EIGHT HOUR DAY GAINING
GROUND IN EUORPE

GENEVA.-NThe director of the in
ternational labor Office has announced
to the international Labor confer
ence, now in session, that 1875 ratif-
cations of international labor con-
ventions have been registered to date.
At the sitting of the conference,
Rhys Davies, British government del
egate, confirmed the report that the
British government intends to pro-
seed forthwith with a bill enabling
the government to ratify the Wash
ington eight-hour convention. Mr..
Justin Godart, the French govern
ment delegate, announced that the
French government is also prepared
to ratify the hours convention.
The international Labor Office has
also been informed by the minister
of labor of Latvia that his govern
ment has submitted to the national
assembly the ratification of the eight
hour day convention, with the reser-
walton that it become effective when
ratified by the countries of chief in
dustrial Importance.
The attempt made in the Czecho-
Slovalian parliament to exempt ag-
ricultural workers from the eight
hour day legislation was defeated al
most unanimously, only five members
voting in favor of the abolition of
the eight-hour day in agriculture.

every Central Labor Council in the
state and by practically every local
union They have also been endorsed
by the Conference for Progressive
Political Action and by the Disabled
American Veterans, and their candi-
dacies are being actively supported
by every organized group of farmers
and all progressive women's organi-
cations of which we have any xnowl-
edge; by the Railwaymen's Political
Club; by all the organized friends
of the prohibition law, and by the
author of the Bone Power bill and all
his lieutenants. This indicates a spirit
of revolt against the tyranny of
courts that is entirely unprecedented
in the history of this state. If this
revolt is successful, it bespeaks for
the future a more enlightened and
progressive attitude on the part of
the supreme court.
Judge William H. Pemberton was
superior court Judge Of Whatcom
county for several years and two
years ago was elected to the supreme
court by q handsome majority Of
more than 10000 votes. His record
on the bench is that Of an able law
yer, a progressive thinker and a
courageous Judge.
w. d. Lane has been a member Of
the state legislature, a member of
the Seattle city council, and both in
public Office and private life has
won the respect and admiration of
friends and opponents alike for his
able and fearless advocacy in the
peoples cause.
Judge Bruce Blake has been for
many years judge of the superior
court of Spokane county, a position
he still holds. He comes to the peo-
pie of Western Washington with the
highest endorsement from organized
labor and every progressive organiza-
ton of Eastern Washington.

Progressives who have heretofore
taken an active part in supporting
progressive legislation will probably
be interested in supporting a judi
ciary ticket committed to the pro-
lection of progressive laws after
their enactment.
Too many such laws have either
been declared unconstitutional or rem
dered ineffective by the interpreta-
ton of our courts. AS examples of
this your attention is directed to the
s to 4 decisions of the United States
supreme court, invalidating the orig
inal income tax law and the later
child labor law.
By similar decisions the state SUI
preme court has done much to I'M
dermine the initiative and referendum
laws; has uniformly Disseminated
against public utilities; has declared
unconstitutional a law to protect the
farmers against the sharp practices
of INSCRIPTIONS commission mer-
chants; another law to protect farm
ers against the adulteration of stock
feed with sawdust, grange hulls and
other refuse; and the statute fixing
minimum fees for the publication Of
legal notices. Other examples might
be added in large numbers but space
forbids.
In every case the larger rights of
the people as a whole, have been sac
rificed to the selfish interests of a
class. Usually organized labor and
the farmers have been the most di-
rect sufferers. And because of this
the progressive people in the state
have united in this campaign as never
before to defeat Judges Main and
Mitchell, and to elect Judge William
H. Pemberton of Bellingham, w. d,
Lane of Seattle, and Judge Bruce
Blake of Spokane.
These men have been endorsed by
the State Federation of Labor; by

future DEVELOPMENT
OF HARBOR DISTRICT
By GEO. M. POWELL

Our county contains l 100000 acres
of lands, 100000 of which are within
the Indian reservation and the forest
reserve. In fact, just $4,000 acres.
OF these $4,000 acres, 100000 are
cut over; $4,000 are standing tim
Der; $4,000 included in the farms,
and $4,000 of which are under the
pillow.
From this we see that there are yet
within this county $4,000 acres of
timber, more than twice as much as
has been cut over. This indicates that
these big mills will not be hauled out
and taken to Alaska for a good long
time.
It is said that the Mark Reed Lum-
Der interests at Shelton have a 60
year future, and that Longview has
the same. If a common carrier is
not built into the West Olympics and
if the Grays Harbor Iumbermen are
as far seeing as is Mark Reed, there
will be a big lumber business on
Grays Harbor for at least as long
go years., but no one lives who
knows.
Cut-Over Lands
Of these 100000 acres cut-over
lands, Mr. Calder estimates $4,000
acres fit for farming and the 100000
acres must be reforested and on that
proposition we differ Numerically.
1t seems that many people think
that this whole country can be re-
forested and a second thought only
teaches me that even cigarette fires
will destroy more than nature can
grow year after year and cigarettes
are only one source of the many
sources of forest fires.
This whole state has had many
fires all over except at Neah Bay,
within the last 400 years, and the
Southwest Washington labor press. [volume] (Hoquiam, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1924-08-29

coast-wide fires of 1867 occurred
when there were only a handful of
Indians and far fewer white men.
That 1867 affair sent pail of smoke
for 1000 miles out over the Pacific
ocean all along this coast and good
old Glenn Peterson at Westport could
not tell night from day.
Now, with nearly 100000 people
in this state, with all the modern
improvements that can cause fires,
how can we enter into a wholesale
reforestation scheme?
Again, we all know that the mill
men have made their money out of
their clear logs, but all do not remem-
Der that these big clear logs were old,
old-from 300 to 600 years old. 1
counted the rings on an S-foot spruce
and found 1896. / counted the rings
on an 8-foot fir standing on a dry
ridge and found 621. A 12-foot cedar,
of course hollow, must have been 800
years old.
In fact, reforestation for making
millionaires and great general pros
perity is dream, dangerous dream
that, if followed out on a wholesale
plan, will destroy these cities instead
of perpetuating them.
Big Mills to Go
These big mills will be pulled out
when this big timber is gone and
small ones that can be hauled around
on a fve-ton truck will take their
places, but not their locations. This,
then, leads me to reverse Mr.. Cal
der's figures and say of this 100000
acres now cut over, but $4,000 are
fit for reforestation and will refor-
est itself and will not burn, while the
remaining $4,000 must go into
farms.
Fish, Crabs and CLANS
Remember, that the highest grade
for farm lands means grain, or dairy,
or fruit lands; that the next grade
means beef or sheep and the farms
are large in area; that the next is for
sheep and goats and that means that
finanlly this wonder land Of Grays
Harbor will one of vast diversified
farm land.

DR.. Schwefel, who will conduct the
series of lectures, came to Washing
ton two months ago, as the newly
elected rabbi of the Sixth Street
Synagogue, and many have heard
Kim lecture during the past Jewish

friends among the leaders of the
the Zionists, the Norddau Club, the
Jewish Community Center and many
other organizations.
The new Friday night venture will
be of great value to the Jewish com
munity, and every effort will be made
to make the service and lectures OF

lyric voice has attracted many to
the Sixth Street Synagogue. will con-
duct the Hebrew musical service

Rabbi Schwefel will read the English
prayers and deliver the address. The
board of the congregation has an
nounced that Dr. Schwefel is plan
ming to speak on subjects of current

important national and local occa.
sions, problems of American Jewish
life and vital questions which will
be asked by those who attend will

dresses.
