Necessary Details Will Be
Arranged at a Later
Date

Detroit, Mich.-The A. F. of
L. Metal Trades Department
voted unanimously to affiliate
with the international Metal
Workers Federation.
The matter was placed in the hands
of the departments executive council
with power to arrange details, includ-
ing per capita tax and the safeguard
ing of autonomy of the American
trade unions.
The department convention took
this action following speeches by a
delegation representing the interna-
tional federation. The delegation
consists of Secretary Treasurer Con-
rad Ilg of Switzerland, j. T. Brown
lie of England, Robert Dissman of
Germany and Henry Labe of France.
The visitors called attention to the
growing unity Of international cap
italists, and to the recent formation
of an European iron and steel trust.
They said that American capital 60
ing to Europe is being used to bring
about the high speed production sys-
TENS of the United States and that
with the unification of world capital
lists, trade unionists in America should
not be over-confident that attacks on
them are out of the question.

CANADA
Harvest Hand Shortage-The acute
shortage of harvesters is due to the
improved employment conditions in
the East, which have made the avail
able number of men for harvesting
very small. In order to attract men
to the harvest fields, the border be-
tween Canada and the United States
was thrown open and it was anticipat-
ed that large numbers of workers
would come north to assist in the
Canadian harvest. Low railway rates
of one cent per mile were offered to
those coming from the United States,
and excursions have likewise been
run from eastern Canada to the west
ern provinces.
Unemployment the month
of August, 1926, unemployment in
British Columbia was at the lowest

anti-unionist, who would now control
the workers mind.
This silent educational process has
replaced the militia, the clubber and
the injunction judge. Books without
number are being written on the new
system and it's value to anti-union
employers who are striving to have
employees acquire their economic view
point.
Behind the assumed candor and
simplicity Of latter-day Pecksniffs
looms the fact that employees are de-
MED the right to select their own rep
resentatives. They must bargain
with spokesmen the employer ap-
proves.
There is but one answer to this
policy. Eventually, tradition must
yield, as it has before. But that time
will not automatically come, no more
than did the eight-hour day, free
school books, compensation statutes,
safety laws, passing of the company
store and a nationwide opposition tc
child labor.
Regardless of its disguise, reaction
must surrender its control of work
ers' lives. This control is backed by
the most ancient traditions. The
lines of this hoary concept must be
broken along it's entire front. The
trade unions have won many positions
in this long struggle to establish new
viewpoints. 1t must continue to dc
so.
Tradition will yield to experience in
proportion to the education and agi-
tation of unions.

Organized Labor
Destroys All
Past Tradition
Education Is Replacing the In
junction Judge and
the Militia

Organized labor is standing
challenge to tradition. AS broom,
it sweeps aside the cobwebs of an
tiquity and points the road to I'M
proved social, economic and political
methods. 1t can not too often be re-
peated that organized workers have
led in every forward movement.
The eight-hour day, for instance, is
now accepted. Not a single person of
standing in America will deny it's
value. It seems but yesterday, how
ever, that those who first urged this
cause were jailed, enjoined and de-
nounced.
Every other advance has the same
record of blind opposition by the de-
tenders of standpatism.
Proposals whose value were self
evident at the time were opposed be-
cause it was not-and is not today
considered "safe" to encourage work
ers by conceding their demands.
Workers should receive, but never
take, says tradition. Under this sys-
tenn workers should consider them
selves inferior. They must not ac-
quire an Independent mental attitude
. that should distinguish every Amerl-
can citizen.
Let no worker delude himself that
tradition has profited by experience
and that the right of labor to bargain
collectively-to stand as men-has
been conceded.
The company "union" is standpat-
ism's latest effort to continue the
serf ideal.
Crude antagonisms of yesterday
have been replaced by scientifically
devised methods. With the company
"union," these include welfare plans.
stock selling, "free" insurance and
lessons on economics that uphold the
anti-union employer.
