DELEGATES LIKED
OREGON'S MANNER
OF ENTERTAINING

Delegates to the American Fedora
ton of Labor convention which ad-
journed last Saturday, were unani-
nous in pronouncing their visit to
Portland one of the most pleasant
they have spent in any convention
city. While the entertainment was
not on a scale so elaborate as that
provided on some previous occasions,
it was of such a nature as to be re-
membered. In quantity it was all the
delegates desired. Something was Of
fered on every occasion on which the
delegates could spare brief time from
their work. Andrew Winberg, who
represented Grays Harbor at the con-
vention, stated upon his return that
the Portland ~unionists had done jus
tice TO the occasion.
The concluding feature was the con
vention ball given in the Labor Tenn
pie auditorium Thursday night. The
Columbia Highway trip was made by
several hundred delegates and visitors
the first Sunday, when lunches we're
served at different points along the
route. The river trip scheduled for
last Sunday was abandoned when the
boat was tied up through litigation in
volving the owners
A banquet "a given in the ladies'
room of the Labor Temple the first
Wednesday night for the executive
council, fraternal delegates, the local
labor convention committee and the
citizens committee which assisted in
the convention preparations.
One Of the enjoyable affairs, the
delegates say, "a a performance by
the Labor College players last Friday
night. Delegates were loud in their
praise of the presentation of three
playlets by members of local unions
who were students in the dramatic
art class Of last year.
The women delegates and other

women visitors were given a luncheon
In the ladies' room of the Labor Tenn
pie the first Tuesday Of the conven-
ton.
Practically every local union on one
or nor occasion held special meet
ings to enable members to hear their
international officers. At many of
these meetings banquets were includ-
ed. The Cigarmakers' union had as
their guest, President Gompers, who
is a member of that trade union, and
worked at that trade, starting when
he was a boy 13 years Of age.
The Garment Workers union enter
tanned their officers and officers Of
the Label Trades department at
Crown Point chalet. The novelty of
the trip and the dinner made a de-
cided impression on the guests. The
Neustadter factory one day gave a
luncheon to the Garment Workers Of
ficers and to their employees, who are
members of the Portland union.

REPUBLICAN WOMEN
HIT CHILD LABOR

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-The Wom-
ems Republican Club, Inc, has put
itself on record as opposed to an
amendment to the Federal eonstitu-
ton comforting power upon congress
to regulate child labor. The Federal
child labor amendment is made nee
essary for adequate protection of chill
dren by the action of the supreme
court in declaring that under the con-
stitution as it now stands congress
is without authority to wrest from
employers in the textile mills and
others, the power to turn the health
and lives of Americas children into
profits.

If Skin Breaks
Out And ItCheS
Apply Sulphur

Just the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching, burning or
broken out skin, the itching stops and
healing begins, says a noted skin spe-
cialist. This sulphur preparation,
made into a pleasant cold cream, gives
such a quick relief, even to fiery ecze-
ma, that nothing has aver been found
to take its place.
Because of its germ-destrOying
properties, 1t quickly subdues the itch
ing, cools the irritation and heals the
eczema right up, leaving a clear,
smooth skin in place of ugly eruptions,
rash, pimples or r~oughness.
You do not have to wait for i'm
provement. 1t quickly shows. You
can get a little jar of Rowles Mentho-
Sulphur at any drug store. adv

attic council and of the State Fedora
tion of Labor and once more exacted
a pledge to exert every effort to har-
monize all former existing differences.
The pledge Of the f~ederation's rep
resentatives was given in good faith
and has been kept; however, the re-
| port submitted last Wednesday night
to the Seattle Central Council by its
representatives and published in the
Union Record violated their pledge.
The report charged the president of
the state federation with misrepre-
senting the facts before the executive
council, and attempted to compare
him with Ole Hanson in this connec-
ton.
The signers of the report and all
concerned had complete knowledge Of
the fact that all charges made against
the Seattle Central Labor Council be-
fore the parent body we're corrobo-
rated and sustained by its official
minutes of the Seattle council, and
that former Secretary Duncan ac-
knowledged tina the minutes of the
council were written by him and were
a correct record. They also knew
that the action taken by the executive
council was based entirely or the Of
fetal minutes and records submitted
and which covered the activities of
the Seattle Central Labor Council for
the past two years. Any extraneous
matter injected into the hearing raj
injected by its representatives through
personal attacks directed against GER
tain individuals and organizations,
none of which bore any relation to
the subject being considered by the
parent body.
1t is to be hoped that despite this
~infraction Of the pledges given Presi-
dent Gompers that representatives of
the Seattle council will in future make
every effort to help unite the labor
forces of their city and abandon those
policies that have in the past brought
so much injury to the of labor
in Seattle, and to some extent, that
of the entire state.
The representatives of the State
Federation of Labor intend to fulfill
their pledges given President Comp
ers and the executive council, and do
all in their power to help bring har-
mony in the ranks of labor in Seattle
and throughout the state, but will feel
compelled to defend themselves
against any unwarranted attacks or
Misrepresentation that may be made.
The decision of the executive coun-
Gil to watch closely the activities OF
the Tacoma, Butte and Detroit central
labor bodies, reveal the determine
tion of the parent body to clean up all
disloyal activities on the part of any

Growth of American
Federation of Labor

The constantly increasing numeri-
cal strength of the American Fedora
ton of Labor is emphatically exhib-
tied by the membership of the affili-
ated unions by 10 year periods.
The average membership of the
unions affiliated to the Federation
was 1,465, 800 in 1903; 1896, OO4 in
1913, and 2,926.468 in 1923.
There are 1O8 affiliated national and
international unions composed of 49,
534 local unions, 40 state declarations
of labor, 9O1 city central bodies, 523
local trade unions and federal labor
unions, 4 departments, and S18 local
department councils.

A. F. OF L. DIRECTLY
CHARTERED UNIONS

There are 523 directly chartered To-
cal trade unions and federal labor
unions affiliated to the American Fed
GRAFTON with a membership of 23,426
and a defense fund of 1888 ,994.28 to
protect the members during strikes
and lockouts, declared Secretary
Frank Morrison in this report to the
1923 convention of the Federation.
Directly chartered local trade
unions are unoins in trades which do
not have as yet either national or
international unions. Federal labor
unions are organized where there are
not enough members in a trade to con-
stitute a local union.

basis Of organised labor's standing as
the protector Of the workers and the
promoter Of their interests.
The increasing financial ability OF
the American Federation of Labor is
shown by a glance at its budget for
the last 40 years.
IN 1888 the Federation's total re-
ceipts amounted to but $3.50. In 1898
the federation struggled along with
the modest amount of $20.s02. In
1908 the receipts walked up to $247,-
600. And for the 16 months prior to
the 1923 convention the receipts
reached $6S7,SS0.

executive council of the Federation,
received voluntary contributions to

convention. Contributions from the
national and international unions to
the fund for publicity purposes total
$~7,221.74; the fund for promoting and
advancing Rochdale cooperation, $4,-

Upon this point there is and has been perfect unanimity of opiriOn A simpli. fled and centralized system brOt closer home to Alaska is urgent y and obviously needed to speed the progress of the Territory - "a shortening of the line of com municatiOn as much as possible between Alaska and Washington as suggested by the late Presj- dent, in order to "bring about the closest cooperation and under standing between the national agencies operating in the Terri tory.
 1t is gratifying to report that cooperation in fuller degree anu a better under standing have been attained and that further coordination and increased effici clency are surel y coming about.

A concentration of au thourity and responsibility - a business like organization of A laska'S affairs, in lieu of dividede authority and responsibility certainly would would make for adm nis,rative efficiency and has ten the safe solution of TerritOr ial problems. That government through bureaus is good for any land or any community is too un tenable for sober discussion. E qually so is the thot that conser vation in Alaska is dependant up on such a system, or the abroga tiOn of Dureauracy would render the protection of the resources less secure.
 The Territory since it was granted limited form of self government has exercised it's powers wisely It administers it's purely local affairs efficiently and economically. It's legislatures, meeting in biennial sessions, have made exceptionally good re cords during the decade since the organic act was passed and, in personnel measured up to legislatures of the States. All plans for the future government of Alaska, in preparation for Statehood, should contemplate extention of Territorial powers and d fuller exercise of those powers.

want it, L would not only for America, but for the
sake of Europe itself, persist in believing that 1t
should not be granted.
Europe for it's own sake must establish Its
own modes of European peace. 1t must develop
even as we developed in 17S9-a policy capable of
maintaining friendship between Jealous separate
sovereign states. We made our Constitution not
under the ~tutelage of European policemen, but by
e~xertions which, since they were our own, gave us
n future stanchly and securely corresponding to
our needs. Europe must accomplish a similar
achievement in n spirit Of similar self-reliance II
European civilization Is to continue to be European
and if it is to be able accordingly to produce in
Europe a genuinely sound and healthy European
future.
81 imagine, however, that while a few misguided
Europeans and n few Americans may wish to fill
Europe with American soldiers or with the coerclve
shadow of them, the great majority OF Europeans
and Americans who speak of American interven-
ton desire not the help Of our soldiers, but the help
of our dollars.
Indeed, I have no doubt of it, and in this L
am confirmed by the contemporaneous publications
abroad. The Manchester Guardian recently said:
But until America is prepared to release Europe
from n great part of her debts American interveli-
ton must be confined to good advice. Advice, I'M
fortunately, will not stabilize the mark or fill a
hole in the French budget Here's the definite
mode of aiding Europe: Cancel the debt due or
give the money. L challenge those in official posi-
ton, who pirate of Intervening in Europe, econom'
ically or otherwise, to advocate cancellation OF the
foreign debt. They dare not do it. l challenge
them to advocate additional governmental loans to
Europe. Cancellation of the debt or giving more
money are the only methods Europe suggests Of
economic aid. Is the American exponent of Eu.
ropean interference really intending this, while
cloaking his l~achrymose utterances in general pre-
catory phrases? If so, it's hypocrisy we have to
combat, pretence and insincerity, for our people
will not cancel the debt nor make additional ad
yances.
81 insist that whatever financial help is needed
by Europe can be secured from our bankers with
out any assistance from our any
moment when Europe will so rearrange its own po-
litical affairs as to make an investment in Europe
a safe investment. Our government has made its
last loan for many n day to Europe. 1t will neither
loan more public money nor underwrite the loan of
private money"

False and Rotten Teaching.

newspapers print an editorial main
IL tanning in effect, that criminals are the prod
uct of our "Social System" and that our social sys'
TEN in turn is the product of our politicians, good
mon and women" and preachers. illustrations are
cited to show that it is poverty that drives girls
and boys to crime.
The assumption that poverty breeds criminality
is not well founded. Those who read the newspa'
pers know that crimes of violence are as often com
mitted by persons surrounded by comfort ana
even luxury as by those who are suffering prlVa-
ton. The story of the poor boy who steals bread
to save his aged mother from starvation and goes
to the penitentiary for life, or of the girl who gives
up her virtue because she cannot otherwise earn n
living, and is dragged to the work house for her
crime is good demagogue stuff for penny dreadful
journalism, but police authorities as well as your
common sense will tell you that instances OF this
kind are rare indeed. No one in this country need
choose between crime and starvation, yellOwjour-
nalism to the contrary Notwithstanding.
MOI is it true that church functionaries, politi-
clans and good men and women" generally get
ghoulish glee out of sending to jail the unfortunate
victims of surroundings unfavorable to the devel-
opment of character and capacity for self-support.
That sort of bunk" may sell papers, but 1t is the
most putrid sort of rot.
Ours is not so cruel, unjust and heartless a
SOCIAL system" as the penny dreadful writers
would have us believe. 1t Is possible, of course,
TO find an occasional case that would seem to bear
out so cynical a theory, but for every such case
there are a thousand where society holds out a
helping hand to the boy or girl ready to choose one
of the numberless opportunities for employment
rather than theft or prostitution as a means of
making a living. The theory that society, rather
than the individual, is responsible in general for
individual character is the output of a soft head
rather than a soft heart. Doctrine of that kind
may not be intended to destroy the fabric of society
tho purpose may be only to seduce pennies from
the hands of those to whom such sophistry appeals
but the overthrow of society an dthe substitution
of anarchy would be the inevitable result Of the
general acceptance of such doctrine. For If, as
the Hearst papers allege our general social sys-
tenn is the cause of criminality that it could not
be too quickly or completely oyerthrown for the
peoples good.
Mr.. Hearst's papers reach millions of people. As
the result of his journalistic undertakings Mr..
Hearst has made a great deal of money and &C,
quired a great deal of influence. Along with that
wealth and that influence comes a heavy response.
bility which ought to be SO fully realized that edi
torials vicious in their influence ought not be
printed for no better reason than that they are as
popular and as senseless as q comic supplement.

Handicap, Too Great.

TIME MAN who tries to get something for nothing
Il often gets nothing for something. And even II
he succeeds in obtaining that something without
cost in value to himself it tarries with him only
briefly and he has no real enjoyment therefrom.
b. The adventure has been tried since very early
times. 1t has been tried in all times intervening.
1t is tried day by day in every way in this day.
And no man has ever been able to make n perma'
nent success of it. Yet there are always enough
uninitiated willing to 60 against it to keep the old
institution alive and in flourishing condition, and
smarter than their predecessors and can get away
with it and outwit the other fellow.
There never was anything yet, worth having,
that was not worked for, traded for or bought anu
paid for. Some things may have been given, but
there was in most cases some consideration along
the line, and even gifts are seldom appreciated or
prized like things worked for or earned ana pald
for. Gifts are mostly quickly dissipated.
Things of value or things desirable are SO be
cause Of their scarcity. So, also, because OF the
coyetousness and selfishness of the members OF the
human family. These things are wanted, and the
possessors ARE not letting every Tom, Dick and
Harry take them for nothing. That will explain,
even to the child mind, the difficulty OF getting
something for nothing.
Certainly, you can secure some things for nothing
through theft, %swindling or other crooked means,
but then those practices arc wrong and there Is a
penalty in the law, in your conscience, or elsewhere
that you must in the end pay, SO the things you
thought you secured for nothing, have cost you
either all they were worth or more.
No, there is no system whereby you can get some
thing for nothing, that we have ever heard OF and
if you discover it, and make 1t work satisfactorily,
you are a real pioneer in this particular field.
The world and human nature are against you,
and they working together have not yet been over
come.
