A Word With
the Old Folks

Elderly PeopleAre Learning importance
of Good Elimination.
TN the later years of life there is
l. apt to be a slowing up of the
bodily functions. Good elimination,
however, is just as essential to the
old as to the young. Many old folks
have learned the value of Doan's
Pills when a stimulant diuretic to
the kidneys is required. Scanty or
burning passages of kidney secre-
tions are often signs ofimproper kid
ney function. In most every COM
munity are scores of users and en-
dorsers vino acclaim the merit of
Doan's. Ask your neiehbor!

but, as a matter of fact, America,
like every other industrial community,
offers confusing variety of conflict
ing opinions.
This is strongly brought out in
report published from the pen of Mr..
H. B. Butler The United States are
united by little except a sentiment.
They present such a wide range of
labor legislation, and industrial con-
ditions and outlooks differ so greatly
from state to state, and indeed within
states, that no one may use American
examples to support anything from
the profoundest reaction to the most
advanced experiment in capitalist or
ganization and methods.
For example, in this land of high
wages and Ford cars, we also come
up against degrading paternalism
closely allied with chattel slavery"

HIGH WAGES
Traced to Unions; All Prob
ers Accept This Fact

London, England-The net result of
numerous Investigations of high wages
paid in the United States leads the
London Daily Herald to observe:
"The one central fact that emerges
from the contradictions is that for
real Improvement the workers must
rely upon developing their own or
ganization and power. The British
Government Mission last autumn
pointed out not merely that where
high wages prevailed this policy
paid but that the high wages were
paid in those trades where high de-
gree of trade union organization eX-
listed, a point indorsed by Mr.. Butler
deputy director of the International
Labor Office)
Moreover" continues the Daily
Herald, while American production
and wealth have increased, multitudes
of adult wage earners receive less
than "a week ($16), which is
estimated to be the minimum of sub
sistence level in the cities and larger
towns. And vast numbers of children
of tender age work long hours at alb
normally low wages"

might be supposed America can pre-
sent clear-cut lessons to investigators,

Of 81 Master Craftsmen is

New York City-The union me-
chanics who have won recognition for
superior workmanship on New York
City buildings now number 371, the
total representing those holding cer-
tificates and gold buttons awarded by
the New York Building Congress in
two and a half years. No awards were
made unless the craftsmanship dis
played was above the ordinary. No
more than one man in a trade was
able to win an honor on any building,
otherwise many more would have been
listed as master craftsmen"
The awards are made by the con-
gress which represents architects,
builders, sub-contractors and the
unions engaged in the industry. Near
ly all of the work that has won recog-
milton is in the construction of million
dollar structures in the heart of the
city.
John j. Collins, secretary treasurer
of the Tunnel and Subway Construc-
tors international Union, expressed
labor's support of the craftsmanship
ideal as follows:
Labor heartily joins in doing its
share to encourage better workman
ship. 1t sees a great value to all con-

ing industry alone could not bring
