Mr.. Fassnacht delivered an opti-
mistic address on building and labor
conditions in South Bend in the fu-
.ture.
For the next three years" he
stated. I'VE can look forward 20 a

He also urged. speaking from the
employers viewpoint, greater coop
Grafton between employers and en-
pioyes in settling labor problems and
struck at profiteering practices when
he declared that 1t was for the good
of all classes that prices and wages
should not be boosted out OF sight
simply because building ia necessary.
Aside from advocating the cooper

made plain the stand Of the organic
ed laborer on questions of conflict
with capital.

He classed Z. II. Gary, steel mag

strong and because the workers were
not properly supported by the unions

He also declared that the facts in
the coal miners strike were not put
before the public in their proper
light.
Waste Time.

think them preposterous, but we
have not heard that the miner oc-
cupies a full hour in both going
down into the mines and coming out
of the mine for which he receives

The statistics prepared by W. G.
McAdoo state that previous 70 the
war the miner averaged but three

five day week they were simply
asking a means Of earning a fair
livelihood"
