best interest of the state. Gov. Hunt
stated that there were insidious inter-
ests trying to obtain control Of the
Colorado river and that he was OPP
posed to these interests gaining SUI
premacy. At the same time his peo-
pie were willing to go over into Cal
ifornia, obtain money there for Colo
RADIO river development, and when this
development was complete to carry
power into the camp Of the enemy and
sell the surplus. AS the needs of Ara-
zona We're only about 100000 horse
power, there would be available for
sale over in California, from one plant
on the river alone, fully 100000 horse
power. Thus it will be seen how these
fellows were to meet the enemy and
take him into camp. We were to de-
velop power and the enemy would
get the benefit. That there is no
doubt of this position, one needs not
be q seer or the son of seer. These

treated.

of which had greater potential inter

cluded that the best thing was to make
the conference permanent affair,
but not content with the preponder-
ance of anti-compact sentiment they
resolved that the governor appoint an
executive committee, and this COM
mittee was selected entirely from
among the opponents of ratification.
The little fellow who addressed the
chair during the meeting as Mr..
Chairman and honorable governor
was made chairman of this commit
tee, or rather sub-chairman as Gov.
Hunt was by the resolution, made per-
manent chairman Of the two commit
tees. This committee is to devise
ways and means for the development
of the Colorado river. 1t is to take

state. Let the people look over the
men who compose the governors. un-
biased convention and they will have
no trouble in asserting them from the
real citizenry of the state. The at
titude of the governor is based on an
effort to block the position of ex-
Governor Campbell, but it is in di-
rect conflict with the views of Direc-
tor Davis of the reclamation service,
Herbert Hoover, of the federal power
commission, Congressman Hayden, ev-
cry big man in every state in the Col
orado river basin, and every man who
has taken any position on the sub
ject in congress. He got off wrong
when the pact came under considera-
ton, and he was not big enough to
change about face when the issues
arose, and he is not big enough to take
the peoples views now.
His proposal to bond this state for
enough money to build dam in the
Colorado river and develop power, is
as futile as any of his other acts, and
before the people get through with
him and his "sneezersn he will have
backed down the line. Not one issue
has been met fairly or squarely by
Hunt or any Of his cohorts. The Max
weltian position has been shown to be
thoroughly false, and as the light is
let in or the positions Of the other
fellows it will be just as false as his.

off the proposal of Ex-Governor
Thomas E. Campbell for submission
of the compact to the people, and
with the view that when the work of
the compact was submitted to the
people they would swallow it, hook,

lowed so much of the Hunt dope.
Nevertheless, practically every speak
er had to face the compact, and many
of them, who had come to its obse-
quies, as they stated, had to come
back, dig up the remains and hold
another postmortem. Even the lanly
member from Cochise, who had buried
the compact several times, agreed that
it was not really dead and might even

U. $. Board Exposes
 BOasted Wage Gains

Washington, April 27,-Figures is- sued by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics do not sustain the inn pression that the workeEs can not carry their extra money because of recent wage increases.
 The bureau says that in March there was an increase over February of 2.1 per cent in the number of employees that reports were received on, an increase of per cent. in the total amount paid in wages, and an increase of 2.8 per cent. in the average weekly earnings. These figures were based on February reports from ,, 453 representative establishments in 43 manufacturing industries. covering 2,135, ,564 employees. The March reports were practically identical.
 The bureaus statement was issued before the steel trust and the meat trust announced their II per cent increases. If this II per cent. were an addition to a living wage, the increases would be substantial, but the increases apply to workers who are receiving but 30 and g cents an hour, and in some cases even less. This means that rates are raised to 40 cents an hour, which is less sensa- tional than when put in the form of per- Centage.

The Right To Strike;
 Its Importance.
By SAMUEL GOMPERS, President American Federation of Labor.

The. strike is the social and economic safety valve of industry. Without 1t we should have explosions and revolutions threatening the destruction of our social order. That IS one of the reasons why labor opposes efforts to hang legisla- tive monkey wrench on the safety valve of industrial organization in the United States. It opposes anti-strike laws, be- cause the retention by labor of the right and the power to strike insures a larger measure of industrial peace in the long run.
 Governmental inter ference with busi- ness Is not popular with the American people Labor's stand on this question IS expressed clearly in the annual report of the Executive Council to the Denver Convention of the American Federation of Labor, November 9, 1908, as follows
 Our movement has not asked and will not ask at the hands of government any thing which the workers can and should do for themselves. The movement of labor is founded upon the principle that that which we do for ourselves, individually and collectively, is done best. It IS therefore that the exercise by the workers of the economic power is after all, the greatest and most potent power which they can wield.
 The possession of great economic power does not imply its abuse, but rather its right use. Consciousness and possession of economic power bring with them responsibility, wisdom, and care in it's exercise These have made the labor movement of our country a tower of strength inspiring the confidence and

 This is a baseness that knows no conscience and no scruple.
 This touches the depths of deprav- lty. The communist reds stand at one end cf the social spectrum hurling one kind Of sinister invective at the true labor movement. The big busi- ness blacks stand at the other end, hurling another kind of villifcation and islander. Both play the game of destructive attack The trade union movement must carry the fight against both

The Connecticut labor news., 1923-04-27

The Cincinnati Industrial Associa- ton, using paid advertising space in the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, cries out in distraction:
 "Would you want the whole nation to be like Hcrrin?'
 These organized employers have no doubt that it would be nice if the whole world were like themselves.
 But of course that cannot be, since if all were employers and bankers and big business people, there would be none to do the work and none to consume the commodities.
 But take a minute to read what these employers say about Herrin:
 Murders of the most vicious type have been committed without convic- tions. People terrorized and> afraid to stand up for what they know to be justice The labor union rules-with an iron hand-an iron sword! A blot on the country!
 And they print that stuff, expect ing that it will be believed! Truth is, many will believe it.
 Now this Cincinnati Industrial As sociation stuff is the cheapest, mean est kind of slanderous generalization. But it is not their limit. They say: It Is not a far cry from the domi- nant policies of labor union leaders to violence" That is downright ly- ing It IS false and any person that knows anything about the American labor movement knows it is false.

Greedy Mine Owners
 Endanger Human Life

San Francisco, April 27-The state industrial accident cornmissi ion strikes back against critics of the commission who insist that moral courage" in mine inspection work is needed.
 The commission answers that 1t has attempted to enforce safety rules agreed to by the American mining congress, by federal and state mining bureaus, and by conferences of employers and employed.
 The commission shows how its efforts were blocked to connect mines with tunnels, and thereby permit trapped miners to escape. It was the absence of a tunnel that caused the loss of AZ lives in the Argonaut mine on August 27, 1922.
 Following this disaster, the commits sion held public hearings to consider mine safety. Strong objections were voiced "by one or two mine operators" says the commission, to any requirement for com pulsory connection between mines. It was pointed out that property rights would be infringed and that there was continual danger from gases or water seeping through the opening.
 It was this refusal on the part of a few mine owners that blocked the com mission in its effort to save life for the commission was legally advised that there was doubt whether safety orders could be formulated to meet the situa- tiOn"
