Convict Labor Goods
Menace Free Industry

New York, Oct. 28.-No IaN-fespect-
ing manufacturer can meet the tax
subsidized competition Of convict la
Dor, says Kate Richards O'Hare, IN
statement released by the United
Garment Workers of America.
This union is associated with the
Union Made Garment Manufacturers
association in a joint attack on the
convict labor evil that is strangling
the garment industry.
with his overhead paid by the tax
payers, and paying one-slXth Of the
ordinary labor cost Of free workers,
the prison labor contractor has an
advantage that no legitimate producer
can meet according to the union
statement.
Zone great advantage that few ever
consider is advertising. The prison
labor contractor can spend enormous
sums advertising in and substituting
INSCRIPTIONS publications. Because
OF the tremendous power Of the prison
labor contractors advertising budget
there has been no widespread discus
sion Of this great social evil. From
1919 to the present time the Reliance
manufacturing company, particularly,
has flooded the pages Of farm, and,
we blush to say, trade union and re-
ligious papers, with their advertise
ments of prison-made goods In most
instances the editors did not know the
truth, and certainly the readers did
not, for the average normal person
will not knowingly use prison pro-
ducts.
Because the prison labor contfac-
tors are tax-subsidized and protected
in their robberies, they can, and do,
make prices and terms to deluded and
greedy merchants that legitimate man
ufacturers can not meet. 1t Is not
strange that with their many unfair
advantages they have been able to
hold the trade gained during the war
and have increased their business 500
per cent in three years.
"The question we are facing today
is: What will the social effects be if
the prison labor contractor drives all
legitimate garment manufacturers out
of business ?"

Labor Supports
Golden Rule Sunday,
December Sixth

December Sixth Is International
/ Golden Rule Sunday, a day sponsored
by President Coolidge for the promo
] ton Of international good will and a.
means OF focusing attention on the
needs of Near East Relief orphans IN
Bible Lands. $4,000 still look to
/ America for their very existence. OF
Ithi5 number So are less than four
teen years Of age. During the past
| twelve months 1000 either became
self-supporting or were placed out for
adoption.
Until the last orphan mas been
placed in a position Of self-support, |
am certain that the great organized
labor movement of America will con
/ tinue to give its earnest assistance to
the work of the Near East Relief,
states Frank Morrison Of the Ameri-
/ can Federation of Labor "fhe prac-
tee of the Golden Rule, the relief of
! the needy and stricken, is the mission
land purpose of the organized work
/ els of America
On the ffst Sunday in December We
are asked TO eat simple meal OF
/ bread and stew such as the orphans
have every day in the year. Then
make as liberal provision for their
! upkeep as We would like to have made
for ourselves if conditions were re-
versed.
While it is not expected that Ameri-
can families can prepare a four cent
meal on this occasion, (the average
cost of an orphans dinner in the
Near East, nevertheless it is well to
carry out the spirit of the day in some
sacrifcia form that we may more
fully realize our blessings. A Pfesl-
dent Coolidge has pointed out: This
eXprCsson of brotherhood inevitably
has a beneficial influence upon those
who give as well as those who re-
ceiye"
The Near East Relief is not only
feeding and clothing children under
It's care but il is also training them
for self-supp0rt. In all some twenty
different trades are taught denendlng
on the needs of the country where
the children are quaftered. At pres
ent the orphanageS are located IN
Syria, Greece, Palestine and Russian
Armenia.
During the twelve months from
January l to December 81 of 1924,
the service of Near East Relief
reached 554,9S7 persons, of whom the
great majority were women and chill
dren. OF this number were many be-
longing to races or nationalties that
had no legal claim upon the land that
had given them haven.
The service included food medical
aid, clothing, or personal service such
as the work of conducting the release
of Greek military and civil prisoners
from Turkey and immigration service
to refugees.
A total of 1852 children were
served, without taking to account
those provided with clothing outside
of orphanages or without taking into
account those with mothers who were
served among the total Of 554,978.
The American Federation of Labor
expressed its approval of this work
by the passage of the following reso-
luton at the October meeting in At
lantic City:
RESOLVED, That the American
Federation of Labor commends the
work of the Near East Relief and
recommends that local unions and cen
trail bodies cooperate in this humanl-

Labor Warns Un-American
Bill for Registering Aliens
Pressed in Next Congress


By international Labor News Service.
Washington. d. c, Oct. 2S.-Wain..
ing that a bill for the registration ana
finger printing of aliens VIII be
pressed i'm the next Congress IS gwen
by the Executive Council of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor in Its an
nua report submitted to the recent
Atlantic City convention.
That the warning is timely is indi-
Gated by reports that friends OF the
bill are active in it behalf and are
already seeking to line Congress
men for its support.
Bill Is Denounced.
The bill, which provides for the reg
istfation and finger printing Of the
100000 aliens now in the United
States and all who come hereafter,
vas introduced in the last Congress by
Representative Aswell of louisiana.
No action was taken on it, but 1t will
be pressed in the coming session OF
Congress, says the A. +. Of l.. EXecu-
tive Council, which goes on to de-
nounce the bill, saying:
Here are some of the provisions
of the bill which are so Objectionable
that it is impossible to believe any
American would sponsor such an I'M
American measure:
IF an alien leaves the district in
which he is registered he shall report
at such times and places and give
such information in regard to his
movements as may be required by
regulation.
Must BE Fingerprinted.
Each registration of identification
shall contain a photograph of the
alien, his fingerprints and other infor-
nation.
If the alien is arrested or convicted
of any offense such cases must be en-
tered on the registration certificate.
In an emergency the President in
the interest of national defense may
by proclamation require all or any
part of the alien Formulation to report
at such times and places as he shall
designate.
Whenever an alien changes his
name, or his physical appearance is
changed materially, he must report it
which he is registered.
keepers of hotels, lodging houses
or boarding houses must report any
alien in their employ and in the case
of new guests, dodgers or employees
report must be made within IL hours
after their arrival This applies to
corporations, partnerships and other
associations as we'll as individuals.
Broad Powers For Inspectors.
IAN inspector may enter any place
in which he has reason to believe an
alien is present and demand of any
person any information necessary to
carry out the provisions of the act and
to arrest or detain any person who re-
fuses him entry or refuses to give
such information.
''lf the alien after registering for
five years can read, write and speak
the English language Understandings
and has complied in all other respects
with the naturalization laws he can
be admitted to citizenship.
Some of those who are supporting
the measure contend that it should in
clude all persons in the United States.
The law does not apply solely to
adults as the bill provides that all
aliens under 10 years of age may be
registered by their parents or guar

Education Means
Straight Thinking
BY Spencer Miller, Jr.


Secretary Workers Education Bureau
CBefore A. +. Of L. Convention
If you are to ask trade uuionists t.
decide political questions on their
economic merits. you have TO give
them adequate knowledge about ec5uo=
mic questions
It men are to he partisan to pin
ciple rather than 10 parties, they nave
To know what those principles are.
1t L. easier to follow a man than a
principle. 1t requires less thought
and imagination. They have got II
understand the facts OF our compll-
Gated modern world and be able u
form intelligent opinions on hundreds
Of public questions that come before
them for decision. To the trade union
ist the world is his text book; his
curriculum is every subject under the
sun.
The substitution Of facts for fofmu-
las, of straight thinking for vague
congratulations, Is a part OF the dis
cipline Of education. What is meadt
b. the factual approach in education
is the search for the facts and the
basing Of opinions and conclusions
upon these facts. No mans opinions
are better than his facts To possess
workers with living, vital facts, the
workers education movement exists
in part.
There is, | believe, an inherent dis
position on the part of American
workers to face the industrial situa-
ton in "A realistic manner and with an
open mind American labor has con
Germ itself with those economic forces
IN the community which shape the
course of our development.
Education is, among other things,
the process by which man associates
the past with the present rs a guide
for the future.
Education is the indispensable meth
cd to give to the modern wage eafneis
and new trade unionists some of the
ideals, the struggles and the achieve
ment of organized labor in our nation
al history. We have long since reeog-
nized this fact in our requirements
for political citizenship. Everyone
must know the history of our country
and our constitution before he is ad-
mitted TO the full responsibilities Of
citizenship If this be true with
political citizenship how equally true
il is of industrial citizenship. For
upon the industrial citizens fall not
only the problems of government, but
of moral and economic standards, and
social problems of a far reaching ma
ture.
1t is significant in this connection
that the organization campaign which
you are about to launch will rely al
most exclusively on educational meth
DDS both of the spoken and printed
word, and Of the motion picture.
Workers education is the new meth
cd to meet new need in our indus
lrial world.

Must Go To Jail

Washington, Oct. 2S.-The United

conviction of Don Chain, former
sheriff of Logan county, West Vir-
ginia, and tool of anti-union coal OPP
orators. He was convicted of yiolat-
ing the prohibition act and fined $lO,-
900 and sentenced to two years in the

Chain was car of Logan county.
As sheriff he ran things with high
hand and surrounded himself with an
army of gun men, who were paid by
the operators to hi-iack any trade I'M

His gang believed they were above
federal law, and Chain began to boot
leg on a grand scale. Federal Off
