WARNINGS!

The headquarters of the Ohio State
Federation of Labor has from time to
time warned its affiliated organiza-
tions in respect to advertising schemes
launched by slick advertising solici-
tors, and which were guaranteed to
return goodly sums to organizations.
members of organized labor are un-
employed and the treasures of the
organizations are very low, various
schemes are being proposed to the
organizations which they are assured
make them money. Organizations en-
tering such advertising schemes al
most invariably have been left hold
ing the bag.
Just now, it is reported, a propo-
sition is being made to arrange for
dances and to print dance program
or plscard containing advertising.
When it is all over. the organizations
find themselves in a bad condition
financially and otherwise.-O. S. F.

PURCHASING POWER

One Of the admirable features of
the national recovery act is its avow
ed aim to increase the consumption
Of industrial and agricultural products
by increasing purchasing power" This
lifts the new law from mere common
placeness, and sets it in line with the
new economic trend, away from the
dead economics of Adam Smith, in
tune with the creative thinking of
Keynes, Foster, Lorwin, Lubin, Slich-
ter and others. 1t unequestionably
UNDERWRITERS labor's primary conten-
tion that wages are more important
than dividends to the ongoing life of
s nation.
On the whole, too, it must be said,
that the recovery administration has
proceeded with good sense, dispatch,
and courage in seeking to fulfill this
aim.
Dangers, however, still lie in the
offng. These adhere in two ideas; one
Is that when hours are shortened, the
weekly wage should be automatically
cut; the other that purchasing power
can be increased by dividing wages as
between skilled and unskilled work
ers.
For years certain bankers and in
dustrialists have looked with envy up
on the building trades, the printing
industry, the metal trades, the rail
road industry, and deplored the So
called aristocracy of labor, and the
supposed high wages paid in these
fields. They have advocated putting
wage rates in line with the general
trend" meaning drawing skilled down
to the level of the unskilled.
1t is known that certain employers
would be willing to use the national
recovery act to do this very thing
if they could.
But two things stand in the way:
the unions and the law. The law
seeks to increase purchasing power.
Purchasing power cannot be increased
merely by leveling all wages down to

MUST STOP INTIMIDATION
OF UNIONISTS

Disquieting reports of attempted
intimidation of union representatives
are coming from many sections. These
reports have been placed before the
administration of the national indus
trial recovery act. All fair minded
citizens hope that the recovery admin
istration authorities will act with
speed and decision to put stop to
such discrimination, which is prohib-
tied under the terms Of the recovery
act. When public authority is against
the workers they will seldom organ
ize; the United States government
must stand back of the workers in
their fight to establish their consti-
tutional and human rights to form
trade unions and to have these unions
recognized if it wants the new deal
to be a success.

THE COMMON COLD"

Three doctors at the recent meet
ing of the American Medical Asso-
citation reported that they have gone
far to solve the problem of the com
mon cold" likewise of its big brother,
influenza.
Colds and influenza, these doctors
say, are due to two factors. One of
these is a virus composed of organ
isms SO minute that they pass
through the finest filter and cannot be
seen with a microscope. The other is
group of more familiar disease
germs, which seem harmless in them
selves until the way is prepared for
them by the virus.
Vaccination against the germs has
failed, the doctors report; but vacci-
nation against the virus has good
chance to succeed. And then-good-
bye colds.
If the recipe works, it would be
cheap at billion dollars, even in
these times. The "cold" is one of the
most pestilential curses of mankind.
Probably it causes more lost time and
more unmixed discomfort than any
other ailment, even in ordinary years
and influenza, which is the same thing
at bottom, was a daunting presence
in the midst of world war.
Even the ordinary "cold" has
enough deaths to its account; for it
opens the way to other ailments. It's
extinction would be a boon to the
world

THIS MATTER OF PRICES

There is a great discussion OF
prices and price increases.
There will be price increases. That
must be clear to everyone.
Naturally, certain lines of business
viii seek to tie prices to "a sky
rocket. But in this instance there
will be great organized machine
for the expression of public opinion
and public opinion, as never before,
will act to check greed.
1t will be best if the people are
well armed with facts. The people
will not wish to kill any good busi-
ness. There are businesses in which
there must be price increase, because
Of increased wages and shorter hours.
Let US pay those cheerfully, but let
US SOCK THE PROFITEER.

u. S. LABOR TAKES LEAF FROM
LABOR BOOK

The United States government asks
all Americans to patronize those
firms which display the Mira en-
blem, which indicates they have sign
ed the blanket code for minimum
pay and maximum hours.
Thus, inferentially, it says, DON'T
PATRONIZE THOSE WHO DO NOT
DISPLAY THE EMBLEM!
That's boycott.
That's what unions have done ever
since there has been such a thing as
union label.
Unions have said: "PATRONIZE
PRODUCTS BEARING THE UNION
LABEL"
Unions have said this because the
union label stands for FAIR WORK
ING CONDITIONS.
They have said, do not buy goods
that do not bear the union label"
And for this the courts of the
United States have hauled unions up
and put them under injunction. The
famous Danbury Hatters' case grew
out Of the boycott.
Now, behold, the Unite States gov
ernment, finding sweatshop and ex
plotting employers refusing to be de-
cent voluntarily, says to all America:
"DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS"
1t seems, after all, that through
all the years the UNIONS HAVE
BEEN RIGHT AND THE COURTS
HAVE BEEN WRONG.
The whole force of government now
lines up for THE UNION POSITION.
THE UNION LABEL LED THE
WAY.

eliminate some of the inequalities
that have developed through the orig
ination and competition of other types
of common carriers.
During the past five or six years
the rails have made great progress in
promoting economy. They have been
barred from further progress by the
law. Their inability to consoli-
date has resulted in widespread dup
locations of service - three ticket
offices are now operating where one
would do; several terminals, most
of which could be eliminued by
their joint use by several lines and
so on. The railroads will be the first
to welcome legislation which makes
possible drastic cuts in operating
costs.
AS to the other phase Of the law
there will be good deal of question
as to whether it goes far enough
Subsidized waterway competition in
certain important industrial areas

and trucks ply the highways with
almost complete freedom from regu

cies are placed under the jurisdic

will remain tense.

and that is important. 1t will b,

economic life of the nation depends
to a greater degree than is gener
ally understood, on their recovery.

READING BOSSES
TROUNCED
But Keep Up Fight in Hope
of Saving Faces

Reading, Pa. (ILNS)-Beaten to
complete standstill the hosiery manu-
facturers of Berks county are seeking
some way to prevent themselves from
publicly throwing up the sponge.
This is the view taken by all who
are close to this astounding situation
in which over 1000 full fashioned
and close to 5000 seamless workers
are on strike.
Despite the fact that every full
fashioned hosiery mill in the county
is closed and that only three or four
small seamless shops are stubbornly
fighting to avoid admitting defeat
and recognizing the union.
The employers know and admit
that the national industrial recovery
act obliges them to permit unioniza-
tion and to accept the principle Of col
lective dealings. Advised by some
slicl- legalist, the manufacturers say
that they don't have to actually ac-
cept the union until the code for the
hosiery industry has been okayed by
the president
In the weeks that must elapse be-
fore the code is adopted, the bosses
figure they can break the strike.
The spirit of the workers is so mag
nificent that nothing less than union
recognition in some form will enable
the strike to be ended. Instead of
weakening, the strikers have been
gaining strength. The turnout on the
picket lines and at mass meetings, the
success of the strikers in preventing
strikebreakers from going into the
plants, the general air of victory and
steadfastness which prevails proves
that there is no chance Of this strike
weakening. AS the message of union
ism has been brought closer and
closer home, these II 900 workers
have found themselves; they know
now they were always unionists at
heart and that they are never going
to be anything else in the future as
long as they work for a livelihood.

Building Trades
Ask Higher Pay

committees of the building trades of
the Indianapolis area have proposed
wage increases for various trades,
pointing out that since wage con-
tract was entered into January Is,
1882, with wages based on cost of
building materials, materials have in
creased in price Ia per cent.
A committee headed by Otto M.
Mueller, proposes that the new scale

in effect until January /, 1885.

a modern employer and believes in
unions, high wages, efficiency. While
her big open-shop Rockefeller rival
was writing its business in the red,
Miss Roche's annual report for 1882
recorded net profit and bigger one
than the year before.
The report shows that the Roche
miners worked an average of 191 days
in the year, compared with the state
average of 126 days. Their average
earnings were $1,650 year, two or
three times larger than in some nom
union fields.
Why?
Through high degree of union eff
ficiency Miss Roche reduced operating
costs. Through what she calls "The
intelligent cooperation and careful
work of the hundreds of employees of
the company" production per man in
creased. The work in the Rocky
Mountain Company mines produced
an average of 10.5 tons of coal per
day. That was three tons per day
more than tha AVERAGE for Colorado
The better paid worker is more
profitable to the employer.

|" Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
fOundly, sometimes flippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

The year 1884 will most assuredly
see an America vastly changed.
The 1888 model, as we move along
into the beginnings of its second half,
shows some of the effects of change
from 1882.
But by 1884 "you won't know the
old place."
Whether the industrial recovery act
succeeds wholly or in part is just now
matter of conjecture. Success may
be something of point of view, also.
But there will be tremendous
changes because of it, and there's no
question about that.
BY 1884, using January / as a
logical starting point, the eighteenth
amendment will be wiped out.
And is there anybody who thin ks
THAT won't make change.
So. Cicero, things will be different.
1t does the imagination much good
to play with the prospect of nation
whose industries are again running,
where there is work week that
never is longer than 40 hours and
that for agreat many is down to 80
hours, where wages have been ma
terially raised, and where THERE is
/ NO PROHIBITION.
The very wiping out of the spirit
Of prohibition will work wonders.
There will be renewed freedom in
America, the value of which in terms
of human happiness and spiritual
values will be beyond estimate.
"Thou shalt not" will be OUT of
the constitution.
/ Moreover, the 1894 America will
have no child labor.
There is that assurance definitely
in sight.
America probably will be the only
nation on earth free from child labor
In connection with which, isn't il
strange to find that the daily news
papers of the country are about the
only institutions trying to block the
elimination of child work? What a
feather THAT is in their smudgy
cap!
But with the tremendous wave OF
sentiment and with the new oppor-
tunity for elimination of evils by
agreement, the children of Americs
are going to be free in 1884.
Whatever our international rela.

Base, Greets st. Louis
Strikers

GILLESPIE, H., June l3.-The
Gillespie Progressive Trade Union
Committee. united front organiza-
ton, met in conference last Sunday
with 1853 delegates present The lar
gest delegation represented came
from the Food Workers Industrial
Union of st. Louis. These delegates
have just participated in a successful
strike gainst the Funston Nut Co.
which resulted in substantial gains
for the workers. They were enthusi-
astically greeted by the workers ss-
pecilly by the miners when the wom-
en- workersa pointed out that the
Communist Party was the only or
ganization which came to their as
sistance, showed them how to or
ganize their union, and guided their
strike to victory.
The conference decided to con-
tinue the trade union committee,
and to enlarge its base by making
more contacts among the rank and
file of the A. F, OF L. unions. The
conference also agreed to support
the movement for unity of the min
ers into one militant national union,
to support the struggle OF the en-
ployed miners and the jobless for
relief and to set up local joint COM
mittees IL various towns represent
ing all organizations.
