SIX HOUR DAY
Don't Scare EN- In Canada.

Toronto, Canada. Contrary to the
policy of most newspapers, when dis
cussing social changes, the Toronto
Globe is not flippant in the matter of
a six-hour work day as advocated by
Lord Leverhulme, one of England's
most successful business men. The
Globe says:
"That great captain of British en-
dustry should present such a panacea
for industrial unrest is one of the
most significant signs of the times !"
In effect, the theory upon which
Lord Leverhulme bases his siX-hour
proposal is that by working machin-
cry longer hours, with shorter hours
for those attending it, the product
will be almost doubled and the work
ers will be able to secure comforts
and luxuries now undreamed of.
"Long factory hours have a dead
ening effect on the operatives" it is
stated From Ia years of age to 70
years of age is long life span, and

HOSTILE
To Postal Employees Organi-
zation In Report To Congress
Asks That Right Given To
Affiliate With A. F. of L.
Be Repealed.

Washington.-Po Postmaster General
Burleson reaffirms his hostility to the
postal employees organization in his
report to Congress. His last years
report is as follows:
"The conduct of these organizations
at this time is incompatible with the
principles of civil service and with
good administration of the postal ser
vice. They are fast becoming a men
ace to public welfare, and should no
longer be tolerated or condoned. (It
is earnestly recommended that the pro-
vision in the act of August "a, 1918
(giving employees the right to petition
Congress and to affiliate with the A.
F. of L. be repealed"
There is no reason to anticipate that
Congress will give heed to the demand
of the Postmaster General that the
postal employees shall <be deprived of
their statutory right of associating to-
gether fo, their mutual betterment.

passed through the fires of hell, and
we have come forth with new vision,
fired with new zeal to deal forth
justice for all mankind, and to rid the
world forever of the destructive forces
that would debase our morality and
destroy the best that is in US.
The organized workers of America
did not need this cleansing fire, en-
failing such sacrifices of blood and
wealth Labor's motives have always
been for the common veal Its hopes
have always been bound up inextric-

And so labor faces the new year and

By SAMUEL GOMPERS
President American Federation of
Labor

The new year is at hand
1t would be trite to say that new
things lie in wait.
We have grown accustomed to new
things.
The wat has been a new thing to
America, to labor, to capital, to gov
ernment-to all of US.
With the war have come new things,
new methods, new ideals, new inspira-
tions
We have had unusual problems to
solve, and we have employed unusual
methods in solving them.
Labor, perhaps more than any other
single element in our society, has new
er hesitated in adopting these new
methods, in adjusting itself to the
changed viewpoint, in putting its best
foot forward. Only labor has insisted
upon knowing that what was found
necessary to do would be for the bene-
fit of all and in furtherance of the
common good.
The new year may be considered

Council met in regular session with

about twenty delegates being present
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read, received and approved
Communication from the Interna-
tional Labor Press Association was
read and filed.
Delegates from the Machinists and
Molders' Unions stated that they have
selected John Cahalane to represent
them at the Mooney Conference to be
held in Chicago in few weeks and
asked the Council to also endorse him
as their representative and to defray
the expense. On motion the council
endorsed Cahalane as their represen-
tative also.
Communication from the Union
Label Trades Department was receiv-
ed.
Bakers delegates asked that COM
mittee be appointed to meet one of the
baker bosses who is employing man
that they say is not in good standing
with their organization. Request was
granted.

sentatives of their own choice "wheth-
er such representatives be at the time
an employe in the establishment or
not"
The company employs between 300
and 400 men, so per cent of whom are
union. The demand for the union shop
was not involved in the wage con-
.troversy, but the company refused to
treat with the unions representative
On the ground that he was not an en-
ploye The company justified its ac-
tion on the ground that the national
war labor board had declared where
union and non-union men work to-
gether and the employer meets only
! with employees engaged in such estab-
lishments, the continuance of such
conditions shall not be deemed griev-
ance.
The workers show that prior to last
year grievances were handled by union
representatives but that lately a
change has been made. Umpire Lind
holds that the ruling of the company
referred to contains provision that
the war labor board retains the right
to act under certain conditions.
"In an establishment where the prac,
tice had been uniform one way or the
other" said the umpire, "it was quite
natural for the board. to lay down the
rule that the continuance of such
practice during the war should moi
constitute a grievance, but where, as
in this case, there had been an appar.
emily arbitrary change, such change
might we'll constitute a grievance"
