PASSES NEW CON-
PENSATION LAW

Charleston, w. Wa new COM
pensation law, which provides for
greater benefits to workers, has been
passed by the state legislature This
session of the law-making body was
marked by record attention to the
demands of labor.
While the bill to abolish the private
mine and guard system failed by a
close vote in. the senate, several other
demands of labor were approved.
These include a law requiring rock
busting and other protective measures
in coal mines that will go far toward
safeguarding the lives and limbs of
workers. A loan shark bill specifying
the interest rate these money lenders
may charge, was passed. Labor de-
feated all proposals to outlaw strikes.
Other measures favored by anti
unionists were defeated.
The workers will renew their fight
against the private mine guard sys-
TEN, which was denounced by the two
major parties in their platforms.

JUST A FABLE

Once upon a time seaman, through
the efforts of his union, had received
increases until his wages reached 500
per month, ST per hour for overtime,
ETC.
Then he said to himself: "The
union can not get me any higher
wages, and / don't like the way the
union is run, anyway, so why con-
tinue to pay dues ?" He became sus-
pended.
Time passed and the inevitable
happened. His wages dropped down
and down until, at sos per month, he
finally decided to square himself with
his union.
He was reinstated and the long pro-
cess to regain his higher wages start
ed all over again. In the meantime
the employer had waxed fat on the
extra profits, while the losses of the
| disgruntled one were gone forever.
