WAGES AND LIFE

No loyal citizen in any civilized
community will sympathize with the
hard-fsted employer who tries to
stiie his workers by maintaining
them below what is recognized as
living wage A working mans
weekly pay envelope is something
more than mere dollars and cents. 1t
represents the standards Of living
made possible through the results of
his honest endeavors; it is the factor
which determines what measure of
decency, of comfort and of opportun-
ity the wage Garner will enjoy in this
life. The amount of the wage die
tates whether the home shall be an
insanitary back room in a congested
poverty-stricken district or cozy
cottage, surrounded by pure air and
SullSIliIie anu conducive 10 NealCn ana
comforts.
The dollars and cents which find
their way into the weekly pay en-
velope determine the quality and
quantity of the nourishing food which
shall enter the workers home. They
influence the conveniences and oppor-
tunities which the wage earner's fam
| lily can enjoy. They determine the
wage earner's standard of living and
whether his body shall be vigorous
or weak and underfed. The employer
who can not see this for himself US
| ually suffers the consequence. Ex-
perience will teach him that he gets
the best from his employees only by
giving them the best that is in his
power to give.

another wave of exploitation Of child
labor as factories and mills are NOV
ing South, where there has been few
and scanty protection measures for
the protection of children.
The governor of one southern state
told delegation of women that 1t
would be useless for them to try to
get through Legislative measures for
protection of women and children in
industry, as he would veto any such
measure. Brutally he admitted that
his reasons were economic. He want
ed to encourage cotton mills in his
state. Thus capitalists who have
been forced into recognizing the
rights of children and women in some
northern states will now proceed with
exploitation, overwork, underpay, un-
protected machinery and neglected
sanitary conditions.
The governors confession covers
the situation. Profit is the god and
the only god some capitalists wor-
ship.

east and west schedules. 1t makes
for cheapening and quickening trans
portation and for greater efficiency.
The new tunnel, big electricfication
projects recently announced, hook-ups
with airplane lines and increased eff
cheney in operations shows that the
railroads are alive to the necessity Of
maintaining and increasing efficiency
to meet the competition of the auto
mobile, airplane and other means of
transportation and travel.
The iron horse may be limping q
bit, but it is far from being beaten
in the race for transportation busi-
ness, ]. B. Campbell, of the inter
state commerce commission, said in
speaking at the dedication of the Cas-
cade tunnel The great army Of rail-
road workers will not see their jobs
vanish in the near future, as some
have feared, if the railroads continue
their efforts for greater efficiency and
usefulness. However, inroads by bus
and truck lines have shown that the
railroads are facing real foes, whose
strength it would be folly to belittle
or underestimate.

MONEY UEBER ALLIES

Well, we'll, if that don't beat all
Into New York harbor steamed a
magnificent yacht labelled "Vaga-
bondia"
Vagabond is the long for vag. A
vag is sort of Weary Willie and
the vag who owns the Vagabondia is
no other than w. L. Mellon, brother
of Andy Aluminium Mellon, the great
est secretary of the treasury since
Alexander Hamilton.
But wait, the worst is yet to come.
Where do you think the Vagabondia
hailed from? Now, don't faint: it
was made in Germany! And worse
still, it was turned out by Krupp, the
bosom buddy of ex-Kaiser Wilhelm.
Now, isn't Brother Mellon one of
the patron saints of the republican
party? Just so, just so. And isn't
protection for American industry the
cardinal dogma of the republican
party? 1t am!
Well, then, why didn't Brother Mel
lon buy his yacht from an American
shipbuilder and thusly patronize one
of the most infantile of our infant
industries?
The answer, my brethren, is that
while Brother Mellon loves the repub-
lican party and protection and Amer
lea, he loves money "ueber allies. y
And so he bought yacht in Deutsch-
land where money, being scarce, goes
long ways.
But next time you buy an alumni
mum teapot, don't buy it from the
Teutons. Buy it from Mellon. Thus
you will protect the American stand
ard of living, as enjoyed by the coal
miners of Pennsylvania and other
employees of the Mellon interests
against the pauper labor of "Urip."

Censorship bursts forth once more
with its usual pathological squawk-
ing. But it moves toward its finish
and every outbreak brings this an
cient scourge Of the race one more
step toward oblivion. Not forever

recreations and our more serious pur-
suits Of knowledge.
Pennsylvania is anon 9Th ecensored

ing pictures came a new issue was
presented. The movie censors may
not censor the spoken stage, but they
attempted to censor the spoken
movies. In movies talk cannot be cut
without also cutting out pictures and
pictures may not be cut out without
killing the accompanying dialogue.
The censors sought to cut out the
pictures as usual. but the movies
fought back on new ground when they
resisted the obliterating Of conver-
sation.
1t may be that talking pictures have
brought an end to censorship that is
vicious because all censorship is
vicious. If so, then these jabbering
films may have worked better than
their makers knew; they may have

CHILD LABOR

There are thirty-six states of this
glorious union that permit boys and
girls under twelve years of age to
engage in productive employment.
There are thirty-three million chill
dren under the age of fourteen years.
Only twenty-five states have any laws
regulating the employment of these
children. In all other states they can,
and do, compete with their fathers,
and older brothers and sisters.
In other words, child labor, instead
of being intelligently curbed is being
encouraged in this enlightened land.
Sad as it is there is likelihood of

PRIVILEGE TO CONTROL AIR.


Opposition to organized labor's re-
quest for an unlimited wave length
for station VIGIL, owned and operat-
ed by the Chicago Federation of La
Dor, shows how public opinion is
stealthily controlled.
Station VIGIL has a limited wave
length 1t can operate only in the
day time when wage workers and
farmers are employed.
There are 80 unlimited wave
lengths. These are divided among
corporations and other interests that
ignore vital social issues and would
keep the people ignorant of great So
cial changes and of happenings "be-
hind the scenes"
Citizens are unaware of these hap
penings because the avenues of infor-
nation are controlled by those who
profit by the status quo.
Organized labor asks the federal
radio commission to allot one unlimit-
ed wave length to the millions OF
wage workers and farmers.
They are at least entitled to the
same consideration as public utilities
or private corporations that are only
interested in profit.

DAILY AIDS GOMPERs FUND

The Duluth, Mimi, News Tribune
contributed $50 to the Gompers
memorial fund that is being raised
by the American Federation of La
Dor. Mayor Snively, of the same
city, also made a contribution. The
News-Tribune urges every citizen
generally to aid this movement
which is intended to "perpetuate the
memory of an outstanding American"
These contributions certainly show a
fine spirit Of cooperation on the part
of the Duluth executive and News
Tribune.
The Gompers memorial monument
will be erected in Washington, within
one block of A. F. of L. headquarters
An appropriate site has been provided
by an act Of congress, which governs

knowledge is for the human race, not
for its high priests.
Some day we shall read books which
will show US why many persons strive
to become censors. Such book as
"The Well of Loneliness" will be writ
ten about censorship and it will ex-
plain lot.
There is reason to believe that some
censors have gathered unto them
selves amazing and highly priced col
lections of those works of art and
literature which stimulate but do not
edify in any idealistic sense.
Of course opposition to censorship
is basically fuonded on opposition to
all forms of autocracy. Fundamen-
tally that is the reason why we must
in thee nd get rid of it all. No trade
unionist can sanction a power which
may as easily strike at rights as at
privileges.

STUPIDITY

How stupid corporation leaders can
be was shown before the United
States senate committee on interstate
commerce a few days ago when Rod
erick Stephens, representing the Ma
tional Merchants Association, refer
red to "the leadership of discredit-
ed union which has lost its hold on
it's own members and forfeited the
good will of the public by a policy
of strikes and violence" He referred
to the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica
President John L. Lewis challenged
him at once, said his statement was
a vicious untruth" and demanded
that he be stopped. The senate COM
mittee stopped Mr. Stephens testi-
mony right there, and told him if
he had any remarks of that sort to
make he had better come with the
evidence in his hands.

MINIMUM WAGE LEGISLATION

1t is not fair to condemn the re-
suits of minimum wage legislation
for women as they stand at present,
as too few women have been affect
ed and too little time has elapsed
since minimum wage laws were en-
acted in this country. On this point
the women's bureau of the United
States department of labor says:
''If any considerable body Of public
opinion supports the theory that to
preserve the health of the workers the
state may interefer with the opera
ton of the law of supply and demand
by not allowing the worker to con-
tract to labor for less than a living
wage, and it can be shown that wages
under the old system in many cases
are so depressed that worker can
not live in health on the results of
her labor, it would seem that every
effort should be made to give mini.
mum-wage legislation a fair trial
before forming a final opinion about
it,. A lesson could be drawn from the
experience with hour legislation. 1t,
too, interferes between the workers
and the employer. 1t still is strongly
opposed in some quarters, but after
IS years of trial its value is ques-
toned by relatively few people.
On the whole, the bureau believes,
the commissions have made a really
remarkable record. IL they have been
unable to set rates that would give
every woman proper standard of
living. they certainly improved con-
the bureau finds.

THE IRON HORE LIMPING,

American railroads which hope to
cope successfully with newer forms
OF transportation are not resting on
their laurels, content with past
achievements. They are up and do
ing. intent on providing better trans
portation than ever. The eight-mile
tunnel through the Cascade noun
tains recently opened by the Great
Northern railroad is an indication of
this aggressive spirit.

merit for which many movie-goers
have thus far sought pretty much in
vain.
In another direction we have Just
witnessed the witlessness of censor
ship. An English woman, Radcliffe
Hall, wrote book which she called
"The Well of Loneliness" 1t was
promptly suppressed in England
which has boasted of its generosity
in such things. 1t was then printed in
the United States, right under the
nose of John Sumner, of the ancient
Comstock so-called anti-vice society.
The Radcliffe Hall book deals with
inversion, which is perhaps commoner
than most folks realize, and which is
by most folks little understood. The
subject is neither obscene, nor alb
struse. 1t ought to be as possible to
read an authentic work on this SUBJ
ject as on ingrowing toe-nails.
Mr.. Sumner thought otherwise and
so, with the aid of some of Mr.. Grov-
er Whalen's fearless cops and search
warrant, he went to the office of the
publisher and to Macy's department
store, where he raided and got him.
self a good supply of books. The
newspapers do not speak of any raids
at other stores where the book has
been on sale and probably still is on
sale, such as Brentano's.
Now, nobody las to read a book
such as this. But those who want
to read it ought not be compelled to
ask Mr.. John Sumner, or any other
vice hound, whether or not they may
read it. Mr.. Sumner says it should
be reserved for the medical profess
sion. Once upon a time only priests
were allowed to read books. A great
many doctors still think only doctor
ought to be allowed to know anything
about the human anatomy and its
functions.
But we grow away from these old
ideas. We find them fitting poorly
into an age of electricity and chem
istry and of airplane and radio. True
