about all benefits conferred upon hu-

society that the entire comprehension
is so befuddled that nearly any man.
ner of statement will pass muster, if
presented with the proper manner.
However, unionism continues to
progress, and union members continue
to become better educated, the chill
dren of union members enjoying the
advantages of the public schools,
which have been instituted because of
organized labor's insistent demand
and constant watchfulness. And in
spite of all the propaganda of the
opposition the children thoroughly
understand that it is because of the
organizations of union men and
women that these opportunities are
made possible. Therefore as the
children come to the age of under.
standing they are consistent hackers
of the unions, for they realize that
unionism means Americanism, and il
is only through the unions that the
living conditions of the vast majority
of the population of the country will
be put upon plain right of living ano
progressive government.

INVESTIGATIONS COME HIGI

INVESTIGATIONS COME HIGH
The fact that at least three attor-
neys are drawing salary at the rate
of S18,S000 annually, while employed
as investigators for Attorney General
Crabbe became known when w. E.
Baker, director of finance, charged
that the emergency balance is being
endangered by this excessive cost.
The board of control has already al
lowed the attorney general $27 1000 to
conduct probe of the affairs of the
Municipal Savings and Loan Associa-
tion, Cleveland, and the work is said
to be far from completed or ready
for submission to any jury. Two of
these Investigators in this case are
being paid $1,000 a month, while the
third is said to be drawing $1,750 per
month.

Then he (Gen. Dawes) scored the
political party and weak demagogues
selected for office under the primary
system for failing to put down muir
derous labor wars and enforce the
principles of the open shop
"If political party should place an
open shop plank in thir platform with
view to it's crystalization into law,
it would be striking at the constitu-
tion just as much as the lawless labor
| leader, who in the interest of the
closed shop would order an American
citizen assaulted as he went peace
| fully to his work.
Questions like that of the open shop
will always be an issue among good
citizens, but these differences are not
| political They are economic, and
must be adjusted between employer
and employee, not by political par
ties. From campaign speech by
Dawes, Augusta, Me-, August %,
1924.
| I'm the next contest one of the
great parties, in clean-cut language
and without evasion, must take its
stand for the new bill of rights
against minority organizations, in
cluding labor organizations. The

issue be drawn. Let politicians try
to dodge it at their peril From the
New York Times account of speech
by Dawes before the Union League

UNION AIMS
The unions were originally organ
lied to increase the wages received
by workers, but they have come to
mean much more at the present time.
First came the gradual increase of
wages until there was something like
! adequate recompense for the laborer;
then came the shortening of the
working period, which has given the
worker an opportunity to interest
himself in some of the better things
of life; and then came the improving
of the conditions under which the
person must work.
To enumerate the accomplishments
of organized labor would be impos-
sible short of mammoth set of
books. But it is gradually seeping
through the minds of the public that
there are more modern advantages.
enjoyed by the public generally, di-
rectly attributable to the activity of
organized labor and labor unions than
to any other source. Strain to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
There is legislation regulating en-
ployment, which benefits the nom
unionists as well as the unionists,
credit for which is claimed by nearly
all social organizations and civic up
lift societies. And these claims have

THE SHAME OF 1T

A chain of grocery stores in Hamil
ton have been declared unfair to or
ganized labor because of their action
in discharging their clerks who took
out membership in labor union
Organized labor's action in declaring
these stores unfair has been given
much publicity and is known to every
union man and woman in the city
In spite of this, and for shame, it is
known that there are families of
union members patroniZing the unfair
stores. We say families of union
members get it?-and we can't say
it to strong; families of union mem
bers," mind you-not families of
union men" There is a difference
between a member of a union and
union man. One holds his member
ship because of what it brings him
only, and the other because of the
principle of the thing and because of
the duty he owes his family, himself
and his fellow worker Those fellows
who hold membership in trade union
and permit their families to spend
their union-earned money in unfair
stores ought to hang their heads in
shame, and are not fit to be recog-
nized as union men,
