TWO BOY BURGLARS CAUGHT RED HANDED
New Britain Lads, Missing From Home, Arrested in Ansonia

Ansonia, Nov. 1.-Two young boys who disappeared from New Britain two days ago after committing a couple of burglaries in that city were found at o'clock this morning in the confectionery store of J. k. Wislocki, at 20 Maple street. The youngsters had rified the cash register and when taken into custody by the police had $39.SS which it was said they had secured in the store. They also had a wrist watch and an expensive white sweater which the police believe was taken from an automobile.
 The boys gave their names as Al- bert Mankus, aged If, and Joseph Mankus, 10 years old. The lads said they belonged in New Britain and the police in that city being communicat- ed with, it was said the youngsters were wanted for robbing a couple of places in New Britain.
 The two boys were brought to New Britain, this afternoon by Chief Will liam c. Hart and Policemen Patrick O'Mara and John c. Stndler. They will be arraigned in juvenile court Saturday morning with three other youngsters involved in thefts at local stores. In the presence of Detective Sergeant William r. McCue the boys admitted breaking into two stores in New Britain but it is the belief of the police that they were involved in other thefts.
 When questioned by the sergeant one of the boys said that he pur- chased the white sweater in Ansonia and paid SC for it. After other boys had told the police that the two youngsters were connected with the thcfts a rigid search was made for them but they could not be found,

DAWES MINUTE MEN.

He'll & Marie Dawes of Chicago,
and we'll known here among the bust
ness men, has started a new organiza-
ton which he calls the Minute Men.
This is fancy name and one which
serves the purpose, yet does not mean
anything TO the man in the street.
He states that the purpose Is to up
hold the ideals of Americanism and
other things aimed to attract the fol-
lowers of the proposition. He men
tons the right to work and to quit
work. Well, the right to work sounds
mighty fine and we wish that right
existed, but no man has a right to
work, we understand, unless he can
find a boss or can find employment
in which he can be his own boss. The
right to quit work we understand is
constitutional right. so why should
Dawes have to organize for that pur-
pose. To make long story short
theer is one purpose back of the Min
ute Men idea and that is to promote
the interests of the open shoppers and
to spread propaganda detrimental to
organized labor. A man of the Dawes
type is a dangerous one in the role
which he has undertaken. He can in
flame a prejudiced group about as
quick as any man we know of. The
fellow is fearless and does not stand
on ceremony. A wrong idea in head
like his becomes a menace to the well
fare of those at whom the idea is
aimed. Theer is no need of these
fancy named organizations and there
are too many people now who want to
set up a constitution and court of
their own. Many of the organiza-
tons that have grown up since the
war, are usurping the powers of gov
eminent and several have in the past
year or two taken the law into their
own hands. If Dawes thinks that he
knows what is wrong with America.
let him take his case TO the eople and
ask them to elect him to office so that
he can put his ideas into force legally.

BOOSTED WAGE
INCREASE NOT
BEING ANALYZED

hicago.-Defender of the steel
and meat trusts glorify recent wage
increases by these combines, but the
wage increases are not analysed.
The public is not told, for instance,
that skilled labor in the packing
plants are paid as low as AZ cents an
hour, and that the muchly- advertised
wage increase means but an addition
al 3 cents an hour. Unskilled labor
has been receiving 3712 cents an hour,
which is advanced to 5 cents an hour,
o rto 42la cents. Semi skilled labor,
over 371s cents an hour and under AZ
cents an hour, is increased 4 cents an
hour.
These wages are lauded by syco-
plants who give no thought to how
a worker can rear family on such
an income.
The Butcher Workman, official
newspaper of the Amalgamated Meat
Cutters, says the packers could not
dodge the issue any longer, so they
made the shabby concession to return
tiny part Of former wage cuts.
at was nicknamed wage increases,
but actually il was nothing more
than the return of small fraction of
several wage cuts within less than
two years." says the labor journal.
"rhe packers returned but frac-
ton of what should have been paid
to their employees long ago. The COM
pany union the biggest counterfeit
in industry, played second fiddle. 1t
functioned as expected. The picked
management representatives voiced
the opinion of their masters. They
were not on the ground to do other
wise. The employees representatives
did not count. Had they not agreed
with the management representatives
the packers, the highest court of APP
peal would have upheld the manage
ment lieutenants, the mannikins
whose voice and vote is controlled by

WHAT CAN | DO FOR THE
UNION?

In many cases where men are
asked to join a union, one of the first
questions they ask is: what will
the union do for me?" or What will
| get out of it," Both are perfectly
reasonable and legitimate questions to
ask. At the same time they ought
to take into consideration the fact
that the things worth having are not
easily gained, some sacrifice has to be
made.
There are many workers who, if
they cannot see an immediate raise in
wages in prospect, will not come into
the Labor Movement. They say: II
think l will wait and see what the
rest are going to do"
Ii we who are In the movement
had waited to see what the rest were
going to do, there would not be any
Labor Movement for anyone to join.
1t is because there are men who have
the courage of their convictions that
men have the opportunity to become
union members. 1t is because many
men have given their lives, and made
many other sacrifices, that the con-
ditions of the workers are as good as
they are.
No worker who is outside of the
Labor Movement has any right to
complain about what the unions have
not done. 1t is not because of lack
Of effort on the part Of those who
are in the movement that more has
not been done, but is because of the
failure of those who are still on the
oustsidesto come in and do their part.
What can the workers do to help
the union? First of all, they can
join ii. They can attend meetings
regularly. They can urge others to
join the union. They can pay their
dues promptly. They can educate
themselves in the history of the
movement; in so doing they not only
help themselves, but others as we'll.
We have no right to ask others to do
things for US if we are not willing to
try to do them for ourselves.
The legitimate Labor Movement,
as represented under the banner of
the American Federation of Labor,
Is not built upon theory or promise.
1t is built upon sound principles that
anyone can honestly subscribe to.
Its form of organization is the result
of the present industrial system, its
progress is being made possible by
the ever growing need of industrial
protection.
More and more are the workers
coming to the realization that they
must help themselves, that through
collective bargaining only can they
hope to enjoy more of the fruits Of
their toll. Greater enjoyment of the
things that labor creates will come
only through more rapid organization
on the part of all workers.
Over four and half million Of
organized workers have shown wha
can be done; no further argument
ought to be necessary to induce tht
unorganized to organize and join with
their fellows in the greatest and mos
necessary movement of the day.
