OF ten cents an hour for a twelve

handling of workmen, unsanitary
camp sites, irregular pay days,
OVefndnglng Dy means or the

Industry and politics might
well pat a practical premium on
industriousness and honesty; re
warning only those who have
earned the right through years of
service and faifhfulness. There
should be a law to compel each
worker 70 first acquire and own

forever exempted. Thus when
industry IS slack each worker
