EQUAL PAY LAWS NEEDED

Common practice that depresses
wage rates and promotes destructive
competition involves a double rate,
one for men and lower one for wo-
men doing the same or comparable
work. Six states have attempted to
meet this problem by enacting equal
pay laws. Concern for simple justice
to women workers and for the eco
nomic soundness of a single job rate
should lead all states to consider the
extension of such laws.

themselves in our midst, and if Am
erican labor does not take stock OF
the existing situation and let itself
be guided by wise counsel, the same
forces will prevail here which pre-
vailed in England 2 decades ago.
1t behooves labor to weigh the
strike weapon with great care and
not to use it unless all the pros and
cons have been weighed. To ignore
the long range consequences of the
present strike wave is bound to create
an atmosphere not dissimilar to that
of England in 1927. It is bound to
have repercussions which not only
labor but all thoughtful Americans
interested in the progress and wei.
fare of our nation are anxious to
avoid.
To those who advocate "force, more
force and still more force," the words

general in the British Labor govern.
ment, will bring no comfort. "We have
realized, because Of our experience
with unofficial strikes during the
war, that it is utterly impossible to
prevent strikes by the process OF
criminal law"
This is the issue, and it is an issue
which might well be needed by friend
and foe alike. Nobody can deny that
the adoption Of the Trade Disputes
Act in 1927 as well as its repeal Of
yesterday are pure and simple politi.
cal acts. Mr.. Bevin's parting shot tx
the conservatives that "you will do il

be needed on this side of the Atlantic

NEWS AND VIEWS
By ALEXANDER S. LIPSETT
(An ILNS Feature)

Repeal of the British Trade Dis
putes Act of 1927 by the House of
Commons corrects a situation which
in the words of labor spokesmen,
weakened the industrial structure of
Britain and subjected the workers to
"as iniquitious piece of class legis-
lation as was ever placed on the statute
books" This act was the aftermath
Of the British general strike of 1926
and contains a series Of union curbs
and restrictions which have been
fought by the Labor party for nearly
20 years.
So much has been said and written
about that legislation that recital of
it's clauses seems superfluous. But to
get clear picture of what went on
in these hectic days, it is desirable to
quote from the recent speech by
Ernest Bevin, then principal leader of
that strike and now His Majesty's
minister of foreign affairs. It was
Bevin, hard-hitting fighter and for
mer general secretary Of the Trans
port and General Workers Union, who
led the repeal forces and made good
the promise of organized labor that
when it ever came to political power
this law would have to go.
Following are excerpts from the
speech Of Ernest Bevm, which it will
do well to remember. "It is story !
have waited 20 years to tell. I am
fighting to remove the stigma which
the Tory party put upon me. This act
classed trade unions as enemies of
the state. have never been an enemy
OF the state; am a constitutionalist. y
And then he launched into recital OF
the situation prevailing before the
general strike and the role played by
Winston Churchill, whom he blamed
as "the father of all these struggles .
The strike, Mr.. Bevin said, was the
direct result of the deflation of Brit
ish currency in 1921, "done without a
mention to trade unions or industry,
upsetting the whole wage standards
of the country" The situation be-
came desperate, and though labor was
prepared to oppose further wage
cuts, negotiations to prevent q strike
took place." And then:
ION Sunday, May 2, we were
within 5 minutes Of settlement.
The documents were drafted and
are still in my possession. Sud-
denly message came to us. Mr..
Churchill had swept Prime Min
lister Baldwin off his feet. Nego-
tiations were off. We did not
know what had happened"
What had happened was walkout
by printers, which spread to include
more than z,50O,O0 workers Of ali
occupations. The strike collapsed A.
ter days.
The story Of the British general
strike is lesson not only to British
labor, but to American workers q
well. Events similar to those thsn
prevailing in England are repeating

FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1916
RED CROSS IN ACTION AT HOME

Americas first peacetime Christmas
in 5 years was time of rejoicing
throughout the nation. The Yuletide
spirit was dampened day later, how
ever, when tragedy struck a little
mining town in Kentucky.
An explosion at the Straight Creek
coal mine near Pineville trapped 81
miners. Of that number, only sur
vived the disaster The other "a were
killed in the mine or died after res
cue. Twenty-four wives became wild
ows. Eighty-two children were or
phaned.
The Red Cross swung into imme-
diate action as rescue crews fought
their way through still-blazing rubble
and deadly, gas-filled areas. Volun-
teers from the Bell County Red Cross
Chapters, aided by Eastern area per-
sonnel, brought food to the rescuers
until efforts were abandoned. Then a
survey of emergency needs and long
range relief for the widows and or
phans was begun. The bereaved fam
lilies were interviewed, food and other
necessities provided for those who
needed them. Red Cross representa-
tives met with union officers and
heads of local, state and federal agen-
cies to plan for continued care of the
stricken families.
The Red Cross will undoubtedly be
concerned with the problems of these
widows and orphans for months. For
that very reason, this case serves as
an object lesson for support of the
current Red Cross campaign.
The work of the American Red
Cross is not limited. to war-stricken
areas, nor even to ser-icemen and vet
erans.
Disaster can and does strike at
home. When it does, help is needed
quickly. That help must be adequate,
it must be sustained. Good intentions
and amateurish efforts, however, we'll
meaning, are not enough.
Every member of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor has a stake in the
work of the Red Cross. Our brothers
and sons in the occupation forces, as
well as those who have returned, will
share in its widespread services. The
work of the Red Cross among victims
of war and oppression is source of
pride to all Americans. Disaster re-
lief, civilian blood donor plans, acci-
dent prevention, home activities and
nursing programs are important.
By tradition we are humanitarians.

I'm not man who Is easily sur

Nelson that there was nothing tc

I was taken back.

But she was only warming up
then. Using an umbrella, she illus
trated her swing to Demaret, who
incidentally, had just shot SO that
afternoon to break our course rec
ord. She gave Hogan a putting
lesson on the living room carpet
and made Snead, probably the long
est hitter of them all, listen to how
she hit one 12o yards down the
middle on the fourth hole of her
sensational round Of 118.

make him listen to an account of
how they took sevens, eights, mines

were the men who could play it.
People just naturally like to be
authorities on subjects they don't
know much about. Paul Derringer
one Of the really great pitchers ol
the past ten or fifteen years, dropped
by later in the evening. Paul got
right into the swing of things ane
started telling Of his golf game, anc
the golfers for the first time opened
up. And what about? They told
Derringer all there was to know
about pitching.
A Pretty Confusion.
A stranger dropping in would have
thought that Demaret, not Derrin-
ger. had pitched in the World Series
and that Derringer. not Demaret
had just broken a course record.
When I was a sports reporter, ]
guess I must have written thou
sand stories describing how a certain
hitter choked up under pressure, OF
how golfer froze up on short putt
or how tennis player couldn't take
it when the pressure was on.
