HslMepIn Gount ty Republican
Convention Adopts Unusual
Labor P|anks in Platform,

Strange things are happening in
politics these days and anything may
be expected. Down in Minneapolis
last week the Republican county con-
vention went on record for a number
of good things in which labor is Wit
ally interested, thing so unusual in
a Republican convention Of latter
days.
The convention adopted "Labor's
Bill of Rights" This declaration,
which was made a. part Of the con-
vention platform, is a. statement of
advanced political principles having
to do with conditions affecting the
worker. In striking contrast with
former platform sops to labor, this
declaration is detailed and specific,
covering Is points.
The planks are collective bargain
:ug, equal pay for women for equal
work, the S-hour day, state compensa-
ton to injured workmen on broader
basis, better sanitation laws, a better
federal labor department, public en-
ployment, old age pension inquiry, a
cabinet officer on education. child
labor, federal bonus for service men,
no compulsory military training in
time Of peace, citizenship obligations
for immigrants, larger inheritance
taxes, income tax on official salaries,
and more rigid regulations of public
utilities.
The appearance of. such definite
sentiments as these in Republican
platform marks a. new attitude on the
part of the Republican party, a
change from g. casual, passing inter-
est, to a more complete recognition
OF the importance Of the issues in
:volved. >.= + !

safne, commitments. In fact, rivalry
in 4 most timely activity would be
desirable:

along: this line, they would better not
be forgotten.
