Employment Gains,
States Perkins

Continuation OF the substantial gains
in employment and pay rolls which
were reported in September was shown
in October in the combined manufac-
turing and communicating indus
tries, Secretary Of Labor Frances Per-
kins announced today (Thursday.)
Approximately $4,000 workers were
returned to employment in those COM
bined industries in October" Secretary
Perkins said. Weekly wage disburse-.
ments were $S,2OO,OOO greater than in
the preceding month.
Factory employment continued the
forward movement which began in An
gust Of this year. Estimates computed
from reports supplied by firms em-
ploying more than one-half Of the total
factory wage earners of the country
indicated additional jobs for nearly
10000 workers in manufacturing in
dustries between September and Octo-
Der. Retail trade establishments
showed a seasonal expansion, rejecting
fall buying. Employment in anthracite
mines also increased sharply, recover
ing from the losses reported in July and
August. Smaller gains we're shown in
metalliferous mining, power and light,
electric-railroad operation, wholesale
trade, hotels, and brokerage and insur-
ance companies.

wages for women and minors may work against
the adoption of the Child Labor Amendment to
the Federal Constitution and approved the warn
ing of the Executive Council of the Federation
that organized labor should %scutinize the child
labor provisions OF the compacts very carefully
before endorsing them.
Representatives of a number of States" the
Council said, have held conferences and have
sought to establish compacts providing for uni
form. standard conditions of employment, par
ticularly with regard to minimum wages for
women and minors. While certain portions of
these plans can be approved and supported, there
is one phase of the question which must be given
most careful consideration and which is classifi-
ed as Child Labor legislation.
"Since 1924 the American Federation Of Labor
has urged the ratification of an amendment to
the Constitution of the United States delegating
to Congress power to limit, regulate and prohibit
the employment of children in mines, mills and
factories.
IF State compacts make provisions governing
the labor of children there is danger that such
action might furnish States which have not yet
ratified the amendment with an excuse that no
such action was necessary because of the provi-
siOns contained IN SAID compacts.
six New England States and Pennsylvania
have such compacts. When two Of these States
have agreed to certain legislation and it is ap-
proved by Congress it becomes the law in other
States.
Massachusetts and New Hampshire have ad-
opted a minimum wage law. It provides that
no employer can pay a woman or a minor under
q years of age an unfair or oppressive wage.
When Congress consents to the action of these
two States then the minimum law becomes eff
fective in the other four States.
"The consent OF Congress is required by rea-
son of Section 10 of Article l of the Constitution
of the United States which provides No State
shall, without the consent of Congress . enter
into any agreement or compact with another
State
uniformity in Child Labor legislation can be
secured through an Act of Congress after rati-
f~ication Of the Child Labor Amendment by the
required number Of States. Our primary pur-
pose is to secure the adoption of the Child Labor
Amendment.
"The Executive Council, therefore, warns State
declarations of labor to exercise the highest de-
gree Of care in approving compacts containing
provisions governing child labor"

IIliterates in CCC Camps

Evidently compulsory school attendance is es-
sentially lacking in many Of the States whose
unemployed constitute some of the recruits mob
ilized in the camps of the Civilian Conservation
Corps. Otherwise it is difficult to account for
the figures made public by Howard w. Oxley,
director Of CCC camp education, which reveal
that according to a survey undertaken in July
there were 1869 i~lliterates in the camps, of whom
5,4O6 are now being taught to read and write.
at was found" Mr.. Oxley said, that 70 per
cent of the i~lliterates we're under Is years of age,
5 per cent between 70 and IS years Of age and
10 per cent were over IS years of age"
Mr.. Oxley added that approximately 90 per
cent of the i~literates were born in the United
States and only 4 per cent were foreign born"
This would indicate that the compulsory school
attendance laws of many states are essentially
defective in not requiring boys to at least enter
the primary grades.
This lack of adequate educational requirements
for the young occurs in both rural and urban
school administration. Mr.. Oxley's report shows
that more than half of the i~lliterates came from
rural communities, about a third from small
towns and the remainder from large cities"
1t would be a creditable achievement indeed
if enough of the $4,80O,OOO,OO relief appropria-
ton act could be allocated to attacking the i'll
iteracy problem so that it could be said with
truth that every child Of school age and every
adult throughout the length and breadth Of the
Nation could read and write.

The Middle Class

The aim of Socialism is the liberation of the
workers from wage slavery. 1t wishes to es-
tablish an industrial democracy in which work
ers shall own collectively the machines at which
they work. In such a society goods will be pro-
duced for use, and not for profit. In such a dem
ocracy there will be no rich and no poor.
The great majority of the people are work
ers and stand to gain all and lose nothing in the
change from capitalism. There are large groups
that do not think of themselves as workers. The
farmers, professionals, office-workers and store
owners call themselves the middle class, and
think that their problems are different from
those of the workers. They have a little pro-
perty, or they have just lost a little property.
They either want to keep what they have or win
back what they have lost. They are afraid that
under Socialism all property will be owned in
common, and that their ease and comfort and
their social prestige, of which they are very
proud, will be gone.

Fascists Use Middle Glass

They are wrong. In the first place, Socialism
does not aim at common ownership of personal
property. 1t wishes to socialize the production
and industrial resources. In the second place,
those who still dream that capitalism will re-
store to the middle class its property and presti-
ge are d~eceiving~ themselves. These are gone for
good.
Those, again, who look at Italy and Germany,
and think that in those countries the middle class
is winning back under Fascism its old place Of
power and responsibility, do not understand Fas-
cism. In the Fascist countries the capitalists
used the middle class as a cats paw to aid them
in breaking up the organizations of labor. Now
that job is done, Italy is going to war with Abb
yssinia to keep the middle class from learning teh
truth that Mussolini cannot restore their veal
tn and power. He hopes to keep them quiet by
giving them glory" as did Napoleon with the
French more than hundred years ago. Hitler
in Germany is arming for the same reason. Both
the Italian and the German armies can be used
at home, should the middle class become restless,
suspicious and rebellious.

That same year he came to Butte
and was admitted to the Montana bar.
In 1882 Murray was made chairman
of the Silver Bow County Democratic
Committee and was one OF the most ar
dent Of Roosevelt supporters. Later,
in 1888, he was made chairman Of the
State Advisory Board of Montana
'PWA.
When he filed for the senatorial
nomination in 1884 he gave as his plat
form his determination TO back Roose-
|velts efforts to restore prosperity and
give the nation a New Deal" and prom
ised to support every measure designed
to rehabilitate the nation and to re-
monetize silver-the later an important
measure to Montana.
Throughout his brief term as senator
he has in every instance supported
labor.
Montana labor news., 1935-12-26
Middle Class and Working Class

Capitalism has almost destroyed the middle
class. Many members Of the middle class,
whether they know it or not, are already part
of the working class. There is no reason why
the middle class should not throw in its lot with
the workers. Only habit prevents the members
of the old middle class from SO doing. The ha-
bit must be broken.
The working class needs the special skill and
knowledge that the middle class possesses. The
middle class needs the ability to organize and
fight that the working class has shown. To-
gether they can end the capitalist regime of hun
ger for the many and luxury for the few.

MURRAY RATES
fine RECORD
Squared Dealing Senator Never
Rated Much as a Politician But
Goes Over at Elections Thru
Ability to Make and Hold
Friends.
(By United Press)

When James f. Murray was elected
to the United States Senate in 1884,
to fill out the unexpired term of the
late Thomas J. Walsh, he became an
elective public official for the second
time in a long career.
Although prominent in Montana
Democratic circles for a quarter cen
fury, Murray had confined his activi-
ties to an occasional boost in direct
ing the destinies OF his party, rather
than his own as a party candidate.
His only other elective office was
when he served as Silver Bow county
attorney for two years, l906-08.
For several years after that expert
ence he apparently had abandoned pol
itics as a career, resuming only when
his friend, Thomas J. Walsh, an
nounced his candidacy for the Senate
in 1912.
That election was the first in which
a senator was elected by popular vote
previously they had been chosen by
the state legislature-and Murray
c%ampaigned valiantly and successfully
for Walsh. After hat Murray took a
