tConTInued from pase one)
strength Of the labor unions has been
eXerted to wrest from capital some share
Of the profits for the wage earners
There has been perpetual struggle
by the workers TO maintain a tolerabl.
standard of existence: on the part Of
capital 10 amass greater profits At
times both sides could ignore the needs
Of the public. But now the very growth
Of the labor organizations has brought
into their ranks a great mass of the
consumers. The larger number of the
wage carriers now constitute a large
porconta &c of the people. The extension
OF industry has changed the nature Of
the previous struggle.
For whatever the worker received in
wages ne must spend for the necessities
of life. In addition he is always COM
PEELED to pay to the employer an exces-
sive profit on his own wa ges. The cost
of his living is determined by the sum
he earns plus the profit he is charged
on his own labor. And as a group labor
is forever prevented from lettering it's
lot because Of the profits exacted by the
employer. The hope of finer life is
never realized. SO long as consumers
are forced 10 pay extortionate profits
on their own earnings to a third inter
est there is no solution of the Industrial
problem.
We find that this third interest alb
solutely controls and dominates the man
agement of industry. It fixes wages and
controls working conditions. 1t fixes the
prices of commodities without regard
to the needs of society. or the neces-
sites of producers and consumers. We
have a democratic form OF government,
but an autocratic control Of industry.
I'VE exist under government, but by
industry we live. Under such a system
the majority Of a democracy can through
their government enjoy only such rights
and privileges as an autocracy in in
dustry permits them TO receive This
country was peopled by a race VIII
sought within its boundaries religious
freedom. 1t was established by their
descendants through revolutions as a
land Of political freedom. We now de-
mand that It become the home Of indus
trial freedom"

2 Though there was an Increase IN
the cost OF hides 10 the tanner the
prices Of his product-leather-adv
ed to point that could not be justified
by the cost Of producing It. This CON
clusion is supported by the high rates
Of return on investment received bv tan
ners.
g. The cost OF manufacturing shoes
Increased greatly between 1914 and 1917.
but as evidenced by the high rates of
return on investment-not an extent
that warranted the prices at which
manufacturers sold their products.
RETAILERS PROFITS INCREASE.
= The absolute margins of profits
taken by retail shoe merchants per pair
OF shoes grew wider their costs Of
shoes increased because their rate Of
profit remained substantially without
change.
5. AS a result the public had TO paw
prices for shoes that could not be tustf-
fed not only because retail shoe dealers
took too much profit but because the
dealer had to pass on to the consumer
the excessive profits received by butch
ers. for hides and also the excess profits
Of tanners and shoe manufacturers.
SOME RELIEF SUGGESTED.
The report Is accompanied bv three
recommendations for relief from the in
tolerable prices paid by consumers for
shoes"
These arc: Rigid enforcement of the
laws against monopolisuc control of
commodities; legislation prohibiting pro-
ducers of hides from engaging in the
tanning business, and adoption Of a de-
vice in the distribution Of shoes that will
acquaint the consumer with the selling
price Of the manufacturer.

Mooney, in California; the murderer,
Hilstrom, in Utah; the Anarchist Rob-
