GRATEFUL

Hamilton is fortunate in having
two big manufacturing plants to come
to its assistance when most needed.
We refer to the Champion Coated
Paper Company and the Fordson
Tractor Company The Press has not
always agreed with the Champion
Company in some things in the past,
but the Press is not ungrateful nor
unmindful Of the big favor this COM
pany conferred in coming to the city's
aid when its electric plant broke
down a week ago. The Press at this
time, on behalf of labor of Hamilton,
desires through this means to extend
its thanks to the Champion Coated
Paper Company for its kind act. Also
to the Fordson Tractor Company do
we extend our appreciation for its
assistance rendered the city. If il
hadn't been that these two big
plants furnished current just when
they did, most Of the city would
have been in total darkness. AS il
is, with their offer to help, Hamilton
is in pretty fair condition, 50 far as
light is concerned, for the winter
Hamilton is much indebted to the
Champion Coated Paper Company and
the Fordson tractor plant.

"DEFLATING" LABOR

Labor" says:
While editorial writer's in the cap
italistic press are proclaiming that
American labor is laying down on
the job and is not producing in suf-
.icient quantities to meet the needs Of
the nation, the great captains" in
the textile industry have stared out
TO debate labor with a vengeance.
Last week J. L. Benton, managing
director of the Philadelphia Textile
Manufacturers Association, announc-
ed that his organization is to begin a
campaign aimed at the destruction Of
radical unionism" and the wedding
out Of a large number Of inefficient
workers. He asserts that between
10000 and 5000 textile workers
may lose their jobs this winter be-

FINE IDEA

The union label is power fo1 good
to ali clases Of workers, if they 81 uld
be induced to employ it; but the
facts are that but a small portion Of
the money earned by the members Of
labor organizations is expended for
goods that bear the union label, for
help that works under the emblem of
the shop card, or that wears the union
button.
While we fully realize the difficult
ty in obtaining union goods, yet we
also know that this difficulty is the
result of neglect on the part of mem
bers to demand the union label goods.
1t has been suggested that thirty day
campaigns be inaugurated in all in
dustrial centers from time to time for
the furtherance of union label goods.
A campaign of thirty days duration
in any industrial center, participated
in by the members of labor unions and
their families, would place union label
goods on the shelves of every store in
that community; it would also union
ize numbers of factories producing
goods Of general consumption. Like
wise, your patronage for such goods
produces the payroll for the union
workers, while patronage for non
union goods produces the profits for
employers with which to
fight organized labor.

Herbert G. Hoover, former federal
food administrator, a conference
with the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor held
in Washington the other day, said
that labor must do its share in the
elimination of industrial faults and
ills which bring about unemployment
Labor has always tried to do its share
towards this end, but has always
been opposed by some of the large
manufacturing interests at every
turn. Labor has turned out so much
production since the war that thou
sands and thousands of laboring men
and women have worked themselves
out Of a job. This is the result of
speeding up production.

HOLSTEIN BREEDERS
IMPROVE LIVESTOCK

The Holstein meeting at Port
Huron, Monday, March 8, will be
one of the most important events
in livestock circles that has yet
convened in this part of the state.
d. ID. Aitken, President of the Hol-
stein-Friesian Association of
America; H. w. Norton, President
of Michigan Holstein Association
and a number of other leaders
with state and national reputa-
tions will address the meeting.
The session will constitute one
of the most important steps the
Farm Bureau has yet taken to-
ward the improvement of livestock
of the county, and every stocman
interested in either grades or
pure breds should arrange to at
tend.
The meeting will be held in the
Court Room of the City Hall, and
the forenoon session will convene
at 10:30. A number of breeders
of the county are interested in or
ganizing a Holstein Breeders AS

MANY ISSUES
BEFORE VOTERS
Members of Lower House Will be
Picked at November Election

Michigan voters, in addition to
balloting on presidential electors
next November will elect l3 MEM
bers of the lower house. of con-
press and a complete state ticket.
Besides a governor, lieutenant
governor and other state executive
officials, 80 state senators and 100
state representatives will be chos-
en-. No senatorial election is sched-
uled.
Candidates for the legislature,
governor and acknowledgement
and congress will be nominated
in the general primary to be held
August 81. The time limit for fill
ing nominating petitions for those
offices expires July 81, and all as
pirants for places on the primary
ballot are required to file before
that date affidavit showing their
party affiliations. Candidates for
other state executive offices and
members Of certain state boards
will be nominated by the party
conventions to be held within 40
days after the primaries.
Four constitutional amendments
are certain to be placed on the bal
lot in November, and some others
are possible. Whether prohibition
will become an issue again de-
pends upon the supreme court.
Validity of the legislatures rati-
fication of the federal prohibition
amendment has been attacked by
the wet advocates on the ground
that a referendum is required for
such ratification. Should the su-
preme court uphold this conten-
tion, petitions filed by the Michi-
gan State Hotelmen's association
will place that question on the
ballot.
The four proposed amendments
certain for submission are:
To empower the legislature to
fix salaries of the secretary of
state, the state treasurer and the
auditor-general.
To extend the provisions of the
absent voters law to include per-
sons engaged in teaching in public
schools and the immediate fami-
lies of members of the legislature.
To give the legislature power to
limit hours of working women and
Ichildren.
To authorize municipalities thru
legislative sanction to condemn
more land than is needed in ac-
quiring parks, boulevards and
streets.
Petitions also have been filed
with the secretary of state seek
ing a referendum on a proposal
that all children between the ages
Of five and sixteen be compelled to
attend the public schools. The
movement is aimed at parochial
schools.
One other amendment which
may get a place on the ballot is
the "home rule" measure, which
seeks to visit in municipalities the
power to determine franchise
rights of public utilities doing
business within their boundaries.
