DON'T BE DECEIVED

DOlN L DE DECElVED
A combination of anti-union gar
ment manufacturers and former con-
vict-labor contractors have organized
the international association Of gar
ment manufacturers and are attempt.
ing to exploit the agitation for the
trade union label and against prison
labor. The association has label
with this inscription: "Made by free
labor. l. A. G. M. Not by prisoners. /"
This label is placed on skirts and
overalls handled by members of the
association.
The label is not registered and is
not indorsed by organized labor. It
does not bear the label of the allied
printing trades, and it can be secured
by any manufacturer who is permit
ted to make his own regulations,
working conditions and wage stand
ards.
"There is nothing to prevent men,
bers of abe association buying prison
made goods and attaching their label
thereto" said John j. Manning, Sec
retary-treasurer of the union label
trades department, A. F. of L. "This
LABEL" Mr.. Manning continued, "is a
recognition of the power of our agi-
tation for the bona fide trade union
label, which stands for collective bar
gaining and working conditions that
the trade union movement has estab-
lished.
"As the demand for the union label
becomes more insistent, fake labels
may bewilder and confuse consumers.
In the present case, organized work.

the label of the United Garment

ceived by the fake labels above re-
ferred to. Look carefully and see that

Northway gets through his barge

Hamilton. John is always thinking
big things for Hamilton, such as a
hotel, steel and gas plant, barge

much to worry about as to Hamiltons

constitution provides that when three
fourths of the states adopt consti-
tutional change, the secretary of state
shall proclaim that the amendment
has been adopted. The constitution,
however, makes no provision for the
secretary of state proclaiming the de-
feat of an amendment, nor does the
constitution set limit on the time
in which an amendment must be voted
on.

True it is that labor has had its
setbacks. But every movement hav-
ing for its purpose the advancement
of the cause of humanity is halted
now and again. And temporary de-
feats are not always without their
compensations, since they enable us
to better realize our shortcomings and
set about correcting them.
This prompts us to say--paradox-
ical though it may seem--that labor
never loses, but has the ultimate vic-
tory. For, after all, immediate VIC
tories or defeats count little in the
order of things; and whether they
do or not, this one fact stands out
unchallenged: the labor movement
goes on winning, winning-in sun
shine and in rain, in storm and in
calm-all along the line.
That is why we workers in the labor
cause are never discouraged. That
is why, when we are temporarily
worsted in the one contest, we lick
our wound, take stock of our position
remedy our shortcomings, and come
up smiling for the next assault.
For we know that however much
our enemies may assault the labor
movement, however much it's traitors
may try to stab it in the back, it will
continue to function for the good OF
humanity, because it is living
movement, possessing both soul and
spirit, and as such can never die.-Ex

WHAT UNEMPLOYMENT DOES

WHAT UNEMPLOYMENT DOES
Crime is either more rampant in
Ohio, police officials are more diligent,
on prosecuting attorneys are working
harder to bring about convictions. 1t
is probable that all three elements are
in way responsible for the rapidly
increasing population of Ohio's state
penal Institutions. The population of
the penitentiary in Columbus, the re-
formatory in Mansfield, and the wom-
ems reformatory at Marysville, all
are up to their record and new COM
mitments are being made daily. At
the boys industrial school, Lancaster,
and the girls industrial school, Della
ware, the population is also showing a
steady increase in spite of the fact
that paroling authorities are showing
their usual liberality to those en-
titled to consideratino. Both at the
penitentiary and reformatory prison.
ers are sleeping two in a cell which
was intended for only one person.
Unemployment is said by experts to
be far the greatest one thing to in
crease crime, and as there has been
considerable of this in Ohio during
the past winter, no surprise is caused
by the increased prison population.

1t has been suggested to the Press
that since we have to have it any,

LABOR AND THE RADIO

Trade unions must give attention
to the possibilities of radio broad
casting if they are not to lose pace
with the times, according to James M
Lynch, president Of the international
Typographical Union. Mr.. Lynch has
advanced the suggestion that broad
casting station should be established
either by the American Federation OF
Labor or by a cooperating group OF
large unions.

WOOD IS
FOR AIDING LEPERS
100 Sufferers of Island Of

First Ray of Hope.

In connection with the appeal of
Governor General Leonard Wood of
the Philippines for 81 600 900 to eradl-
cate leprosy from the islands, there
has been made public a touching
document of gratitude from the
stricken lepers themselves, IN Whlch
they declared the "star of hope" which
Gen. Wood had brought to them had

gaping jaws of an open grave claiming
us as it's prey"

essence of our lives. Through your
vivid interest in our welfare the new
treatment has been extended TO us,

I'VE have full confidence that who

any backward step relative to the
policy you laid out for Culion. but the
world can never deny that before you
came our newly risen star of hope was
not known then, the world cared very
little for our sufferingS and miserable
existence and we were left only to
take out our misfortune, the gaping
jaws of an open grave claiming us as
its prey
However, conditions have now
changed considerably, thanks to the
timely arrival of your excellency, the
acclaimed savior of lepers.
when you leave our shores, please
be assured that you shall carry with
