Another thought that ran through
my head as l participated in that
fine celebration Sunday and Mon
day was that in a community like
ours it is difficult to speak of la
Dor as a separate and distinct part
of our community life Why, it
can in truth be said that labor"
means all of us. We're all friends
and neighbors living together in
tight little community. We are con-
stantly rubbing elbows in our daily
living. CAS- proof, just remember
how we were all packed like sar-
dimes in the grandstand during the
celebration) Everybody moved back
and forth in perfect freedom in a
common enjoyment at being one of
a happy crowd and in participating
in a national holiday That to me
IS one of the finest things in our
American way of life" A COM
mon heritage of freedom, COM

justice as between man and man.

Yes, the laboring man has come
a long way in improving his way
of life and in acquiring his rights.
He has become, as we have said, a
powerful force in our national life.
It is trite to remind him that with
the gaining of that power, he must
assume grave responsibilities. In
his hands, in many ways, lies the
future welfare of the nation This
is a serious responsibility He must
measure mp to it. He should now,
in his new-found power, insist that

A Few Posing
Thoughts on
Labor Day
By Charles D. Rowe

AS ! thoroughly enjoyed, the tlrst
of the week, the most successful La
bor Day celebration ever staged IN
Libby. combined with the Western
Lincoln County Fair, l could not
but think of the long way labor has
come down through the toiling ages
to its present powerful position in
the economic and social life Of our
nation.
NV mind went back through my
history books to the distant time
when toiling, sweating, suffering
human beings worked long hours to
exhaustion and often-times to death,
under the biting lash of a cruel
overseer, to build the pyramids OF
Egypt to the honor and glory OF
despotic and tryannical rulers. The
upward climb of the laboring man
from those distant days to the pres
ent has been a long, painful and
cruel journey. But as evidence that
the world does at least slowly inn
prove, we note the fact that today
the once doWntrodden man of Ia
Dor now stands the full equal of all
the other segnents of our popula-
ton. He has a Department of La
Dor in our government. A repre-
sentative of labor sits at its head
TO look after the interests of the
men and women who toll, and, of
course. that includes the vast ma
jority of all of us. He has the right
to combine in an association, or
union. and bargain collectively with
his employer for better pay and
working conditions He has the
right to combine in a refusal to work
in what we commonly term strike,
in order to gain his demands from
his employer. And the courts, in
most instances, will protect him in
those rights. Today laboring men,
combining their power in labor I'M
ions, are one of the most powerful
forces in the life of our great ma
lion. A long way indeed from the
pyramids of Egypt to the right to
stand as free men and battle for
and defended those rights in the
Supreme Court of the United States.
Once upon a time in my reading
ON the labor movement l ran upon
a statement picturing condition
Altdt MOuAQ dpP1dA AAAANAApho ia NAAS
light of present-day conditions.
That statement was to the effect
that back in Philadelphia in 1906
a union of shoemakers faced the
wrath of the judiciary and was
charged and tried for "conspiring to
raise the wages of its members"
When we realize that today one of
the recognized and justified pur-
poses of a union is to work for
higher wages for its members, it is
difficult to comprehend how at any
time a union would have to face
trial for attempting the very thing
that today is granted the laboring
man as a right Looking at that
bit of history in one way, such
trial was ridiculous: viewed in
another manner, it was pathetic that
group of men could be tried in
an American court for an attempt
to improve their working condi-
tions.
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1947-09-04

Much that has been said in regard
to the laboring man applies, though
in a somewhat different manner, to
that fine body of men and women
who today also comprise SO M
portant a part in our national life
The farmers of America have long
been known as one of the steadfust
bulwarks of this nation. But farmers
also look back through the pages Of
history to long tiresone years of
back-breaking toll. They have come
up from the serfdom of distant
times to the enviable position they
enjoy today. They, too, have their
Department of Agriculture in our
government. They have scores of
agricultural colleges throughout the
nation. Many of them are grad
yates of and their sons and daugh-
tiers attend the finest colleges and
universities in the land. Laws by
the score protect them in their
rights and provide privileges and
for them. They are
rich and prosperous. From the time
of Bunker Hill to the present, they
have been a wise and steadying
influence in our national life. raeir
happy condition of today is one of
the results of living in this land
we call America.

And that brings me to another
a deep thrill that came
to me during this notable celebla-
ton. Just before one of the ball
games started, the announcer said
over the loud speaker. And now

as the strains of our national hymn
