PROGRESS is SLOW

Defeat in Maine of an amendment providing a 48-hour law
for women and children shows how difficult and how slow it is
to make progress toward better conditions.
Here is a proposal that by every rule of humanitarianism
and enlightened self-interest should have been approved by a big
majority. Yet the proposal was decisively defeated, only two
counties voting in its favor.
The Enlarged Committee of Associated Industries repre-
senting the employers, bitterly attacked the 48-hour proposal,
making various unsupported statements about it, including the
assertion that the passage of the law would put Maine at an
al per cent disadvantage with every other industrial state IN
the United States making cotton and WOODEN goods and shoes,
except one"
Organized labor and other progressive forces put up a strong
fight for the law, but their educational campaign had not been
of long enough duration to show the people the real benefits of
the proposal AS a result the people, especially the farmers,
SWALLOWED the arguments of the reactionaries and voted down
the bill.
Someone has said that there can be no lasting revolution
unless there has first been a revolution in the hearts of the people.
It is equally true that there is small chance OF making progress
on society until the people who compose society have changed
their minds. Only when people have been educated to see clearly
the benefits of a change will they consent to progress.
Names action demonstrates that progress is slow. But that
should not discourage friends of progress in industry. They
have only to redouble their efforts and work with patience, in
teDigence and sound methods and they will bring about changes
based on the solidest of foundations-ac conviction on the part OF
society that proposed changes are necessary to the advancement
of humanity.

YEARLY

The Bakery and Confectionery
Workers international Union of
America has waged 1853 strikes dur
ing the past three years to protect
bakery workers wages and hours.
The strike affected 1872 shops, 2,742
union members and cost the i%nterna-
tional union $89,344 in strike benefits.
Since 1909 the union has paid out
$926,662 in sick and death benefits
at an average monthly cost of slightly
over AZ cents per member.
In 1893 the union had 5000 mem
bers, 1920 in 1903, $4,000 in 1913
and 81, 1863 in 1928.
Insofar as strikes are concerned, the
Aberdeen Hoquiam local of Bakery
and Confectionery Workers have a
100 per cent record. In the eighteen
years that the lcal has been in exist
ence, not a single strike has been
called, which is conclusive proof that
the Harbor bakery owners are always
glad to meet their employees at least
halfway. 1t is this spirit of coopera-
tion that brings prosperity to both
employer and employe.

OPPOSED To
PARTISAN POLICY

Warren e. Beck, president of the
South Dakota State Federation of La
Dor, has issued a circular letter to
the officers of the state federation
outlining the political activities Of or
ganized labor in that state.
Mr.. Beck states that certain un-
scrupulous politicians are endeavor-
ing ito mislead the people and to de-
stroy the solidarity Of organized labor
in South Dakota" To answer these
"untruths and misstatements" Mr..
Beck's statement was prepared. 1t
follows in part:
at Is untrue that we favor joining
or fusing with the Democratic Dr. Re-
publican party. That is not and new
er has been our policy, and no one
with authority to speak has ever said
so to my knowledge.
"The federation has pledged itself
to the independent non-partisan plan
of political action as adopted by the
American Federation Of Labor, the
4NdJlOId1 0OLlCI6nC6 lOI IIOSI0SSlN6
Political Action, the 16 standard rail-
road labor organizations, the Farmers
Union, and many other liberal, pro-
gressive organizations of toilers. These
organizations disregard parties and
party names. They tie up to no party
But win elections, as has been DEM
onstrated in nearly all states of the
Middle West except South Dakota.
Here the third party plan prevented
success by splitting the progressive
vote, thus allowing machine politi-
clans to remain in control.
"A State Conference for Progressive
Political Action has been formed by
these labor and farmer organizations,
county conferences are being per-
fected and this movement will clean
house in South Dakota as it has done
elsewhere, if the laborers and the
farmers will stand together, as in the
past, and repudiate the self-appointed
political leaders who are neither far
mers nor laborers."

COUNCIL NOTES

The Aberdeen Central Labor Coun-
Gil met in regular session Friday even
ing with President Garfield in the
chair.
Executive committee reported that

tered into a controversy with the

good.
e. z. Wieland, former president Of

velopment of the Wynooche river pow
err project and instructed the secretary

POLITICAL ACTION.

The men who would have the trade
unions experiment with political ac-
ton" would experiment in their own
person with gravitation but for the
risk to their bones. They forget, or
care not, that the trade unions, too.
have bones that may be broken.

LITTLE CHOICE.

There isn't much to choose between
the union man who regards the pay
ment of dues as his sole obligation to
organized labor and the non-union
man who u no obligation at all
and what choice there is favors the
latter, rather.

Reformers generally would succeed
better if they were to give less at
tention to the effects of the strike
and more to the causes thereof.

HOLD HEARINGS ON
SAFETY STANDARDS

November 18th the Department of
Labor and Industries under the direc-
ton of Edward Clifford, will hold a
hearing in Aberdeen On the safety
standards recently prepared by the
department.
The first hearing was held at Olym-
pia the latter part of September at
which time certain employers n
their representatives left the meeting
in an attempt to prevent the adoption
Of the standards. Their efforts went
for naught for those employers who
remained and the representatives of
labor completed the work. One of the
large employers who remained in the
meeting and favored improved safety
standards was Alex Poison of Ho-
quiam.
The director of the Department of
Labor and Industries recently return
ed from a trip East and says that the
Eastern states have gone much furth-
er in accident prevention than have
some of the Western states. The di-
rector's contention is that money now
spent in compensating injured en-
ployes should insofar as possible be
spent in making machinery absolutely
safe.
Public Hearing.

Abedreen, hearing in other industrial
centers arranged for are as follows:
