A LARGE WAGE
INCREASE IS DUE

Each day brings additional i'm
provement to the logging and lum-
bering industry. Prices are stead
lily advancing and it is impossible
for the manufacturers to fill the or
ders, which are coming from every
quarter. The supply of lumber in
the yards is being depleted and soon
there will be real lumber panic.
And this is true in all parts of the
United States.
There has been some advance in
wages, but it is nowhere in com
parison with what it should be con-
sidering the prevailing prices of
lumber products; however, there
are exceptions to the rule, a few
employers in the Northwest have
granted advances in wages which
are fairly satisfactory. Most of the
mills in Snohomish County, Wash
ington, are paying $3.50 as a min
imum since July !, and there are
indications that other localities
will come up to that figure soon.
The advance i'll wages in this par
ticular district is due to the activi-
ties of our union, and it is hoped
that soon other organized districts
will exercise their unionism and ac-
complish the same wage scale.
1t is certain that where any or
ganized effort is made this year
that better wages and conditions
can be secured, for all conditions
are favorable. lumber prices are
high and the demand abnormal, and
coupled with it there is, and will
be. a severe labor shortage through
out the year, resulting from the in
creased activities in all industries.
There are many thousands OF
workmen migrating to their home
land in Europe and there is no i'm
mediate prospect for an influx OF
labor from any source, consequently
the workmen in the lumber and
logging industry should thoroughly
organize and demand substantial
increases in wages. Never before
were living expenses so high, and
all indications are that they Will
continue to increase, so if we do
not organize and be able to meet
the increase from time to time we

PHILADELPHIA, July 5.-The

structed at the Hog Island ship
yards, was launched under unusual
circumstances. The boat was named
after the American Federation of
Labor, because of the able sup
port given the Government by union

of the boat is the cable code ad-
dress of the American Federation
of Labor.
International Secretary-Treasurer
Sara A. Conboy, Of the United Tex
tile Workers of America, acted as
sponsor for the boat and the launch
ing was in charge of committee
of the organized ship-builders.
President Gompers was the prin-
cipal speaker.

comparison of costs between carry
ing $4,000 War Risk Insurance for
five years beginning at age rs and
making immediate conversion to
$4,000 Ordinary Life policy. This
illustration will show you very
quickly that the new insurance is
actually cheaper than the old War
Risk Insurance. 1t also shows you
that by taking out one of the new
policies you secure protection plus
saving. In other words, should the
need for insurance protection be
eliminated in the later years of
your life, the cash surrender value
(Which will be refunded to you if
you drop the policy, will amount
to a substantial sum. This cash
refund value on your policy should
be considered as a Savings ac-
count"
And remember-the man who
takes the Ordinary Life Policy con-
tinued to pay $152.4O per year for
his insurance, while the one who
carries the War Risk Insurance for
five years must start all over again
at the end of that period, paying an
annual premium of $173.60 for the
same policy.
