Cooks

The following, clipped from the Hi
nois Tradesman, Springfield, ILL.,, tells
of the activities of well known mem
ber of Denver Cooks Union No. 1S:
Richard E. Croskey, International
organizer for the Hotel and Restau
rant Employees, who is well known in
this city, has been stationed for the
present at Bloomington, where he will
work in the interest of his organiza-
tion. The Bloomington trade union
lists promised the State Federation of
Labor convention at Joliet last fall
that when they met in Bloomington
this year, they would find a thoroly
organized town as far as the restau-
rant and hotels are concerned, and it
looks as tho they are going to make
good their promise"

Engineers
(By c. w. CRUM.)

The Engineers held another rousing
meeting Thursday night, had a large
attendance and received eight new ap-
plications for membership. New mem
bers are coming in fast, but we still
have a few blanks left, and there is
room in the hall to accommodate a
few more.
Brother Jacobs of Omaha called on
us Thursday night. He reported that
the Engineers in Omaha are all or
ganized and are getting good pay and
plenty of work.
Glad to report that Mrs. J. A.
Splaine is doing as well as could be
expected, but is still a patient in the
Mercy hospital. We hope to hear of
her returning home soon.
Brother Mort Campbell is slowly
recovering, but is still confined to the
house. His engine room at Carlson's
ice cream factory is being filled by
Brother John Prime.
Chief Boiler Inspector R. J. O'Neal
returned home Wednesday, after
brief sojourn in the East, having at
tended the funeral of relative at
Peoria, Ill. We are pleased to see
him back at his desk again in the city
hall.

Machinists

No settlement has yet been reached
between Machinists Lodge No. AZ and
the thirty Denver contract shop own
ers on the proposed new wage sched-
ule. The men are demanding G5 cents
per hour in order to cope with the
war cost of living. At present the
scale is 81 cents per hour and the en-
ployers offered to give 81 cents. This
was rejected by the union, and Judge
Musser was appointed by Secretary
of Labor Wilson to act as a federal
mediator by reason of the shops here
having war contracts. The Judge,
however, was unable to bring about an
agreement and the union has asked the
international Association of Machin-
lists to act in the matter. In the mean
time the 400 or more employees are
remaining on their jobs.
Nominations for officers of the In
ternational Association of Machinists
have been completed, President
lodges, James A. Taylor of Seattle
by 149, and James O'Connell by one
lodge. Johnston has the nomination
in most of the largest lodges. For
secretary-treasurer, the incumbent, E.
C. Davidson, has 1868 endorsements,
against 16 for George Preston, former
incumbent. Fred Hewitt, for editor
of the Journal, has 355 endorsements,
while his nearest competitors, with q
and 13 respectively, have withdrawn
from the race. For vice-president, in
the United States, J. F. Anderson has
26S and P. j. Conlon 1873 lodges be-
hind him. J. A. McClelland has 354
endorsements for the presidency
for Canada, his nearest competitor, J.
Foster, getting only 5 lodges.

Painters

The recently organized Auto Paint
ers Union has practically won its
strike for a wage scale and an eight
hour day. Of eighty men originally
out, only six are now unemployed, all
of the leading automobile and garage
concerns having signed the union
agreement, which calls for eight-hour
day, so cents per hour and price and
one-half for overtime Thus the men
employed in this craft have gained
quick beneficial results thru the me-
dunn of organization.
w. S. Wilson, business agent of No.
70, expects to make trip to Boulder
soon, where he will inaugurate a re-
vival among the painters of that city.

wOMENs' WAGES ARE TOO LOW.

Cost of living has increased at least
80 per cent over two years ago, says
the state industrial welfare commits
sion, in its report at Olympia, which
insists that if Washington women and
child workers are to be maintained
according to American standards of
living, a much higher wage must be
paid than the rates which were estab-
lished in 1914-1915. The commission
appeals to employers to raise wages.
"Unless employers respond satisfac-
torily," it is stated, "the commission
will be compelled to take such other
action within it's power as may be
necessary to insure the desired re-
suit"

START A BABY-SAVING DRIVE.
Child Labor Bureau to lnaugurate
Educational Campaign.

The children's bureau of the federal
department of labor announces a drive
to save 100000 lives ordinarily sacri-
feed to infant diseases.
A nationwide weighing and meas
uring of babies and children of pre-
school age will begin April to be
followed by an educational campaign,
which it is hoped will diminish at
least one-third the annual total of
100000 preventable deaths of children
under five years.
The physical examinations will be
the most comprehensive stock taking
of human resources ever attempted
for the purpose of conserving life.
Methods by which lives are to be
saved during the twelve months pc
riod include registration of every child
so that medical skill may be pro-
vided in cases where the family in
come is low; nurses during the period
of confinement; clinics where sick
children may be given medical atten-
ton; organization of bureaus of child
hygiene; protecting the milk supply;
an income making possible decent liv-
ing standards.

Ciearnakers
BY j. W. SANFORD.

Communication received from the
Central Labor Union of Lancaster,
Pa, gives the information that the
Otto Eisenlohr Bros. cigar factory To-
Gated at Lancaster is still on the un-
fair list and that the cigarmakers have
been locked out for over year. This
firm makes the "Cinco" cigar which
was at one time very popular.
C. f. Hamm writes US from Lander
that he recently secured an option on
twenty choice lots in that city and has
now started in to erecting suitable
buildings on them. He is elated over
his prospects of cleaning up neat
sum of money this coming season from
his investments, which include num-
ber of valuable oil properties.
John Sack is back from Laramie,
where he has been working for the
past six months. John says that
while business in all lines is good
up there, the amusement features are
lacking. John is convinced of the old
adage that "all work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy" He is now
working on a good job at the NJ. & o..
factory.
B. f. Sanborn was called to Salt
Lake this week on important business,
but expects to be back shortly.
William Willers, for many years a
resident of St. Louis, in the state
where the ground hog is recognized
as authority on weather prospects, has
thrown up good job in contemplation
of taking up a proposition IN dry
farming. Bill says indications point
to prosperous year in the pinto bean
industry and he is going to get in on
the ground floor. He is so sure of
his crop that he is taking orders in
advance.
The addition of the drug clerks to
the ranks of organized labor is the
consummation of long deferred priv
ilege that they have been overlooking.
They are in a position to not only be
benefited, but be of benefit to other
organizations. They should under
stand, however, that the president of
the Trades Assembly does not under
stand Latin and their remarks should
be made in English.
There is more prosperity noticeable
lust now with our union manufactur-
ers than with the nOn-union ones. Bet
ter pay and better hours of labor IS
feature of the union shops. Some dis
satisfaction has sprung up lately, we
are informed, in the non-union shops
on this account.
Puritan Bond, Copyright, Best
Value, Hagler's Rose, Queen City Win
ners, High Altitude and Silver Bow
5 cent cigars are made in non-union
shops in this city and of course do not
bear the blue label of the Cigarmak
ers.
When you ask for label goods and
the dealer tells you he has not got
them, Just refuse the other kind and
the dealer will more than likely have
what you want the next time you call.

Councilman E. V. Holland at Mon

of the Electrical Workers Union,
Councilman Joseph R. Rees interced-
ing in their behalf to good effect, so
that the matter has been indefinitely
postponed. Councilman Rees is one
man at the city hall who can always
be depended upon to look after the
interests of the wage Garner.
