eyes Russia IS engaging in a philosophical and political economic spree which is foredoomed td failure.
 There is, too, decided contrast between the methods of religious control adopted by the Boshevists and later by the Soviet. As the Boshevlk political structure was woefully weak, its attitude toward religion was rated equally absurd The Red leaders were in favor of lift- ing the church bodily from Russia, much after the fashion of growth cut away by a surgeon.
 They did not seem to know the meaning of compromise or subtlety, and this hgh-handed policy defeated it's ends before it was we'll started. For it gave the people focal point for their hatred. "cause" without which no mass movement can be accomplished
 The Soviet attitude has been entirely differ. ent. Ostensibly the Soviet aims at divorcine the church and the State. This principle is car ried further in Russia today than in France, England or any other of the leading powers
 Also the Soviet authorities realized the dan. ger of the religious question when they wers coming into power. and examination of current Russian history will show that there was less damage to church property and fewer atrocities during the Soviet regime than marked any of the great world revolutions. This again, was estimated as new evidence of the capability of Soviet leaders.

But, getting back to the beginning
Labor does not oppose ths introduc-
tion or use of machinery. The more
the better. Nobody objects to plen-
titude of commodities.
But commodities which cannot be
had are of little interest, and if the
workman does not go wild in cheer
ing for machinery which, for the time
being, cheats him out of his income
who can blame him overly much?
Labor is for machinery. 1t is
not for machinery for the sake of
bigger profits for the financiers,
however. 1t is for machinery
which makes life easier and bet
ter for the masses.
That is as clear as daylight, but
of course, lot of pious persons have
not yet seen daylight in dealing with
these things.

INDIANA
Mine Owners AdOpt N..w
Policy

indianapolis, Ind, Il. l.. N. S.
Members of the Indiana BituIninous
Coal Operators Association, in a
meeting, adopted new policy regard
ing negotiations of wage contracts
In the past, since 1900. all wage
agreements have been made with the
union by the association as a whole
Under the new plan no further me-
gotiations will be made as an organ
ization but individual operators will
be permitted to agree to any wage
scale he may be able to obtain. with
out prejudice to membership in ne
organization. The charge was marie
on the basis that such mines as may
feel they can operate profitably nay
do SO while others will remain closed

the Operators Association, said.

WORKERS ASKED
TO AID OLD-AGE
PENSION QUERY

Westinghouse Green has
forwarded QUESTIONABLE to A. F
of l.. affiliates to aid the executive
council in its study of old-age pen
sions, ordered by the last convention
eve all realize how serious are the
problems of men and women who have
spent lifetime in honorable toll and
who face old age without income" "
said President Green. "Some provi-
sion, quite aside from charity, should
be made, that old age may be relieved
of this stigma. 1t is important that
labor take constructive part in help
ing to formulate policies in this field.
To this end hope for your co-opera-
tion in securing the information indi-
Gated in the questionnaire."
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1928-04-20

What should properly be said is
that mechanical production is being
so perfected that much displacement
of workers results, which means much
unemployment and much shifting
around.
Machinery is producing more than
hand labor ever did or could produce
and it is producing many things that
hand labor never did or could pro-
duce.
We are perfecting mechanical
civilization and very frequently the
welfare of human workers is the last
thing considered.
Meanwhile a lot of dodos and a lot
of politicians say nice things about
machinery and unemployment, spread
ing lot of verbal gravy over the
landscape, all of which is intended
to be and largely is soporifc, because
so many persons find it easier to let
someone else do their thinking for
them while they feast their eyes on
the nonsense of the evening tabloid.
No one need expect much to be done
about unemployment, now or next
year, for good reasons.
Politicians know how to do very
little, employers can do very little
without interfering with profits and
workers themselves are not in control
of the agencies through which things
might be done.
Politicians, driven by political con-
siderations, talk much, saying sooth-
ing things, thus occupying the time
between crisis and let-up. When en-
ployment improves there is no need
to do anything and so the politicians
get out of it. All is lovely, quite
naturally.
Enough employers say things that
sound liberal to take the curse away
from those that are absolutely hard
boiled, and so, they too, escape re-
sponsibility.

unprecedented in Mexico during the
last 30 years. Thirty miners lost
their lives in this disaster, 80 workers

sion of operations is to be expected.

So .c,:ch has been said about the

alton of unemployment that some Of
tnose who speak twice before they

labor is opposed to what is known as
labor-saving machinery.
That, of course, is the bunk.
Let us set down two things as

l. Labor y vi opposed to So

2. Modern. e iachinery is
not properly Jed when it is
called labor-sav.ng machinery.
Labor is in favor of 81 productive
machinery, but it is at ti.e game time
emphatic in its demand that all of the
pain of readjustment be not visited
upon the toilers.
The average employer grabs fol
the machinery because it increase:
profits and he is too short sighted te
care rap what happens to the mer
~ -fe displaced and who must fine

1t Is not Proper to use the tern
"labor-saving machinery" for pur
