METHODISTS COOL
To Social Service Report
Proposals

Chicago U. L. N. S.)-Following
warm debate, the Rock River confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, in session at the Morgan
Park Methodist Church, condemned
the report of the social service COM
mittee as too socialistic. On motion
of DR.. f. F. Title, chairman, who de-
clared that he had nothing to do with
the report, it was referred back to
the committee to be brought up again
later.
Meeting with particular criticism
was a clause on industrial warfare,
| which stated: "The past year has been
marked by bitter industrial warfare,
Does not an age which prides itself
on prosperity betray it cupidity. by
seeking to beat down the standard OF
living for the working people ?",
More criticism was aroused by the
| last section Of the report which
asked that employees of the Methodist
Book Concern become members of the
international Typographical Union
| The Rev. w. E. Gross assertion that
| he did not believe the conference had
right to limit the right of man to
work unless he joined the union or to
dictate to a man what his reason tells
him to do brought approval from con.
| ference members.
| A third debate centered on charges
of oppression of strikers at the textile
mills of New Bedford, Mass, and il
the coal fields of Colorado and west
ern Pennsylvania.
"This condition is an illustration,
said the committees report, "that the
present industrial order is obsolete
inadequate and contrary to the prin
ciples of Christianity"
One of the many who objected tt
this section was the Rev. M. j. Mum
ford, who declared that he wanted "a
social doctrine and religion, not so
cialistic revision"
Among the portions of the repor
that met with approval was the re
commentator that federal aid b.
given to agriculture, that the power O.
the courts to issue labor injunction!
be limited, and that the federal chilt
labor amendment be passed. Intro
duction of a fve-day week and exten
sion of unemployment insurance were
also approved. Use of blacklists b!
patriotic societies and alleged police
violence in the Colorado and Pennsyl
vania mine area were condemned.

"For instance" said Mussolini,
"any one can say that as player of
violin l am very mediocre anna
teur."
This guarantee of liberty in non
essentials is favorite trick in the
United States.
Workers are often trapped by the
assurance that their unions should be
upheld-as long as they confine their
activities to paying sick and death
benefits.
But let one of these unions attempt
to function; let them challenge au-
tocracy in industry and the Ameri-
can Mussolinis and the Italian dicta-
tor are one.
1t is not liberty to say man may
do a thing no one objects to.
Constitutions are not written fol
the majority. They are intended to
protect the minority.

Group insurance has come to be a

LONC-HOUR
System Recalled By Court
In Compensation Case

lew York.-The short work day
of organized teamsters and the long
hour system of unorganized team
sters is recalled by court of ap-
peals decision in which compensa-
tion award by the state industrial
board was upheld in the case of a
teamster who was killed while asleep
because of exhaustion thruogh long
hours.
The decision has just been published
by the state department of labor.
The teamster took nap while
crossing the Hudson river ma ferry
boat. He failed to awake and when
a deck hand attempted to arouse him
his team ran off the boat and he was
killed. His widow and step-child were
awarded damages, but this was con-
tested on the ground that when he
fell asleep he lasped from his duty.
The evidence showed that the team
ster had no regular hours of employ
ment. Sometimes he would arise at
and 4 o'clock in the morning and it
was 10 and IL o'clock at night before
he completed his work.
The employer testified he didn't OBJ
ject to the teamster sleeping "as long
as the man turned out his work"
The court of appeals, in sustaining
the award, held that the driver die
not have to be actively employed tc
be in line of duty, that possibly he
had not expected to fall asleep anc
horses, even disobedience of orders
was mot equivalent to abandonment
of his employment"
