FROM KANSAS

The following is from Mrs. Eve
Gasehe who lives at Waverly,
Kansas, and is sent for the benefit of
the Oranges of Fulton County:
Coffey County, Kansas
Pomona Grange
AT the November meeting of our
Pomona each year we give all our
time to the discussion and adoption
oil measures we want to send to the
State Grange.
Resolutions Adopted
To amend the State Constitution to
permit counties that elect single or
unmarried delegates to State Grange
to elect another single member in
order to give all counties their full
number Of votes.
To ask the legislature to enact a
Farmers Land Title law without any
"jokers" in it.
Ask Congress to provide for a
deep water way from Chicago to the
Atlantic and from Kansas City to the
Gulf of Mexico to aid transportation
of farm products and other trade.
To forbid and cabinet or other
officer of the nation from multiplying
o. r prohibitory law by a ruling.
pIOylde TOR the open shop plan of
cork for all employees, including
those from labor unions who really
want to work.
Compel all railways to pay the
u. S. government the money they
owe it before the Congress grants
them any more aid.
Ask that labor wages, manufactur-
ing, transportation and marketing
costs be adjusted to a level with the
costs and prices of farm products.
Ask Congress to limit immigration
to others who can read and write the
English language, and who under
stand and support the U. S. plan of
government.
To treat as enemies of the nation
all who refuse to work, and try to
induce others to quit work, or pre-
vent any one from working.
Demand that Congress give us an
efficient law compelling manufac-
turers of all the necessaries of life to
place honest labels on their products.
Favored disarmament as far as the
safety of the nation will permit. =
Thus came long and spirited dis
cussion of a resolution by a solicitor
of the u. S. Grain Growers or.
ganization for our Pomona to endorse
that society and ask the State Grange
to endorse it. The outcome of the dis
cussion was that the Grange does moi
endorse, federate, or affiliate with
other organizations, however.
Many members had gone home
and only 81 were present to vote. J.
voted to endorse, 8 voted nay, and 81
asked for further consideration of the
questions.
The 100 per cent membership, the
heavy overhead expenses and tn,
handicap it would be toN small farm
ers who have little grain to sell, tn,
tieing up of the grain trade Of ;
community or county were features
not liked by our members.
There is never any time for tn,
literary program at these -annua
meetings of our Pomona, and ye
they are watched with most interes
of any Of our county meetings by al
our farmers.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

nobody swatted the fly.
Operations were rare.
orchards were never sprayed.
milk was served from a pail.
Europe was ten days away.
The Chinaman still wore his
queue.
tuberculosis was the "great
white plague"
children seldom used tooth
brush.
soothing syrups were given to
babies.
anybody was nurse.
The next twenty-five years will
bring new leaders, new thoughts,
new methods. The changes will be
as numerous and desirable as those
on which we now look back. The
Tribune will continue to light the

will find it worth the price of a years

Wage Reduction Made
By u. S. Steel Corp.

Judge Ebert H. Gary chairman of the United States Steel
Corporation reduction in day labor rates from 81
cents to 80 cents hour effective Monday, August 49,
This cut equivalent to reduction of about 20
cent from the rate established July &c. when time and
half for overtime abolished although change in the
81 cents hour rate made at that time Other
and salaries will be equtaby adjusted to the rate for day
labor.
Wage reductions necessary at this time according to
Judge Gary due to the prevailing low selling prices of steel
compared with production costs.
While the corporation has made but two official price
ductons reports the weeks that has been forced far
below its last official price lists by independent competition
have been confirmed by Judge Gary.
These claims also plainly borne by the last quar-
terly earning statement of U. S. Steel
Judge Gary said:
n view of the prevailing low selling prices of steel
pared to costs of production it to make reduc
ons in rates. and therefore will recommend to sub
say companies that the rates of day labor be
creased to 80 cents hour to become effective Monday
August 49, and that other and salaries be equtab
adjusted"
Present day of labor in the pay of the
poraton at the rate of 81 cents hour $3.50 for
hour day. Common labor after the present into
feet, will be getting So day for tenhour day.

Judge Landis' Views.
Wasteful Conditions.
False Prosperity.
Work and Wealth.

Personal contact with many arti.
sans Of the building trades during the
last six weeks has shown me that
many Of them have been misied into
the belief that rules and conditions
producing waste, curtailing produc-
ton, or monopolizing industry would
In some way result to their advantage,
but obviously such temporary advant'
age spells permanent detriment TO
them In common with their fellows."
These words, altered to apply to
employers as well as employees. are III
to be memorized by everybody who
works for living In the United
States.
They were uttered by Judge lands
on his latest conference with contrac'
tors and workingmen regarding the
building trades deadlock In Chicago.
"A rule forbids plumber under GER
tain conditions to ride by automobile
or bicycle to his work. Why? Be.
cause by going slowly he draws pay
for more time on the Job. Another
rule allows a worker. under certain
conditions. full days pay for one
hour overtime. that Is. sixteen hours
pay for nine hours work.
A combination of builders. bidding
for q contract, enables tho successful
man to charge 81, 900 or 500. 900 more
than the fair price in an open competi.
ton. A combination of materials
works In the same way In the same
field. What do such practises mean
Simply that workers shall be paid for
work they do not do. that employers
shall be paid for goods that they do
not deliver.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1921-08-21
Permanent Detriment.

Thus the second greatest industry
In the country. the construction in
dustry. which has $4,000, 900 depend
ents, which claims to account for
VT ,000, 000.0 900 of the nations prop
erty. is kept half idle and PROSTATE at
a time when millions are eager for it's
products and await only possible
prices to make their purchases.
Judge Lands calls this permanent
detriment to labor. capital and the
public. The condemnation is too mild.
The idea that something besides de-
cent headwork and handwork will pull
this country out Of its troubles is an
idea that dies hard. 1t Is not dying
fast enough.
Yet. as Senator Reed said the other
day, there Is no rule. restriction.
regulation or statute ever passed that
has created a dollar wealth
Every honest dollar there is In the
world II the product OF honest toil'-
handwork and headwork. For every
dollar Of wealth there is in the world
somebody's back has bent" and
somebody's brow has sweat"
Only out of the wealth actually pro-
duced can wages and profits be paid
In the long run. To collect or try
to collect wages for hours Of labor not
performed or profits on services ana
goods not delivered 10 the way. not
to get rich. but to get poor.
These heavy. but important facts.
apply to many industries that are now
moribund.
The construction industry has no
monopoly OF the get-rich-quick schem-
ers and shirkers. 1t only happens TO
be the most conspicuous because II
operates In large cities, with all that
such operation implies.
