THE UNION LABEL AND MORAL
PRINCIPLES. INVOLVED

"In my judgment there is back OF
the union label agitation a great
moral reason. We should buy union
made article, not only out of loyalty
to union labor, but out of loyalty to
the moral principle it DEGREES, which
is that men should work under pleas
ant conditions and have living wages.
The union label is a guarantee that
the article was made under conditions
that are somewhat fair. We should
make this appeal to the public on this
moral ground. When man buys a
union-made article he says to the
world, 4 do not want to buy goods
which represent the misery and the
tears of underpaid workmen.' ;"
When Mayor Hodgson of st. Paul
gave expression to the above words,
he went right to the heart of the un-
derlying principle upon which the
union label is founded, as it was IN
protest against inhuman and unfair
conditions of labor and living that the
union label came into being, and be-
cause its mission is to make life the
more worth living is the reason for
extension of its application over such
a broad field as we find it covering
today.
Even the so-called "direct action
ist" is forced to admit that there is
no more direct manner of securing re-
lief from unfair conditions of labor
than by using his purchasing power
in discriminating against articles IN
everyday use upon which the emblem
of air labor does not appear.
The Labor Movement and it's aux
iliary the Union Label stand ex-
clusively for the human element, as
represented by the men and women
who are doing the worlds work in
industry, and by securing fair treat
ment for them, which assures their
fullest development physically, moral
ly and industrially, safeguard is
placed around the children, which as
sures the perpetuation of stronger
and better race.
When purchasing goods bearing the
union label let US not think so much
of the .label attached thereto as we do
what the label stands for. Let US Wis
ualize the men and women who made
the commodity, working in clean, sani-
tary factories for wages which permit
them to keep their children in school,
fitting themselves to take their place
in the world on an equality with all
other children.
By keeping the human element in
volved ever in mind, we are bound to
become more consistent in our demand
for goods bearing the union label, and
thus keep from buying goods (which
represent the misery and the tears OF
underpaid workmen."

THE LABOR PRESS

The labor press is the most
powerful and effective instrument
within the grasp of the working
class; it's sole mission is to give
labor a means for public express
sion; it sounds the alarm when
the Grab-It-Alls approach the
possession of labor and attempt
to rob it or it's constitutional
rights and interfere with its pur-
suit of happiness.

CONFERENCE ON WHEAT
FREIGHT RATES

September 10Th has been set as
the date for the conference regard
ing the milling situation IN the Rio
Grande valley. Eugene Fox, traffic
manager of the +. p. & s. w. and
w. r. Brown of FL Paso, division
freight agent of the Santa Fe Rail-
way will represent the Kansas City
District Freight Traffic committee OF
the railroad administration at the
conference. The New Mexico mil
lers association will also have COM
mittee present. The conference will
be held at the office of the state
corporation commission.
Excessive rains seriously affected
the wheat crop in the Rio Grande
valley and the mills at Las Vegas
Bernalillo, Albuquerque, Belen. So
corro, and other points will have
to ship in wheat to keep running
But the millers will have to buy
wheat to the east and north at points
nearer the primary markets OF Gal
weston and Kansas City.
The government price is fixed 10,
the primary markets and the price
at shipping points is the primary
market price less freight. The fur
ther the shipping point is from mark
ct, the lower the price which the
producer receives. Under this me-
thod of price fixing, wheat is lower
in the Rio Grande valley than al
Clovis or other points nearer Gal
weston or Kansas City, The miller'
ask that they be given a chance tc
buy wheat at price that will en-
able them to sell flour in competi-
ton with Kansas mills
The u. s. Grain Corporation write
the commission that this is a mat
ter of rates only and declines tc
take any part in the efforts to helf
out the milers complaining. The
railroads on the other hand are
showing strong interest and send
representatives to investigate anc
propose relief.
The milling in transit feature IS al
so called to the attention OF the
commission by ]. X. Koontz, genera
freight agent of the Santa Fe Th,
rate on flour is five cents hundrec
higher as rule, giving the local mill
er this advantage in competition will

PECOS VALLEY FRUIT
RATES TO ADVANCE

Proposed changes in the freight
rates on apples. other fruit and vege-
tables out of New Mexico and par
ticularly the Pecos Valley to points
in the state, Texas, and Louisiana
will be considered by the Kansas
City District Freight Traffic Com
mittee on September 10th. the state
corporation commission has been ad-
vised.
II appears that the rates from Kan
sas into the same territory and for
like distances are higher than from
The Peoos Valley. 1t is proposed 10
raise the rates out of New Mexico
rather than lower the rates out Of
Kansas which covers a much wider
consuming territory. The raise ap-
plies to car loads
The proposed rates are based with
relation 10 the Shreport full dif-
ferentiai scale for the average dis
tances from the Rosweil-Ar'esia
group In revising the apple rate i
was found wise 20 revise rates OF
otter fruits and vegetables.
Those desiring TO submit their
views IN writing should do so not
later than September 10th.

Of the Chino Copper Company. He
