LAZARD KAHN
Pays High Tribute To Organ
lied Labor During War.
Says 1t Acquitted Itself
Splendidly During the War

In the New York news of last Sun
days Cincinnati Enquirer, Lazard
Kahn, president of the Estate Stove
Company, paid glowing tribute to
the patriotism of organized labor and
its loyalty to its agreements. In the
article Mr.. Kahn says:
Organized American labor acquitt-
ed itself splendidly during the war.
1t should not be held too rigidly re-
sponsible for misconduct of its sub
ordinates. Like other things, labor
must have its evolutions in order to
attain closer perfection. 1t is pleas
ant to believe, as we'll as true, that
most of the labor leaders are imbued
with patriotic and altruistic purposes
of the highest order and by loyalty
for their agreements.
"There greatest troubles are due to
the insubordination and weakness of
many local unions. Attendance is too
often limited to members having the
least interest in peace. Some way to
force attendance of the older and So
berer members will be discovered
some day.
"Those who desire to see the labor
movement endure and serve its best
purposes are convinced that its pro-
gress is handicapped and opposition
is promoted by the refusal or failure
on the part of its leaders to accept
full responsibility for the acts of
labor unions before the law of the
land in the same way as any solvent
individual or corporation. 1t is il
logical that the higher and legiti-
mate labor claims can be permanent
ly achieved so long as unionism re-
mains physically or financially i'm
mune for it's mistakes"

eral Secretary DAILY of the associated
manufacturers and merchants of the
state of New York.
DAILY acknowledges that his execu-
tive committee and board of directors
have not passed on the question, and
then declares that there is very
general impression that the United
States employment service should not
be continued after the war necessity
ceases" He says the service has been
failure, that to continue it would be
for the purpose of furnishing jobs to
organized labor's business agents and
social welfare folks" and that busi-
ness men should urge their senators
and congressman to vote against any
appropriation
New York State Director Kirchwey
of the employment service has pro-
tested to the president of the manu-
facturers' association. He says it is
obvious why the private agents op-
pose the service.

Armed Gnards Will Be Used AS
Strikebreakers If The System
Is Put Into Effect.

needs no special new proof that this
can be done and done effectively.
We may say further that it is
much better for a town or county to
settle its own difficulties than to call
in outside help.
We can recall but two or three cases
in the last decade where troops have
been called out and in these instances
their mere presence restored order,
without their having to shoot any
body.
Are we now under the state con-
stabulary plan to keep a couple of
hundred able bodied men lying around
waiting for the emergency that may
develope only once in fv years? It
doesn't seem like good business ex-
actly.
Another consideration stands out.
Nobody knows exactly now what our
future military policy as nation is
to be. If the universal training adj
vocates have their way, and after
we have adjusted the affairs of the
world that wars in the future are for
ever impossible, we shall still have
a standing army of young men under
training at all times to preserve the
peace of the world, it doesn't seem
just reasonable that we shall need
any additional military protection.
If the universal military training
plans does not succeed, it is very
likely that we shall still have some
form at least of a state militia which
will be available in the emergency
that we should be prepared for to see
that order is preserved.
We can wait a while before estab-
fishing this state constabulary

Have Strike
Solution
Garment Manufacturers Will
Employ Different T ype
From Present Class OF
Workers

New York.-Mr Harry Gordon an
nounces that the Dress and Waist
Manufacturers association has So
luton for the strike of 600 workers
being waged by the International La
dies Garment Workers union
Mr.. Gordon said the manufacturers
will employ workers who have no
union connection and of type "dif-
ferent from our present class of
workers"
There are enough workers unem-
ployed in this city, due to the aban-
donment of government work, he said,
to supplant the strikers, women and
men who do not submit to the boil
shevistic doctrines which the strikers
drink in SO readily"
"The new class of help which the
manufacturers intend to employ"
continues Mr.. Gordon, will be kept
permanently The workers will be
carefully selected from the army of
unemployed which is at present
marching through the streets in this
and other cities, and our permanent
solution of the great difficulty-the
class of help-will have been solved" ]"
Mr. Gordon, it might be stated, is
not manufacturer and knows moth
ing of the garment industry. He is
hired mana lawyer. The "bolshe-
vistic doctrines which he refers to are
demand for the 44-hour work week
and living wage. These demands
have been indorsed by the A. F. of L.
Secretary Frank Morrison in letter
to President Schlesinger of the Inter
national union congratulating the
trade unionists on their splendid fight
| for better conditions.

BURLESON

Quits Federal Board Rather
Than Betray Fellow Workers.

Boston-Miss Julia S. O'Connor OF
this city has forwarded to Postmaster
General Burleson her resignation as
a member of the committee appointed
by him to investigate wages and
working conditions of employees of
| telephone and telegraph companies.
Miss O'Conner is president Of the
telephone operators division of the
International Brotherhood of Elec-
trical Workers, and in her letter to
the postal chief she hits straight
from the shoulder in regulation trade
union fashion. She informs Mr. Bur-
Lesson that to retain membership on
his committee would amount to a
serious betrayal Of the rights and
interests of my fellow workers, whom
you charged me to represent" She
says the committee meetings have
been infrequent, it has TO avowed
policy, its one consistency has been
hostility to the organized telephone
ana telegraph workers, ana CnaJ It's
refusal to avail itself of the infor-
nation, advice and assistance of the
organized workers has reduced it to
a condition of impotency.
The postoffice department is charg-
ed with repudiating agreements and
discrimination is employed that is
unparalleled under private control, :"
while low wages are referred. to as
"disgraceful exploitation" that
should challenge the concern and az
tention Of all persons interested in

a denial of rights supposed to be en-
joyed by citizens employed by the
government, "the odium of this state
of affairs" she says, must rest upon
the postoffice department"
"No statement of the telephone sit.
uation would be honest or complete"
she continues, "if it failed to draw the
attention of the postoffice department
to the widespread discomfort and IN
rest that exists among the telephone
workers. The postmaster general can
not be unaware of this dissatisfaction
since it has expressed itself upon
numerous occasions in strikes and
threats to strike The situation is nc
less acute among the unorganized
workers, save that they lack the voice
and means of expression which or
ganization brings"

Akron Beacon Journal I'm Strong Ar
tiCle Points Out Fake Good
Things Of Bill.

Out of the great bulk of mail mat
ter-some of it not from the various
branches of government-that come
daily to the newspaper offices we ex-
tracted the other day many PACED
publication devoted to the proposition
that the present Ohio Legislature
should create state constabulary
patterned generally on the one which
has attracted considerable attention in
one way and another in our neighbor-
ing state of Pennsylvania
The state constabulary, it is set out,
is kind to children and hell on horse
thieves; it finds runaway girls and
boys and escorts them home to moth
er, and at the same time sends chill
of terror through the law violators
who range through our rich rural dis
tricts now wholly unprotected, or al
most so, and generally constitutes a
force that makes law abiding citizens
sleep comfortably at night knowing
that their chickens and their daugh-
ters and their gold watches are safe.
This particular scrt Of propaganda,
we think, will fall on barren ground,
along with other propaganda that is
not wholly sincere or wholly ingena-
Gus. Phe state constabulary plan, how
ever, should not be condemned merely
because of the absurdities perpetrated
by some of its proponents, and despite
these inanities should be considered
on its merits. If it affects the vel
fare and the pocketbooks of the peo-
pie of the state, it should be brought
out in the open and looked over, with
all the cards laid on the table.
Perhaps we are wrong about the
thing, but we are inclined to believe
when any thorough-going examina-
ton of the plan is made, it will be
discovered that the basic notion of
it is that the state constabulary is to
be created largely to subdue labor dis
orders and to break up strikes.
This may be wrong conception,
yet if you should ask any proponent
of the plan if he is willing that pro-
vision should be made in the law for
bidding their use in labor disturb
ances, you will find he will at once
lose interest in the plan with any such
provision added
The notion that the rural districts
need protection from the state OF
Ohio won't hold water. The rich pick
ings for the law violator are in cities
Why should an ambitious burglar
waste his time in the country robbine
the farmer of couple of hundred

Washington. Private labor agents
ana employment bureaus throughout
the country are trying to put the
United States employment service
out of business by having congress re-
fuse to appropriate the necessary
maintenance funds. The government
has dealt hard blow to this meanest
of labor exploitation by its no-profit
system of supplying labor.

agents is srown by circular issued

the corporate limits of Akron, Barber
ton and the rest, then an aroused pub
lie sentiment will see to it that he
brace up his organization and give
such protection.
The notion that 200 men, stationed
perhaps at Columbus, are going to
give better protection to Summit
county in picking up chicken thieves
than our own Sheriff can, and at the
same time give equally vigilant SER
vice to 81 other counties, is absurd
on the face of it.
If we discard the camouflage then
and accept the plan as one to handle
labor difficulties, we must still look
facts fairly and impartially in the
face
There is no discounting the fact
that we may expect more or less ser
ious labor troubles in Ohio in the fu-
ture. We have had them in the past.
For certain obvious reasons growing
out of re-adjustment from war to
peace conditions, we may expect more
rather than less in the future.
But still we gravely question
whether these should be settled by
the appeal to force--or whether they
can be so settled
Is a settlement forced by guns and
mounted men going to be permanent? :?
Are we going to enter deliberately on
policy of cowing labor and capital
by force of bayonets into a settle
ment of their various difficulties? =? We
do not say of course that in any given
dispute the employees are always right,
any more than we would assert that
the employers are always right. But
we do say that settlement worth
anything must be foundationed on
both sides by justice and fair dealing
and logic and fair play and reason
ableness.
The state has the right to interfere
and should interfere when the two
parties to an industrial quarrel can't
agree, and resort to clubs and stones
5, and gun play and riot and dynamite
and destruction and death. But when
you come to think of it, labor has nc
more to gain by this resort to force
than has capital The sanest leaders
of labor vigorously oppose the appeal
to force. They are aware that per-
manent progress cannot be made in
this way, that the better conditions OF
living which they seek for their asso-
ciates cannot gain, but can only lose
by violence and rioting. This sort OF
thing has gone out of fashion, not
merely because it is wrong, but be-
cause it is in the long run, ineffec.
tive, and reacts against the cause OF
all labor.
Labor itself then outside the hot.
heads who are in the minority stands
opposed to any such condition OF
rioting and violence as should necessi.
tate the calling in of troops of armed
men.
Secondly in SO cases out of 100 the
city or county police agents can handle
the hotheads and the rioters who al
ways take advantage of such situa
ton. The present constituted authori
ties have almost unlimited powers tc
deputize the citizenship to the main
tenance of law and order, and Akron
