7 = OW many horses will start in

TT OW many horses will start in
the Kentucky Derby?
At present that question is
puzzling the experts as much as pick
ing the probable winner.
Something like 14O nominations
have been made for the classic, and
at present perhaps ham of them are
showing enough stuff to warrant the
belief that they viii start.
Getting a 3-year-old ready for the
Derby is a serious proposition. So
early a start as May 10 makes it
necessary to hurry the condition OF
many a horse. so that he will be able
to travel the Derby distance of a mile
and a quarter.
Y VERY often some slight ac-
" cident on the very eve of the
race forces the withdrawal Of
many of the real contenders. While
seventy nominations are showing
Derby stuff at present, from now on
many cuts will be made in the
probable starters.
Last year Olympus was picked to
Norwich, yet in his final trial for
the event something went wrong
and he was withdrawn at the
eleventh hour and those who had
wagered on him in the winter book
didn't even get a run for their
money.
" RTING to pick the winner for
the Derby this year is some
job, turf experts agree. There
is no horse In the race that stands
out as did Norwich last year.
After perusing the dope of the wise
guys on the possibilities Of the race
at least a dozen loom up as strong
contenders.

that Sally's Alley has an excellent

IF all the horses start who are

quite as satisfactory. since there
exists the element Of doubt as to
which is really the best horse.
" HE going in the Derby IS SO

unless he feels that it has good

general belief is that the nominations
will be so reduced by Derby day that

able to preserve the shorter workday
The unorganized workers are forced
to take just what their employers see
fit to pay in good times and bad. They
are never in position to dictate
in any way as to their hours of labor
or their remuneration.
The law of supply and demand helps
them or hurts them, as the case may
be, but they are never in position
to take advantage of the opportuni-
ties offered by the law of supply and
demand, when times are good, or to
protect themselves from the use made
of the same law, by the employers,
in times of depression.
Those who reason that there is
nothing to be gained by organization
are victims of the philosophy of de-
spair, if they are honest, or they
have selfish reason for not wanting
to see the workers organized.
The manufacturers are organized;
so are the doctors; SO are the grocers

up with another error in reasoning
when they assume the attitude that
organization is futile and a waste
of time, when times are hard and jobs
are. scarce.
This line of reasoning is just about
as sound as that of the man whose
housesha a leaky roof and who figur-
ed that while the weather was fair,
there was no use in bothering with
the roof, and then when it rained
nothing could be done about it until
the weather cleared up.
This roof never got fixed, and the
worker who thinks that there is no
use in organizing while times are
good and that nothing can be done
when times are bad, never gets any
where.
The fact of the matter is that, when
times are good, the workers could
prosper a whole lot more if they were
organized. The time to strike is while
the iron is hot, and, if the workers
were well organized and thoroughly
trained and disciplined, there is no
estimate of the amount of good they
could do for themselves, during a
period of prosperity, when the en-
ployers are more anxious to have
every wheel turning, without inter
ruption.
During slack times it may not be
possible or practical to make ad-
vances or try to force increases in
wages, but strong organization can
do many things to protect the mem
bership and take the edge off of the
situation.
1t is a well-recognized fact that the
workers, who suffer the least in an in
dustrial depression, are those who are
best organized
Organized workers are able to re-
sist reductions in wages. If they are
not able to prevent cut they can
at least, reduce the size of the cut.
Through the use of strict discipline
they are able to apportion the work
in such manner as to give all a
chance to get some of it and they are

FALSE REASONING

If one is mentally lazy or for a
selfish reason closes his eyes to facts,
or if he is over enthusiastic and re-
fusese to take into consideration
truths that are obvious, it is easy to
set in action a false line of reasoning
to support his existing mental atti-
tude
False reasoning is one of the great
est obstacles encountered by the or
ganized workers, in their efforts to
build up the labor movement and
emancipate the workers.
To make matters worse, it is usu-
ally those who assume to know lit
tie more than the average who indulge
in false reasoning.
One favorite line of false reason
ing indulged in by those who are too
lazy to marshal few facts, and by
those who have some selfish purpose
to serve, lis that when times are good
and work plentiful, there is no need
for organization. They follow this

LABOR MUST BUILD FOR
IT'S LIFE
American labor must plan.


OF all human units of thought and
need, it pulses most with the instinct
to protect the race 1t fights most
clearly for life.
Labor vibrates today with the all
but over-powering demand and urge
for something fundamentally new in
manner of life, incomprehension of
life. In the mind of labor is the i'm
pulse to crash through into a world
that is different from the world of
today. This impulse is tempered by
traditional caution. 1t thus becomes
steady, irresistible urge. 1t will
not be denied Something is going to
happen.
Unless labor plans intelligently,
soundly, consciously, practically, it
will have less to say about what hap
pens than it wants to say. Breaking
down traditions and barriers in an
established world is one thing. Break
ing out paths in new world is
another thing. We have about done
with changing the furniture around
in the old place. We have just about
finished the job of knocking the vii
lain down stairs in the world that is.
Moreover, while the process of
knocking down one peg after another
was good in breaking the way up
to this point, it is scientific fact that
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1923-11-30

pegs cannot be set UP by breaking
them down, and the job of tomorrow
will be the job of setting up pegs.
This is not forecast of COM
pletely regenerated world, or of a
violent cataclysm. We still have in
the world remnants of these three or
four previous social orders, feudalism,
barbarism, savagery. But the fore
front of Intelligent human progress
is about to thrust itself into the next
stage of human development, wherein
the hopeful, longing souls see glory,
happiness, freedom - perhaps more
than will be found upon arrival

OPEN SHOP METHODS

The desperate lengths to which
corporate greed will go in the effort
to boost Gne principle of the "open
shop" which means, of course, the
non-union shop, has new revelation
in the last annual report of Indus
trial Commissioner Schientag, of New
York, which has just been made pub
lie in the monthly bulletin of the
state labor department, covering the
disastrous strikes of the Schenectady,
Troy and Buffalo street railways.
This is on official report, and there
may be no dispute of the facts pre-
sented, which constitute most i'm
portant and impressive demonstra-
ton. !,
On some of these properties the
union had been recognized for as long
as eleven years But the directors
decided to establish an open shop, and
in utter disregard of the public well
fare, in violation of wage agreement
with the union, the directors forced
their employees to strike by arbitrar
lily reducing their wages.
The facts set forth in Commis-
sioner Schientag's report places the
responsibility for these strikes square
~ upon the six absentee directors of
the companies who represent the in
terests of the Delaware and Hudson
railroad, headed by the union-smash-
ing L. F. Loree. Mr. William H.
Vanderbilt, representing the New
York Central interests, also placed
the blame upon these directors when,
on the witness stand some time ago,
he said that he and the other New
York Central directors were in favor
of recognizing the union.
These strikes have cost the COM
panies involved upward of $10,000,000
and the business and travelling public
more than can be estimated in dollars
and cents, says the report of Commits
sioner Schientag. But what are the
loss of ten million dollars and an in
convenienced public compared to the
benefits of the open shop?
1t would be interesting to know how
many widows and orphans, whom
these hypocritical open-shoppers shed
tears over whenever public ownership
is mentioned, have been deprived of
dividends on their investments in
these properties.

CAMPAIGN AGAINST CHILD
LABOR

Recent decisions of the federal su-
preme court declaring existing laws
against child labor invalid, have
made necessary another national
campaign for the renewal of valid
legislation on that subject and organ
lied labor recognizes that it must
take the leadership in this fight. This
being true it can not begin too soon,
since the evil sought to be corrected
is growing not decreasing, as is shown
by the announcement that several
hundred thousand children have been
added to the million or more who
were employed in 1920. This will
come as surprise to optimistic per-
sons who have believed that child la
Dor was decreasing, as result of
the fight which has been carried on
against it for a score of years.
Grace Abbott, head of the federal
childs bureau, is authority for the
statement that Labor Day, 1928, found
more than million children between
10 and 15 years old working in the
United States. Nearly 100000 of
these, Miss Abbott reports, are from
10 to 13 years old. The census does
not report those who are under ten.
These child workers are employed in
mills, factories, mines and tenements,
on the farm, in trade, and as servants.
1t does not appear that the eco
nomic need of child labor is greater
than formerly The contrary is the
case as the economic status of the
American people is better now than
in 1920, thanks largely to the sue
cessful fight that organized labor
made against drastic slashes IN wages
during the period of depression fol-
lowing the war. The graft of employ
ers and parents seems to be the cause
of child labor, now, as well as in
former years.
This denial Of education and leis-
ure, which are the natural rights of
children, is confined to no section of
the country. New England has al
most as bad record in this regard
as the South, and the evil is as ap-
parent in Michigan and Oregon as in
Alabama and Mississippi. The states
seem to be doing little to end child
labor, which shows that labor has not
been as active and insistent on the
subject as it should have been. 1t
now comes to workers that they must
arouse the country and insist on this
as an immediate potential issue if re-
