WHILE INSURANCE RECORDS
ARE MADE

Strange as it may seem, other
business records considered, life in
surance companies are breaking rec
to date show all former marks sur
ords this year, and 1880 sales records
passed.
If this is so it must mean that wage
earners are buying life insurance at
about the usual rate.
1t is to be hoped that wage earners
are looking to their own splendid
company, the Union Labor Life Insur-
ance Company, organized by labor,
owned entirely by labor and not
operated for profit.
The Union Labor Life Insurance.
Company, like every other truly trade
union venture, came into being to
serve wage earners, and it is per-
forming its mission magnificently,
growing meanwhile at happily sat
isfactory rate.
Wage earners who want wisely to
protect their families against suffer
ing, should turn to their own insur-
ance company, the Union Labor Life
Insurance Company. If records rae
being broken this year, this company
should be given trade unionists' help
in that direction.

CITY CAN HOLD JOBS

New Orleans.-The state supreme
court upheld a Louisiana act which
prohibits the employment on public
buildings of mechanics who are not
bona fide citizens and duly qualified
voters of the state.
A contractor in this city who vio-
lated the law was sentenced to pay
a fine of 500 or serve 60 days in jail.
The supreme court upheld the lower

The automatic machine has brought
US something that requires drastic
readjustment, and industry is so un-
willing to yield to the plain facts in
the case that rapid readjustment is
impossible.
The most hopeful thing in America
today is the rapid organization of
wage earners into unions whose pro-
gram is the one truly healing thing
in sight.

sometimes recklessly. .........

The political women are at it again.
No sooner had Gov Roosevelt, in New
York, signed the Mastick 48-hour
week for women bill than the national
woman's party went to war.
The national woman's party
wants no protective legislation for
women. 1t wants equal rights for ex-
ploiters as well as for women.
The argument of these women is
that a woman should have the right
to offer an employer as many hours
of work per day as a man can offer.
If she wants to offer ten or twelve
hours of work day she should have
the right to offer that many-so the
political women offer.
It's great argument and it should
please a great many employers.
What employer" say these wom-
en-, will not prefer to give a man
job when he can work more hours
week, needs no half day off and can
work overtime whenever necessary"
And so they are protesting against
this new law which, they assert, "is
mistakenly conceived as a help, but
is in reality hindrance to women
who work"
Of course the truth is that women
| have shown themselves less able to
protect themselves against undue ex-
ploitation than men. And not even
the most highbrow of the highbrow
political women have found way to
change the biological situation which
is a fundamental consideration in all
legislation designed for the protection
of women who work.
The viewpoint now expressed by
the national woman's party goes be-
yond anything hitherto expressed 1t
is not merely that there should not be
special laws for women, but that all
should be free to compete with whose
standards are lowest. If there is a
man who will work ten hours a day
there should be woman free to offer
the same number of hours of toll.
The national woman's party view
is essentially reactionary. 1t would
have gladdened the heart of the late
Judge Gary. Compete to see which
worker can offer the longest day OF
work, the most overtime, the least
rest and necessarily the lowest

Although refusing to admit just
what caused their optimism, au-

the murder may have been COM
mitted by woman, and prooaoly
was the work of someone familiar
with the interior of the small Volt
man home, as forming the base OF
their investigation.
They added belief that the girl,
sleeping in her bed in the same

when her throat was cut with
keen knife or razor blade, was mis-
taken in the gloom for the elder
sister.

ABOARD U. S. S. KANE, Sept. Is.
The third match between the En-
terprise and the Shamrock in the
series for the Americas cup was
called off at 1890 a. m. today when
the race committee decided that
weather conditions were so adverse
that neither yacht could finish the
thirty miles within the five and
one-half hour time limit.
For Shamrock the postponement
came as a welcome period for recu-
peration and readjustment. For En-
terprise the days delay was not so
pleasant. Harold S. Vanderbilt'S
crew was geared to a hight pitch
and the postponement came as a
let-down.
Vanderbilt has won two races for
the honor of American Seamanship

rock v, and in so doing he has
taken about half of the thrill out OF
