WESLEY TRIMS ALKABO AGAIN

Last sunday afternoon, the Westbv
base ball team, accompanied by a
crowd of local fans, motored to Aka
DO to play a return game with the
team of that place. The game was
a fast enc although the Westbv bows
were masters of the situation during
the entire game, trimming the Aka
DO boys to the tune of 7 to 3.
The days was an ideal one for base
ball and a large and enthusiastic
crowd was out, and the roofing was
intense on both sides.

Use of Telephones.

Twenty-Five years ago there was one
telephone in this country for every 81
persons. but now there is one for
every seven.
When a business man can do in 10
minutes over the telephone, the work
he might have had to travel hundreds
of miles to accomplish by the old
ways, there is saving of national
energy.
This marvellous system binds the
whole nation together like the nerves
in a human frame. As the action OF
our hands and feet follows the inn
pulse that travels from the brain oven
the nerves, so some director of energy
thinks in his office, and work Is
directed by telephone over hundreds
and thousands of miles
When the lines are clogged by long
conversations about nothing, or wher
people humble their words in an in.
distinct way, the operation of thi,
delicate mechanism is interfered with
much as careless handing of om
nervous systems will lower its eff.

Jacksonville Centennial
TO Feature Life of
Abraham Lincoln

jacksonville, ILL.,, Aug. ia page
ant that will dramatize incidents in
the life of Abraham Lincoln that are
little known, and yet which seem to
have had much to do with shaping his
career is being planned by this city
as the GROWING event of its Centen-
NAL year, according to statements by
Thomas Wood Stevens, who has been
engaged to write and direct the
pageant. Mr.. Stevens is head Of the
dramatic arts department of the Chi
cago Ant Institute, and has written
and directed several nationally known
pageants.
Mr.. Stevens wrote and directed the
st. Louis Pageant, the Belleville Cen
tennial Pageant, the Pageant Of the
State of Virginia and numerous others
in which he has handled various his
torical elements. But for the first
time in the Jacksonville pageant, he
is dealing with the Life of Lincoln,
and with that portion of his life dur
ing which he came in contact with
Edward Beecher and the group of
abolitionists which conferred about Hi
nois College in this city. Those who
have studied the subject are inclined
to believe that much of Lincoln's later
zeal as the leader of the anti-slavery
forces in the North was inspired by
those whom he met in Jacksonville.
The pageant will, also, dramatic
many incidents in the lives of Richard
Yates, the Civil War Governor of
Illinois; Gen. U. S. Grant, who
marched his regiment through the
streets of this city and camped near it
in the early days of the war; Col.
John j. Harding, the first soldier in
Illinois to volunteer fer the Mexican
war, who died fighting on the field of
Buena Vista, and others well known
in the history of the state and nation.
The pageant is to be given during
the first week in October. The var
iouS committees in charge are already
well along with their plans, and Mr..
Stevens has begun work on the
pageant scole. He recently read the
prologue to picked committee, and
the work has met with the approval
of the local management. The page
ant will use about fifty speaking
parts and five hundred characters in
| the complete cast.

paying dearly in inadequate wage
rates and inferior labor conditions.
There are companies with which ouf
Local Divisions have contracts that
had imposed these insurance and bene-
fit schemes upon our members, with
out consulting the organization and
have required the employees 10 jointly
contribute in paying the cost. Our
members had nothing TO say in estab-
fishing the insurance, bargaining is
terms or cost, or the sums If any,
they should contribute to this cost.
This Is not democfcy in industry. The
employees are supposed 10 be the
direct benefieiaries of this insurance,
bearing part of the expense and
should therefore have a say in its
establishment.
As well might We leave the fixing
of our wage rates and labor conditions
to the companies without conference
and without mutual agreement ex-
pressed by contract as to permit them
to establish and control the protection
that is due US from the industry. This
protection Is our ripht, as much a.
adequate wage rates and proper con-
ditions of labor are our right, and we
should insist upon full recognition of
the collective bargaining principle AMI
the signed contract to protect all OF
these rights"
The failure of many pension
schemes after employees had paid a
percentage of their wages TO help to
protect them in old age caused the
street car men to take the action they
have. The stopping of pensions paid
to employees of Morris & Compan.. the
big packers, after they had paid three
per cent of their earnings for years
demonstrated that if there are to be
old age pensions or other benefits paid
by employers it must be borne by the
industry.
The hope of the car men is that by
making the benefits a part of the con-
tract and placing the burden on the
industry that eventually these schemes
will be wiped out. Then the unions
can obtain higher wages for their
members and create their own benefit
systems to meet the cost of sickness,
death and old age.

"Welfare' Schemes Made
Part of Wage Contracts

The problems raised by company in
surance, old age pensions, sick and
accident benefits, group insurance and
other welfare" schemes conceived
by employers who desire to minimize
demands of their employees for better
wages and working conditions or TO
prevent them from organizing are IN
a fair way Of being solved.
After years investigation the
general executive board of the Anal
gamated Association of Street and
Electric Railway Employees has adopt
ed a plan which all these welfare
benefits are to made part of the con-
tracts entered into by local street car
mems unions in the future. And FUR
thermore, the cost must be borne by
the industry, no assessments upon The
employees being permitted.
The solution reached by the street
car men will be of value to all unions
that are faced with the various
schemes inaugurated to keep the Oh
ganized quiet and induce the morgan
lied to remain voiceless.
During the investigation of these
welfare schemes it was found that IN
some cases, and there were few, the
employer bore the whole cost. Others
collected from one to three per cent
from the employees with or without
their consent.
Local unions of street car men will
be instructed to place in their next
agreements for presentation to the
companies the following section:
"Saction PARTY If the first mart

Employers Use Four
Tricky Schemes To
Deceive Labor

The A. +. of l.. special committee
that Investigated the life insurance
business has exposed the pretense OF
those employers who profess such a
welfare in their employees that they
furnish them life insurance.
The committee says few workers UNI
derstand group insurance. They are
under the impression that they are AS
sured permanent insurance at a very
low, permanent cost, when, in fact
the rates are for one year and may be
raised at will. Each individual is in
sured as long as he is employed as a
member of the insured group.
THE purpose of this form of insur-
ance," the committee said, rs to bene-
fit the employer by reducing his labor
turnover and tying the employe to his
employment"
Group life insurance is one phase OF
welfare work that is so ardently
espoused by anti-union employers.
The company union is another
phase of trade union antagonism un'
der which the deceived worker is giver
| the form but not the substance OF sell
help.
| 1t can not be repeated too often tina
| the company union" is a concession
| by the anti-union employer to th'
spirit of organization that is so mani
fest even among unorganized workers
| The employer would check thi
spirit through union" he organize
and controls.
| Equally deceptive is the sale of com
pany stock to employees, who are un
acquainted with the speculative char
acter of all common stock.
| Every enchanting phase, every tune
full figure of speech is used to stlmu
late interest in this untruthful ant
misleading scheme that entangles tn
worker in his job by a belief he is as
| sured a fixed income in his declining
years.
Il The employers pension schem
, however, is the limit for trickery an
deception. Here again the worke
believes provision is made for his oil
/ age and that unity with his fellow
Is unnecessary.
, Only recently the secretary of tn
Chicago police pension board expose
the company-controlled pension plar
: which, he declared, will eventual
. collapse, but not until workers reac
an age when there is no relief TO
. their disillusion.
Former employees of the Morn
corporation, meat packers, can testif
to the trickery of the private pensio
plan. In that case the company sol
/ its plant to a rival company. and 40
employees, who believed they were as
. sured an income in old age if the
stunned the trade union, are helpless
= Organized labor must expose thes
receptions.
