ORGANIZED LABOR,S GIFT

The magnificent gift made by organized labor of this city to the
nth Amboy chapter of the Red Cross is a striking testimony OF the
steem in which this most humanitarian organization IS held IN the
minds of the workers.
The Red Cross has an appeal that cannot be resisted by anyone
regardless of his station in life, but the fact that its greatest service Is
in administering to the injured and the dying, to the sck ana nos "
distress makes its appeal particularly effective to those whom Apla-
ham Lincoln delighted to call the great mass of common people.
Perth Amboy is fortunate in being made up mostly OF IN %
called common people. This is distinctly a community of workers
s,cople who have to toll hard for a living. In these days when the hlgh
host of everything runs away with every dollar that a man can earn;
when what small savings can be made are loaned to the government,
1 is most impressive to find the labonng man contributing of his
means toward the purchase of a gift for the Red Cross a S a means OF
depressing his appreciation of the work done by that organization to
the thousands of his comrades both on the battlefield INC ID nome
Communities where disease has so depleted his ranks.
Unionism takes a higher place and a broader vision IN this gmt
Ito the Red Cross and the cause for which it stands. The cause of or
aniNa labor is advanced in the estimation of the public. Those who
have been inclined to think that unionism was entirely selfish have
his striking example to refute such an impression.
More and more capital and labor are coming to understand each
Ter. For years they have worked at loggerheads, each one fighting
i its own rights regardless of the other. But there is every reason to
sieve that a new era is dawning. The magnificent spirit displayed
! organized labor during the trying days of the war has won Tor
2onigm unstinted praise and thousands Of friends. While it Is true
laboring man has been receiving enormous wages, it is also true
wages have not increased in proportion to the cost OF living. And,
the laboring man has been receiving his fat pay envelope, the
seaptnist has likewise been receiving his fat dividends.
Hker all, we all are bound together in one big brotherhood OF
