politicians-by men whose special function is politics-who live and think only in terms of politics. It is there fore evident that politics does have a great and grave effect on our business life every day and every hour.
 While fault is justly found with the government intruding itself too far in to business affair, and in being prompt ed altogether too often by motives not for the public good; it is true, like wise. that business and business men have interfered altogether too much ln governmental affairs and are them selves the creators of that govern mental monster that now threatens to devour them body and soul
 Again, the remedy should be applied to the cause and not the effect of the evil In these days, when the govern ment deals with all the vast concerns of business, coal, railroads, ships, oil, tariffs and the like, 1t Is simply lntol- erab1e that these large business en- terprises should be permitted to con- tribute large funds to political parties, political aspirants or political manlpu- 1ators. A1cost invariably these unusual sums of money are not given merely because of a common interest which

On every side one hears the fear ex- pressed that the government IS lntrud- ing itself too far into the industrial and economic life of the nation. More and more are the people advised that political government is unfit to deal with economic, industrial and commer- cia1 tendencies and developments.
 Unfortunately, the fear expressed IS founded upon reality and the advice given IS based on fact and known eX- perience. We have today approximate lv coco law makers throughout the land and somewhere near 6,OOO laws are enacted each year. In one way or another, more than half these laws affect the economic, industrial and /conmercial life of the nation. More and more the conduct of industry IS removed from the domain of employer and employed, who are familiar with their particular trade tendencies and intricacies and their business IS thrown into the hands of men skilled only III the legal devices and artifCeS to ob- tain from those, who do hte construc- tive work, the fruits of their toll and appropriate them! to those who live without toll.

BY THE w A Y
Comment and Criticism About Things
 Doing in the World.

Believers in the Increasing misery theory and pessimists who hold that the world is not progressing toward better things are invited to study the eighth annual report of the National Industrial Conference Board, which Is controlled by big industrial interests unfriendly, in the main, to labor. According to the report, the Amer ican wage-earner was about one-th1rd better off last spring than he was at the outbreak of war in 1914 as re- gards his pay and his workday was shorter.
 The report declares that the Amer ican wage-earner is at present better off than he has been at any time III the history of American industry. This is said to be true despite the fact that the workers money earnings have not reached the high level attained in mid summer in 1920, when the cost of liv- ing was also at it's highest point.
 The report plainly indicates that the position of the great masses in Amer | ica is steadily improving. Though or ganized labor is not given the credit | for this improvement i'll the report, 1t is universally admitted that the trade l union movement is largely responsible | for the present position ot the Amer | ican worker. The report, in fact, IS tribute to the efficiency of organized labor. Those who say that organized labor is all wrong won't like to draw this conclusion from the report, but It | IS the only conclusion that thinking man or woman can draw from studying
 it.
 | British and German trade unions
 are giving a splendid exhibition ot 1n-
 ternationa1 solidarity and friendship.
 Forgetting the bitter hatreds of the war, British workers have been giving
 effective support to the German unions
 in their struggle to prevent the em- 1 p1oyers from lowering standards ot
 living in Germany.
 ] That the German workers are grate-
 ful is shown by a letter from Secre- tary Leipart of the German General 1 Federation of Trade Unions, thanking
 the British Trade Union Congress tor 1 it's moral and other help.
 The letter conveys the hearty | thanks of German trade unionlsm to
 the English trade unions for their will ing and se1f-sacrifcing help, without
 which we certainly should not have | been able, as we now are, energetl- ca11y to oppose the employers in their attempts to lower tn e conditions o1 | labor"
 The letter is a fine tribute to the spirit of British labor and shows that

BaerfaCts By J. M. BAER The Congressman -Cartoonist
 International Labor News Service. Poor Wages Bring Mail Robberies

The veto by President Cool idge of the postal salary bill presages recurrence of condi- tions of few years ago when because Of inadequate salaries so many regular employees left the postal service In an effort to get men into the service ex- aminations were simplihed and standards lowered This meant a great lowering of efficiency and burdening of the loyal employees who stayed in the service with extra work and overtime.
 Despite this 1t was impossible to get a sufficient number of Civil Service employees and the employment of temporary men was resorted to in order to keep the mails moving. Temporary employees were put to work with out examinations, and i'll most instances, without proper char acter references. The rif1raf of humanity, especially in hte larger cities and industrial cen ters, were suddenly thrown upon the postal service.
 In Chicago there were over 1000 of these temporary em- p1oyes, and other cities had about the same proportional number. All of them were inexperienced. Most of them were inefficient, and many of them were incap- able of performing the kind ot work required of postal em- p1oyes. Owing to the fact that it was so difficult to get men in to the service to replace dis
The Connecticut labor news., 1924-07-12

charged employees, practically none were discharged, and there fore discipline was impossible. This lax method oi employment brought many questionable character into the service.
 These men were employed in every department, and in Chi cago at one time, over 100 of them were employed in the Reg istry division, where valuable mails and assignments of money were handled.
 About that time robberies of mail trains and trucks became so numerous that it was necessary to call upon the Marines to guard mail trains, trucks and loading platforms. Since that time the Marines have been withdrawn but chauffeurs and clerks have been required to carry sidearms.
 Many of these robberies have been shown to have been plan ned by temporary employees who were in the service, or in col fusion with them. This was true of the Whiting robbery.
 The recent mail robbery in the vicinity of Chicago Is said to be an inside job" First Assistant Postmaster General Bartlett has stated in the press that there is to be a cleanup of the postal service. The best way to insure honest and efficient employees is to create conditions of employ rnent that will attract that kind of men.

British and German labor have been really working together and not mere 1y talking about cooperating.
 From study of sickness i'll South Carolina mill communities, the United States Public Health Service finds that persons of all incomes in the populations studied were affected by slight illnesses to about the same ex- tent, but those in the lower income classes were affected in a much great CT degree by severe and chronic ill- nesses than those in the higher in come classes.
 This is only another way of saying that workers earning high wages are healthier than those earning poor wages. Farmers of high wages are also happier and more contented and better citizens in every way, fact that organized labor has been point ing out for many years. Labor ,how- ever, is always glad to see it's views upheld by other agencies and 1t IS particularly pleased when its views are imported by Government experts. Ih1s lis just what the report of the Pubic Health Service does. It deserves the widest kind of circulation and public ity.
