JUDGE Lands
HANDS DOWN HIS
FINAL DECISION
lBy The Federated Pressl

Chicago, Feb. 2.-Judge K. M. Lam
dis, arbitrator of the building trades
industry of Chicago, who remained In
office in spite of the protests of the
unions, whose wages and working
conditions he was arbitrating, has
handed down his decision on the scale
for the year beginning June l. In
creases are granted the scagiola rub
bers and polishers, the marble set
ters and the terrazo mechanics as
sistants and increases should be
granted the plumbers, cement finish
ers, gasfitters, drain layers, compost
tion floor finishers, steamfitters, or
namcntai iron workers, composition
roofers and sprinkler filters If those
trades will eliminate "wasteful prac-
tices," the Judge ruled.
The metropolitan papers predict an
early settlement of the strike against
Landis conditions, which is now in
force, and quote union officials to
that effect. Harry Jensen, president
of the Carpenters District Council,
with mmbership of $4,000 and the
leading opponent of the Lands
award, declares. his organization will
not accept the new scale. The car
penters have voluntarily cut their
scale from $1.25 an hour to $1.10, but
they will under no circumstances ac-
cept the Lands rate of 81 an hour,
he declared.
The "open shop" Citizens Commit
tee, through its spokesman, Thomas
Z. Donnelly, declares no settlement
will be made except on the basis of
the. non-union shop. The committee
insists on the retention of the strike
breakers imported by the committee
and on hiring union workers as "in-
dividuals." Contractors are said to
be bringing pressure on the commit
tee to obtain permission to operate on
a union basis, claiming that the i'm
ported strikebreakers are incompe-
tent and therefore costly.

Challenge Not Accepted

Several weeks ago the Twin City
Federation of Labor, through its
Mass Meeting Committee, issued a
challenge to the proponents of the
"open shop" to select someone to meet
John P. Frey, editor of the Molders'
Journal, of Cincinnati, in an open de-
date on the "open shop" question. So
fan the challenge has not been accept
ed, and from present indications there
is no prospect of the debate being ar
ranged. for Tuesday, it Is reported,
K. c. Taylor, secretary OF the
Employers l"open shop'') Associa-
ton, stated that it would do no one
any good to have the question debated
and that it would widen the breach
between labor and capital.
Organized labor is somewhat dis
appointed that the challenge has not
been accepted. 1t believes in coming
out in the open in such matters, and
II cause has any merit, it should be
discussed before those whom it con-
Germs by its ablest speakers. 1t be-
heyes an honest discussion of any
honest question will not injure any,
one, and it believes that a refusal to
openly debate the "open shop" ques-
tion is practically an admission that
lis hackers are afraid of the results.
However, if the "open shoppers"
have not sufficient faith in their
movement to subject it to the light of
debate, the Twin City Federation of
Labor will hold its meeting on sched-
uled time, when Mr.. Frey will use
the open shop" question as his topic.
Mr.. Frey will speak here on Sunday,
February 20.
The unionists want to know:
viii debate on the "open shop"
question widen the breach Gf there
Is one) between the employer and the
employe?
Will debate on the "open shop"
question be of benefit to either side :?
Who will defend the "open shop
propaganda in a joint debate with
John P. Frey of Cincinnati on Febru-
airy 26?
Organized labor of the Twin Cities
believes:
The citizens of the Twin Cities are
the Kind that will give any just cause
hearing before deciding where to
cast their lot. Either side of a ques-
eon that has just cause should not
le3r the publicity of honest debate.
In the present industrial, or So
called "open shop" fight each side is
dependent upon public sympathy for
success A debate is like jury trial,
eaeh SIDE presenting Its case to the
same jury.
While letter direct to John M.
1ie1n inviting him or any one he
might select, to discuss the "open
saoP with Mr.. Frey, has not as yet
received favorable reply, any man,
.oeal or national, who believes in the
open shop" policy, is invited to par
ue1lpatee in the proposed debate.

ola-lashioned way of settling dis

SAN FRANCISCO
MANUFACTURERS
GIVEN BAD JOLT

San Francisco.-As a counter-blast
to the request of the California Man
ufacturers' Association to reduce the
minimum wage for women from SIG
to $11.78 a week, the California State
Federation of Labor and the San
Francisco Labor Council, in a joint
brief, state that, based on the cost of
living, the weekly salary should be
S21.20.
The brief quotes from the conven-
ton statemnt of the A. F. of l.. in
1921, "The practice of fixing wages
solely on a basis of the cost of living
is violation of the whole philosophy
of progress and civilization" 1t
points out that the cost of living has
increased 110 per cent in San Fran
cisco since 1914, as compared Nth 92
per cent in the country at large.

Lack of Cooperation.

The attitude of management and
labor toward full cooperation is gen.
orally one of indifference, and fire.
quently, one of hostility. The reason
for this unfortunate condition are not
difficult to discover. They result
from a condition created by manage
ment which has largely, and in some
instances wholly, eliminated labor
from having any voice relative to the
regulation of those conditions which
directly affect labor. Mutual conf
dence has not existed, and where con-
fidence does not exist, there never can
be real cooperation.

strike of leather workers. The men
left their jobs January 4. They have
returned with all previous working
conditions. About 160 workers were

they are. The result of focusing their

There is no doubt of that in view

rid Of such leaders7" asked Jack.
THAT is the real point, Jack. The
American people are not down on
the men of union labor. They realize
that in organization there is strength
and splendid results If handled
promperly. But the attitude and
action of lll-advlsed leaders has
done more recently to hurt union
labor than anything their enemies
could have done in a hundred years
To defy the law, no matter how

seems to start him going.
What is that?" asked Ruth.

with a bang. Ever since the gov

Uncle Ted, who had just appeared
on the scene. "Well, It sure has
caused some excitement and I'm
mighty glad It has. 1t was time
that everybody in this country real
lied that the government comes
first. That no one class can make
II impossible for all the people to
live and pursue their work and hap
piness. / am not talking about the
striking shopmen alone. They have
right to quit, but they have no
right to so further and interfere
with the trains which must carry
mail and food, not to mention pas
sengers. The important phase of
this whole matter. to me, Is the fact
that there are many leaders who
seem TO think that the unions should
hold themselves above the law when
dealing with this injunction. They
do not represent the whole unions
but they do great damage to the
workingman's cause because their
radical statements and actions are
heard and seen while the conserva-
tive patriotic workingman who |
thinks of the nation as a whole first |
is not seen or heard.

he will encourage labor to follow a
course OF defiance and continued |
battle so far as the Federal Gov

Budget of $4,000
For N. E. Friends

Oak Grove Seminary, Nassalboro,
Me, June -(SpeciaD-The Friends
of New England in yearly conference
here, on Wednesday,, heard the rec
ords of the Permanent Board and the
announcement of the budget for
$4,000 was approved. Next came the
report of the Moses Brown school at
Providence. r. I. This school has
had a prosperous year. An enroll
ment OF 355 students and a class of
SO graduated this year. The business
of the year exceeded $157 900, with a
balance to the credit of the school of
more than five thousand dollars
The accommodations of the school
are limited to the number of pupils
admitted the past year. There is a
waiting list for both the upper and
lower school.
The annual report of Oak Grove
Seminary showed this school had
closed a very prosperous year under
the skillful management of Robert f.
and Eva Pratt Owen. The enrolment
has been SIS. and a class of sixteen
graduated this year.
The school has acquired three
valuable pieces of real estate contigu-
Gus to the grounds. This makes the
grounds ample for the large board
ing school that is anticipated by the
managers of Oak Grove Seminary
The committee on education have
care of a loan fund that is doing much
good. Small sums are loaned to
boys and girls that are eager for a
higher education. They have this
money at four per cent and pay it
back as soon as they get to earning
money.
The Bible half-hour was occupied
by Rufus NJ. Jones, Professor of
Philosophy at Haverford College,
Penn. He talked on the three first
Gospels.
The afternoon session was devoted
to Foreign and Home Missions. A
very interesting letter from Edward
and Marion Kelsey was read. They
have had charge of the mission at
Ram Allah for some years. Two
thriving schools. one for boys and
one for girls are in successful opera
ton. Nearly $4,000 have been ex-
pended during the past year.
The Home Mission committees have
not been idle. Their work has been
among the western Indians and the
colored people of the South. The in
dustrial schools at High Point. \.
Carolina and Christiansburg, Vir-
ginia. have been helped, also the
school at Southland, Arkansas.
