WORKERS WAGES
CUT IN HALF IN
U. S. BEDDING co.
BY VICTOR voLkMANN.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, July 5.-The ma
jority of the workers in the U. S. Bed
ding Co. Of st. Paul, are young men.
Wages range from rs to 40 cents an
hour, except for a few sample heads
who receive more. Many family-men
work for 3215 cents an hour; that is,
they get no more. At present the men
work ten hours day. Two years ago
1.-THE spring makers received one dollar
for every spring they made; now they
get fifty cents. Two wage cuts occur
red in the mattress department dur
ing the last six months.
Sanitary conditions, are terrible.
The dirty water from the toilet on the
second floor drops on the heads of the
workers on the first floor. The place
is cleaned only the day before the in
spector comes. There is no steam
heat in the factory. except when it is
impossible to work even with your
overcoat on.
Three Accidents In One Week
Many accidents happen right along.
Three accidents occurred last week
the men lost parts of their fingers.
They promise the workers golden
treasurers when they start, but once
they ask for raise, out they go. AS
a result, the workers are unorganized.
The boss himself is an Israelite and
he boasts of liking Jewish workers.
The reason for it is simple, he gets
the least protected workers and pays
them the lowest wages.
A national hatred is set up in the
shop between the American and Jew
ish workers; consequently, the work
ers forget their vital interests.
The workers are fooled with picnics
and other such affairs. The workers
cover the expenses, but the boss gets
the advertisement.
Spies room about the factory and
the workers are not aware of It.

reliable information, it is estimated
that there were less than three hun
dred employees left in all the services
of the Chinese Eastern railway by June

Soviet or Chinese citizens-most of
them being former white officers who
possess no special qualifications for
their posts and are but dead weight
for the railway. Their going, there
fore far from unfavorably. affecting
the normal working of the enterprise,
is expected to yield useful results
from the business and the financial
viewpoints.
The dismissal of such employees
was begun on June 1, all the neces-

been gone thru.

nights. D. m. to 5 a. M, Saturdays
$3.50 a. m. The work is piece-work
and each one works as fast as he can.
I am all in when morning comes.
The Waterman in our place, an old
man, near 70 years, who used to be
a weaver till he got too old and was
thrown on the scrap heap, works 81
hours week for $40. He works 10
hours a day, days or nights week,
never day of.
Women Work All Night.
Here in Rhode Island women are al
lowed to work nights and there are
young girls who work with me till
five o'clock in the morning. Then
there are mothers with children who
work such hours too. Many OF the
workers are women.
Our work is very hard on the eyes,
especially at night with the bad light
given US. Many weavers lose their
eyesight or must give UP their work
on account Of bad eyes. In silk work
sometimes there are as many as
$4,000 threads covering only 45 to go
inches on a single machine. Each one
of these threads must be watched and
fixed when necessary and so you can
see how fine the work is.
The noise in this mill is not so
great as in cotton mill where /
worked last. One could not speak be-
cause of the noise. Everything was
done by signs. Many Of us weayers
go deaf in time. In the cotton mill,
in spite of humidifers, cotton fills the
air and our lungs. Thousands of tex
tile workers suffer from lung troubles,
consumption and tuberculosis.
Pay is wretched. Good weavers
working full time seldom make over
sS2 weekly anywhere. Many make
as low as $14. The average would
be between $40 and s25.

This large amount OF tax money
coming into the Golfers of the village
also has an effect on labor conditions
Nc Work in Winter.
The principal industry is open-pit
mining and the season usually lasts
from about May to December and
during the winter many workers are
unable to secure employment in the
mines. va H.
In the past the village has used
large part Of cts tax money to keep
these mine workers employed during
the winter months. OF course this
plan has been fought by the u, S.
Steel Corporation which pays the
largest share Of this tax money into
the village treasury, but they appeal
ed in vain to the local politicians to
stop this practice. For, the village
election came in March and they
knew that they must keep these men
at work to get their votes. OF course
jobs were plentiful just preceding an
election.
OkGCl Trust Eif0lIS IdNC6s
Being unable to stop what it called
the "extravagant expenditure" of vii
lage funds the steel corporation man
aged to put law thru the legislature
limiting the tax levy to 500 per cap
tia which cut the amount that could
be raised by taxation to about half of
what it formerly was.
But even this did not bring about
the results that the steel trust wanted
as the politicians still used the funds
to get votes and cut down on the
amount spent for permanent improve
ments.
Steel Trust Wins. 7sase
Again the steel corporation went to
the legislature and secured a law
changing the election to December in
stead of March, thinking that as the
workers would be employed in the
mines during the summer and fall
months it would not be necessary for
the office seekers to use the village
funds to keep the miners at work to
get their votes as they did when the
election came in the spring. g.
Hundreds Seek Jobs. cye
That the steel corporation got what
they wanted was evidenced last win
ter when hundreds of men stormed
the village employment Office looking
for work and only few secured work
on half time and the Worlds Richest
Village" undoubtedly had a greater
percentage of unemployment than any
city in the country! G
Wages Slashed. srsfat
After winter of hardships and suf-
fering the workers were ready to ac-
cept whatever wages the steel cor
poration wished to pay in the spring
and conditions are the worst in the
history of the community. y3w8
