JERSEY LABOR
Begins Drive to Curb Use
of Injunction

Newark, n. J. (ILNSl-Pla for
a series of mass meetings to arouse
public sentiment in favor of labor in
junction reform have been announced
by the New Jersey State Federation
Of Labor.
The meetings will be held in con-
junction with 80 affiliated labor bod
les which have joined the federation
in petitioning the chancery court to
promulgate rules restricting issuance
of injunctions in labor disputes along
lines laid down by the Norris
La Guardia act
The program, federation officials
said, was designed to counteract
moves against proposed injunction re
form by four large employer groups,
the Employers Association of North
New Jersey, the Newark Chamber
of Commerce, the Manufacturers As
soeiation of New Jersey and the Rail
road Association.

OIL WORKERS
Not Sorrowing Over Su-
preme Court Ruling

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-No
tears were shed at headquarters of
the International Oil Field, Gas Well
and Refinery Workers of America
here over the decision of the supreme
court holding the oil production clause
of the petroleum code invalid. The
clause gives to the president authority
to prohibit interstate transportation
of oil produced in excess of state
regulated quotas.
Oil workers make no secret of the
fact they do not like the labor sections
of the code and they think the sooner
it is abolished the better for the ma
ton. They hope for either drastic
amendment of the code or its abolition,
with something better in its place.
The supreme court decision is held
likely to foreshadow end fthe code.
Representative William P. Cole, Jr,
of Maryland, chairman of the sub
commerce commission, has been max
ing an exhaustive study of the entire
petroleum situation, and he is re-
ported to be drafting legislation on
the subject.
There are rumors that the pro-
posed legislation will make drastic
changes and may even go so far as
to establish a new cabinet portfolio
of conservation with new secretary
in control of all affairs pertaining to
natural resources.

BACK WAGES
Paid 2,24S Women and Min
ors i'm n. Y. Laundries

New York City (ILNS)-In the
four months since August 6, 1884,
when the mandatory minimum fair
wage order for laundries became eff
fective, payment of $5,95985 in back
wages to 2,248 women and minor en-
ployes has been obtained by depart
ment of labor inspectors, Industrial
Commissioner Elmer F. Andrews an
nounced.
Approximately 1000 laundries, in
cluding practically all those in the
metropolitan area employing women
and minors and several in upstate
districts, were visited by inspectors
between August eand December q,
The inspectors found that in ass
plants women and minors We're being
paid less than the minimum dates set
by the mandatory minimum fair wage
order These rates are: Metropolitan
arear, 81 cents an hour for a 40-hour
week, with time and one-half for
overtime above As hours per week and
a 10 per cent hourly bonus for less
than a 40-hour week; upstate, 2712
cents an hour with similar provisions
for over and under time.
The minimum fair wage law pro-
vides penalties of fines and imprison-
ment for failure to pay at least the
minimum wage. Prosecution has been
resorted to in only few cases. In
most instances inspectors have nego-
tiated adjustments whereby employ
ers have paid the difference between
wages actually paid since August 6
and the wages which the woman and
minor employees should have received
under the terms of the minimum fair
wage order.

LABOR THE WORLD OVER
Written for ILNS and This Newspaper
BY DR. ALICE S. CHENEY
International Labor Office, Washington d. c..

throughout the world, more accidents
than IN building are mining, naviga-
ton and numbering. In all of these
latter industries accidents may be due
to forces of nature the action of which
it may be difficult or impossible to
foresee or control A special commit
tee of the international Labor Office
has been studying accidents in the
building trades and has concluded that
large proportion of them could have
been prevented by safety regulations.
The committee has expressed a wish
that the 1886 conference of the /. L. o.
consider the possibility of formulating
minimum standards of safety for the
building trades and embodying them
in an international agreement.
Policy of |. T. 1.-THE press re-
ports of the international Federation
of Trade Unions reprints the follow
ing statement with respect to the
policies Of the federation:
Either the trade union movement
must rise to the height Of its economic
mission, remaining the master of its
own decisions and continuing its ef-
forts for the emancipation Of the
workers, or we must go back to the
doctrine of attaining power by force,
q proletarian or reactionary dictator
ship-a mere changing of labels
which abuses its authority, resorts to
force and demands the whole life of
the people, and before which the
masses, although disappointed Of their
illusions, PROSTATE themselves with a
terrible servility. If things go as far
as this, we have to win back again
the right of association, trade union
freedom and the right of the free ex-
preston of opinion. It would mean
starting again at the beginning of the
weary circle which has already been
trodden once over. The people look
to US to defend freedom and demo-
cracy."

Women at the international Labor
Conference.-At the last Internation-
al Labor Conference there were no
women sent by employers groups, but
the workers delegates of the British
Empire, Czechoslovakia, France and
Poland were each accompanied by a
woman adviser. Nine women came as
advisors to government delegates, one
woman each with the British En-
pire's, Danish, India, Dutch, Spanish,
Swiss and Yugoslavian government
delegations, and two with the French
delegation, while two countries, Nor
way and Sweden, each sent a woman
as one Of their government delegates.
Accident Prevention in the Building
Trades Studies made by the Inter-
national Labor Organization show
that throughout the world the num-
Der of accidents in the building trades
and the seriousness of accidents seem
to be about twice as great as the aver
age for other trades.
In our own country there were, last
year, about 55 accidents for every
thousand full-time workers in the
building trade, while there were about
Ia on the average for all industries;
there were nearly six days lost be-
cause of accidents for every thousand
'man-hours,' or hours of individual
working time Of all workers added to-

in all industries was about two days
