Bentel, president of the Ascot

pear today for the arraignment on
charges of obtaining labor undar
false pretenses.
The charges grew out of the
Thanksgiving day 250-mle road

winning drivers were not paid the
prize money promised.
Z Bentel's arraignment was to be
before Justice of the Peace Baird
and his bond was set at $4,000.
"A. s. Menasco, one of the win
ming drivers, filed the complaint
according to the charges set forth
Bentel showed drivers certified
check for 100000 after they had
appeared hesitant about entering
the contest. Exhibition of the cheek
is said to have influenced Cliff Ber-
gere and others to enter the race

the association could pay the money
promised.

Labor Problems
Each morning of the session atten-
tion was directed to some pressing
labor problem. The discussion was
opened either by a trade unionist
who had had practical experience nj
the matter, or by some expert who
had Investigated the subject. This
leader presented the salient facts and
opened up the possible lines of dis
cussion. There followed full and
frank statements by all those in at
tendance. That the interest was
great is evidenced by the fact that
very frequently these discussions
lasted for more than three hours.
On the opening day, July z, Chris
Golden, president of District 8, Unit
ed Mine Workers of America, point
ed out the millions of dollars being
collected each year in royalties by
the descendants of those who bought
mining property for a song in the
old pioneer days. He told of accidents
in the mines annually outnumbering
the wounded in the American army
during the World war and of the
two miners who suffer death by acct
dent every day that the mines are
worked. He went on to outline what
seems to progressive miners the only
permanent way out, namely, nation
alization Of the mines with democrat
&c control Of their operation by the
workers and the technicians involved.
On succeeding days the discussion
centered on such problems as Labor's
responsibility in production, the B. q
0. plan, company unions, labor banks
and the labor press. Such authorities
Southwest Washington labor press. [volume] (Hoquiam, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1924-08-29

ported that the first classes organized
in the district had been formed in a
region where about $4,000 miners
are on strike against an attempted
reduction in wages. Seven classes
have been formed. The attendance
in each of the classes grows from
week to week. Not only the strik-
ing miners but their wives and other
members of their families attend.
The subject being studied in these
classes is the problem of coal mining,
and naturalization as possible So
luton. The booklets issued by the
Naturalization committee of the
United Mine Workers are used as
starting points for the weekly dis
cussions. Mr.. Fuller reported that
these classes are taking the place of
the ordinary propaganda meetings
held in connection with strikes and
are proving much more attractive to
the miners than the old-fashioned
type of mass meeting.
These successful summer sessions,
the first held in this country east Of
the Mississippi, mark further ex-
tension of Brookwood's usefulness
and a new step in the workers edu-
cation movement to which an inn
petus was given last fall when the
A. F. of L. at it's Portland convention
made workers education an integral
part of the American labor move
ment.

lions and the immense expansion in in
dustry which began soon after the Civil
war melted larger labor combinations
than had existed prior to that time.
Some of these formed the National La
Dor union, established at a convention
in Baltimore in 1893, which entered pol
tiles in 1872 by nominating the Labor
Reform ticket, putting Charles O'Conor
up for President. Its votes were few,
and 1t attracted no general attention
In the campaign. That broke up the
combination, and labor societies, as
societies, kept out of politics for the
next few years AS societies their
most extensive participation in politics
was in the congressional campaign of
1900.
Starting as a local secret society in
Philadelphia in 1869 and holding its
first general assembly in 1878, the
Knights of Labor was the earliest So
ciety which aimed to gather all the
workers of all trades into a single
organization. 1t had 100000 members
in 1886, with Terrence V. Powderly as
the head. Then began its decline and
fall. Its strike on the Gould system
of railways In st. Louis and the
Southwest in 1895 1t won, but the
larger strike In 1885 on the same roads
1t lost From that time onward 1t grad
ually shrunk in importance.
The American Federation Of Labor
rose as the Knights Of LabSr fell. At
a convention In Columbus, Ohio, In
1885 the American Federation Of La
Dor was formed, and 1t has gradually
absorbed nine-tenths of all the labor
organizations Of the United States. In
1t the several crafts retain their au-
tonomy, but are federal for purposes
of cooperation. In recent years the
American Federation Of Labor COM
prised 119' national and international
unions and claimed to have 100000
members. The afillated unions pub
lish 245 weekly or monthly papers de-
voted to the cause of labor.

statements at the opening of the
discussion were Mr.. Carl Harrison,
chairman of education committee of
the Atlanta, Ca, Central Labor
Union, and Mr.. Robert Fechner, gen.
eral executive board member of the
international Association of Ma
chinists. The subject of the confer
ence was What Labor Expects Of
Teachers in Workers Classes
Labor people urged that those
who are deeply interested in work.
ers' education should not try to go
too fast, giving the idea a chance to
take root in the minds of individuals
and organizations. They warned
against employing teachers who have
had no contact whatever with the la
Dor movement and particularly
against teachers who undertake to be
witty at the expense of their classes
and incur the suspicion of workers,
who like all other students dislike the
teacher who seems to take advantage
of them and expose them to ridicule
by his cleverness.
It was also pointed out that many
adult workers when the word educa-
ton is mentioned to them think inn
mediately of the school which they
attended when they were boys, where
they sat at desks studying subjects
in which they were but little inter-
ested, under teachers who failed to
stimulate thought and imagination.
Some how union publicity must make
clear the difference between that
kind of education and education ac-
cording to modern methods, such as
are employed in workers classes.
Great interest was shown in the
report that in Raleigh, N. c., all the
members Of all the local unions are
being canvassed individually by COM
mittees to find out what subjects they
wish to see taught in the workers
classes that are to be formed there
next fall.
Glasses for Strikers
On the last night Of the summer
session a very interesting report was
made by Mr.. Paul w. Fuller, who
has recently become the educational
director in District No. 2, United
Nine Workers of America, in Cen

BROOKWOOD, FIRST
LABOR UNIVERSITY

Nearly one hundred labor men and
women teachers stopped at Brook
wood Labor College, Katonah, N. Y,
for periods of from one day to two
weeks during the special summer ses-
sions held there on June 1928 and
July 7-20. The weather was ideal
nearly every minute Of the time, the
hills, woods, brooks and skies of
Westchester county never combined
to provide a more ideal vacation spot
than these labor summer school stu
dents enjoyed.
Convention Followed by Institute
The first session during the last
week Of June was held in co-opera-
ton with the National Women's
Trade Union League. Discussion
conferred on some of the important
problems confronting the labor move
ment at the present time. During
the preceding week the w. T. u. l..
had held its biennial national con-
ventiOn in New York City. About 80
of the delegates were brought to
Brookwood for the institute. This
is the first instance on record of a
labor organization following it's
business convention with an educa-
tional institute for the delegates, an
example which will perhaps be fol-
lowed by many others in the near
future.
This gathering, as well as the one
held during July. was remarkably
representative in its makeup. Labor
people were present from as far west
as Kansas City, Kan, as far east as
Salem, Mass, and as far south as At
lanta, Ga. international officials,
representatives Of central labor
unions and local officers were includ-
ed in the number. Members were
present from an imposing list Of in
ternational unions, including maehin-
lists, pattern makers, iron workers,
teachers, librarians, furriers, ANAL.

by Big Six Typographical Union in

eral days with those students who
were interested in the problem of
teaching English to workers.
DR.. Alfred d. Settled of the Bos-
