Communists Active in Labor Move
ment," say headlines on the Dyes
House committee investigation.
"Well, what of it," some innocent
souls comment.
Just this: Communists in the labor
movement are an unmitigated nui-
sance. This is putting it mildly.
An unmitigated nuisance can cover
lot of ground and that is exactly
what the Communist in the labor
movement does.
Don't take our word for it; ask any
union man who has had to fight the
Communist borer: HE'LL TELL YOU
PLENTY.
Members of organized labor believe
in the right guaranteed citizens by
federal and state constitutions.
They believe that any person, mem
Der Of a labor union or not, has right
to any political, religious or economic
faith.
They grant the right of any trade
unionist to be a believer in Com
munism.
They do NOT believe that a
Communist has right to make
hell-raising his chief and some
times only union activity.
And hell-raising is the chief activity
of many Communist members simply
because they put party loyalty above
union loyalty. Communist party 10y
atty means loyalty to "the revolution
Putting detectives of ANY party
above union objectives invariably leads
to trouble in union.
Up to a few years ago, Communist
hell-raising in unions took the form
of outright attempts at union de.
moralization and destruction.
Then the Reds fondly believed world
revolution was right around the cor
ner and could be hastened by destruc-
tion of the labor movement, which
they knew was opposed to all theil
| works.
So they did their damndest to wreck
the unions.

| Workers Union had an experience
with this kind of Communist tactics
it will long remember.
| Fanatical Communists split the
union for a time and it seemed headed
for destruction.
David Dubinsky and others fought
the Reds to standstill and in the enc
pried loose the Communist grip OF
death.
Edward F. McGrady was one of the
A. F. of L. men who aided Dubinsky
in his winning fight.
About the same time, John l.. Lewis
now having Communist trouble, was

munist clement in the United Mine
Workers. The Mine Workers barred
Communists from membership BY
constitutional provision, which shows
what they thought of Communists.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1888.
A VERY MINIMUM WAGE

The Minimum Wage Board of Penn
sylvania has asked Ralph NJ. Bashore,
Secretary of Labor and Industry for
that state, to set a minimum wage for
10000 laundry workers at SO week
The board first planned to ask for a
minimum of $10.80 week; but some
thing shifted the majority to the lower
scale For this slow starvation wage
scale is IN one respect like some reac-
tionary decisions of the Supreme
Court; it was adopted by a vote of
five to four.
Nine dollars a week, with steady
work, means $468 a year. Passing by
the fact that most low-wage industries
are notoriously irregular employment
industries, it is simply impossible in
any good-sized town for worker to
live decently and BEAUTIFULLY on such
a sum.
Mr.. Bashore is obviously reluctant
to follow the findings Of the board;
but complains that those who ought to
be fighting such a scheme are neglect
ing to do so. There would seem to be
a moral here which organized labor
might well find.

however, to recognize favorites in the
Dvorak "Humoresque" and the Liszt
Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2" and to
express its pleasure at hearing them
so Unexpectedly. And to complete the
surprise, Dr. Kinder gave the orches-
trail arrangement of Kreisler's "Liebe-
sled" as encore.
Immediately following the intermis-
sion, the soloist, Mrs. Roosevelt, played,
choosing for her number an earlier
piano work by Strauss. The composer
had Hans Won Buelow in mind when
he wrote the "Burleske," but not find-
ing the great pianist enthusiastic about

its value and once called it sheer

The program was q varied one, hold

maintaining the high character with
which the work Of the National Sym

Mozart. Although then in his teens
and still unsettled as to his future,
the young composer wrote one of the

sensitive reaction to its many posi-
bilities contrasting with refined ar
tistry the gay first movement, the
rhythmic third and the swiftly moving
dnale with the serene and richly toned
second.

when Were You Born?" starting to-
day. Maxine was about a two-minute
acquaintance of ours before she de-
clared the wise man was all wrong
about the three inevitable causes Of
gratitude. She can read the future, she
says. She married her first love. Neither
of us remembered the third thing, but
she suspects that that also has hap
pened to her. And, she is a perfectly
happy person in spite Of, having thus
sacrificed the three things that ought
to make people happy ip this happiest
Of all possible worlds.
For ease Of interviewing, it might
be good idea for theater people to
bar all acts and advertisements except
those having to do with astro-numer-
ology. The questions are the easiest
In the world; the answers practically
as easy. Instead Of the usual fencing
around for something to ask that might
sound intelligent, one casts professional
training to the winds and becomes
pointedly personal.

know. It is disconcerting to find that

Just like every one else when meeting

Also, like every one else. they sit prac-
tically entranced while Maxine (no
one ever thought to ask her other

tlre just as If it were set in 96-point
type. Moreover, no one ever read o.

girl. She attended the university at
Lincoln, got her degree, and went to
Chicago where she taught music and
art in the public schools so successfully
that she became supervisor. All dur
ing her experience as q teacher, num-
erology was something Of . hobby
which she used to help Johnny Jones
and Mary Smith evade nunking marks.
When it appeared that either was in =
bad mood, Maxine would sit at her
desk, cast up horoscope Of the poor
child, f1nd out what was wrong and
make the correction. II that did not
work. at least in the music courses, she
simply put on a minstrel show and the
subsequent enthusiasm carried every
one straight to an A for the course.

found that one could not go on being
just hobby. It had to become voca-
ton, so after nine years Of training
young Chicagoans to be geniuses of
tomorrow, Maxine chucked education
and went into tearing the mask of the
future. That was in 1892. She has
ben doing 1t ever since.

Tests shoW that failures are fesOer in s0eu-
lighted classrooms than in poorb,-lighted ones

People once thought that progress in
school depended entirely upon the
mental ability of the student.
The fact is that proper seeing cOndi-
tiOns have an amazing effect upon a
pupils success In school. Fitting a boy
81 girl with proper glasses has been !
known to send him from the bottom
30 the top Of his class and change his !
whole aspect on life and play.
Proper lighting in schoolrooms has
worked similar miracles.
In the city of Tuscumbia, Ala, two
sixth grade rooms, alike in every way
except in lighting, were used to Gnd
out whether adequate lighting did or
did not help pupils make better prog
ress in studies. The test was carried
on over three-year period.
Divide pupils into equally
balanced groups
First the sixth grade was divided into
two equal sections, and one section
assigned to each of the two rooms.
Great pains were taken to balance the
two groups of pupils as equally as
possible, in talents, intelligence and
past achievements. Any small differ
ences were carefully noted.
Each classroom was originally equip
ped with two l5O-watt direct lighting
fixtures which were turned on froM
