EDITOR SCORES BOARD

j. Editor Cook, Of the Sacramento
Tribune: joins with organized labor
in flaying the California state indus
trial welfare commission and its
woman member, Mrs. Katherine
Phillips Edison especially, for re-
ducing the women's minimum wage
from SIG to SIS a. week.
Mrs. Edison presented figures to
show that a working woman can
live on $14.93 q week. Editor Cook
says:
who the Hades authorized Mrs.
Edison to obtain figures of the low
est point Of existence for working
women? Could this work not just
as we'll have been left to interested
employers? Is it part Of her secre-
tarial duties to compile data to be
used as propaganda for employers?
If so, then the welfare commission
is not a body beneficial to working
women and its adjustment cannot
be brought about any too quickly.
1--WE have known Mrs. Edison for
number Of years and her manner
of living has evidenced an income
exceeding $14.93 per week she rec
ommends for wage working women.
In fact, katherine has feasted on
the fat of the land and adorned her
willowly figure with all the glad
rags of prosperity.
Suppose some one recommends
cutting the salary of Mrs. Edison to
$14.93 per week? Would there be
weeping. wailing and crashing of
teeth? O. Rachel, you know It!
know what happened to Little
Johnny Jones and his sister Sue,
who ate the apple Of emerald hue?
Well, that wouldn't be circum-
stance to the noise Katy would
make if she were compelled toy exc
out an existence on $14 per-"

Oil subsidiaries, by a resolution
directing the Secretary of the In

of all oil leases in the California

Curtis have notified Senator La

Secretary. Fall in a statement

these leases by saying that naval

showed that the oil reserves had
not been tapped but who showed
conclusively that he had prevented
such action. g.: Z: s Il Il.

FRIENDS OF HUMANITY

!Rt. Rev. Michael J., Curley, who
succeeded the late Cardinal Gibbons
as Archbishop of Baltimore, was one
of the principal speakers before the
convention of the Maryland State
Federation of Labor recently.
''The Catholic. Church declares
the. right Of labor to organize" said
the archbishop, ito demand a living
wage, a wage which will support
.workmen and their families frugal
ly, to strike in an orderly manner
without resorting to the destruction
Of life or property. to uphold the
dignity Of labor. and 70 regard the
open shop as a closed shop-closed
against the members Of union labor.
What has organized labor done i?
Union labor is altogether responsible
for the better conditions under
which work is done today, -'
Union labor has brought about
the reforms in regard to child labor
and woman labor. Unions, are true
friends Of humanity, and not men,
aces, as they have been called. Dhey
have rendered splendid and effective
service for the betterment Of man
kind. ~ ..l.'
=: What has unorganized labor
done? Absolutely nothing. Il -
+ If you say word for the rights
OF labor today you are Immediately
called Socialist. I am no Socialist,
and I do not believe that radical So
cialism will ever bring happiness
and prosperity to anyone.
I'm fact. the Catholic Church and
the American Federation Of Labor
are the strongest forces combating
the spread of socialism in America.
