Clifford Pinchot Wins
Clifford Pinchot, after going through
one of the most amazing races ever
witnessed in Pennsylvania, in which
power, party regularity and almost
everything else figured, appears to
have won a victory. Labor won in
several other gubernatorial contests.
The victory of Davis for the senate
in Pennsylvania brings into the i'm
mediate future the necessity for Sc
lection of a successor as secretary of
labor, a matter about which there
has been speculation for several
months.
Political experts" have ascribed
the various results to every possible
cause, including prohibition, tariff,
the administration and power inter
ests. In the maze of explanations
there has been and will be a great
deal of purely partisan fiction. 1t is
not shown, for example, that tariff
has been a particularly effective issue
in any state. Prohibition, Of course,
has been an issue, and the industrial
depression undoubtedly has helped
swing many votes one way or another
on the purely academic assumption
that new faces in the house and SEN
ate can "do something about it," per-
haps on the old theory that "there
ought to be law"
Labor Makes Clear Gain
From labor's non-partisan point of
view, leaving aside all party preju-
dices and taking into account the
changes in seats held by both parties,
labor has registered clear net gain
| in strength in congress, improving
the outlook for anti-injunction legis-
lation and for other measures sought
by labor. Federal employees, forming
a great army of workers, have appar-
emily improved their situation consid-
erably through some of the overturns
in the house and senate.
Secretary Morrison said:
II predicted some time ago that the
next congress would be the most
friendly to labor since the congress
elected in 1912, during the first Viii.
son administration. The election has
borne out my prediction"
Describing the result of the elsc
tion as very satisfactory to labor
Mr. Morrison said that he was con
fident that more legislation urged by
organized labor will be passed in the
next congress than in many wears.

LONCSHOREMEN'S
STRIKE ENDS

Galveston, Texas (ILNS) = The
longshoremen's strike, which tied up
30 vessels at four Texas ports, end
ed here November 2, when union Off
cials signed new labor agreement
and announced that workers will re-
sumo loading.
Frank Mellina, secretary of the
Gulf district of the International
Longshoremen's Association, signed
the contract for the unions. Mean
while, the labor unions made a sep
arate agreement with Lykes Broth
ers Steamship Company for ships en-
gagged in the West Indies and Cuban
trade.
The men agreed to accept rate of
65 cents an hour for southbound
ships, while on sugar consignments
inbound per bag basis will be paid.
This basis will be somewhat higher
than 65 cents an hour, it was said.
Inc new laDor agreement covers all
other ships in the foreign trade and
calls for payment of 80 cents an
hour for loading work with overtime
for $1.20. Cotton will be paid for on
basis of 18 cents a bale with Is
men composing loading gang shar-
ing in the pay.
The agreement had been tentatively
agreed on October II, after six weeks
of negotiations, but the strike came

Danville, Va. (ILNS)-Even the
strikebreakers-a few as they are
in the Dan River and Riverside Cot
ton Hills here, are threatening to join
the $500 workers of these mills now
on strike, in strike of their own.
Fewer than 500 workers, including
overseers and second hands, are en-
tering the mills these days to labor
The number of overseers and other
sub-bosses constitute about SO per
cent of the total number entering the
mill gates at both plants. The others
are the hands who are making rags"
as the old workers describe the at
unskilled employees. One worker, who
slept and ate inside the mill was
given his pay for the week, amount
ing to $20.10. Out of this the COM
pany checked off about $11 for "board
and room," leaving this strikebreaker
So for his weeks work, most of which
was done at night. He said he had
had enough and and was treking
back to North Carolina whence ne
came. Other strikebreakers are
known to be complaining Of the soft
jobs" they took and at the wages they
receive, and some Of them openly adj
vocate a strike. However, when this
talk reaches the ears of the bosses
they do not last long in the mills.
Thus far the management has re-
mained as silent as the tomb. While
some effort has been made to keep the
mills open, it has failed. No cloth is

In a joint statement issued after
the meeting of the local union here
Vice President Holderman, Represen-
tative E. F. Callaghan and Earl White
and John w. Edelman, research direc-
tor of the union, the wage cuts were
attacked as "insensate economic folly
calculated to create widespread ana
serious demoralizations in the in
dustry"
1T seems almost incredible that the
very firms which have been for sew
eral months past actively interested
in promoting the Full Fashioned Ho-
siery Exchange, which was designed
to stabilize hosiery prices, should
now suddenly precipitate what must
become the most serious and unlocked
for convulsion in the history of the
full fashioned industry We feel that
the consequences of this incredibly
rash policy at this time will be so
widely felt and will affect so many
other industries outside of the hosiery
field that the most influential agencies
in the country will be brought to play
in this crisis"

Morrison Says Labor Wins
"Best Congress Since 1922

bound to come at last, or at all events
before a great length of time, to the
six-hour work day." said Arthur
Meighen, former prime minister of
Canada, addressing a jewelers. con-
vention here.
Unless inventive genius can devise
new industries or services to absorb
the present machine created surplus
of labor, the nations of the world
must unite in pact to reduce work
ing hours, he added A permanent
solution of the present unemployment
problem might be found by replacing
machines by hand labor, but such a
plan would be turning back the hands
of progress.
Mr.. Meighen opened his analysis of
the present situation by asking
whether the present social an deco
nomic system was the right one. 'The
only answer we have to that ques-
tion," he said, sis that wherever other
systems have been tried the results
have been still worse"
''In the past the genius of invention
has created new services to absorb
those thrown out of work by the ag-
gression of machinery. Thus, al
though two men and boy could do
work requiring 100 men two centuries
ago, in the period preceding the pres
ent depression, there were more peo-
pie at work than ever before in the

Voting Enlarges Friendly
Groups in Both Houses
Senate Supporters of Judge Parker Defeated
and Men Who Stood with Labor Reelected
Norris Easy Victor

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Labor
scored heavy victories in last week S
national elections, retiring to private
life some additional members of the
senate who voted for Parker and gen.
orally enlarging the forward-looking
wedge in the senate and house, from
purely non-partisan viewpoint.
In the absense of President Green,
Secretary Frank Morrison, of the
American Federation of Labor, de-
scribed the newly elected congress as
"the most friendly since the first Will
son administration" and this verdict
seemed to express the general feeling
of trade union leaders
Some new pro-labor faces will be
seen in the new congress.
Among the outstanding labor
achievements was the defeat of SEN
ator Roscoe C. Mccullough, republi-
can, of Ohio, who was one of the lead
ing supporters of Judge Parker in
that famous battle
Allen is Defeated
Another ardent Parker supporter
sent down to defeat was Senator
Henry J. Allen, republican, Kansas.
Other pro-Parker senator's disap-
peared earlier, Phipps of Colorado
having declined to run, while SIM
mons of North Carolina was beaten
in the primaries. Blease of South
Carolina and Ransdell of Louisiana
were also beaten in the primaries.
Interest in the victories of friends
easily centered in the veteran Norris
of Nebraska and Walsh of Montana
Norris won handsome victory over
| series of amazing moves. 1t is in
teresting to note that while Norris
won, Congressman Carroll Reese
| Tennessee, chairman of the house
subcommittee which had the Norris
Muscle Shoals bill in charge anc
which blocked that bill, went down tc
defeat. If power was an issue in Ten.
nessee and in Nebraska, it also was
an issue in New York, where Franklin
Id. Roosevelt, endorsed by labor
/ piled up record victory for re-elec
ton as governor.
New Faces Friendly to Labor

clude Senator James j. Davis

ward P. Costigan, Colorado, togethe1
with that of ]. Hamilton Lewis, Hi
nois, former senator and victor owe
Mrs. Ruth Hanna Mccormick.
Some new faces will come backet
by local records, but without nationa
records. Among these is Senate
Huey P. Long, who will come from
i Louisiana to replace the pro-Par
kerite, Ransdell who was beaten i
the primaries.
Senator Borah's reelection was as
sured long before the day OF the con
test. Senator Couzens, Michigan
supported by labor, won easily.

to Mexico, won handily in New Jel

cheered the seceders as they filed out,
glad that they had been eliminated.

announced they thought the Lykes
ships to the West Indies and Cuba
were included in the negotiations.
The Lykes Line and othe rsteamship
men claimed on the other hand that
the longshoremen had been notified
well in advance that the line was not
a member of the maritime committee,
and would have to reduce pay to meet
competition at New Orleans.
About $500 men were affected by
the strike at Galveston, Houston,

being produced. 1t is said that the
surplus stock of finished goods in the
company warehouses has been un-
usually large, except in few num-
bers, these being made by other man
ufacturers to fill emergency orders
1t remains to be seen what will hap
pen after the company's stock is
cleaned up. Then, it is forecast, will
come the tug of war. The workers
are prepared for the struggle, they
say, and will welcome it any time it
may come, if that is what the COM
pany wishes. Thus far the manage
ment has refused to confer with the
workers in any particular or even
make reply to requests for confer
ence. After refusing point-blank to
deal with state and federal concilia-
tors or with the governor of Virginia,
who offered to appoint a commission
to mediate the controversy, neither
Fitzgerald nor any of his associates
have indicated what their attitude
might be in respect to the grievances
of the workers. AS was indicated,
however, this stolidness will come to
an end some time this winter, and
after that both the company and the
workers will have plenty to say.
Meanwhile the supplying of the work
ers with food and clothing goes on.
The decision in what is now re-
garded as the key fight to the organ
ization of the exploited Southern
workers is being watched with avid
interest over the United States.

Everyday Psychology
Experience.

Whatever psychology may mean tc
you, 1t can mean but one thing to those
who try to make q science OF It. And
that meaning is, "the science OF mental
experience"
If you start with this one idea,
mental experience" you may be able
In time to understand what the mind
Is, where 1t may be found, how 1t works
In the first place you must classify
your experiences. You will find two
and only two kinds: Experiences OF
information" and experiences OF
feeling" which by way of Summari-
zation may be called external and
internal" worlds.
All this means that mind Is q con-
tinuous thing, never the same from
moment to moment and never the
same q second time. One has no
trouble in changing ones mind on any
subject, for the reason that one Is
always getting new information about
ones external and internal worlds.
So much for what the mind Is. But
where shall mind be found? It's
everywhere you find a living being re-
of information.
How does the mind work2 That's
where the internal world of feelings
comes in. Your mind really doesn't
work. You work" It, The infor-
nation you get from moment to moment
is worked over by you according to
your habits of interpreting experience.
The marvel psychology is not that
we are so mentally different, but that
we are so mentally alike.
