100000 GARMENTS FOR
SPAIN

NEW YORK. - (FP) - Needle
trades workers and other New York
unionists will send 100000 garments
to the Spanish republic.
The campaign was launched at a
gathering of 5000 workers, who
were addressed by Kurt Rosenfeld,
former Prussian minister of justice
and now a refugee, and Melach Ep-
stein, war correspondent back from
Spain. A trade union committee to
gather clothing has been formed,
representing 100000 garments, fur,
millinery and boot and shoe workers.

week disclosed that the current tax
collections were 10 per cent less than
the year 1885 with the delinquent
tax collections, naturally running
way behind the last years figures.
Of the four county funds actually
disbursed by the Commissioners,
there is a deficiency of $29,903 from
last years figures, the poor fund
alone showing $8,945 less than the
balance this time last year.
On account of the retrenchment of
the w. P. A. programs, the Board
experienced an unprecedented call
for relief this session, and as the
shortage of funds precludes a wide
spread expenditure to carry on a e
lief program, the Board decided last
Wednesday to discontinue relief or
employment to any family which in
cludes an able bodied man.
1t is pointed out that the financial
set up of a county was never de-
signed to take care of any wide
spread unemployment as now pre-
walls, therefore the funds now avail
able r entirely inadequate.
Another situation has now ap-
peared by the Federal Government
refusing to participate in any pen
sion allowances when such warrants
are registered for lack of funds. AS
there are now 1876 pension claims al
lowed each month, the Board does
not feel justified in jeopardizing
these payments by depicting the
poor fund to a point where poor fund
warrants registration would be nee
essary for it would simply lean the
discontinuances of the Old Age Re-
lief System.

per share in 1885 to $1.4O in 1886"
Citing Standard Statistics reports
that l25 extra dividends were de-
clared in September, 1886, compared
with Sc in September, 1885, the Sur
vey added:
"a number of companies have in
creased dividends to reduce surplus
and thus avoid the tax on corpora
ton surplus. Since surplus can also
be reduced by increasing wages,
there was no need to favor those
who invest money above those who
invest labor.
Small Increase in Buying Power
workers weekly income has in
creased more than hourly earnings
because hours have been heightened.
BY working two hours longer and
by receiving half a cent more per
hour, workers have added Sill to
their weekly pay, raising the average
wage level from $21.35 to $22,53.
This is 5.5 per cent increase, some
what more than the increase in cost
of living, so that the average weekly
wage of 1886 will buy 81 per cent
more than that of last year.
Workers total income has in
creased more than either weekly
wages OF hourly earnings because
there have been more at work this
year than last. In September, 1886,
employment exceeded last year by
2,250, 900. Total income has risen
11.8 per cent from $23, 751, 900, 900 in
the first eight months of 1885 tc
$26, SAT, 900, 900 in the same months
of 1886. (These figures omit farm
labor.
Importance of Unemployment
Accounting for the rise in living
costs, this represents a 9.3 per CEN
gain in workers buying power, in
creasing our home market for in.
dustry's product by $500, 600, 00(
for the year. These figures show thai
unemployment is vital to the nation
buying power could have been in.
creased vastly more however i
wages had been raised commensu.
rately with industry's capacity tt
pay, and if hours had not beer
heightened.
InequitabIe Wealth Sharing
"Any gain in workers income i
important, but to raise workers in
come by sacrificing leisure for thos'
at work and possible jobs for thos,
without work is by no means con
structive. 1t does not represent al
equitable sharing of the wealth ere
ated by the joint efforts Of manage
ment and workers. Industry thii
year has been in a position to raisc
wages by a substantial amount, bu
it has increased average hourly
wages by less than l per cent"
The Survey also expressed tht
opinion that the three-power golc
agreement between the UniteC
States, Great Britain and France
benefits the workers in all countriei
because currency sterilization
coupled with lifting of tariff bar
riers, tend to release internationa
trade for growth, and growth of in
ternational trade means more worl
for wage earners in all countries"

Labor's Interest in The
Consumer Cooperation
Continued from Page Four)

The second foundation stone, edu-
cation of cooperative members, is
also of the greatest importance. Be
fore they even consider opening a
store, co~operators should make care
full study of the Rochdale principles
and of the business problems they
are likely to meet. They should go
thoroughly into details, they should
take the greatest ear in drawing up
their constitution and bylaws. This
study may require a period of sew
eral months before all points have
been thoroughly worked out, but 1t
will be well worth while. For IN the
discussions questions of policy will
come up, co%operators will gain an
understanding of the relations be-
tween their enterprise and the move
ment as a whole, they will be able
to see beforehand where certain poll
cies will lead them and be ready to
meet problems when they arise.
Such study should teach the history
of the cooperative movement, both
here and in the countries where 1t
already has long experience In
wholesaling and manufacture as well
as retail trade. 1t should show the
full significance of the movement, SO
that cooperators will realize their
part in it and their interest will not
end with the getting of dollars and
cents in profits. Education should
seek to build up community spirit
through the cooperative SO that it
will become a true community
movement. Such education is nee
essary if c~ooperators are to stand
loyalty back of their enterprise
through the difficulties it is bound
to meet.
Thirdly, close alliance with the
trade union is essential for full
rounded economic growth. There is
real danger in the United States
where powerful interests are con-
stantly seeking to keep wages al
the lowest possible level, that CO.
operatives may become merely the
means of helping low-paid workers
to exist on a mere pittance. Wage
standards must be buttressed by
strong union organization if CO.
operators are to have income to
spend in their stores. Our conven-
ton of 1917 made a basic point when
it stated that the trade union and
the cooperative are twin remedies"
They must go hand in hand. Living
standards must be raised both by
wage increases and by the savings
of consumer cooperation.
In countries where consumers CO.
operation has been most successful
it has been closely allied with the
trade union, and this alliance is
equally essential in America. In g
cooperative economy, the farmer
needs his producers ~cooperatives to
protect his prices and handle his
marketing problems; the worker
needs his trade union to protect and
raise wage standards; both need the
consumers cooperative.
The cooperative movement can dc
much to build up its alliances with
Labor by insisting that the goods
sold in c~ooperatives are manufac-
tured under fair labor standards, by
demanding the union label, by en-
%couraging employees of cooperative
to organize in unions.
The American Federation of La
Dor is ready to work with any con-
structive movement for consumers
cooperation. We realize what CO.
operation can mean to wage earners
and are anxious to see a strong and
lasting movement built up in this
country.

GAIN EXTENDED
BY COTTON

NEW YORK, May IA Q.N.SO.
Displaying more strength and &C
tivity than for some time the cot
ton market extended gains in later
dealings.
Higher foreign cables and a con-
tinuation of the good demand from
abroad were factors in the ad-
vance. A moderately bullish con-
sumption report also aided sentl-
ment as did a bullish construction
placed on Senate passage OF the
Smith bill for liquidation Of loan
cotton.
Liverpool and the Continent
were providing a good demand
particularly for the new crop
months which scored substantially
heavier gains than the old crop
options. The Far East was also a
buyer. On the domestic side the
trade was a buyer in the near
months and there was some short
covering in these deliveries. Prin-
cipal liquidation was coming from
the South, locals and spot houses.
Towards noon the market con-
tinued near highs for the day.
May was quoted at 11.60, up 2;
July, 11.34. up S; October, 1O.43,

RISING CURB
BY EDWARD KRICKER

NEW YORK, May IA U.N.SO.
Curb stocks pushed ahead strongly
in later dealings with the oils and
a few specialties in the can OF the
market. Trading, while not heavy,
was in better volume than has
been the case recently.
Humble, which touched a new
low of the year yesterday, was in
good demand today climbing 3
points to feature the oils, Gulf
followed with gains of l12 points
and the medium priced oils such
as International Petroleum and
Standard Of Ohio added fair frac-
tional gains.
Among the better gains in the
miscellaneous list were an advance
of almost 4 points in MaSonite and
of almost 3 in Sherwin Williams
and Aluminium of America. The
lower priced Novadel Agene did as
well, climbing 21a points to AZ.
Buying on the recent increase in
dividends continued in Hazeltlne
and the stock spurted more than
a point. American Cyanamid b,
Technicolor, and Pittsburgh and
Lake Erie scored similar gains.
There were few soft spots. Aluml-
mum industries met with profit.
