FACTS THE BULLETS OF THE WOMEN'S
TRADE UNION LEAGUE

The Wolnen's Trade Union League through
its secretary, Mrs. Maud Swartz who, by
the by, is also the chairman of the Labor Com
mittee for the New York State Woman's Suf-
frage Association J, is also taking a very active
part in the campaign against the Brown bill.
In discussing the pros and of this bill
(for there are a few pros) 7 limited to Mrs.
Swartz that there are women workers who
are strongly in favor of the passage of the
bill because they are anxious to earn the extra
money that the extra work would give them.
Then those women should be protected
from themselves" replied Mrs. Swartz. "The
state should step in and tell them what
is good for them. They must be made to real
ze that by lengthening their hours for work
they are lessening their own strength ard the
number of years that they will be able to work
From the point of view of the state it is an
economic question absolutely, for the state
will be called upon to look after them when
their working days are over
Mrs. Swartz's ideas Of the author of the
Brown bill are interesting. She points to the
fact that Mr.. Brown is an old man who knows
little or nothing of the conditions under which
the laborers in our modern factories work He
will tell you that he was brought up on a farm
never did him speck of harm" and "look at
the men and women of those days. Who ever
heard of nervous breakdowns or cutting down
the hours for work."
Twelve hours day." says Mrs. Swartz;
twelve hours spent in different occupations
in the sunshine and open air, and that for only
a part of the year. What of the long winters
when the greater part Of the day was spent
sitting by the stove and doing nothing? l
should like to take Mr.. Brown gently by the
hand and lead him into one or two factories
that know and let him see if he would care
to work twelve hours under the high pressure
that is required Of those workers. Let him
breathe the bad air and listen to the deafening
noise OF the machinery for just one day. and
then see il ne will advocate suspension of
the ffty-four hour law.
WHO SAID UNCONSTITUTIONAL?
Of course, the main question agitating those
who are interested in the Brown bill is this:
II the bill again passes the two houses and
goes to the Governor will he stick to his
original text and veto it again, or will he be
influenced by the manufacturing interests and
the arguments of those who are urging its
passage as war measure and either sign it or
let it go by default?
Nobody knows. But, in case worst comes to
worst and the Governor does sign the bill, I'll
whisper a secret--there is still a Vice. small
Niger in the wood-pile." for the Association
of the Bar of the City Of New York, in bull
letin recently issued, declares the Brown bill to
DE unconstitutional because it gives the Indus
trial Commission power to set aside provi-
sion of the labor laws without legislative re-
strlctlon or guidance, an illegal proceeding.
So there you are
All in all it doesn't look as if the Brown bill
had chance in the world, does it? And vet

welfare of the women workers. 1t has been
her experience that these women work at the
highest speed and pressure for the nine hours
per day and at the end of that time they have
used up every scrap of their strength and
energy, and any extra hours which they spend
in the factory would yield very little and
would, moreover, decrease their strength for
the work of the following day
Miss Swartz points to the fact that the
better class of manufacturers recognize the
wisdom Of the present labor laws and are not
in favor of the Brown bill. 1t is the heads
of organizations who do not employ union
labor, who pay no heed to the laws of labor
unions and whose factories inefficiently
and badly managed that advocate the extern
sion of working hours.
THE CHILD LABOR COMMITTEE AND SECRE-
TARY BAKER SPEAK
The New York Child Labor Committee is
leaving no stone unturned to maintain the
laws concerning the labor of children for
which they have fought so long and untr-
ingly. In a pamphlet which they are scnF ng
out. and which deals with the subject Of THE
Wartime Needs of New York's Child Work
ers,' they quote from speech of Secretary
Baker, as follows:
begun to appreciate, that the person who tends
The power driven machine is far more open to
fatigue and to the posons that affect the system
and thai come from over-eXerton, than ever be
fore We cannot afford when losing boys
in France to lose children in the United States
AZ the time"
THE Y. W. c. A. JOINS THE ACTIVE PRO-
TESTORS
The Y. ". c. A., through it's industrial
secretaries, is also fighting the passage of the
Brown bill, and every working woman en-
rolled in its ranks has been asked to write
special personal letter of protest to the Sen
ator and Assemblymen representing her dis
trlCt in Albany. Such letter from woman
means a heap more to-day than it did last
June, when the bill was first presented for
every solitary one of these protests comes
from voter and the man who receives it
realizes that a sufficient number of these
voters ranged against him can make or mar
his reelection.

RUSSIA'S RICH TIMBER LANDS
Systematic Expectation Would Have
Great Effect on the Markets
of the World.

An article in a current magazine by
A. j. Sack presents statistics on Rus
sia's forest resources as a means of
paying the billions of dollars due to
home and foreign creditors.
The astonishing statement is made
by this writer that Russia, including
Siberia, has 1,125,OOO,OOO acres of tim
Der which is 60 per cent as much as
the whole world possessed. This re-
source Is being set aside by Russian
economists as fund to pay the coun-
try's debts.
The effect on Americas business
should be duly considered, observes
Hardwood Record in discussing the ar
ticle. Except oak, it continues, which
is generally known in the market as
the japanese oak, it is not probable
that much Russian timber will reach
the United States; but it will compete
with American lumber in other mar
kets, notably those of western Europe,
and perhaps those OF eastern Asia,
western South America and the Pacific
islands.
ITO that extent" says Hardwood
Record, 'our lumber business may be
hurt by the flood Of forest products
from Russia. In normal times Ger
many received 4S per cent of its lum-
Der imports from Russia, and Eng
lands per cent of timber imports from
that source was nearly as large.
Lumber shipments from Russia will
come from the Baltic, from the Arctic
coast of Russia proper and Siberia,
and from the Pacific coast of the lat
ter country. The PRINCIPAL lumber
markets of the world can be reached
from those. points,"
