moment of birth. Directions
for this are found in two bulletins
of the Children's Year, entitled "Pre-
natal Care" and "Infant Care" Both
these bulletins will be sent free in
response to all requests. Send your
name and full address clearly writ
ten to the Chief of the Children's
Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor,
Washington, ID. c.
Babies are often allowed to lie in
their carriages with the sun shin
ing directly into their eyes, or are
permitted to look straight into a
bright artificial light, thus working
harm to the delicate nerves of the
eye. AS children grow they often
strain their eyes by reading or doing
other close work in a poor light, or
too soon after illness, when the eyes
are particularly subject to injury.
1t is necessary, therefore, that par
ents know what the care of the eye
involves and so safeguard this prec-
ious sense in their children that the
inefficiency and unhappiness re-
sulting from defective vision shall
be steadily reduced.

Their practical demonstrations of pa
triotism are numberless.
And then, any man who thinks
and will open his eyes to facts printed
in the newspapers ervery day and
uttered by government officials and
public men will know that labor
is already conscripted to fight and

What "gets the goat" of the pro-
fteers and their CONSUMPTION howl
els is that men strike when unfair
conditions are forced upon them or
they are deprived of their rights
Nearly all strikes are caused by
unfair, overbearing employers. Their
attention is called to the following,

has notified Virginia authorities that
Secretary of War Baker has ruled
that strikers cannot be drafted or
lose their classification on the ground
that they are oilers.
complaint was made by j. j..
Forester, grand president of the
Brotherhood Of Railway Clerks in the
case OF Richmond, Va, employees of
the consolidated express companies
who suspended work and lost their
classified zion by the local draft
board"
Secretary of War Bakers state
ment on this question is:
1.-The regulation is silent upon
that subject, but it is not the inten-
ton Of the department to permit the
draft regulations to be used to effect
any such labor controversy, and un-
employment by reason of strikes
will not be regarded as such unem-
poyment as will cancel either eX-
Cmption or deferred classification.
The whole question of the relation
of the government to labor is for
administration by the labor depart
ment, and the war department does
not intend any indirect interference
with it,
Governor Phillips of Wisconsin,
announced that the state draft adj
ministarion will not permit the draft
to become a factor in industrial dis
putes, and that the draft admins
trati'm condemns employers who, by
intimidation or insinuation, attempt
to use the deferred classification of
workers under the selective service
law as a leverage upon their indus
trial status"
The howlers for labor CONSUMPTION
have "non-essential" occupation
and should then selves be compelled
to work or fight" and if they keep
up the howl they surely will have
to fight or lay down.

WHAT WILL WE DO
AFTER THE WAR

What to do with returned soldiers
after rehabilitation of the army and
navy after the war is matter at
tracing the attention of the people
and Legislators. 1t is none too soon
to think of what to do for our SOL
diers when they shall have returned
to civil life.
The Northwestern Service Bureau
of ST. Paul has the following sug-
gestions:
American statesmen are beginning
to talk of plans for reconstruction
after the war Thus far they have
not gone beyond the idea of putting
returned soldiers on the land. The
idea of this is that men who have
served in the army will not choose
to return to indoor work. The editor
of the Chicago Tribune evidently had
this in mind when he suggested that
these men who have risked their lives
for their country should be put to
building roads on their return.
1t is evident that the voters will
have to think this matter out for
themselves. No politician ever takes
definite or an advanced position
until popular demand has been
built up. In England, the Labor party
has taken hold of the problem. 1t
realizes that no nation is going to
become so purely agricultural after
the war that even a majority of its
veterans can find life on farm
profitable. Only so much food can
be consumed, and any surplus is
waste.
The British Labor party sees clear
ly that men will go back to their old
Jobs, the work that they are fitted
for. So it urges better conditions in
factories and shops. One demand is
for an international agreement for
the enforcement in all countries of
legislation on factory conditions, a
maximum eight-hour day, the pre-
vention of sweating and unhealthy
trade conditions, and the prohibition
of night work for women and chill
dren. In view of the danger of I'M
/ employment due to rehabilitation
and the shutting down of munition
plants, the Labor party also urges
preparation of plans for public works.
These suggestions are good, of
course, but they scarcely seem ade-
quate to the size of the emergency.
1t is important that the common peo-
pie start thinking on "afer the war. )"
There is reason, too, why organized
labor and organized farmers should
have representation at the peace con-
ference, which doubtless will deal
with these questions.

THRIFT AND LABOR

There is popular theory of eco
Monies that it is the spending of
money that makes business, employ
ment and wages. This is true to
a certain extent, but it does not
imply wasteful expenditure and does
not deny thrift. 1t is not true
that the throwing away of money in
foolish expenses makes for prosper
ity.
There have been those who have
criticised the War Savings Cam
paign, alleging it to be movement
of capital for the purpose of getting
wage earners to live cheaper and
save money during the war so they
can be made to work cheaper after
the war. This is absurd.
On the other hand, prominent
banker said, every dollar saved
tends to raise wages. Why? Be-
cause the dollar that is saved must
be put to work; otherwise it is not
profitable. If it is placed in bank,
it must seek investment, perhaps on
real estate loans, meaning the en-
ployment of labor in buildings; per-
haps on merchants notes, meaning
to help in the distribution of the
products of labor; perhaps in loans
to manufacturers, thus helping to
employ labor. Every time a dollar
goes to work it creates a demand for
labor and if we create a demand for
labor, there must be tendency to
raise the wages of labor"
The foregoing statement sounds
like good economics and moreover,
it teaches the lesson of thrift and it's
value to labor, for dollar saved is
dollar of strength. We know
that in our labor union. We know
that if a labor union is without
money, it's troubles multiply. EN-
ployers neither fear nor respect it.
On the other hand, union with a
strong treasury is apt to receive con-
sideration.
Suppose an employer of thousand
hands knows that his employees have
savings averaging $500 each. He
knows then, they can live a year
without him. Suppose he knows,
also, that they are members of a
union that has strong treasury.
He knows, then, that through their
affiliation they could live another
years or two years without him.
This means that he will be slow to
attack their wages. 1t means also
that he will be inclined to listen to
requests for increases. 1t means
that money power is just as essential
and just as Influential for the wage
Garner and his union as it is for the
business man and the bank.
But these are peace time argu-
ments. We are now engaged in a
war to determine whether our free
institutions shall survive. We are
asked to save money by the purchase
of War Savings Stamps and to loan
our money to the Government. Every
dollar invested in War Savings
Stamps is dollar lent to defend
ourselves against German autocracy
and brutality, and it is also a dollar
to strengthen our economic condi-
tons when the war is over Every
wage Garner in the land needs to get
this fact fixed firmly in his mind,
that every dollar we save is tower
or strength to US whether we do it
as individuals or as unions, or both,
as well as a present aid to the Gov
eminent which represents all the lib
critics we hold dear.
