All unions have official organs, while some
operate daily newspapers.
All the educational work is supported from
two sources-the funds supplied by the gov
eminent trusts and economic institutions I'M
der the collective agreement, and special
funds built up by the unions out of a part of
the income from members dues.
One trade union leader expressed the atti-
tude of the unions toward cultural-educational
work when he said, eve plan to be with the
workers every hour of the twenty-four. AT
work, at play, at home, in the club, the union
seeks to penetrate and influence the life of
the workers."
The cultural work of the unions is one of
he most impressive achievements of the new
Russia. There is no precedent or parallel for
it anywhere in the world today.

CuItural-EducationaI Work.

We asked Tomsky, the president of the C.
c. T. u, what was the most important
achievement Of the unions during the last few
years. His answer was:
"The most notable development in the Rus
sian trade union movement is the tremendous
progress of cultural activities. Through these
activities great masses Of the working class
are aided in their cultural Development Tens
of thousands are being prepared for partici-
patton in the government as we'll as in econ
omic and trade union life. They are brought
nearer to the realities of life, and that is the
most important factor. Such "a development
exists nowhere else. No union abroad is doing
a tenth of what we are doing in that direc-
ton"
After examining the Standardization
work of the trade unions we are inclined to
agree with Tomsky. From the bottom to the
top of the union apparatus the cultural-edu-
cational work is interviewer. The union lead
ers insist that it is incorrect to think of work
ers' education as a separate departmentalized
affair They contend that every branch of
union work is educational, and that every sac
tive in the union is really an educational
worker, so that through all the departments
of the union runs the educational function

thing apart from the union to be patronized
and supported like an outside agency In
stead it is VITAL organic part Of the work
of every department of the organization.
Without going into the details of the var
ious methods used by the unions to give their
workers political, trade union and technical
education (the three categories into which
the unions divide their teaching activities)
we may summarize some of the services and
facilities enjoyed by the average union mem

PARIS, Oct 25.-Altho negotiations
nave been opened with Riff chiefs for
the ransom of the two nephews of
Theodore Steeg, French governor-gen-

circles here to be doubtful if the ma

1t is suggested here that the Moores

Total Wage Increase Per Hour.

THE salient fact thus energies that the
J. Russian industrial workers are receiving
approximately IS per cent more commodities
and services with at least Is per cent short
err working week This means that for each
hour of working time they are obtaining APP
proximately 80 per cent more purchasing
power than before 1t is therefore not an
exaggeration to state that in no country since
the world war have the industrial wage earn
ers made the relative progress which has re
Gently been made in Russia. The workers are
better fed than before the revolution and are
buying new articles of clothing and other
commodities which they formerly did not pur-
chase. Departments Of the government and
of the trade unions take great pains to dis
seminate information concerning the values
Of recreation and out-of- door life. Every in
dustrial center of any size has summer parks
and out-of-door clubs, which, from all obser-
vation workers are enjoying to the full.
To the above conclusions, which are based
on what we believe to be authoritative fig
ures, certain qualifications not susceptible tc
statistical measurement, are in order. First.
the quality of the current industrial output.
textiles shoes, etc., is on the whole, poor, and
universally agreed to be below the pre-wa1
level Second we should not lose sight of the
fact that to date, in those facilities which the
workers use-old houses, parks, streets, rest
homes, sanatoria-total depreciation may moi
yet be covered by the aggregate OUTLAWS fol
new construction and repairs.
In so far as this be true, it acts as an offset
to computed increase in real wages. Also
relatively high wages ought not to be con.
fused with a high standard of living for the
whole people Unemployment is seriously
prevalent; high wages for one individual may
still leave the family in difficult circum-
stances.

has meant more than proportionate increase
in the amount of leisure available for the

Excess RoOfage

The gay Parisians of Francois
Villon's time must have believed
in Santa Claus, because they
made their roofs conveniently
overlapping and any portly gen.
tleman with white whiskers who
wished to run across the house
tops had little difficulty. In John
Barrymore's new picture, "The
Beloved Rogue" now playing at
Loew's Columbia, the famous
actor rushes across these snow
capped roofs thumbing his finger
at authorities, Fastening to his
mothers house, breaking into his
sweetheart's chamber and, when
ever threatened with arrest, con-
cealing himself among the Chin
neys and sheltering ewes.
