BUTTE COURT
Decides School Teacher Is
LabOrer

Butte, Montana. - District Court
Judge William E. Carroll ruled that
the term Tabor" should not be mar
rowed down to only those who toll
with physical effort, but includes
those whose mental effort and service
are employed for pay for useful ends
other than personal recreation.
The decision was made in the case
of school teacher who sued for
wages under a state law that pro-
tects iaborers' wages.
The decision, said to be the first
made in Montana and probably the
first in the nation classifying a
teacher as a laborer, will enable the
complainant to collect wages and in
addition 5 per cent penalty and a
$500 attorney fee.

AS THE WORKER
SEES HIS WORLD
Summary and Digest Of
Important Events of the
Week, Here and Abroad

Leaders of organized farmers, rep
resenting the federal farm board and
national farm organizations, the last
group to confer with President Hoover
in the movement to maintain busi-
ness activity and prevent unemploy-
ment, agreed on November 25 to a
program to advance agriculture which
would include lower interest rates
from government credit agencies for
the farmers and the extension of fed
eral aid to road building.
Sinclair Lewis, well-known novelist
and writer, declared in a recent ad-
dress at Katonah, N. Y, that "the
United States has come to a point
where the workers must organize or
America will fall"
The Philadelphia city council has
approved 50-cents -a-day wage in
crease for policemen and fremen.
Plans for the organization of 1000
colored dressmakers, as part of the
preparations now under way for a
general strike of $4,000 dressmakers
in New York city, were made recently
at conference of officials of the In
ternational Ladies' Garment Workers
Union and representatives of civic or
ganizations in New York.
Cities have too many physicians
while smaller towns and rural dis
tricts have too few, Secretary of the
Interior Wilbur told a group of medi-
cal authorities at meeting in Wash
ington, d. c., of the committee on the
cost of medical care.
Senator Henrik Shipstead, farmer
labor of Minnesota, has returned to
Washington in good health, after ar
illness of eight months.
The Rev. d. B. Hahn, pastor of the
Pendleton Street Baptist Church
Greenville, S. c., recently displayed an
un-Christian spirit by advocating the
public whipping of men and womer
"who think they are called upon to
reform conditions in textile mill vii
lages."

IT breaches

Los Angeles (ILNS)-In keeping
with its belief in the fve-day week,
which The Los Angeles Citizen, one
of the best-known labor papers in
the United States, has been consist
emily advocating, the papers board of
publishers has in augurated the five
day week for it's office force.
In announcing that it is practicing
what it has been preaching, The Citi-
zen says:
For many years the 44-hour week
has been observed an The Citizen
office closed on Saturday afternoon.
The new departure is appreciated by
all employees of The Citizen to the
fullest extent, and labor's official
paper is proud to be among the first,
if not the first labor employer of la
Dor in Los Angeles to fall into line
with what is surely coming-the
shorter work week"

San Francisco.-Shop men employ
ed by the Northwestern Pacific Rail-
road Company rejected the: elastic"
work day, which would establish the
long hours in rush times. The rail
road is short line near here. If the
elastic" principle were adopted it
would extend to other carriers who
accept the eight-hour day.
The plea for the elastic work day
was based on theory that it will

WILL URGE RETIRE
MENT

Washington. - Organized federal
employees will press their retirement
bill at the regular session of con-
gress, which convenes the first Mon
day in December.
This measure was reported favor
ably to the senate last May. 1t is
sponsored in that body by Mr.. Dale
of Vermont. The bill raises the maxi
mum annuity from $1,000 to $1,000
and would permit workers who have
served 80 years to retire at lower
age limits than those fixed in the
present law.

BATTLER FOR JUSTICE
CLASSED AS PATRIOT

New York.-Patriotism should not
consist of verstressing the military
element, but should include work for
peace and the social welfare of the
nation, declared Governor Roosevelt
in an Armistice Day speech.
"The true function of the atriot,"
said the state executive, "is not alone
to seek maintenance of adequate arm
ed force, but to constantly fight
against the moral enemies of liberty,
equality and justice"

Q.-Is the opinion held among off,
cials of departments of labor that
much i'll health is caused by improper
working conditions?
A.-Yes. For example, John Roach,
deputy commissioner of labor of New
Jersey, recently said that there is no
doubt that large percentage of sick
ness among workers is due to i'm
proper working conditions, exposures
to poisonous trade substances, fatigue
and sustained effort beyond the
strength Of the individual. He added
that when industry operates carefully
so that poisonous substances are
handled by trained men when dusts,
gases and fumes are collected at the
point of origin, and when workmen in
general are given health protection
there is no doubt that there is most
favorable effect on the health of work
ing groups.

NAVY FEARS PRE-
CEDENT BY LOAN
ING WAR VESSEL

Washington.-The navy department
declined to comply with the request
of Tacoma mad Seattle city officials
to authorize the use Of the aircraft
Lexington as an auxiliary to the cleo
trio power plants of these cities.
The two Washington cities, suffer
ing from a severe drought which is
reported to threaten their hydo-elec-
trio water supply, appealed to the de-
partment to detail the huge aircraft
carrier as an aid to their electric
power resources during the emer-
gency.
The department fears to establish
a precedent, and suggested that the
cities dispense with all unnecessary
power. Only the "gravest emer-
gency," it was stated, would justify
change in the departments policy.

Q.-What is meant by productivity
of labor?
A.-The output of a worker in a
given time. 1t is best expressed in
the form of output per hour, but in
the absence of an hourly record of
time, may be stated as output per
day, per crew, per week, or even in
larger time units.
