ACM & ASR
WORKERS GET
RAISE In PAY

Approvable wage rates of $3.50 per
S-hour shift for mechanics and $7.25
per S-hour shift for common labor in
the nonferrous metal shelters and re-
fineries of Montana have been estab-
lished by the Nonferrous Metals Com
mission of the National War Labor
Board, the commission has announced.
1t directed the Anaconda Copper
Mining Company and the American
Smelling and Refining Company to
pay the new rates to mechanics and
laborers working in the East Helena,
Montana, plants of both concerns. At
present the rates in the East Helena
operations are $500 a shift for com
mon labor and $50 a shift for me-
chanics
The companies and the Internation-
al Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter
Workers of CLIO, which represents the
employees involved, were instructed
to negotiate regarding appropriate
rates for all other job classifications
in the operations using the new com
mon labor and mechanic rates as
basis for such negotiations. The par
ties are to submit the results of their
negotiations to the commission within
20 days
All wage increases are made retro
active to July 1, 1913. Industry mem
bers of the commission dissented.
In an opinion on the case, Charles
A. Graham, commission chairman,
noted that approximately 80 per cent
of laborers and mechanics working in
Montana smelters are receiving the
newly established approvable rate.
He explained that because opera
tors rates in refineries, smelters and
other types of processing plants vary
according to the process
Used, the commission believed that it
would be proper to set rates for only
hose classifications which are more
" less standardized regardless of the
ype of processing done, and then to
llow the parties to negotiate the
ates for other classifications.
In the event that the parties fail |
o agree upon the appropriate rate
or other classifications the commits
ion will conduct a job classification
tudy and settle the issue.

IMPRESSIVE

reports. The American equipment
noted includes sub-machine guns,
Browning automatic rifles, carbine
semi-automatics, anti-tank grenades,
Colt pistols, flamethrowers, mines,

lem? Will not all our interests be
better served = be multiplied = by
working together toward common
solution? In the past we have splin-
tered our lances against each others
shields; blunted our swords to no pur-
pose; divided ourselves into partisan
camps in which the work of one was
to nullify the work of the other.
There must be men up and down
our valley who have a vision that
transcends the futile rivalries of the
past The editors from Montana to
st. Louis have it within their power
to preach the gospel that the Missouri
is one big river with one big problem,
to work with the leaders of their COM
and through Them with the
people themselves-the people whose
destinies are shaped by the river as
the Nile these thousands of years has
shaped the destinies of those who
share its valley
We urge the editors of the Missouri
Valley to lift up their eyes, to make
stout their purpose. With unity we
can conquer the one big problem that
the one big river challenges us to
solve.

POLITICAL ACTION
GROUP FORMED
I'm FLATHEAD

Evidence that Flathead county i.
waking up politically is seen in {
meeting held in Kalispell ON May 80
Well attended, the meeting was called
by group of citizens for the pur
pose of organizing a county council
for Progressive Political Action. Seri
GUS and progressive individuals com
ing from all major groups in the
county were present, indicating much
wider interest and support than any
previous efforts at organization have
received
Jerry J. O'Connell, vice chairman OF
the Montana Council for Progressive
Political Action, explained the purpose
of the meeting, the form of the or
ganization, and made stirring state
ment on the Importance of the coming
elections. The issues to be decided,
he stated would affect us for gener-
atoms to come; that the people we
elect now will almost certainly deter
mine the nature of the peace that is
achieved by victory, whether free en-
terprise shall be displaced by world
cartels, whether family-type farms or
corporation farms should be the fu-
ture of American agriculture, whether
co-operatives and labor organizations
could survive and have their proper
place in democracy, and whether we
would participate in world co-opera-
ton for peace and security or return
to dangerous isolationism.
Mr.. O'Connell made it clear to those
present that the proposed organiza-
ton was not an organization of or
but of individuals; that
was voluntary; that it
was not nor could not be dominated
by any particular organization or
group, and was in no sense partisan
He also called atten-
ton to the power and importance of
state, county, and local candidates
who are often neglected by many peo-
pie, and declared that democracy
could be built from the grass roots
in any party if the people made use
Of their opportunities to do so.
A motion to organize a county coun-
Gil was passed without a dissenting
vote, and the meeting proceeded TO
elect officers. Chairman of the new
group is the veteran progressive legis-
ator well known over the state for
his 1000 record in the peoples in
crest, e. B. Bjorneby; vice chairman
S Ray Barnard of the Farmers Union;
secretary treasurer, Pat Timmons,

cry is operated For children 16 years
and older working in any of the above
occupations or industries, age certifi-
Gates MUST be obtained.
Yaeger further pointed out that no
person under the age of 81 may be
employed to serve beers, liquors Or
wines to customers at retail
Severe penalties are provided by
Montana state law against employers
for failure to have proper age certifi-
Gates and for employing under-age
children in prohibited occupations,
and against a parent of an under-age
child who has permitted his child to
be employed at an occupation prohib-
tied to children under 16 years of age.
Under the federal wage and hour
law, violators are subject to fine of
not more than $4,000 and for the
second offense, Imprisonment in addi-
ton to a fine.
Under the Wage and Hour law, an
employer must be engaged in inter-
state commerce or in the production
of goods for interstate commerce be-
fore he is covered by child labor reg
ulations of the act. The Walsh
Healey public contracts act, affecting
establishments having government
contracts equal to or in excess of
$4,000 provides that liquidated dam
ages of $40 a day for each child I'M
lawfully employed shall be paid to the
U. S. Treasury.
In the event that an employer is
covered by both federal and state
child labor laws, that law establishing
the higher standard will apply.

CHINESE NOW UNDERSTAND
AMERICANS

Before American armed forces ar.
rived in large numbers in China, the
average Chinese pictured the Amer
lean people as being fabulously rich,
living in towering buildings and hav-
ing strange manners and strange
way of living, the magazine China at
War; says. Then almost overnight,
the Chinese discovered that Amer
leans are coal miners, farmers and
factory workers. They are convinced
that the Americans are real friends of
China. To them the American make
the best of everything = battleships,
planes, movies. The planes overhead
represent American aid in concrete
form, not just a verbal promise. The
Chinese have learned that Americans
are very human like themselves, sim
pie souls who love the simple things
in life.
