COMPANY UNION TRIBUTE
TO ORGANIZED LABOR

The company union is in fact a
very genuine tribute to the effective
ness of the real trade union. It is
recognition of the principle that there
is need for an agency through which
the will and the experience of wage
earners can have an influence. in the
determining Of issues affecting wage
earners. But some employers want
the constructive advantages Of collect
i've action without what they con-
slider its drawbacks. Drawbacks to
them consist in that power and re-
sourcefulness that enable the unions
to secure for the ideas of the work.
ers that consideration which is right
fully theirs.
Certain employers object to the pre-
| sentation of views except those which
sustain their advantages. Employers
of this type resent the trade union be-
cause it functions independently of
their control. Trade unions by fed
Grafton create an organization par
alelling the industry and hence have
power comparable to that of the en-
ployer. Their special experts have
knowledge of the whole industry as
well as the technique of collective
bargaining.
The company union or whatever
name is given the representation plan
provided by the company, exists by
the desire of the employer. Certain
employers claim that the company I'M
ion makes possible cooperation be-
tween management and workers in
production problems. Such coopera-
ton with unions they claim is impos-
sible because, as they say, unions are
organized for militant purposes only.
There is no Justification for this de-
claration for employers themselves
made it necessary for unions to en-
ploy defensive and militant purposes
and methods. Unions have been fore
ed on the defensive. Cooperation in
wolves recognition Of reciprocal rights
and duties.
There are convincing proofs of the
economic value of union management
cooperation, which demonstrates that
the cooperation between company un-
ions and management is most super
fetal.
Wage earners will do themselves
and industry a great service when
they capture company unions and
convert them into real trade unions.
The machinery Of the company union
offers strategic advantage for such
tactics. Use that machinery as a bas-
is Of a real organization.

Il think" said President Walker,
1--WE will discover John NJ. Glenn and
his associates, are the rich criminals in
every state, responsible for most Of
the crimes that have been committed,
particularly during industrial dis
putes."
Delegate Charles Will of Chicago
branded the manufacturers interest
in law enforcement as hypocritical.
"Never before in the history of our
state, where pardons were issued to
murderers, rapists, bankers and crimi-
nails of all descriptions, were there a
protest from John Glenn" said the
Chicago trade unionist. "Now when
Governor Small saw fit to pardon
these victimized men, who were not
properly represented in court, we hear
a howl"
It was stated that the manufacture
ers' petitions were circulated among
those who were unacquainted with the
situation and in non-union shops
where workingmen signed in fear of
losing their jobs.

FIGHT WILL CONTINUE
FOR CHILD AMENDMENT

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 22.-An en-

Of the federal child labor Amendments.
President Green voiced the judgment
Of the delegates when he declared
that the campaign for this amendment
"will go on as long as we live and
into succeeding generations until
the children Of America are saved"
He said vicious propaganda changed
an almost universal opinion in favor
Of the amendment. Chambers Of COM
merce, manufacturers associations,
textile employers and others who prof
Il from exploitation Of child labor
were listed as leading opponents Of
the amendment.
The principal opposition Of farm

cause they were told their children

work around the farm or house until
they reached that age. He called this
malicious misrepresentation" The

edition, containing complete program
for the fight against child labor as
well as the latest news about the
progress of the child labor amend

The child labor amendment has

activity within the Obregon army.

The building trades unions are well

Busy Season for Building Crafts.
During January permits were taken
out for half a million dollars for in
dividual homes. Other building oper-
ations planned gives promise of
busy season for the building crafts.
Bricklayers receive $15O per hour,
plumbers, $1.371A and other crafts re-
ceive about the same. There is no
unusual unemployed situation in the
building industry at Des Moines.
During the fall of last year the
trades and labor assembly of Des
Moines established labor college.
History, English, economics, house
hold arts are among the subjects TAX
en- up. The teachers are professors
from the universities close to Des
Moines.
The purpose of the institution is "to
grant to the employed people of the
city an opportunity to receive a more
liberal education at a minimum ex-
pense." The school operates for twen-
ty weeks, Tuesday and Thursday eve-
nings, and the tuition for any one of
these courses is $1OO for ten weeks.
The larger part of the finances for
operating expenses are to be raised
thru subscriptions from labor organ
iations. The classes are held in the
Polk county court house.
The history of the trade unions is
not included in the course. Labor
law, dealing with Industrial legislation
and real estate law have ben given
place on the curriculum. Occasionally
open forums will be conducted in con-
nection with the school when special
lists in particular field will speak
and the students given an opportun-
ity for discussion.
There is apparent sincerity upon the
part of the unions to help the workers
acquire a broader education. They
have not yet learned to distinguish
the difference between the ethics and
economics, history and psychology of
the working class and that of the can
italist system.
The Juveniles.
Recently the Trades and Labor AS
sembly launched an organization for
children of union members between
the ages of IL and Is years. This is
known as "The Juvenile Federation of
the Des Moines Trades and Labor As
sembly." A charter has been issued
to the federation as an auxiliary to
the assembly.
There are between 60 and 20 young
sters in the federation who conduct
their own meetings. Lectures are Civ
en- from time to time on various sub
jects. 1t is more social than educa.
tional, but the children seem to enjoy
