| LABOR'S NEW POLICY
Years will have passed before the
old-style statesmen realize the i'm.
portance Of the vote-29,O00 to 5000 |
by which the Montreal convention
Of the American Federation of Labor
committed their 100000 members
to the Plumb plan of government
ownership and democratic operation
of railroads. There was the crossing
of the Rubicon for the movement
which had been so carefully shep-
herded by Samuel Gompers, through
40 years, away from the idea that Ia
Dor could control the political state.
One of the biggest men in the con-
enthusiastically Green of the
United Mine Workers-declared that
the time had come when labor must
take it's share of political burdens,
and that he welcomed the program of
government ownership because it gave
a new reason for active and united
political work by the organized work.
ers. Democratic operation meant SELF
The workers must develop their full
faculties to solve the problems in
volved in railroad operation. They
must make the operation of the roads
democratic in fact, and this meant that
labor must be in politics as a unit
and for it's own program.

DISABLED SOLDIERS sTUNG
Disabled soldiers who have under
gone vocational training are the latest
class to be made victims of a Joker in
an act of congress-
These crippled and injured veter-
ans were led to believe that the new
law would give an increase of $40 a
month in pay to those who were in
! training under the vocational educa-
ton board. That was what the law
was drafted to give them But after
it had been signed someone discover
ed that it had been changed some
where in its route through congress
so as to limit this payment to such
men, in course Of training, as are
living where maintenance and sup
port is above the average and CON-
paratively high"
The board announces, with regret,
that as the new law does not give it
any means of determining what is
comparatively high," or of getting
the average cost of maintenance, the
payments must be delayed until it
has arranged some rough and ready
way of determining these points
There must first be made a nation
wide survey of the cost of food and
shelter, and this will have to be done
through district officers Then the
board will have to guess at whether
congress meant comparatively high"
to refer to localities or to times.
There are 365 lawyers in congress
and only a dozen farmers.

Nearly 81, 500 a Year Necessary

From Special cor,e,nordss+

LONDON, Oct. 1O.-The cost of ean-
cation in England is soaring. Figures
recently published by Oxford and Cam
bridge men place the cost of uniyer
sity expenses, excluding food. clothing
and laundry, at very slightlv under
$500 for the year of three terms. One
estimate, which is worked out in great
detail, gives this figure at 1856 6s. sd
hen all expenses are considered t is
ssaid that the university man can hardly
hope to do with less than 1850 year.
Including scholarships and grants.
the average scholars income is placed
at about S120 a year. Ex-service men
who attend universities on govern
ment grants receive 5000 yearly, SO
that they are comparatively we'll off.
A table of actual expenses last year
starts off with the preliminary sum

crockery. small articles of furniture,
cap and gown, etc. During the first

ran the total up to s79. Sports and
other subscriptions accounted for more

British Union Acts
TOAidDOckWorkers
And Check Unrest
Plan Revived to Guarantee
Weekly Wages for Those
Who Report Whether Men
Are Given Employment
or Not
From a Special Correspondent

LONDON, Oct. 10.-Idleness among
London's dockworkers and tho pros
pect of q winter with many thousands
Of them unemployed have led to the
revival Of the plan of guaranteed week
ly wages for those dockworkers who
report regularly for work, whether they
are given actual employment or not.
at present the labor about the docks
is conducted on the "casuar' system.
1t IS hit or miss affair The long
shoremen are seldom employed regu-
larly, but show up each morning on the
chance of finding work for the day.
They are engaged for halliday periods,
so that man who finds work in the
morning may not have anything to do
IN the afternoon.
The plan drawn up by the Transport
Workers Federation would completely
DO away with this casual system. All
dockworkcrs would be registered at a
central exchange. Then they would as
sumo more or less the status of sal
AIRED employees, ga week being guar
anteed them, whether or not there was
need for their services.
The sponsors of this plan assert that
1T would not necessarily be as expen-
siVe us IL seems at nrSt glance, because
they would have the central labor ox-
change form q sort Of clearing house-
general headquarters Of the docks
from which men would be apportioned
as they might be needed to the different
employers They argue that each en-
ployer then would be assured that he
would find workmen where and when
he might need them, and that the un-
rest and discomfort now fostered among
the men by their uncertain livelihood
would be dispelled.
The cost Of carrying out the plan is
estimated as about 100000 a year on
the supposition that 10 per cent of the
registered men would be permanently
unemployed. Instead of proportioning
this expense to each employer with re-
gard to his present expense for labor
1t is proposed to place tax of four
pence on each ton of freight handled.
1t is recognized that this obviously
would place directly on the consumer
the added burden, but it is claimed
that he also would feel any increase of
salary lists, SO that the simpler propo-
sition might as we'll be accepted.
The present minimum wage which
the lockers receive is 16 shillngs a
day. No intimation of the attitude of
the employers of dock labor toward the |
industrial maintenance scheme, as it is
termed, has yet been given.

free lunch and free cigars, and a
general enjoyable time, besides the
very important discussion of large
enterprise that may be secured for
