The FIRST UNION;
FIRST OPEN SHOP

In the beginning God made the
earth in six days, and on the seventh
day he rested When He started to
replenish the earth He made man in
His own image. God soon saw that
it was not good for man to live alone
and then He made woman.
Right there the first Union was or
ganiZed.
God, recognizing this Union, gave
the man and woman employment in
Eden's beautiful garden.
On a lovely, sunshiny day, when
peaceful and amicable relationships
were the only things known between
God and man the Open Shopper ap-
peared on this sylvan scene, and with
his store of false statements and gift
of CAB, he beguiled Mother Eve with
the great advantages" of the Open
Shop, and persuaded her to join the
association. Then the two inveigled
Adam to join with them.
The Creator, believing in the prin-
ciples of Unionism, when these facts
became known to him, escorted them
to the gate and locked them out.
One of the first proofs that the
Master was Fair employer is evil
denced when he divided the "a hours
of the day into three equal parts,
with only eight hours for labor-with
a full day of rest on the seventh day
Time rolled on, and after while
a bright and shining star shone in the
East-a Son lay in the manger
This child was our Savior-who
grew up to be Carpenter-Preacher
and all records of His life prove that
He was Union man, and God said
"This is Ny Beloved Son, in whom
am well pleased
So, my friends, upon the teachings
of these Immortals, the very funda-
mental principles of Organized Labor
are founded.-W c. Franklin, in the
Carpenter.

THE
HIGH COST OF BEING
UNORCANIZED

Nothing is so expensive for the
worker as the luxury of not belong
ing to the labor union of his indus
try The high cost of remaining out
side Of the union movement is mount
ing so rapidly that only utter blind
ness could fail to see it. For work
er to stay aloof from the labor unions
and to depend entirely upon the fair
ness of the employer amounts almost
to commttal of suicide by neglect.
For the high cost of being morgan
lied is bound to crush and destroy
this individual worker almost as sure
ly as if he were to GO complacently
in front of an express train.
Let us take a case of an employer
renowned for his self-asserted fair
ness. Who will doubt the word of
Judge Gary of the steel trust? We
all remember how Judge Gary pub
licly professed his utmost considera-
ton for the workers, not to speak OF
mere fairness or justice. Why, Judge
Gary sympathized with the worker
belonging to the union. He alleged
that the union member becomes an
industrial slave of the union" Union
members must pay dues, assessments
The maintenance of the union IN
wolves considerable expenses. And IT
is all so unnecessary. Here is Judge
Gary himself who assures us that
"labor unions may have been Justlflec
in the long past, for think workmer
were not always treated justly, bu'
there is at present no necessity fol
labor unions" You see, at present
according to Judge Gary, workmer
are always treated justly.
The public statement was made D!
Judge Gary at the annual meeting
Of the stockholders of the steel trus'
at the beginning of April OF TINS
year. Since then, the wages OF tnt
unorganized steel workers have peer
reduced three times by Judge Gary
and his trust On May l6, l92l
came the first 20 per cent reduction
in wages-from $500 to $4.O5 for
ten-hour day Only two months iatel
on July 16, the wages of the unorgan
lied steel workers were reduced
another 91a per cent-to $3.1O Tor
ten-hour day. And on August 29th
another wage cut of almost ~ pc
cent, reducing the wages to % TO-
. fen-hour day was put into effec
by the steel trust.
Mind you, this is the richest cor
noration of the country-the trus
that made during the last year ne
profit after paying the fabulous sal
aries to Judge Gary and all the res
of the presidents, vice-presidents, etc
net profits amounting to the httl

sum of $185, 100000 The corporation
besides has accumulated in undivided
surplus profits more than half bill
lion dollars, $522 100000. Now, this
Unsuitable trust while accommodating
profit upon profit and while boasting
of its fairness, justice to and consider
alton for the worker, this alleged eX-
emplary employer goes ahead and re-
duces the wages of its unorganiZed
workers to SOC an hour, which would
amount to 1920 week on the basis
of the forty-four hour week. But
even working as they do, ten hours d
day, or sixty hours a week, the un-
organized steel workers could earn
ut most only SIS a week.
Here we have the high cost of be-
ing unorganized expressed in exact
figures Not single organized trade
in this country had to submit to more
than one reduction of wages during
the same five months. Not in sin
gle organized trade were the wage re-
ductions during this period
higher than 20 per cent. 1t must fur
ther be remembered that the organ
lied workers gained considerable in
creases in wages during the period of
prosperity, that when the depression
| started their wages were at much
higher level than the wages of the
unorganized steel workers. Prac tic
ally in every organized trade the
wages were almost twice as high or
more than the SOC an hour received
| by the unorganized steel workers.
| But even from their considerably
| higher wages the organized workers
owing to their organized resistance
were in no case reduced more than
20 per cent. In most of the cases the
reductions were much lower, mostly
| between 10 and Is per cent.
1t is fair to assume that if the steel
workers were organized they would
not have Jared any worse than the
| greatest sufferers among the union
workers. With strong organization
| they might have had to submit to the
| first 20 per cent reduction, but GER
tainly under no circumstances WOULD
the steel trust have had chance to
force upon organized steel workers
the second and third reductions. The
second and third reductions amount
ed together to $1.05 a day or to owe,
Sc a week That is the minimum
cost of being unorganized. The un
organized steel workers pay at least
Sc week for the privilege of stay
ing outside of the labor movement
That is the least amount in net cash
not to speak of the very long hours
humiliations, and indignities that the
unorganized steel workers have tt

are unorganized Compare this will

high and ever mounting cost of being
unorganized.
The high cost of remaining unor-
ganized is so staggering that it is
no wonder why the unorganized
workers are compelled to submit to
a life of untold misery, of actual semi
starvation and extreme desolation.
Organization is the only hope of the
worker. 1t is his only protection
both against the high cost of living
and against the still higher and
mounting cost of being unorganized.

Star of Bethlehem.

F'ennimore Times: Truly a won
derful star. 1t appeared to the wise
men OF the east ninteen hundred and
twenty two years ago. But every
year, at Christmas time, it shines
forth again. bringing joy and glad
ness to countless human hearts. es-
pecially the children And if does
more; the star of Bethlehem brings
strength to the weary, courage to the
disconsolate, comfort to the sorrow
ing, hope to the downcast, solace to
the sick, consolation to the dying.
Shall we not, as did the wise men of
the East, bow in humble alteration
of the Christ-child, saviour of the
world, over whose lowly and humble
birthplace, shedding it's mild and
benef1cent rays, stood the wonderful
star of Bethlehem?

tons committee in reporting the $685.

provides for an enlisted personnel OF
$4,000.
The committee report said large
cruisers and submarine programs were
planned abroad, adding:
I'm other words, competition is on
again in the single direction to which
the unratified Washington naval treaty
does not extend, and If it be allowed
to go on unchecked, the purse strings
again must be relaxed and this gov
eminent, like all others, will be con-
strained to launch a new program TO

ton in business and finance.

$1,000 Fine Or Six Months for
B0otlegging.

Dodgeville Sun Republic: A fine
of 81 1000 and costs or six months in
jail was the sentence imposed by
County Judge Aldro jerks last Fri
day on Stanley Trentzsch, who was
convicted on Wednesday of bootlegg-
ing. The costs amounted to $4S.52.
The expenses of George Sellers, wit
ness for the state, were taxed from
the Wisconsin state line, the law not
permitting the county to recover the
rest of the cost of bringing him from
his home at Denver, Colorado. The
line has not been paid and Trentzsch
is still in the county jail.

the next senate for the seats of Sen
ators Lodge Of Massachusetts, and
King of Utah probably will be started
by the foes of each, it was learned
here, with some chance that the con-
test against Senator King will be sue
cessful. Also the senate leaders are
sure that there is little chance for the
seating of Senator Mayfield Of
Texas, who has acknowledged vio-
lation Of the state law of Texas in
