Life of Milwaukee
Candy Workers Is
Not Very Sweet
BY a Worker Correspondent.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Aug. 1.-THE
life of the candy workers of Milwau-
kee is not as sweet as it may seem.
In the Albros Chocolate Co. on 9Th
street, they work nine hours a day
and receive only 3S cents an hour.
Young boys Is years of age are doing
heavy work lifting sacks of sugar
and other goods weighing between 100
and 275 pounds. Most of the workers
are Italian and they are unorganized.
There are many girls and women en-
ployed in this factory. There are
many school girls working four days
week and receiving $7.75 for their
four days. They are loading heavy
boxes of chocolate. This work should
be done by men and not by school
girls.
At the Films Chocolate Co. on
Washington Rd, the men earn be-
tween 40 to AIN cents an hour. BY
working hard nine hours a day they
earn between $40 to $25 a week. There
are many girls and women working
here. They earn between 80 to SO
cents an hour. At the end of the
week they have between $14 to $500
This is not enuf to live on. The cost
of living is high and the workers in
these sweet shops are constantly
worrying how to make ends meet.

Fharlie is sixteen. He goes to high

is tailor. 1t is very hard for him
to make living for family of eight.
AS soon as vacation time came
around and school was let out Charlie
started to look for a job. 1t took him
about week until he found a Job at
the Curtis Baby Ruth Candy Com
pany.
He had to work nine and quarter
hours on week days and four and
quarter on Saturdays. If a worker re-
fuses to work overtime he is fired, If
he says something the foreman does
not like he is in danger of losing his
job.
After working for the company
few weeks one Friday Charlie had
a headache. He was not strong enough
to stand the abuse of the foreman.
When the foreman came up to Charlie
and began to abuse him, telling him
that he works too slow, doesn't do his
work right, Charlie could no longer
remain silent. He told the foreman
that he bothers him without cause and
that his work had been done right. 7
Shortly after Charlie was called into
the Office. He was handed check
and told that he was no longer needed
AS Charlie went out of the Office he
asked the foreman why he was fred
The foreman showed Charlie a sign
on the wall. On this sign were the
rules of the factory. He pointed out
the line that said Every Worker Must
Obey the Foreman"
Alright" says Charlie, put me
back to work and I'll do as you tell
SINE to-
"Oh, no." replied the foreman, with
scorn. "If you can speak to fresh to
a foreman, you'll never be any good. :"
Charlie left the office with tears in
his eyes and with a deep, deep hatred
for fOremen and bosses.

Productive Societies.

tai. The profits of the enterprise,
otherwise appropriated by the employ
or, go to swell the wages of the work
ers, by means Of bonuses, etc.. This
kind of cooperation has had a very
limited success. 1t is easy to see that
productive cooperation can only be
carried on successfully in those indus
tries which employ small numbers Of
workers, where a small amount of
starting capital only is required for
tools, machinery and materials, and
where the commodities are destined
mainly for local markets. In these
days Of trusts, combines, and cartels,
these conditions are vigorously cur
tailed. Again, the limited success of
a number of such ventures, as in boot
and shoe manufacture, is only possible
by the fact that the market for the
goods is through the channels of con-
summers societies.

Sen, BORAH HAS
TALK With HEAD
OF BOTANY Mill
Johnson Refuses to Meet
with Strike Leaders
BY LAURENCE TODD,
Federated Press.

Federated Press.
WASHINGTON, Aug. l. Up
Col. Chas. F. H. Johnson, vice-presi-
dent and manager Of the Botany
Worsted Mills in Passaic where was
enforced the wage cut that led to the
present textile strike, had a confer
ence July q with Sen. Borah.
Johnsons own statement to news
paper correspondents was defiant. He
said that the mill owners would never
deal with Albert Weisbord and the
United Front Committee, which organ
lied the strike and has led it for more
than six months. Ignoring the fact
that there is ne other organization
among the strikers, Johnson insisted
that the United Front Committee was
made up of Communists, and that as
a good American he could not meet
any such group to discuss a settle
ment. s.t
What Borah replied to Johnson's ar.
guments in their private conference
was not revealed, But Borah made it
plain afterward that hope of settle
ment turned upon the possibility Of
creating a committee with which the
bosses would deal He said he had
talked with Secretary Morrison of the
American Federation of Labor, and
was impressed with the importance of
a conference to be held in Passaic be-
tween the United Front Committee
and a group of officials of A. F. of L.
organizations.
1t appears that Johnson did not
promise Borah that he would meet a
committee of the strikers if they
should decide to elect a new one.
Johnson did not say that, if the A. F.
of L. took charge, he would enter into
negotiations for a settlement He
merely refused to meet the existing
committee, claiming that they were
Communists.
Borah Hopeful.
Nevertheless Borah takes a hopeful
tone, believing that progress has been
made toward a discussion of terms.
Weisbord's action in volunteering to
withdraw whenever any substitute
leadership of the strike shall be pro-
vided, has impressed him. His talk
with Secretary Morrison also led him
to believe that the A. F. of L. might
decide to cooperate. He knows that
any formal action must be taken by
he United Textile Workers of Amer
lea, but he also knows that the U. T.
w. A. will not long resist the executive
council of the A. F. of L. if the coun-
ell determines that these Passaic
strikers must be taken into the regular
movement. $50.
Borah's Argument.
An incidental, if silent, argument
against any refusal by Col. Johnson to
deal with a non-radical committee of
the strikers is found in the fact that
Borah is chairman of senate COM
mittee which is to investigate the
Alien Property Custodian's handling of
seized alien property. The Botany
Worsted Mills went throu the hands
of the Alien Property Custodian, and
Johnson holds his present job because
of the favor of the custodian at the
time of the war. He may become an
important witness when Borah's com
mittee gets under way, in November.
