principle that the heaviest burden be

to pay" The Council added that
1--WE don't doubt for a moment that
Congress will exact heavy taxes
from persons with high incomes

''WESTERN LABOR UNION"

'WESTERN LABOR UNION'
Nearly fifty years ago there was
started in the West a dual organ
izatiOn to the A. F. of L., known as
the ''Western Labor Union.'' Acting
as parent organization it issued
craft charters and the usual direct
affiliation of local unions of vari-
GUS crafts. Most of the culinary
unions of the West were affiliated
with it and they found that they
were getting nowhere fast. The
Denver cooks union sent out a call
for a delegate convention of all our
craft unions of the "W.L.U." and
several responded and met at Colo
RADIO Springs in 1900.
PLATFORM ADOPTED
An organization was effected and
a drastic platform adopted calling for
both an eight-hour workday and a
six-day work week. At that time both
the men and women were working
not less than II hours day and sew
en- days week. Half of their lives in
fact was spent at the workshop, dining
rooms or kitchens. A craft charter was
granted so we had jurisdiction over
all men and women working in dining
rooms or kitchens.
Then came the election of general
officers. In the gathering everyone, I
think, realized the size of the task we
had undertaken and there was no
scramble to be the ones to try and do
this work. I was asked to lead the fight
and serve as the general president. It
was put in such a way that I could not
refuse and it will ever be my greatest
pride that these men and women who
were arising and going to work before
daylight with their shoes full of feet"
and dragging themselves home after
dark, thought me worthy and compe-
tent to lead the fight for them to the
promised land of six-day week and
eight-hour day.
