GLIMpSES OF CHkS. DICKS
CONGRESSIONAL RECORD

Probably no greater progress has
been made in legislation and admins
tration in the last six years, writes a.
Washington correspondent, than In the
field of labor. Since President. VIII
sons first election and the overthrow
of the Old Guard, the country has well
coined government support Of:
The right of laboring men toatorm'
unions,
The eight-hour day,
Universal application OF the ~princll-
ple of Cancellation and adjustment,
and, the right of women in industry TO
equal pay for equal work.
This review of progress, continues
the correspondent, is caused by reports
from Ohio of the campaign beng
made by former Senator Dick, OF the
| Old Guard, to return to Congress. The
nossibility of his return to the House
IF Representatives and the further
chance that the Old Guard might con-
troll the house, has excited this ques-
ton: =. u.Lo
Would Congress go back to the
good old days?"
EXAMPLES of what is meant by the
"oood old days" may be had by bark
ing back to some Of the votes, cast ny
Dick when he was working hana-m, !,
hand with Boies Penrose, Smoot and
Aldrich, of the Old Guard in the
United States.
A typical labor vote by DICE was was
that Of March 3, 1907. A Conference
Renort providing that railroad en-
ployees, dispatchers, towermen, etc.,
could work twelve hours contlnuously
in the twenty four, was submiIteG 11n1 "
the Senate. Dick voted to ACCEPT
that report, along with other stand
nat Senators, but the report was re-
;ected. Later Senator NeWlands
Democrat, headed a successful hight u
cut the number of hours TO- nine
On another occasion, Dick showed
how the Old Guard felt about the vel
fare of labor by voting for the loop
hole" amendment to the Cnlld haOo
Law. This measure virtually nulll1le'
the effect of the Child Labor Law, be
cause it allowed children below tn
specified ages to work, provided Ger
tifcate from physician was present
ed.
Popular election of the United State
senators was in Dicks day opposed b
the Old Guard when he registered NJ n
, mo" on this legislation, in 1871. y
a piece with this action on the que:
tion of bosses and bossism, was nj
vote of two days later when ne vote
to allow Senator Lorimer, OF lllinol
to retain his seat in the Senate, de-
pite revelations Of LOrimer's recor
Lorimer, however, was unseated by II
next Congress. !.
Dicks record was so consistent
standpat, that Washington has no ne
: itancy in placing him in the san
! class with Penrose, Smoot, Fordne
D Mann and the other Of the Old Qua
who still hang on despite the forwa
trend of political thought and adml
istrative method. His return, If
should mean Republican Congress
the kind that sat when the twelV
hour day was common, would be !
garded as distinct menace to- t
cause Of labor and all that is progrt
sive. "
