Scale 25-Democracy, Industry.

Scale 25-Democracy, Industry.
The report declares it essential that
workers should insist upon their right
to organize into trade unions and that
legislation should be passed making it
criminal offense for employers to
interfere with this right.
Scale 25.-Unempsoyment.
Unemployment, the report says, is
caused by under-consumption, which,
in turn, is caused by low wages.
"Just wages" it is said,, will pre-
vent industrial stagnation and lessen
periodical unemployment"
WAGES-After declaring that
there is no method for obtaining just
wages except through the trade union
movement, the report says:
"The workers of the nation de-
mand a living wage for all wage
earners, skilled or unskilled-a wage
that will permit the worker and his
family to live in health and comfort,
provide competence for illness and
old age and afford to all an oppor-
tunity for cultivating all that is best
in mankind.
HOURS-The report reiterates the
demand for an eight-hour day with
overtime prohibited in emergencies.
WOMEN IN INDUSTRY-Women,
the report says, should receive the
same pay as men for equal work per-
formed and must not be permitted
to perform tasks disproportionate to
their physical strength.
CHILD LABOR Exploitation of
the child for private gain must not
be permitted" the report says in call
ing upon legislators to pass laws to
protect children.
Status of Public Employees.
Public employees should have the
right to organize and must not be
limited in the exercise of their rights
as citizens, says the report.

Americans Accuse
British In Ireland

PARIS, Friday, June 6.-Within
the last few months at least ten citi-
zens have been killed in Ireland by
soldiers or constables under circum-
stances found by coroners' juries to
have been willful murder. This
charge is made in the report on OBJ
servations made in Ireland by Frank
p. Walsh, Michael j. Ryan and Ed
ward F. Dunno, delegates of the Irish
societies in the United States. The
report, which was made public last
night, was sent to President Wilson
along with the demand that the peace
conference investigate the Irish ques-
ton.
Numerous and specific charges of
atrocities committed in Irish jails are
contained in the document. Charges
are made that hundreds of men and
women were put in prison without
any specific accusations being made
against them. The document says
that at least five men died as result
of atrocities in prisons, and that many
prisoners are confined in cells Of in
adequate size and given insufficient
and unwholesome food.
1t is also alleged that punitive
measures of the prison authorities
included drenching with water, in
which the prisoners were obliged to
remain all night in unheated cells,
bringing on pneumonia. Solitary con-
fnement and Withholding of rations
also is charged. 1t is stated further
that the heads of hundreds of fam
lilies were sent to Jail or deported,
leaving dependent women and chill
dren without means of support and
to become objects of charity.
The report says that Messrs. Walsh,
Ryan and Dunno visited Ireland with
the assurance from Premier Lloyd
George that they would be given full
freedom to investigate.

"To the men at the meeting
stated that we had to strike in self
defense because of the tactics Post
master General Burleson in permit
ting our people to be discharged right
and left without giving any protec-
tion and giving US no chance for a
wage adjustment or arranging for col
lective bargaining. | told them my
efforts in the east had been absolutely
unproductive and there was nothing
left to do but strike"
Mr.. Konenkamp said everywhere
the members are assuring him they
will do all they can to make the
strike effective. Rumors that the
time for the strike had been advanced
were unfounded, he said, and there
was no thought of changing the call
issued yesterday.

nenkamp declared in th1 last three

Budapest Reds
Massacre Innocents

VIENNA, Saturday, June O.
Three thousand peasants, including
women and children, have been shot
or hanged by the Red army as con-
sequence of revolts in western Hun
gary around Oedenburg, according to
news considered trustworthy which
has been received here. The entire
village of Kolnhof was burned.
The massacre took place after 80
villages surrounding Oedenburg had
refused to go over to bolshevism.
They desired to join Austria.
Bella Kun, communist leader and
minister of foreign affairs, and Joseph
POgany, bolshevik minister of war,
visited the districts, then sent orders
to Commissioner Seily, to which such
work is usually deputed because of
his bloodthrsty character, to conduct
acquisitions of clothing, food and i'm
perial paper crowns now called "bluc"
money, to distinguish it from red"
or soviet money.
The peasants, according to advices,
gathered a small army, numbering a
few thousand, armed with rifles, axes,
scythes and similar weapons, against
which a red division was sent. The
peasants were surrounded. Kolnhof
was shelled then machine guns were
turned against it on Thursday and
Friday nights. A majority of those
fleeing from the burning village were
shot. Those who were captured were
hanged.

CHICAGO, June 9.-Reports of

S. j. Konenkamp, international presi-

Peoples Final Voice in Legislation.
The report recommends legislation
to allow laws once held unconstitu-

i've if re-enacted.
Political Policy.
The report comes out fatty against
a Tabor party and says that better
results can be secured to labor by
non-partisan support of candidates
known to be friendly to labor.
Government Ownership.
"Public and semi-public utilities
should be owned, operated or regu-
lated by the government in the in
terest of the public" the report says,
and continues that whatever dispo-
sition is made of the railroads the
rights of employees must be protected.
Encouragement o: the merchant
marine under government control is
recommended with the granting to
seamen the rights as other workmen.
Waterways and Water Power.
Legislation for development of wa
ter power by the federal government
and states is recommended to pre-
vent the power passing into private
hands for exploitation.
Ownership of Land.
To wipe out the "evils of tenant
farming" the report recommends a
graduated tax on ~ useable lands
above the amount cultivated by the
owner with provisions whereby ten
ant farmers or others may purchase
tracts.
Regulations of Corporations.
The report calls for federal licens-

Taft Praises Labor
Chiefs For
Fighting Reds
BY WILLIAM H. TAFT.

The annual convention of the
American Federation or Labor will
be held at Atlantic City during the
present week. In such convention
there always are distinct elements.
There is the extreme faction which is
socialistic and some of which have
strong |. w. w. tendencies. Then
there are divisions along other lines.
But one fact stands out clearly and
definitely, and that is that while Sam
ueI Gompers and James Duncan and
John Mitchell may differ in detail and
perhaps in political sympathies, they
represent the element now influential
in the federation of labor which is
really conservative, though progress
sive in desire for reforms which they
conceive to be essential and practical
in the bettering of the relations be-
tween capital and labor. 1t is not
necessary to agree with Mr.. Gompers
or his colleagues in all the plans for
economic and other reforms to which
the A. F. of l.. is pledged in order
to sympathize with their general op-
position to the l. w. w. extremists
who have crept into the federation
from certain parts of the country.
Merit Business Mems Support.
The business men of this country
cannot be told too often that the
proper course for them to pursue, and
a conserving patriotic course, is in
friendship for the labor unions under
leadership of the A. F. of L. Failure
to recognize the power of conserva-
tive patriotic labor unionism and to
express sympathy with it and will
ingness to classify its leaders as as
sociates of |. w. W. ism, extreme So
cialism and bolshevism, weaken the
power of those leaders with their fell
lows and tends to throw the whole
labor movement under the control of
the lawless extremists.

One of the valuable principles thai
Theodore Roosevelt taught and prac.
ticed was in his dealings with the
practical facts of life and his willing.
ness to accept part of his ideals with.
out insistence on securing everything
which he deemed to be useful. His
impatience at those who, discovering
defects in party or movement, ig.
nored the great benefit that it could
practically achieve and so refused
support, is well known.
Need Not Deny Defects.
One need not deny that there ap.
pear in the practical workings Of
trades unions defects which should
be rmeoved and tendencies which
ought not to be encouraged, but in
this upheaval of fundamental fore es
of society, and with attempts to de.
stroy all of our social progress by
the substitution of explosive, destruc.
tive and pessimistic theories, like Dol.
shevism and l. w. W.'ism, we should
be anxious to strengthen the loyal
elements in our labor groups and en-
able them to resist the wild extrem-
lists.
We should welcome alliance with
conservative, constructive organized
labor. Were Gompers and Mitchell
and Duncan to be beaten in this con-
vention followers of Lenine would re-
joice. Possibly, too, Bourbon en-
ployers would rejoice. Such employ
ers would be blind to their own inter-
ests and to the interests of society,
Many Ready to Cooperate.
1t is fortunate that many employ
ers-and their number is growing
see the truth and are determined not
to discourage organized labor, but to
cooperate with it in its plan for a
more friendly union of capital and
labor by collective bargaining and
other devices for peaceful settlement
and adjustment of the normal differ
ence that must arise in industry.
