Soldiers
Labor Will Hit
Scale of Wages

That the slogan Give Our Sol
diers Their ole Jobs Back" VIII be
mancuvered by the employers into
an effort 90 force wages down was
the theory of a talk given by 2. II.
Metz, publisher of the InterurbaE
Journal. before an open meeting of
the South Bend Trades council held
Monday night in the Trades council
hall on s Michigan st.
II was pointed out that at the
time the soldiers were employed
wages were on a lower scale than at
present and the propaganda being
spread throughout the country to
give the boys their old jobs back
means to give them the job back at
the old price and the present work
ers will be forced TO accept the old
scale or else quit
South Bend is the poorest or
ganized city in the country" said Mr.
Metz. "and as a result the workmen
generally are the lowest paid. There
are only two or three unions in the
city enough organized 10 resist a re e.
duction in wages.
How will YOU resist a reduction
in wages o." asked Mc. Metz. ct can
only be accomplished by organiza-
ton. For examp @. consider the
building trades. The contractors IN
the state of Indiara are organized
100 per cent. The building trades
at the best are only about 90 per
cent. is it reasonable that the par
TALLY organized trades can hold their
own with a perfect organization ,"
tt was stated that the woodwork
ers Of South Bend receive a maxi
mum pay of only 81 u cents per
hour and are compelled 20 work 10
hours a day. This condition should
be changed. stated Mr.. Metz, and in
a short time he said he would stars
20 organize the woodworkers Of
South Bend.
Union men and all sympathizers
of organized labor were asked to
utilize every energy to counterac:
the present propa ganda being used
by capital in an effort to reduce
wages

WHY We MUST SAVE FOOD.

The 1917 wheat crop In France wos
less than half normal, using the crop
OF 1913 as q basis Of comparison.
There We a Ihortage Of 178,OOO,Wo
bushels, or 53a per cent. The potato
crop was only within one-third OF nor
NAL. The sugar beet crop showed a
deficit Of $40 per cent Her meat
herds in the early fall showed a short
age Of 100000 animals.
Those are few Of the reasons
America must feed her associates In
the war. They are no longer able to
feed themselves, and unless we come
70 the rescue are face to face with
starvation. And starvation means 1e-
feat in the war.
