STEEL TRUST GARY
 FRIEND OF LABOR

The American Federation of Teach CTS 1923 convention adopted an anti I2-hour-day resolution which con demned the vicious and inhuman sys- tenn employed by the steel trust dom mated by Judge Gary" and urged the locals of the federation to create a public sentiment for the elimination of the "un-American, degrading and dehumanizing system"
 Tn the course of time the fedora tion's officials received communica- ton from F. R. Sites, secretary to Judge Gary, one paragraph which is surely worth preserving. It reads:
 "To characterize as vicious and in human the system employed by the Steel Corporation Is great mistake. Those who have given study to the subject of industrial management rec ognize that under Judge Gary's guid- ance the corporation has been the out standing leader among manufacturing companies in giving careful and ehec- comfort and happiness of its em- ployes, and hearty cooperation be- tween the employees and the manage ment."
 Judge Gary is the man who from the inception of the Steel Corporation established the policy of refusing to deal with the representatives of the democracies known as trade unions.
 Judge Gary is the man who refused to recognize the right of the steel workers to organize effectively in trade unions for the protection of their standards of wages and hours.
 Judge Gary is the man who has un- dertaken to maintain the slave own ers' conception of human labor pow CT as a commodity even after the statute laws of the United States de- clared that 1t is not a commodity.
 Judge Gary is the man who per sistently fought the abolition of the I2-hour day and the 7-day week and who only yielded when the trade un- ion movement had so mobilized pub lie opinion against these monstrosi- ties that further hostility to the short CT workday principle not only placed Judge Gary again the trade union but against the nation it. self
 Judge Gary is the man who has consistently advocated a policy of unrestricted immigration under which his corporation was able 10 import hundreds of thousands of ,heap alien workers to beat down and <ep down American standards of wages and hours to the animal plane l which obtains in southeastern Eu- -ope. 1

RAILROAD HAS
 75TH' JUBILEE
 AND OLD TIMERS
Chi. & N. w. Entertains TOO Elm
 ployes In Its Service ls so Years.

The seventy-ffth anniversary of the Chicago and North Western Railway System was celebrated in Chicago We'd nesday, Oct. "A, when, as special fea- ture of the occasion, the officials of the railway had as their guests for the day 100 veterns who, have been in active ser vice for fifty years or more.
 These veterans, representing all bran ches of the railway service, who have played so important part in building this, the first railway west of Chicago, were taken to that city were the guests of the North Western. They were met at the Madison Street Passenger Terminal by a Reception Committee composed of officials of the road, who provided day of entertainment. They were rendered luncheon in the Passenger Terminal by the Chicago and North Western Rail- way Womer's Club, and ill the afternoon taken on an automobile tour of the park and boulevard system of Chicago, the day ending with "get- together" and "good fellowship" dinner at one of the principal hotels.
 Chicago and Northwestern Railway is the pioneer road of the West, the old Galena and Chicago Union, now part of the present system, having been the first railroad to lay tracks west of Chi cago, and its construction was an epoch making event in the history and develop mtnt of the West and Northwest. From the modest btginning of ten miles ex tending from Chicago to Maywood, Ill.,, the system now embraces total of more than 10000 miles of track, reaching in to nine Statts.
 The first locomotive, the Pionetr, which visitors to the Worlds Columbian Exposition will remember as one Of the interesting historical exhibits, is still in possession of the company and in ex cellent state of repair.

CHEMICAL WORKERS
 HEALTH GAINS AS. INCOME INCREASES
By International Labor News Service

By International Labor News Service
 Washington, D. C. Nov. 2,-Health conditions among chemical workers inn prove as income increases,
 This is the finding of investigators of the United States Public Health Ser vice, who made phsica1 examination of o16 men employed in the chemical industry during the close of 1916 and the beginning of 1917.
 Their conclusions have just been made known in report in the weekly bulletin issued by the Public Health Service The report says: .-.
 "Dynamometer readings, chest ex- pansion, and vital capacity all increase with income. The number of children born and the number still living decrease with increase in income, whereas the per cent. of children born who are still living increases with income.
 Ut thus appears that child has a better chance of living in the better paid group The number of rooms per person increases, while the number of persons per bedroom dcreases with in creases in income. An average sized family of little over four persons was found to have an average of nearly five rooms with an average of 1.6 bedrooms. In the lower income groups the conges- ton is slightly higher than this, whereas in the better-paid groups 1t is slightly lower.
 Heart disorders and pyorrhea are both high in the 1ower-income class, de- creasing as the income increases"

The first function of Trade Unions has been well defined by MT. Sidney Webb, Historically and from the standpoint of the economist and sociolo- gist he says, "the primary function of trade unionism is to maintain and raise the standard of life and thereby to safe guard and enlarge the effective freedom of the individuals"
 We may agre with MT. Webb that that comes first, but while we must or ganize to defend the positions we have won, the social structure is itself un- dergoing change, and can we not now look forward to the time when Trade Unions will find themselves in new world, as parts, and highly important parts, of system in which industry will not for proft-rnaling but for service?
 Perhaps then it is inevitable that our visions of the future should color our thoughts when we are considering the problems of the present The contro- versy for instance between opponents of craft unionism, as opposed to those of industrial unionism assumes its se- riousness on this account 1t is improb- able that in this case the final solution will be rigid exclusion of the one me thod or the other We shali have to aifn apparently, at what I may call fluid" organization.
 A man who pases from one industry 10 another must have his craft and in dustrial interests adjusted by an agreed scheme between the various Unions con- cerned.
 am glad to see this connection a statement of the policy of one of our most important industrial unions, the National Union of Railwaymen.
 Tt should be quite possible" declares the statement, Ito arrange Ia scheme whereby a man who has learned his trade outside of the railway service, and who comes nto thei railway shop, should continue to pay to his original union such sum as would secure him what may be termed provident benefits. He should, however, or rather his original union could, on his behalf, pay to the Nation al Union of Railwaymen what is neces- sary to secure for him purely trade union benefits, by which is meant the conduct of his purely industrial affairs
 Surely we can agree that with a work able scheme on some such lines as those this devasting controversy may be brought to a happy end, for more than ever, in all countries, 1t is necessary that trade unionism should be in po- sition to put forward its utmost effort and more than ever is it urgent, there fore, that we should all take up this and similar problems boldly, and find so- lution for them. Should I be 1nisunder- stood if I say that what we want is a l Trade Union machine which, set in mo- fion by some central control, will work smoothly, swiftly, relent1ess1y ?-From an Address at American Federation of Labor Convention, Portland, Ore, Oct l 3, 1923.

Baerfacts By J. M. BAER, The Congressman cartoonist International Labor News Service
The People Elect Presidents! Let's Go!

There is mistaken belief that in case of the deaths of both president and vice-pres- ident, cabinet members can become president. The fact in the matter is that cabinet off, cials can only act as 'tempor- ary" president.
 Therefore in case President Coolidge should die, Charles E. Hughes, who was once repudi-- ated by the people, would not become president. He would temporarily act. Many news papers arranged the cabinet members in the order of their presidential succession but these lists only indicate the order in which they might be- come temporary chief execu- tive. The lists are misleading.
 In case of the deaths of the president and vice-president, the law requires the acting presi- dent to call Congress, at once, into session, giving 2o-days mo- tice, if it is not already in ses- sion; and Congress would then proceed to provide for special election.
 The Constitution says that the president shall be "elected"; this shuts out cabinet officials absolutely, for they are ap- pointed and not elected.
 The wisdom and the fore sight of the framers of the Con- stitution were shown by this provision. They foresaw this very situation and wanted to

make certain that the presi- dency should never be filled by anyone who was not elected by the people.
 Under monarchial system the succession is provided for and the people have nothing to say about 1t. But some will say that we now have an oligarchy Tn this country-one of wealth. more commonly known as Wall Street. Granting this is true, we still have the right through the ballot to turn this invisible" government out of power. If the voters of this country do not like the kind of presidents they elect, they can change them. They get just what they vote for.
 Which all reminds us. that there is going to be a presiden- t1al campaign in Io24l Now is the time. for the workers and women voters to organize, ap- point committees, raise funds and get busy in general. Through h the intelligent use of political franchise, the workers can put men in control of our government who will protect their rights, eliminate privilege, and once more make this a government of the people.
 All the Progressives must do is. educate and organize the great majority of voters who are willing to go and vote with them on one day in every four years. LET'S GO!
