NEW LAW EXPECTED TO
PUT END TO CHILD LABOR

The revenue act, signed by the
president, has not gone about
sowing seeds Of rejoicing among
the people of America, but
nevertheless It's provisions con-
fer one positive boon on the
country. We refer of course,
to the new means which it has
found for striking down the evils
of child labor by use Of the
congressional power to levy
taxes. Hereafter any mine or
quarry which employs children
under the age Of 10 years, or
any manufacturing establish
ment which employs children un-
der the age Of IA years, or works
children between IA and 16 years
Of age more than eight hours a
day, will find a fiat tax of 1O
per cent levied on its net prof
It's, over and above any and all
the taxes imposed by the nu-
merous other clauses of the rev
enue act. 1t is to be assumed
that this provision will stamp
out wrongful child labor quite
as effectively as the former law
was controlling 1t before the Su-
preme court declared that that
particular use of the federal po-
lice power was unconstitutional.

Set WAGE Record.

The highest scale of wages ever paid
in Westmoreland (Pa.) county was in
force in 1913, the miners average
daily pay being about &c. an increase
Of nearly So over 1917. The average
yearly earning of miners for 1913 was
$1,000, In some instances this sum
reaching $4,000. While $3.50 was the
monthly average, many miners drew
as high as $400.

What Wage Increase Would Mean

What Wage Increase Would Mean.
1t Is calculated that $200,000,OOO will
be added to the annual expense Of the
collieries Of Great Britain and 81 ton
to the cost of coal to the consumer II
the miners are granted the higher pay,
shorter hours and modern methods,
which they demand, and If they do not
produce more coal under those condi-
uons.
Although the miners in America are
fewer, 1t is pointed out, the production
there is enormously greater, owing to
better working conditions, modern ma
chinery and modern mine equipment.
Sympathy for the miners In their de-
mands Is somewhat withheld on the
ground that they were given prefer
ence over others In rehabilitation.
Mine owners claim that, because of
this, the workers should place the
supply of coal on a satisfactory basis
before raising questions of hours and
wages.

CNlTE ALL STEEL WORKERS
Movement on Foot to Pool Resources
With the Object Of Achieving
One Great Organization.

A countrywide campaign to unionize
steel workers is being conducted by
"a unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor whose member
ship totals more than $1,5OO,OOO, ac-
cording to the Illinois State Federation
of Labor news letter.
"Profiting from the bitter experience
of 20 years struggles" says the letter.
"the present government from its In
ception, has proceeded upon the real
ization that it is folly for any craft
organization, however strong or skilled,
to attempt to organize singlehanded
in the iron and steel industry. To do
so would be to court sure defeat.
'The only way offering a prospect OF
success is for all the unions involved
to unite their resources in great
drive for organization, and to STICK
Loyalty together till the big Job Is done.
The movement must be as wide as the
Industry. Hence all those Organiza-
tions with jurisdictions over workers
employed in the iron and steel Industry
have been enlisted in this campaign.
"These "a international unions have
a membership of more than 1,5OO'OOO.
They cover the iron and steel industry
in all it's branches, from the men who
dig the coal and iron ore, through all
the wonderful complexities Of the in
dustry, to the men who load out the
finished products at plants. Within
their ranks places are provided for all
Of the more than 100000 iron and
steel workers, regardless of their color,
sex. or occupation. There is not
man, woman or child In the whole In
dustry but who can affiliate with some
one or another Of the cooperating
unions"
