"Well, I'm back again to

Christmas rush." said a
bright little woman as she
stepped into the managers
office.
That woman worked here
many, many years ago.
Then she was married, but
each year as Christmas
rolls around she comes in
for a few weeks work. To
quote her again, she "makes
her gift money that way,
and keeps IN touch with the
world"
We need a couple dozen
such women. If you'd like

VOTE FOR LIBRARY
PROPOSITIONS

The Journal cannot better call
attention to needs of our Public
Library than by giving our readers
the following letter from Miss Mabel
Ashley, librarian. The Library has
been shamefully neglected and the
wrong cannot be helped more by
Labor than by casting their votes
for the two Library propositions
which will be submitted to the peo-
pie at next Tuesdays election.
Editor Labro Journal:
Can you not bring to the special
attention of the Laboring People in
the next issue of the Labor Journal
the question of the two Library pro-
positions which are coming up at
next weeks election. The majority
OF our borrowers come from modest
homes. from Just the plain people"
as we call ourselves, fully two-thirds
or our children come from families
where the father signs himself La
borer' and these children are the
very ones who read our best books.
1t is to these that the Library means
most. The wealthy are some of
them not so concerned in the well
fare of our public Library because
they have the means of purchasing
their own books and the PROPOSE
tion means to them merely an in
crease in their taxes. But conditions
at the Library have become so bad
that even the City Officials see that
something must be done. Our books
are simply wearing out from almost
constant use; we have upon our
shelves today between 1000 and
5000 volumes, ragged, dirty and
unfit for circulation, books which
any ordinary Library would have
discarded years ago, but which we
must hand out to our boys and girls
because we have no funds with
which to replace them. How can
we teach them the care and love of
the finer things in life Call of which
can be found in books of the bet
ter sort) when the books themselves
are in this condition? How can we
help people to find out for them
selves hte real facts without the best
and most up-to-date books? We can
not begin to meet tn demands made
upon us because we do not have the
sources of information which should
be in every public Library, and it is
high time that the people should be
aroused to the facts in the case. An
industrial center such as the City of
Everett should first of all have
first class collection of Industrial
books on all industrial subjects rep
resented here. instead we have a
mere handful. I trust you can help
us in our attempt to meet more full
ly the demands of industry in this
city for printed information
Please remember that the Library
is at your service as we'll as asking
for your support.
Sincerely yours,
MABEL ASHLEY,
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1919-11-14
THE OLD STYLE OF
FIXING" THINGS

1T used to be the 'caper, but it
doesn't go now"
1t has been the custom in politi-
cal campaigns, to nominate candi-
dates and "fiX things" political in
the back rooms of banks and bar
rooms. 1t was worked successfully
for many, many years. Now, under
the primary laws, the old style,
though still resorted to, is not so
sure of success; for the reason that
the public must be taken into the
nomination business. The political
convention has met its finish.
However, the old style stock in
trade is not exhausted entirely.
Money and lies are still used. though
less effectively.
These two still remain to the poll
tical corruptionists. They are be-
ing used in this campaign. The op-
ponents of Labor have injected into
the campaign a list of lies as long
as the moral Cor immoraD law.
A few for instance;
Around the pool rooms and cigar
stores they say that If Turner be
elected the town will be closed up
tighter than a drum on Sundays
and nobody will be allowed to have
any fun. That's a lie. Nobody can
legally close pool rooms, movie
shows or anything of that character.
If he did he would be violating In
stead of inforcing law. On the other
hand if Jones be elected he will "let
things run wide open" If Jones
did that he would be violating the
laws he will be sworn to enforce If
elected. That's no lie.
Turner, if elected, will enforce
the laws impartially. All the peo-
pie who know him believe him to be
a man of that character.

LABOR IS ENTITLED TO THE truth
Z IN THE NEWSPAPERS Of AMERICA

Read the following strong pro-
test from the American Alliance for
Labor and Democracy against false
hood in the newspapers;
But a few months have passed
since American newspapers were all
but unanimous I'm their praise of
American trades-unionism.
A movement that was worthy of
the highest esteem in the greatest
crisis the nation has known must
have about it character of high
type.
Such movement is entitled to
truth in American newspapers, not
only in war time, but at all times.
Much that is not truth is being
printed today.
Much Of untruth has been printed
about the steel strike. Much Of
untruth already has been printed
about the coal miners.
The New York Evening World
makes the statement that, The ele-
ment responsible for this colossal
menace (the coal strike) is the
same element that has been trying
to seize the leadership of organized
labor in other industries prepara-
tory to seizing the industries them
selves"
That statement, vague though it
is, conveys a meaning utterly at
variance with the fact. The Even
ing World continues:
1T is the same element that per-
suaded foreign-born steel workers
to Drecipitate the steel strike"
Further on:
Call them 'Bolsheyiks,' 4. w.
VS. Reds 'Radicals'-the forces
that are reaching for the control
of organized labor in the United
States are everywhere essentially
the same. Disappointed of success
in the steel strike, they strive to
score in the coal fields a victory
which may react to their immediate
advantage not only in the steel in
dustry but in others"
And, we are editorially informed;
For months such forces have
been at work among the coal min
crs' unions-particularly among the
alien miners-preaching soviet gov

Committee Reports

The Shipyard Committee report
ed that the management of, the

dock Company had said they had
nothing against the agreement, but
would not sign it.
The committee appointed to in
vestigate the proposition of the
Clerks Union to place several de-

unfair list reported the Clerks had
recinded their action in regard to
the department stores, but would
place Buffers, the Star and the Navy
on the unfair list for refusal to sign
the 6 O'Clock closing agreement. The
Council concurred in the action of
the clerks as to these three stores.
The Campaign Committee report
ed on campaign expenses and was
granted another week to complete
its collections. The remaining
shortage will be pro-rated to the
unions which have not remitted
their share.

RED CROSS SEAL
SALE COMMENDED

The following appeal for the Red
Cross Seal Sale has been sent out
from the State Federation headquar-
ters:
Greeting:
The annual Red Cross Christmas
Seal Sale of the Washington Tuber-
culosis Association, is now being
conducted. The organized labor
movement of the intire world has
always rendered its unqualified sup
port to all associations having for
their purpose combating the white
e"-tuberculosis.
No class of people suffers from
this menace in as large a measure
as the wage earners of the world.
Twelve hundred children under the
age of five years die from it every
year in the United States. and a
total of 10000 persons altogether
are killd by it annually in America.
1t menaces every community, every
home and every individual. and yet,
tuberculosis is durable and prevent
able.
1t is useless for me to elaborate
on the extent of this menace, as the
workers everywhere have been
brought, through bitter experience,
to full understanding of it.
therefore earnestly urge fullest CO.
operation and support of the drive
now being conducted throughout
the State by the Red Cross Christ
mas Seal Sale of the Washington
tuberculosis Association. The cam
paign headquarters is located at 800
Securities Building, Seattle, and the
executive secretary is Mrs. B. b.
Buchanan.
