wage-earners in a great. compact, powerful fedora
ton. Many leaders complain that the present or
ganizauon OF the Federation n Labor Is TOO loose
These leaders represent the extremist idea, which
has found favor in the west and which seems 20 be
winning in Canada.
Against them are arrayed Samuel Gompers and
the other so-csIled conservative leaders who have
guided the destinies Of the federation for many
years They maintain that in the very iooseness OF
the present organization lies its great merit and
strength. A report submitted BY a committee Of
which Mr.. Gompers is chairman. asserts:
The magnificent growth Of the American
Federation Of Labor is conceded by all students
or economic thought 70 be the result Of organ
izaton on trade lines. and believing II neither
necessary nor expedient 20 make any radical de-
parture from this Fundamental principle. we de-
clare that as a general proposition the interest
Of workers Will be best conserved by adhering
as closely 20 that doctrine as the recent great
changes in methods Of production and employ
ment make practicable
All this sounds rather vague 10 the ordinary ciu-
zen. The sist Of the matter seems TO lie in the rela-
tive power Of organized labor to enforce It's will
under the two plans. According to the present sys-
tenn. there is a loose federation Of trades, with each
trade practically independent Thus any particular
trade presents its demands and. IL IL comes TO the
worst. inaugurates a strike which may involve only
the local branch OF that trade or NAV extend 70 the
entire trade throughout the country, but which sell
dom drags IN other trades There are sometimes
sympathetic strikes" but they are voluntary, and
are the exception rather than the rule.
The purpose OF the radicals who demand the
unionizauon and Capitalization Of all workmen is
TO make possible the calling out of all organized
labor in any community, and even the calling Of a
complete national strike.
The danger OF such a system 10 the nation as a
whole is self-e evident even with 1 W w-ism elm
mated. The danger to the average union workman
himself is also evident enough 10 the more sober
and thoughtfuI unionists It may be very hne to have
all the other trades quit work in support Of a de-
nand made by ones own trade. but it is not so fine
for a member of a union to be obliged to quit work.
time and time again. in compulsory support OF
claims made by other unions in which he has only
the most distant interest.

WOMEN AT WORK

During The war, millions Of wom-
en- have been at work in vocauons
into which they have never before
been called-in Munition Factories.
Chemical Works. Metal Works.
Street Railways, and as Ambulance
Drivers. BARRIERS. and Elevator Girls.
Undoubtedly thousands OF others
have longed 70 serve in this way. but
because o. female ailments, which
had f~astered upon them. were no.

HOMES FOR

According to a steel man of prominence, steel
makers of the United States plan TO start at once
spending large sums improving their plants and as
sisting their employees 10 build their own homes.
II is believed that this plan will do much 70 re-
vive building and to restore business conditions to
normal.
More than the impetus given TO business will be
the result Of such action. It will have a marked ef-
feet upon labor unrest and dissatisfaction.
Men who own their own homes are less easily
led astray by the anarchist and agitator than trans
lent jewellers. If the home ownership has been made
possible by the concern for which the man works,
there is the added element Of personal gratitude and
loyalty to restrain the worker from violence or idle
ness.
Where the steel men have led the way it is 10
he hoped that other business concerns will follow.
Such a policy will promote good times and sound
labor conditions; two things sorely needed right now
in America.

HOPE FOR THE TERRIBLE TURK.


In days now departed the terrible Turk
From ginmiIl to ginmil would carom
When homeward he wended his way from his
work
To the door OF his lowly matched harem.
He taaked up on hasheesh and other hard stuff,
For the cautious, though hardened old sinner
Well knew he was due to be used rather rough.
AS soon as he turned up for dinner.
For seventeen wives each would loudly declare
That she must see the movies that evening, so
therel
| make no defense of the Turks plural lives.
What what ! am trying to prove is
That a mans up against it, when seventeen wives
All want to go out to the movies
And when each one announces, in terms very
plain
And phrases emphatic. her wishes
That her husband request all the rest to remain
In the harem and wash up the dishes.
Amy Turk, | should think. would feel twinges of
pique,
When this sort of thing happened six nights a
week.
And therefore the Turk (as a lot of us might
Provided that we were thus goaded)
From barroom to barroom would cruise every
night
And get himself handsomely loaded.
And an Ottoman male, when with hasheesh and
He makes himself rather too mellow
(Ihey never drink wisely, but always too much)
Is a terrible, terrible fellow
He turned to the drink because life was IN
bearable
And drink was the reason the Turk became
terrible.
But now that the war has cut down the supply
OF ladies the Turk is allied with,
When one single lass is the light of his eye,
To honor and live and abide with,
There isn't a chance, every time he Gomez horne
with only three boxes of candy
That fourteen fond spouses will batter his dome
With whatever weapon is handy.
And here is the moral of this little parable
