Neutral and "TellS No Tales"

In order to save workingmen from
i'll health resulting from unsanitary
working conditions and to save man
ufacturers from mourning claims
for damages it is necessary for the
Public Health Service to examine
physically both the workmen and the
plant in which they work. Some
manufacturers and many workmen
fear examination, believing that it
will be used to make trouble for
them, and not realizing that undis-
covered defects in either plant or
man will surely lead to serious re-
suits. To such the Public Health
Service says that it is strictly neu-
trail and that it will not "tell tales.
Its object is to improve the health
Of the men and to enable the factory
to save money by making it's EN-.
ployes healthy by giving them heal.

JEWELS WARNING
TO X. II. MANAGERS


B. NJ Jewell, president of the
Railway Employees Department OF
the American Federation of Labor,
has warned the railroad managers
that the men would not stand for
notifications of agreements tend
ing to deprive shopmen and other
railway workers Of decent working
conditions and beyond that warning
is a story.
The propaganda of misstatement,
lies and suppression carried on by
railroad arrangements during the
past two years has tended to make
the public believe that the national
agreement was a connection of the
devil forced upon the poor, unoffen-
sive managers by the bold, bad,
vicious, debasing and debased rail
road administration controlling the
roads during government control.
When pinned down and forced to
tell the truth before the Senate
committee investigating the railroad
situation, executives of the roads
and their lawyers grudgingly ad-
mitted that the rules contained in
the national agreement had been in
force on many roads before the
period of federal control. They
further admitted that such rules
had been agreed to in conference
between actual operating officials
and representatives of employees
and were the result Of years of
thought and effort.
Let it be known that the condi-
tions surrounding man at work
mean more in many instances to
that man than does the wages he
receives The rules under which
he works makes all the difference
in the world and fixes his status
as man or beast. Also do those
rules affect his pay and, therefore
his life and that of his wife ano
children.
The men in the shops and on the
roads fought for, worked for and
paid for those agreements and rules
through and during many years
aye, back to the beginning of rail
reading, and let no one be under
the impression that they will tamely
submit to having those agreements
swept into the discard by a crew
of financial thugs drunk with &;
victory achieved through the misuse
| of the press and campaign o.
/ lying abuse of the men and the
/ government.
The total result of that campaign
of villification and abuse has beer
/ to make the average railroad EN-
ployee feel hurt, insulted and in.

WHEN COURTS TRIFLE
WITH LIBERTY
CA. F. of L. News letter.

In unfolding a wage decision by
the Kansas "can't-strike" court,
the supreme court of that state
said:
"The wages paid employees in a
| lie concern, and the determination
of the sufficiency of such wages is
question affected with the public
| interest"
Logically and unescapably, the
courts ruling leads to one of two
conclusions--either' salaries and in
comes of all persons connected with
the packing industry are affected
with the public interest and can ba
| lessened or increased by the court
or wage earners are chattels, sub
iect to the laws of trade.
If the court accepts the first
conclusion, it abandons American
traditions and guarantees and en-
braces government interference with
the individual, as did England in
the middle ages.
If the second conclusion is ac-
cepted the court not only abandons
Americanism, but it places wage
),
which even Injunction judges deny
in theory, but accept in practice.
To men who grasp the meaning of
liberty there is no difference be-
tween court sitting in judgment
on wages paid packing house en-
ployes and passing judgment on the
living cost of meat packers, the
salaries of their managers, or the
fees of their lawyers.
But the can't-strike" advocate
sees difference, though he dare
not confess it. To him the worker
is the same as in the days of feu-
dalism and those of Rome. To
him the worker must "be put in
his place"
And to create a shallow public
opinion to support their purpose
these feudalists use such terms as
"open shop" "free and independent
workers" and "the American plan"
During the last century workers
forced the annullment of conspiracy
laws, but today they face the same
opposition, known as labor injunc-
tions, company unions" and cant
strike" laws.
In each of these institutions au-
tocracy peeps through every seam
and joint.
There can be no middle ground in
labor's fight for the Declaration of
Independence and the federal con-
stitution.
There can be no substitute for
these immortal truths or evasion of
historic guarantees.
The Kansas supreme court indi-
Gates the measure of the judiciary's
willingness to rule and the quag-
mire that engulfs it when liberty is
trifled with.
Future historians will give or
gained labor its deserved credit for
singlehanded fight against those
who would destroy Americanism
while protesting Americanism.

dignant. Never would he have be-
licved that such lies as were told
of him could be spread so widely
and believed so readily nor did he
believe that all his attempts to re
flute such deliberate and willful
abuse and lying villification would
be, as they were, refused publica-
tion by all sections of the press,
with the exception of the papers
controlled by labor.
He has seen day after day and
month after month during the last
few years the most utterly pre-
posterous and ridiculous statements
regarding the wages he received and
the way he worked given promin-
ence in the press and he is at
loss to understand the mentality of
those who will belive such nonsense.
He has had forced on him the opinion
that there is no believing any rail-
road official and that the power
for harm and to do him injury
possessed by those officials is so
grea. that they can easily prevent
him telling his side of the story.
He is fully convinced that the
campaign of abuse has been con-
Quoted to inflame public opinion
against him, so that under cover
thereof all the rights he has won
through years of struggle could be
taken away from him. He has been
stigmatized as a wild beast intent
on destroying the prosperity of the
nation and as responsible for the
outrageous rise in freight and pass
enger rates, while all during the
war he worked for less wages than
did men of like trades and callings
worked for wages so per cent
less than paid in shipyards, factor
les and shops.
Let it be remembered that he
has kept his temper and been reas-
enable through it all, thinking that
the truth would overtake the lie
and that justice would finally be
rendered him. But his patience is
getting to the breaking point and
he will not submit to being forced
to work under un-American condi-
tions and without rules that pro-
tect his manhood.
Whatever happens he knows he
is not responsible; that the man
ayers have deliberately sought to
create a situation in which they
could set aside agreements and re-
vert to autocratic control of the
lives, fortunes and happiness of the
railroad workers, his loved ones
and those dependent upon him.
The managers have created the
situation now existing, cynically and
brutally Indifferent to the rights of
the public and the necessity for
transportation, and they will be
solely responsible for any stoppage
of work if they refuse to renew
agreements.

The G.. o. p. EDITORS
IN OPEN REBELLION

Republican editors, like everybody
else in the state, seem to know when
they have enough. Governor Hart
and his legislature have given them
much they didn't want and making
the editors and everybody else pay
for it-and pay enough. This
wouldn't be SO bad if King Louis
had given them at least some of
the things they do want.
At the meeting Of the State
Press Association in Rainier Park
the Republican editors held hasty
caucus" and started to mobilize
for war on the king. If they pass
a draft act and force the Republican
editors into an editorial army they
may be able to save what will be
left of their party after the No
vember battle in 1922.
His autocratic nibs has all the
Notifications and can stand siege
waged by his rebellious subjects I'M
til election day, unless the rebels
do something unheard of. That
something is to form an alliance
with JUS neutrals' dethrone the
king and establish a decent demo-
cratic state government, built on
sound principles-some such princi-
pies as Tom jefferson was thinking
about when he wrote the Declare
ton of Independence.
Or, if they don't want to wait
that long, start a big recall smoke
around the Olympia stronghold and
smoke the rascal out.
The Republican editors had plenty
of outstanding timber last year from
which to select pole to carry then
flag, but they chose the scrawniest
tree in the bunch.
And the Legislature - well that
gang is like a lot of burnt stumps
on logged-off land They had moth
ing to say. The king and his court
did the legislating.
These Republican editors deserve
no sympathy but they may get aid
from their political opponents il
they start something really worth
while against the common enemy.
In a first page editorial in the
Seattle Times last Sunday, Editor
Blethen said:
IF this thing goes on in two
years the Republican Party in this
state will be swept out of power
and in four years Bob Bridges vii
be elected governor
We hope so.

Sales Tax Is Unfair

Brantford, Ontario, July 16.-This
estimate of the Canadian sales tax
is printed in the Canadian Cooper
ator:
"The present writer had called
attention, in some of the leading
newspapers of Canada, to the in
justice to the consumers of the
sales tax and particularly to the
charging of it at the point of pro-
duction, thereby enabling everyone
through whose hands merchandise
passes between producer and con-
sumner to add his profit to the gov
eminent tax. He submitted a con-
servative estimate of the respective
profit charges on the tax of man
ufacturer, wholesaler and retailer,
showing a cost of So per cent for
collection charges and intimating
that in many lines it would cost
the consumer in profit charges a
dollar for every dollar collected on
behalf Of the government"
