Field of Transportation.
While the building trades lead in
the number of pending industrial dis
putes today, it is noticeable OF the
general industrial peace that prevails
that conditions in the field of trans
prtation are particularly encouraging
for the next year. For once, at least,
it was declared at the offices of the
newly created Board of Railway
Mediation, there is an entire absence
of strikes on any of the great railway
lines that were engaged in a general
strike a few years ago.
With employment general and
wages on a gradual upward scale, Sec
rotary of Labor Davis feels that all Is
well among the rank and file of or.
ganized labor. But in discussing con-
ditions as Labor day finds them in
1927, Secretary Davis points out that
it is a national duty to improve the
lot of some 10000, 900 working people
and their dependents who have not
been benefited by the higher wage so
generally enjoyed by organized labor.
President Coolidge is cogniZant of
this fact" said Secretary Davis. In
a recent message to Congress he said:
In the industries the condition of the
wage-earner has steadily improved.
The 12-hour day is almost entirely
unknown. Skilled labor is well COM
pensated. But there are, unfortu-
nately, multitude of workers who
have not yet come to share in the gen.
eral prosperity of the Nation. Both
the public authorities and private en-.
terprises should be solicitous to ad-
vance the welfare of this class
II trust that American ingenuity
will correct this condition in it's usual
prompt manner" added Secretary
Davis There is strong reason why
it should. There must be at least
10 900 900 OF these lesser-paid workers
and their families and dependents,
and they should be a larger economic
factor than they are at present. But
they will not be able to buy more until
they can buy more than the bare
necessities of life"
With the realization of one who has
risen above work at his trade in the
iron and steel mills, Secretary Davis
declared that 1.-The consideration which
we give the worker in America is one
reason why every worker on this
Labor day should be proud of being
an American.
Let us look forward to the better
economic days, when Americans, with
full sense of realization of the advan.
tages of the home market, determine
that all workers shall have a living
wage, and even more. When they
have reached this sense of under
standing, most, if not all, of our eco.
nomic problems will be well on the
way to final settlement"
