WHAT UNIONIsM REPRESENTS

Trade unionism no longer repre-
sents simply an elemental demand for
high wages and a short work day.
Any trade unionist who thinks that
the movement now does not stand for
something better, higher and broader
than these two basic things is a s'back
number"-he is behind the times and
is not keeping step with the great
march of progressive economic and
industrial events. Gone forever. for
tunately, are the days when trade
unionists denoted only such funda-
mental idea regarding the rights and
aspirations of wage-earners of this
county, and gone forever are the DAYS
when a worker could consider himself
a good, loyal and 100-per cent unionist
by just paying his dues and carrying
trade union membership card That
may have been all that was required
to be in good standing" quarter
of a century ago, or even decade
ago, but not now. Times have chang
ed. Trade unionism is on a much
higher level now than it was in 1900
or 1915, and every man who claims
to be real, genuine trade unionist
must rise to the same level that trade
unionism has reached in recent years.
Fortunately, the cause of trade
unionism always has been blessed
with brainy and aggressive leaders
men who were we'll informed regard
ing current economic and industrial
conditions; men who were conserva-
lively progressive, and men who, be-
ing safe and sane, knew how far to
advance without jeopardizing their
prospects of victory or endangering
the accomplishments already achieved.

TRADE UNIONISM PAYS

Americas workers have built the

organization that has adapted itself

economic power in proportion to his
producing ability. BY joining hands
and directing our power in further

human agency that is stronger than

PURPOSE OF WELFARE WORK

It is significant that welfare work
is the rule only in anti-union plants.
Where employers maintain rela-
tions with organized labor these work
ers are not coddled by welfare work
ers and other uplifters.
A recent decision by the United
States board of tax appeals reveals
why anti-union employers maintain
such an interest in their employees.
The decision was made in the case
of the Poinsett Mills of Greenville,
S. C. This corporation asked that
the money it paid for welfare work
be deducted from its income on which
taxes must be paid. In granting the
request, the board of appeals said:
'The foregoing facts show that the
Poinsett Mills had consistent policy
of welfare work among it's employees
which, as the president of the cor
poration testified, was necessary tO
produce an attitude of contentment
toward the company among its en-
ployes, to equalize the lesser wage
scale established in the section in
which the company operated with a
somewhat higher scale paid in other
sections, and to reduce the volume OF
labor turnover.
Such being the purpose of the con-
| tribution, we can not but feel that
the intent of the company in making
the contributions here at issue was
| one for purposes connected with the
| operation of its business"
This decision is notification tx
anti-union employers that they neec
| pay no taxes on welfare work expen
ditures, as this system makes it pos
sible for workers to be contented with
low wage rates.

PROBLEM FOR EDUCATORS

fhODLCM FOR LDOOAlOho
Before very long college educators
of this country will have to face a
problem that they have been getting
nervous about for several years. 1t
is problem that is being felt in
England as well as here.
Are the colleges of the country
merging into country clubs for the en-
joyment of the sons of the rich, or
are they to turn sharply to the right
and take up their historic mission of
being first of all educators of the
youth of the land?
The thing that is worrying the
authorities of American colleges, es-
pecially the large Eastern ones, is the
tendency of athletics to become the
chief pre-occupation of the attending
youths, sometimes ironically called
students"
The "sound mind in a sound body
talk has always been propaganda.
There are many ways of having
sound bodies other than attending the
collegiate football games, boat
races, golf tournaments and trap.
shooting matches. The truth is the
colleges have allowed a condition tc
grow up that they will find hard tx
remedy.

SMILE

This is the little word that really
makes the world go round. If you
don't smile and be happy, what will
become of you? You know the old
saying, "Smile, and the world smiles
with you-weep, and you weep alone"
Many a man feeling down-hearted and
grouchy has done deeds that it is now
impossible for him to amend Don't
be grouchy-it doesn't pay. Just
smile; a word of five letters, but in
our estimation one of the most pop
ular words in the English language.
We don't mean that this word is used
more than the average in writing or
reading, but in expression.
Out of the many millions of human
beings in this great big world of ours,
we doubt if there is a thousand who
don't smile at least once a day. Are
you one of that small minority who
refuse to smile? If you are, you're
fighting losing battle and you'll
wake up some morning to find that
you have not only lost all your friends,
but also your health. A smiling man
is always hght-hearted and free from
care and worry.
You may say to yourself, now that
things look so dull--"A good chance
| have of smiling and looking happy
when Pm only working three ano
four days week; it's an impossible
ity" This is true; but why worry
and get down-hearted about it? II
doesn't do any good, but on the other
hand, makes things worse. Business
has got to pick up before long. This
present business depression cannot
go on much longer, so why not smile
and bear it as best you can, even if
it does require little exertion, and
you will find yourself better socially
physically and mentally. And wher
business does boom again, the man
