UNEMPLOYMENT IN
SEATTLE

Unemployment in Seattle is in
creasing. There are, according to
Union Record report, three thous-
and married men with ten thousand
dependents out of work in that city.
Those workers with savings are
rapidly dissipating them.
The Record says: Negotiations are
under way which may turn over the
$4,000 collected by unions and civic
bodies for the industrial hospital,
which was not built, to the Social
Welfare League for its emergency
work in the present crisis.
Much Of the employment and con-
sequent distress is attributable in a
large extent, many are convinced, to
the open shop activities, past and
present of the Associated Industries
and their deluded followers. These
people have created nothing but in
dustrial discord and unemployment.
The situation is acute and officers
of the Association Of Unemployed
say that more funds for the relief
Of distress is imperative.

AMERICANISM AND
HONOR TESTED BY
DEEDS, NOT WORDS
american Federationist News

letter.
The seamen's strike and the print
ing trades strike show how Amer
lcanism and honor can be debased
by employers.
Vessel owners are attempting to
cut wages, and in their greed for
profits have cast aside every pre-
tense and regard for an American
merchant marine.
They have even refused to agree
that they will give preference to
Americans in employment and insist
on multiplying the Seamen's law that
they may compete with the cheap
est labor on the seven seas.
The Seamen's law is based on
the proven fact that American stand
ards on American vessels force other
maritime nations to meet this stand
ard to hold their employees when they
arrive at American ports.
This system, the seamen prove by
statistics, is attracting the Ameri-
can boy to the sea.
The seamen also show that sea
power is not in vessels, but in men
that ships can be easily built, but
an American spirit can not be in
culcated in non-American seamen
working under debasing conditions.
The seamen and marine engineers
offered to submit the issue to Presi-
dent Harding, and agreed to abide
by his decision, but this was re-
fused.
The public press and statesmen
have Numbered for an American
merchant marine, but these voices
are silent on. the vessel owners
policy while the stage is set to
smash the unions of seafarers, kill
the seamen's law and get hold of
the hundreds of merchant vessels
owned by the government, which
will then be disposed Of at handsome
profits by business buccaneers.
This is the "Americanism" that
vessel owners, who own stock in
foreign steamship companies, their
political agents and editorial scrib-
lers believe in.
The "Americanism" of vessel own
ers is paralleled by the "honor" of
printing trades employers who
agreed with their organized work
ers to install the 44-hour week in
periodical and commercial printing
establishments on May /, 1921.
This agreement was made two
years ago and checked a shorter
work week movement at that time,
as the printing trades believed they
could secure through negotiation
what they would have to enforce
by costly strike.
The employers are now attempting
to capitalize a vicious anti-union
propaganda of the past two years.
They have broken their pledge
and nationwide strike is on.
Peace in industry can not be even
Appropriated by such brands of
"Americanism" and "honor."
The Lenines and Trotskys need
have no fear that their cause will
lose adherents in this land of the
free while such employers are in
mune from public opinion.

On March 5, the date of our
last weekly report, says the Sur
geon General of the U. S. Public
Health Service, about 1850 beds
were vacant in our hospitals. Of
these about 1000 were in hospitals
just opened or additions to older
hospitals and were rapidly being
filled. The remaining 1000 was
less than 6 per cent of our total
capacity of 17,648, a very small
allowance for new arrivals. This
does not, of course, include our pa
tients in rented beds in contract
hospitals, who numbered 1896.
