Trade Unions
Help Members
In Every Way
NOn-UniOn Workers Can Offer
No Valid Reasons For
Being Such

No man who works for wages can
advance single logical reason why
he should not belong to the union of
the craft he follows for a Ilying. The
trade union movement has so elevated
and improved the position of wage
earners in this and every other coun-
try where it is recognized economic
force, that the wonder is that any
workers can now be found who are
not willing and anxious to take an
active part in it. In the minds of
many working people there doubtless
fingers a conviction that the improve
ments which have been wrought for
them by the labor movement have
come as a matter of course-as the
result of natural and preordained
evolutionary process, These people
take purely superficial view of the
workingman's progress toward better
conditions. They do not think deeply
enough to comprehend the struggle
that has been waged, and the sacrl-
fices that have been made, in order
that the toilers' right to organize
might be established. Organization
has been the basis of every economic
advantage won by working people; it
has been the compelling force in re-
moving the injustices existing in in
dustry and in government. Had there
been no labor movement, founded up
on organization, we would not today
have our workshop-inspection laws;
our laws compelling the installation
of devices for safeguarding the lives
and limbs of workers; our laws for
the protection of women and children
in industry; our workmen's compen-
sation laws, and other salutary pro-
visions for. taking the taint of slav-

the part of the open-shop element, to
circumvent the Influence of the labor
movement, have resulted in the inven-
ton of various devices, as company
unions, welfare plans, and stock
sharing schemes that make the work
ers ostensible partners in the busi-
ness; all of which are designed for
the single purpose of Turing working
people away from their trade union
affiliations. Many who have been
inveigled by these articles are COM
ing more and more to realize the true
significance of it all. They are slow
ly finding out that, while falling in
with these schemes and aiding their
employers to reap exorbitant profits,
they themselves have been gnawing
rather bare bone. They are grad
ually learning the advantages of in
dependent organization by people who
work for a living. Every benefit
which the toiler now enjoys in his
striving for living has come through
organization. The future of the
working masses, whether that future
shall be bright or dull, depends upon
the degree to which organization is
pushed. - International Steam En-

commerce. The workers have made
labor organizations constituent ele-
ment in the organization of produc-
tion and therefor a part of organized
society. Labor organizations are
channels for the expression of the de-
sires and purposes of the wage-earn-
ers. They are the instrumentalities
for making effective their demands
for justice and for better life in all
its relations. That labor organiza-
tions are vitally associated with the
lives of the workers increases their
power and Importance. The wage
earneEs are a constituent element in
the nation, numerically strong and
creatively essential. Therefore, a ma
tional policy, whether industrial or
political, that does not take into ac-
count the welfare of the wage-earn-
ers will fall short. of concepts of
broadest craftsmanship. Not only
must the wage earners be considered
in determining policies but in the
council that determines policies they
must be given representation and
voice equal to their Importance in ma
tional life. The wage-earners will no
longer be denied their right to par
ticipation in determining those things
which affect their welfare. Their de-
mand is in accord with the principles
upon which our republic is founded.
They are unwilling to delegate to
others the determination of their
lives.

WHAT HENRY FORD MEANS

of product, and the employer is worse
off than ever because his accumulat-
ed excess is virtually at standstill.
He can't sell it because the con-
sumers who are laid off have nothing
with which to buy.
This condition spreads and is then
called a panic. Everything is upset.
Instead of cutting wages or laying
men off under such circumstances
Henry Ford would reduce the price of
the accumulating product and raise
the wages of the workers.
Prestol The situation is reversed.
The producers-ca buy
more because they are getting more
pay-a larger share of that which
they produce-and also because the
cost of the article has at the same
time been reduced.
The result is that the accumulated
excess of goods will rapidly be reduc-
ed because the consuming power of
the great mass has been increased.
The monkey wrench will have been
removed from the machinery, and all
will run smoothly.
The employer will make more mon
ey, altho making a smaller profit per
article, because his goods will move
faster. His turnover will be more
rapid, his interest charges smaller
and his working capital more mobile
That's what Henry Ford MEANS

"Cut the price of everything but
labor and increase that"
s That is the latest economic edict of
Henry Ford.
He followed it almost instantly
with cut in the price of his product.
His next step doubtless will be to
aise wages.
But what does Henry Ford mean
in his formula of his to prevent panics
and industrial depression?
Just this as an example,:
Under the system it is necessary
that the worker get in wages only a
part of hte value of the product of
his toll. The balance goes to the
employer who makes his net profit on
the worker after all overhead is met.
For instance: The worker gets SIS
day. He has produced in market
able product $40 worth. The worker
can buy back bat S. worth the amount
of his wages.
There is therefore an accumulated
excess which gradually piles up. This
has been called reproduction" by
he fianciers.
In fact it is under consumption.
No manufacturer can afford to keep
on piling up uIsold products. So he
shuts down his plant until such time
as he can dispose of the accumulated
goods. That throws men out of work.
They then have nothing with which

Every Woman
Wage Garner
Should Join
Union Is Necessary to Main
tain and Secure Justice in
Industrial Relations

The American Federation of Labor
holds that any person gainfully en-
ployed in industry whether man or
woman, owes it to himself and his
fellow workers to belong to the union
of his trade or calling.
The union is necessary to maintain
representative strength for wage
earners that must underlie order and
justice in industrial relations. Eco
nomie principles apply to women as
well as men wage earners and affect
the interests of women whether en-
ployed in industry, in an enterprise
indirectly dependent on industrial con-
ditions, or married to a wage Garner.
At different times in the past, the
Federation has conducted special cas
paigns to organize women wage ca IL
ers in an effort to bring the percent
age of organization for women up to
a level of that prevailing among men.
The percentage is still very low. This
fact together with the steadily in
creasing number of women employed
in an increasingly larger variety of
work, has developed a difficult prob
lem-American Federationist.

A Dominating Fact

In the affairs of this country there
stands out one dominating fact-the
existence and the power of organiza-
ton of wage earners. Long ignored,
prosecuted and outlawed, these or
ganizations have proved themselves
an essential constructive factor in hu-
man affairs. They constitute the do
main of voluntary service, voluntary
activity and voluntary institutions for
the protection and%he betterment of
human beings engaged in industry or
