SUICIDE OF A COMPANY UNION By WM.. Z. FOSTER.

,Since the introduction of the Rockefeller Plan to befuddle the workers and defeat the Miners' Union in Colorado some years ago, following the efforts of the unholy combination of Standard Oil interests and corrupt state officials to crush all labor organizations, there has been many another scheme more or less similarly devised by numerous corporations to head off the real organization of their employees.

Amollg these may be classed the Midvale Steel and Ordnance Company and its subsidiary companies, the chief of which is the Cambria Steel Company, of Johnstown, Pa. Lashed by growing public sentiment and faced with the declaration of the War Labor Board of the right of Labor to organize and bargain collec· tively, the Cambria and associated companies brought into being what they are pleased to call a "Collective Bargaining Association." It was in Johnstown that this association was expected to bring forth its finest flower. Shop committees were organized in aU departments in the great works, all carefully chosen and dominated by bosses of varying degrees of importance. Elaborate by-laws were framed, printed in non-union shops and liberally distributed among the workers.

This was a little less than one year ago, and just about the same time organ· izers of the American Federation of Labor hit Johnstown with instructions to launch a campaign for the organization of the iron and steel workers. This real union plan appealed to the workers. Many joined. The eminently "fair" corporation began to discharge men who joined the union by wholesale. The headquarters were picketed day and night by company police.

When some of the discharged workers sought to invoke the machinery of the "Collective Bargaining Association" in the effort to learn the cause of their being thrown on the street, they were politely advised that the "Collective Bar· gaining Association" did not function in

cases of this sort. Thus it came about that in the early months of this year when thousands of men were discharged in the Cambria plants each one who tried to secure any redress found every avenue closed against him.

True, there was an occasional meeting of this or that shop committee and inconsequential grievances weI' e adjusted. The best proof that the great body of the workers looked with suspicion on the company union is found in the fact that the real unions continued a rapid growth. Johnstown was called a well-organized town. Each department, of course, had a number of "hardboiled" men that the union had failed to interest to the point of joining. Organizers racked their minds trying to figure out how these might be reached. The company solved the problem.

The campaign for organizing the steel workers reached the pomt where President Gompers wrote the heads of the steel concerns asking for a conference. This communication being ignored, the heads of twenty-four international unions, or their respresentatives, met and drafted a set of demands for higher wages, shorter hours and improvement in working conditions. Being submitted to a vote, the rank and file of the steel workers registered a 98% vote in favor of the demands and expressed the determination to strike, if necessary, to secure them.

When it became known that a strike was a possibility in the steel industry, the long·concealed functions of the "Collective Bargaining Association were disclosed. Star chamber sessions of "committees" were held in Johnstown and in other sections where were located plants of the Midvale Steel. At these meetings, hand-picked delegates were named, and the date fixed for the holding of a "Con· vention" at Atlantic City.

Parlor car transportation was furnished the "delegates", and the bills in the high class and expensive botels in the popular summer resort were all

taken care of by the Midvale Steel & Ordnance Company. Moreover, to provp what might be accomplished by the company plan of collective bargaining it is said that each delegate so inclined was provided with congenial feminine companionship.

As might be expected the Company realized at once on its investment, for the "Convention" lost no time in passing resolutions denouncing profiteering grocerymen-no mention was made of profiteering steel men-and declaring that the cost of living must "be abated by diligent, efficient and conscientious labor, by thrift and the avoidance of waste and extra vagence.

But the meat of all the resolutions is contained in the following gem: "That the persist.ent and unceasing demand of workmen in all classes and kinds of Industries for a shorter day's work and an increased wage in order to meet the present high cost of living is uneconomic and unwise and should not be encouraged."

When the delegates reached home, they observed a marked change from the pleasant atmosphere so noticeable at Atlantic City. In spite of the widely heralded press reports sent out by the Midvale Steel Company that the delegates to the "Convention" represented its 30,000 employees, the first the workers in the mills know of their oppOSition to the shorter workday and wage increases was in the newspaper reports of the "Convention."

This was the last straw. Even the "hard-boiled" men could not stand for this. They flocked into the unions. The

problem of reaching these men had been solved and the organizers were swamped with applications for membership.

For the first time in its history, the Cambria Steel plant did not operate last Labor Day. For a month previous to Labor Day the word had been sent among the men that any who failed to report for work on that day need not report on the day following. But practically all were in the union, and all union men participated in the parade. So what could the Cambria Steel Company do?

It either had to back down or fire it~ entire crew. It backed down. None of the men were discharged.

Banners in the parade spoke the sentiments of the men. One of them read: "We are the REAL representatives of the Cambria Steel Company." Another, "We are for shorter hours and more pay." Still another, "The Collective Bargaining Association Must Go."

The same story comes from Coatesville and Nicetown, where other :\iidvale Steel Company, plants are located. The resolutions of the Atlantic City "representatives" proved to be an overdose. and now men heretofore backward are stampeding into the unions. The company union in these places has gone into the discard.

Other company unions becoming weary of the vain struggle to keep back the tide of real unionism that is sweeping the country and desiring to make a painless exit into oblivion may gain some valuable pointers from the stunt staged at Atlantic City by the Midvale Steel Company.

EDITORIAL • SHALL WE There has come to our attention a circular letter dated DIVIDE Dallas, Texas, Sept. 6th, which we are informed by L. U.

69, was sent to all outside and mixed locals in the Brotherhood with their knowledge and authority and with seal of that local union affixed. .

As the information indicated, the circular had not been sent to all local unions in the Brotherhood, the International took the liberty to supply all locals with a copy of same. The plan outlined in the circular letter recommends the separation, from the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers of the membership known as Outside Electrical Workers. Careful perusal of the recommendations fails to disclose any reason why such a separation is desirable, except the statement that the signers of the recommendations believe they are a detriment to the Wiremen and vice versa. No attempt is made to explain upon what grounds such conclusions have been reached, and it is our belief that the expression of those who sign the circular is not representative of the feelings of the Outside Electrical Worker. Attempts are made to compare linemen and wiremen with iron workers and boiler makers, pressmen and printers, locomotive firemen and eagineers, trainmen and conductors. A proposition that presents no more practical line of comparison, and is barren of a more meritorious reason than that one branch of the trade is a detriment to the other, in our judgment, offers little ground for favorable consideration and indicates that even those who drafted the proposition ran short of arguments for it before they started. However, it is possible that they may know some good reasons, as to why the Electrical Workers of North America should divide their forces, which they will advance later on. Therefore, we withhold further comment upon the proposition and confine our views to what we consider some of the dangers existing in a division of forces. As the Electrical Worker has once before experimented with division, and there has been admitted something over one hundred thousand members since that experiment occurred, we believe it proper to go some\vhat into the results of former ventures of this character.

As only about one-sixth of the present membership went through the harrowing experiences of divided forces from 1908 to 1914, it is only fair to the hundred thousand and more members who have been admitted since 1!)14 to give them an understanding of what they are called upon to consider. Consequently it is necessary to refer somewhat to past history.

In 1908 the Brotherhood had reached what was at that time its peak of power and influence. The great electrical corporations, including light and power, telephone and telegraph companies, were not slow to recognize what the power of the International Brotherhood would be if the Electrical 'vVorkers of North America continued to organize and combine themselves into a comprehensive militant organization. These interests believed the cheapest way to fight the Brotherhood and destroy its influence would be to retard its growth. Their agents in the organization were instructed to spread extensive propaganda to cause unrest and dissension. Their efforts, combined with the efforts of ambitious office seekers, resulted in a division of the International Brotherhood for a period of six years. The loss to the organized Electrical Workers through this division cannot be computed, neither can the profits taken by those promoting the division be calculated. Suffice to say that the progress


of the Electrical Worker in organizing and obtaining improved wages and working conditions was greatly retarded.

Finally after six years of strife the fallacy of divided ranks became apparent to all, and the organized Electrical "Vorkers of North America once more reunited into one organization with the purpose and object of establishing economic justice, improved working conditions and obtaining for the electrical worker a proper return for his labor.

Since this reunion occurred the Brotherhood has enjoyed five years of uninterrupted progress and success. Approximately one hundred and twentyfive thousand new members have been admitted; wages and working conditions have greatly improved; and the power and influence of the electrical workers' organization built up until it stands second to none and fourth in numerical size in the American Labor Movement.

Can it be possible when these facts are considered that a division is desirable ? We think not, and believe ninety-five per cent of the membership agrees with us. There is no more room for two organizations of electrical workers in North America than there is room for dual systems of government in the United States or Canada.

We will refrain from commenting upon the sincerity of those who have initiated the move and dislike to believe that organized capital is the influence back of the proposition, but we have no hesitation in stating that the great electrical corporations will view with much favor a division of our forces, and now that the plan is launched these corporations will not hesitate to give the proposition their usual underground support.

\\That is probably a peculiar coincident is the fact that the move is initiated by local unions from a section of the Brotherhood where we have been prosecuting, in the interest of the Outside Electrical Workers, one of the most bitter fights in the history of the organization. 'vVe refer to the strike against the Texas Power and Light Company, a corporation that has been openly hostile to organized Labor since the date of its incorporation, and incidentally a corporation whose future relations with their employees will depend upon the result of this difficulty. At this writing our information shows the Texas Power and Light Company has reached a point where they consider it next to necessary to settle the trouble favorably to the organization.

\Vere we managing the affairs of similar corporations and did not desire to treat with the employees on an organized basis we would be watching with interest the outcome of the Texas Power and Light difficulty, and would realize that if the Texas Power and Light went down to defeat at the hands of the organized electrical workers that ultimately other corporations would be confronted with the same situation. To offset this possibility we would naturally take time by the forelock and study out what would be the easiest and best method to defeat the Electrical \Vorkers. We would come to the natural conclusion that with a divided organization the electrical worker would not be a factor to fear. \Ve would investigate the condition of the organized electrical workers; obtain information concerning their numerical strength, their power and influence; and it would be our policy to launch a movement to divide this power and influence if we found it to be sufficient to fear. \Vhy not give corporation managers credit of ability to think similarly?

\Ve ask all members to consider this question very seriously. \Ve urge that the proposition be repudiated in no uncertain manner. \Ve appeal to you to tell the advocates of division that your time and efforts will be employed in constructing and not in destroying. We are confident of what your answer will be for we have yet to find our organization confronted with a question which the membership have not disposed of in a sane, rational manner.

Keep in mind that old adage, "United we stand, divided we fall."

7. THE JOURNAL OF ELECTRICAL

THE ELECTRICAL WORKER AND TWO YEARS OF PROGRESS

The International Convention will be approaching the time for adjournment when this issue reaches our readers. At this writing everything points to a successful and harmonious

meeting, with indications that much progressive and helpful legislation will be enacted.

The officers' reports show that the Brotherhood has made most wonderful progress during the past two years, the membership increasing from 57,000 at last convention, September, 1917, to 148,000 with the opening of the 1919 convention. \Ve doubt if any other organization can show like gain.

No other organization has as many diversified interests, the very character of our calling makes the electrical worker highly essential to every line of commercial and industrial endeavor. There is no higher type of citizens than are to be found in the Brotherhood's membership-their loyalty to country and organization provides the evidence. The electrical worker is a builder, not a wrecker. That he constructs from the ground up is shown by the organization he has established.

The many fanciful rainbow offerings advocated by self-appointed liberators of labor hold no attraction for the electrical workers, who consider they need no economic quacks to do their thinking and advise what is for their best interest. Naturally, among 150,000 men there would be some that desire to experiment with old discarded, worthless theories that have been dressed over q.nd placed on the market as new goods by hot air vendors. Such experiments invariably result in strengthening confidence in the Brotherhood which is built upon the foundation of justice and roofed with fraternity, equality and benevolence-principles that assure respect and success.

UNION-MADE All electricians use in their work bits of one kind or BITS another. All good electricians are union men. Union

men should show preferep.ce to union-made products. No member of the organization need to use a non-union made bit produced by non-union labor. We know the best work is performed by union men. It naturally follows union-made products are superior to non-union goods. Any member who wants the best union-made bit should ask his dealer for the "Mephisto."

PLUMB Organized Labor has ad"anced a plan dealing with the future PLAN of the railroads, a problem that has worried our national law

makers for the past several months. The solution offered by Labor for the disposition of the railroads is known as the Plumb Plan, deriving its name from the author of the plan, J\<1r. Glen H. Plumb, who drafted same at the request of Organized Labor. .

The plan offers the most practical solution of the railroad problem so far advanced. However, as expected, it is being bitterly assailed by organized capital as confiscatory, socialistic, anarchistic, etc. The fact that capitalistic interests are required to resort to such methods of attack and classification of the idea, demonstrates that they have no practical substitute plan to offer; and to thinking people, the efforts made to discredit the plan are in reality the best boost the plan cou!d receive, inasmuch as practical railroad managers cannot advance any suggestion for the future administration of our railroad affairs but the private control arrangement. This arrangement has been known for years to be worthless and impractical, as best evid~nced by the necessity of the Government's taking over the railroads during the war, as a result of their complete failure to satisfactorily handle the nation's business under private management.


Therefore, if the critics can offer no other argument against adopting the plan, Labor is satisfied that it has offered a proposition that is practical and fair. We give the plan our endorsement and pledge our support to it, only after a careful analysis of the negative arguments offered that the plan is confiscatory in character.

Confiscation means taking private property for public use without com- . pensation. The Plumb Plan does not provide such a method. It contemplates the purchase of the railroad systems by the Federal Government at a price equal to their actual physical valuations, thus "squeezing the water" out of the valuations, and it is generally admitted the "water" or paper value of the railroads represents no small part of the whole.

We venture the opinion that if the plan proposed to take the systems over at their book value, every railroad, banking, and investor's interest would be voicing their approval as loudly as they now voice their opposition. The plan has caused consternation in the circles of such interests, for they realize that the proposition was initiated by five and one-half million trades unionists, who represent at least one-fifth of our entire popUlation. They also understand that those responsible for the plan have well-organized machinery to promote it, and are determined to abolish forever the control by private enterprise the commercial arteries of the nation.

Every day brings thousands of converts to the plan. Farmers and small business men, who have suffered from the iron heel of oppressive railroad conditions, are fast realizing that some such plan is necessary.

Since the Plumb Plan was offered, a number of others labeled similar in character have been presented for the purpose of dividing public opinion. Such moves were anticipated but are not feared; and those who are opposed to the public control and ownership of the nation's transportation facilities will find that they must eventually accept some rational disposition of this question. The cry of anarchy, socialism, and confiscation will not be sufficient to divert the public mind from the real issue; and we are not so sure that, even though the scheme were confiscatory in character, the public would have any great sympathy, for the public have not forgotten the practice of confiscation employed by the railroad companies of exacting rates sufficiently high for the companies to meet dividends upon billions of dollars worth of watered stock.

Be a Plumb Plan Booster!

THE RAILROAD The recent strike of a portion of the railroad shop STRIKE employees resulted in a large number of the members

of the Labor Movement again being victimized by self-appointed leaders, who succeeded in influencing thousands of men to suspend work in violation of their organization laws and in disregard of agreements with employers. Those who participated in the strike did so sincerely, believing that they were doing something helpful for Labor's cause, but, in fact and effect, they were only shattering the public's confidence in the movement, and bringing unnecessary sacrifice to themselves; and once more the result of unauthorized and hastily-called strikes is repeated-nothing gained.

Just how those responsible f~r the strike can justify their conduct or have peace of mind when they inventory the loss caused, is difficult to understand. It was claimed by these self-appointed saviours of Labor that two hundred and fifty thousand out of the five hundred and fifty thousand shop employees of the railroad systems responded to the strike call. This figure represents less than one-half of the shop employees of the various railroad systems. The number involved is not far from correct, the vast majority of which were journeymen mechanics earning $5.44 per day without consideration of overtime. Thus, with two hundred thousand journeymen out of work, the daily loss to them would be $1,092,000.00. To this is added the loss to


helpers or approximately $180,000.00 per day, making a total of nearly one and one-fourth million dollars daily, a money loss that can't be recovered, representing an amount that the individual could ill afford to lose.

The strike was not approved in any way by the international unions affiliated with the Railway Employees' Department of the American Federation of Labor. The officers of these organizations did everything possible to save the membership from the unnecessary sacrifice. The men were advised to remain at work, and after they had suspended work, were again urged to return. No other position could officially be taken by those charged with the administration of Labor's affairs.

However, running true to fornl, those who advocated the strike and set themselves up as real liberators of the down-trodden masses, are now trying to convince their followers that failure was due to the Internationals not giving support to the difficulty.

When the strike was called, vote was being taken by all organizations to determine a strike action. The leaders of the fiasco knew this and und<lrstood very well that no general suspension of work would result from their orders. However, this fact did not deter them in their pursuit of publicity and self-aggrandizement. It is our judgment that it will be some little time before the railway employees will again become willing victims of irresponsible. agitators.

Editor: We elected our delegates to the Inter

national Convention on the last meeting night in July anil you can rest assured that they are real live wires, their names are as follows: John R. 'Villiams. John A. Boland, Murray L. Brush, who we expect to give good accounts of themselves, their services in the past demonstrating the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers first, last and always, we will leave them here for the Delegates to judge them oy their actions at the convention,

Continuing about our returned Soldiers and Sailors, Happy Jimmy has arrived from off the high seas and he is continually jabbering about the Gobs, and the PoopDeck but what he thinks and says about some of the officers is as follows---we were afraid to write it so you will have to use your own inference. anyway he is looking fine and we are glad to have you home again Jimmy, Banker Beach has also arrived home from the Navy he says it is worse than being a member of Local Union No.5, had to go to school all the time qualifying as a first class electrician, but while a member of Local Union No. 5, he only had to go to school during th" school term and then <lrew a vacation, in the Nayy no vacation that's the differencp. Curtis Sloan returned from one year's service overseas and he sure is looking fine. The business agents old mechanician returned from overseas and you ought to hear him raving about airplanes he says that their company's last official act in France was the dissembling of Eddie Rickenbacher's plane and shipping same to Washington to be placed in the National Archives,> they had a fine trip on the waters but he did not like the service they were pla"ed at on their arrival at Mineola, the English used them for anchors for the R. 34, he claims that his arms were stretched one inch in the performance of the above service, Thomas Sharp we are glad to have back again with us even though you were used as an anchor by the English, Mellon and Spreat are now sorry that they did not accompany you, .John Prince says that army life is great especially with the light artillery but they had an awful strenuous time trying to keep up with the Infantry (when they started, nothing could stop them) and of course .Johnny and his outfit had to Iickety-split after them or get lost in the grand shuffle. We understand he gave a good account of himself before the finish, Our good old third base nlayer arrived home this week, Tom Prendergast, but he has as yet not shown up around the office. We think he is making up for lost time with his best girl. How about that Tom. W. Herr enjoyed himself so immensely at our picnic that he is eagerly looking for a return engagement, keep your eye on u~ Billie for the next one will be even better than the first one, you should have seen Bob .Jenkins at that feed table It would have done your h"art ~ood. E. Pollitt was having the time of his young life, still with the smile that will not fade Sam Walp had a great time of it trying tn keep our musically inclined boys from copping the accordion, the only one he left

handle it was .Jack Williams and we are not sure yet whether he took an awful long chance with Jack or not. Bob Pounder pulled one over a short while back, he now has a running mate for life and safely anchored in a bungalow on the Harmony Line where he leads the simple life after dark, our good wishes are with you Bob. McCloskey has been married for about one year and he says that the only thing t.hat'R running about their house is the fence. Jake Evans says that the Local Union should have their picnics a little more often, we feel the same way about it Jake. Jack England you looked a fright in the picture, If some person was to see you they would think that you were at a bull fight. John Quincy Adams "'as there in .all his glory and by all reports he was sure enjoying himself. Dixie Wynn was having an awful time with the galloping dominos going after then in his B. V. D.'s. Elmer Schenk looked like 11(> could stand to attend a picnic once every week, he was hav· ing the time of his life. 'Vilfred Pabst we were glad to Ree th!' way that YOU behaved and hope that you will continue Oll same.

Editor: I appeared before the board of explana

tion and verbally gave reasons for. not having the usual contribution in last 'month's Journal. Being vacation time, I thought the readers nepded a rest and some sister local would fill the space, especially some of our new ones who we would like to see grow to mighty oaks. It's an inspiration to us to hear of the good work many of these locals are doing and reminds many of the old war horses of our local, of the trials in organization. But we should always be ready to battle for the cause for which we unionized, and 'strive to attain greater success. We will always have that profiteering class to combat who are antagonistic to our cause, that parasite who prides himself In discovering weal, points. They credit themselves with knowing character. They only know the low depths to which It is possible to sink. They know not the heights to which the worker may rise. They desire rights and privileges to themselves that they are not willing to give to others. They have the capitalistic press in theil" favor and their side of the story illuminated above that of the worker who must. pay the advertising rate if he wants the public to know the facts. To combat our enemies is like pushing a feather bed at one end. it bulges up at the other. push in the middle and up she goes at both ends. It's a mighty hard job to keep It all down but let's get together and organize that we may triumph over the greatest difficulties.

Our B. A. Bro. Irving Knott. was presented with a bealitiful tie pin and culT links by the elevated electrical wOl'kprs. as a token of their esteem and apprecia.t1oa for the able manner in which he presented their new wage agreement. Needless to say the boys were satisfied with liberal increase. In fact all companies, with a few exceptions have granted increases and that helps a little toward the H. C. L. The


city job was the moet difficult. But after t\\.()' weeks of arbitration. during which time a strike was threatened. and the employes grew more or less uneasy on account of the sllence prevallln«. a special meeting of the city men was called. Our B. A. gave a detailed report. also his experience of the previous days which could be 'entitled. "The Trials and Tribulations of a Business Agent." All agreed it was enough to lead one toward a padded cell. In fact he was destined by some of our honest politicians to be the victim. But Boscoe beat them at their own game and was the victor. Even It some one did row the boat so clos~ to shore that he jumped out and took toward the tall timber for a day. Even Ma Bell snd the light and power co. shook the moth balls out of som dough and administered several small doses about a month apart. And they diagnosed the case well. for if an employe of theirs should receive a raise In pay all In one do.'e he might be distracted with joy from the shock. or die so Ruddenly that a pulmotor could not revive him. Besides It·s so pleasant to live In the future and not in the present. The present scale of wages range from '6.75 to $8.00 a 44-hour week. 'A II overtime double. 'Ve have received these raises without breaking any agreements and if all trades were as fair to the contractors as Local No. 9 and our sIster Local :-<. 134. we would not have an army of mechanics locked out in Chicago today. If we reach an agreemf'nt with a contractor. with a higher rate of pay. an" If he has som\: work ('ontracted under the old scale. he may finish the job at tha' rate. Therefore he does not sufTer any finan('lal loss. By being business like we are given any thing within reason. But woe be unto him who may rub It in "That is. try to." Now please excuse me for throwing hot house plants at our local. but you see that happens to be the press secretary's duty.

'Ve have, a few on the hiring line. So brothers of the Rolling Rtone Roclety. we will do the best we can If you happen thi" way.

M. Kleine & Son. maker~ of linemen's tools, don't seem to be 'nKlein'd to b~ fair to organized labor, judging from their attitude toward their fartnry help who arE' at this writing out on strike.

Our trE'a"urer, Bro. Lnmping. would look better facing the audience I'm sure. And Boscoe would Improve his B. A, report by beginning it on some other job besides the cltv. Outside of that there are no complaints, I am,

Editor: Lo('al No. 12 Is progressing nicely and

we ,wi"h to nntl1'y ,,11 Inn~l~ t" that effect. Labor Day parade went off without a hitch. The greatest parade eVE'r hE'ld In this city. The elp('triclans turned out fine. 'Ve h,vl one hundred and twpnty-five In parade. All labor crafts represented. Something over seven thousand in line. The Steel :Mills turnpd out almo"t to a man. As it was the first time that the company ha" recognized Labor Day and allowed their men to tllke nart h"t Br'lthf'rs. It is the first time the ml\1s has been organized and they stand between 80 And 85 at present and ('oming In every day. The men in the mills are satisfied and have no rpal grievance with the r:. F. & T. Co. a~ they have "howed a good spirit all around and maiority of men !>Plipve that the C'lmpanv will 'sign the agreements when presented They feel that the company should have the agref>mpnts before thpm the same as the U. S. Steel and as they have taken

the strike vote, they wish to give theIr employers a chance to sign. We are not aware at present how the vote went. but we do know that out of 2.300 votes cast, there was only 3 men voted against a strike and that Is only part of the votes. 'Vould like .0 notify the Denver Local that our agreements all round with inside and outside men has been very fine and we have received good conditions. The Traction Co. gave their linemen a better working ('ondltion last week than is obtained anywhere In the Middle West. We ask for schedules from siater locals but their secretary must hsve been out of town, anyway, the linemen got what they wanted.

Our delegates, Bros. Carlson and Clee start Thursday, II th for New Orleans and we expect to open our charter on that date and catch some of the cranemen that Is at the stpel mili, who Is drifting away to the engineers and this convention should settle that question as to who they belong to, the electrical branch or the engineers.

Editor: Brothers, Greeting-One of the most es

senlial alld ditflC'lIIIY. al"o the most vital. harassing and distressing factors in the trade union and labor movement, is the Inactive. the non-interested member, the stay at home. Home under ideal Industrial conditions Is undoubtedly the proper pl!lce to r,.create, to enjoy the society of WIfe and family. but there is such a word as duty. and it Is Imperative, and It Is unloyal dishonest and in many cases selfish sp\F-inlere8ts that 151 the cause of the nonattending member. It is an established and a s('lentific fact that the human animal is the one In all the animal kingdom that makes the most mistakes in regard to his or her duty. often injuring themselves. their family, their brothers. or the lahor movement by their lack of cooperation at the proper place and time.

Duty demandR and exacts tribute from pvery human being. Are you doing your duty? You can't gP.t away from it unles", you or yours suffer the consequences. You should know or realize that even your presence Is an Inspiration to the faithful. Your help a boost. the boost a favor conferred on yourself as well as on all humanity. Especially is this applicable when the favor. boost or duty is rendered In the Interests of the Union or labor movement. In respect to the nonattending L. U. No. H, we will be compelled to initiate the plans In operation by L. U. Jfi5. Oklahoma City, and make them pay for staying away. Now for the non-union smart alexs with yellow stripes on their thinking apparatus.

Duty there Is calling in clarion tones on the non-union man. It's voice is heard in every corner of the civilized world, e,'en the uncl\'i1izE'd, even the Ignerant, despised savage knows tl>at In union there Is strength. and he hastens to join his fellow workers and do his duty even though he dies for It. And this Is a lesson that the savage has taught the more educated and civilized people ot all nations. 'Many times to their sorrow. cost and chagrin. But experience teaches and those who were unscrupulous and had no conscientious feelings and had a handkerIng for fame and fortune, took advantage of knowledge gained and introduced by stages what Is known as the profit svstem and has maintained It through thick anil thin, although it has cost untold m1l110ns In lives, destruction and the


present sufferinlr ot humanity, and it Is now held together not alone by the undJvidual, the company, corporation, trust, but monarchs, kingdoms, republics, etc.

And that Is what you are up against, Oh you non-union working man. Hasten to join your craft union, that you may do at least a part of your duty, that you may help to hasten the day when you will not be exploited by the Rockefellers and the other fellows, that you and your children may have some few of the comforts and luxurlel!l In their and your lives, and the sooner you Join the union the sooner you do a part of your duty and be less severely exploited. And yet In return a more just compensation for your labor, more adequate home making faculties,

-where that home will be a joy and be blessed by comforts, love and happiness, or will you continue on In the same blind ignorant Insane lines of procedure that you are now following If you are not a dunce or a dotard and consult the sciences pertaining to life, liberty and happiness, you will find that It Is getting harder and harder for the majority of working men to maintain a decent standard of home conditions. That being the case, there is the surety of worse and even harder conditions. How do you find them; how will your children find them. How would you like to share the fate of your brother. the Mexican peon, ot our Sister Republic, our neighbor.

Do you know that it Is through the Influence and power of the union and labor movement that you and I are not on a par with the Mexican peon in every particular except nationality. ,Vould that mean anything to you individually or col-lectively. -

Do you know that it Is through organized labor that you are getting the walres and conditions that the company Is forced to pay you. It Is not for any love of you or that you excel In work and surely It is not that your good looks or winning ways Impress them. 0, no! But you can rest assured that It Is forced to concede through the preasure brought to bear trom the present exlstfng labor organizations. And you, Mr. JIron-union man what are you doing? Shirking your duty. Where Is your conscience. ,Vhat will a man or woman who Is doing their duty think of the slacker. Oh, you say the union Is all right. It It was run right the principal Is right, but thanll< you, come In, you are welcome. We are glad to have your help, and we can soon eliminate the it and with your talent and assistance It can be run In a progressive and right manner.

Edltllr: To relieve our Financial Secretary. who

Is also our Press Secretary, I will attempt to let the Brotherhood at large know what we are doing here in the great metropolis, New York City, the home of old Local No. 20.

,Vel\ Brothers, It Is gratifying to say since Local 20 has opened her charter she has more than <,ome unto her own. Tt seems uob"lIe'-able, but we are taking new members in so fast that we really can't handle the rush of business. Just think "ery nearly 300 new members In a little o,'er th ree weeks, and the hest part of it al\ is we have just begun and where we will "top no one <'an tell. Of cour"e these new members are not all linemen. They cons\!"t of sub-station operators, Inside constru<'tlon men. helpers. ground men antl linemen. Oh. I tell yOU It Is ju"t wonderful to see them all just clamoring

to join us. An., better than that moat. all the companies here about have raised the wages without us asking them.

Now can you imagine what the outcome will be, when the local goes to these d11'terent companies with our demands. I tell you Brothers It has taken many, many years to try and make conditions around New York for as has been said before Local 20 has about the hardest corporations to try and do business with as you will tlnd anywhere In this United States. But thank goodness things will be different trom now on. Yes much different. and it will be as the popular song goes. Just wait and see. The G. O. has detailed Brother Phil Reeves as an organizer In this district and the fruits ot his labor are now bearing fruit. Also that old war horse, Brother Ernie Winkler, who Is our Recording Secretary, has been doing big with his organizing campaign, and a great deal of credit is do him. for -we must admit it was Ernie who really started this wonderfUl drive.

Work around here has started to pick up again. Not much more war work, but a few contract jobS here and there, and right now we can happily say all our Brothers are working. Our big sister local No. 3 put about a dozen of our members to work on permits on a couple ot her jobs, and we are very grateful to them for doing such. Brother Joe Gause has been elected delegate to the convention. Would kinder like to hear Joe down there wehn he makes his spiel, as he sure is a fixer of the first water.

Now for our Ex-Board. Well to tell the truth they are so busy we really don't know we have an ex-board. for they have not been able to get Into a meeting for two meeting nights now. Taking care of the new members is taking all their time.

Brother Smoke Taylor blew In from ViI', ginla the other night and gave the boys a fine little talk, and you know what that means, for Smoke can shoot it straight from the shoulder.

Well, I don't know much more at this writing that would interest the Brothers~ Only just one more word. Don't try to light around here without that paid-up ticket. for you won't last long enough to bother getting yourself a job.

Wishing the entire Brotherhood the same success Local 20 is now enjoying. I remain,

Fraternally yours. F. Rap.

Editor: Another month has rolled by In the

fourth city without so very much trouble, except -at our last meeting, and It didn't amount to so very much outside of a few of the Brothers gelting paned out.

I stated in the last 'Vorker of the walkout we had with the two Tel. Cos. 'Veil I will try and explain what De Bell tried to shove on some of the Brothers while the trouble was on here. The cable which furnishes the City Hall was cut during the latter part of the strike. and there is no doubt in my mind but what the tlnchs of the Bell did the job themselves trying to mal(e some Union man suffer for the blame If could be framed up. 'Veil the following day they had a gang of about one hundred splicing the cable up and some of the city employs entered the City Hall a" that happens to he the main offi<'e, when receiving ordera. And when lea "ing after re<'ei\'ing "ame, whereas arrested on a charge of consplracv ag-ain thp ~(")\'''rnrYH''nt find \vpre -held on- fifteen thou,;aTld dollar" baP. but were released as Qul('kly as said ball coultl be gotten. The men were as innocent as Tom


Mooney, but that is the way it goes. You know that money talks and the Bell has the money it seems, especially when it comes to a case of this kind. We were able to secure a real lawyer and the Brothers are freed unless they try to frame something else on them.

No. 39 has a membership of about five hundred with the fioating element and most of the boys that sailed the sea Is back and will say that the condition wasn't much better than before they left. Who should answer for that? We that reaped the harvest I think. Well, will say that every one seems to land on the C. E. I that wishes to, while touring through.

I have explained about all the best I could. Will call It quits. Hoping this passes the censor will close. I remain as ever,

W. I., Press Sec'y.

L. V. 1'1"0. 45, BUFFALO, 1'1". Y.

E~i~~r a few lines to let you know that the Penna boys I told you of last month are now 100 per cent and so are all the other railroads.

The Depew and Lancaster job is four ways on the company. I stated two ways in last month's "\Vorker. This is necessary as it is hard to find eating places.

The Donner Steel is doing some work but the boys wont go near them because a bunch of us left there last Spring, because of unfair treatment. They have had sizzer bills all summer and now when it comes to handling high tension stuff they are looking for mechanics.

The -employment agent at this plant has Rtrirt ord~rs not to hire a cardman.

Well Brothers what will they do for us at the convention? I hope everyone has a good time, but hope too that they do some real business.

I do not think much of this scheme to divide ourselves into out",ide and Inside Internationals. Let us stay as we are, it gives us the greatest strength.

On some railways there are barely enough men to have a mixed organization, so what would they do if divided?

Let us not forget that great saying, "In Unity ther is Strength."

Yours fraternallY, R. W. Zimmerman.

Ed4~~~:k it is about time to drop a few lines to let the Brothers know that L. U. No. 53 is still on the map and progressing

fin111 the Brothers are working at present and work seems to be plentiful. The two Light Companies are dOing quite a bit of work and working Quite a bunch of m"n. The two Telephone Companies are stilI gptt1ng by with a few card men and a big bunch of Company men.

The wages are pretty fair here, but nothing extra. Light Foreman, $6.00;

.Linemen $5.52; Helpers <4.00; Telephone Foreman '550; Linemen U 75; Cable splicers. $6.00; eight hours. time and one-half fOr o\'ertime and double time for Sunday and all holidays.

We have presented an agreement to the two Light Companies for an Increase In wages and better working conditions. The Companies have taken no action on it yet. but with the aid of the two fi",htin~ l"l~hmen, International Organizer, Bro. Hugh S. O'Nell1. and Local Business Agent Jack Cronin. we expect a fair settlement.

We have elected Brother John 'Vade as the Delegate to th" National Convention. at New Orleans. Brother Wade Is an old and staunch supporter of L. U. No. 53 and

deserves the honor bestow I'd upon him. The Local thinks him capable of handling our affair down there, for when Jack gets a chew of granger In one side of his jaw and starts spitting they will all sit up and take notice for "Old Jack" will sure tell them a few things.

The Labor Day parade In Kansas City was a huge success. There were about 40.000 men In line and the Employer's Asf!ociation's eyes were sticking out as they stood along thl' streets and watched the real men march by. The Electrical Workers were well represented. L. U. No. 124 was almost 100% strong and L. U. 53 was over 90 % and 'he fixtUre hangers and rallrc,ad local was well represented so we made a nice showing. The weather was Idpal and no one kicked on hiking the five miles over the busy streets while the fair maidens cheered us on our way.

Brother James Hannon who was severely burned about the. face and arms on Aug. 18th, by a fiasp from 6600 volts, Is getting along fine and was out of the house for the first time on Labor Day.

Brother Buddy Hines blew In a couple of weeks ago from the coast and made onite an interesting talk to the Brothers at the last meeting. Buddy is an old card man and has been gone from Kansas City about 12 years. but. he still has a large number of friends left here and they all we·lcome him back.

Brother Darr is still as noisy as ever and between him and Brother Zink they keep something stirred up all the time. But that is what we want, something to think about and attend meetings to find out about.

Business Agent, Jiack Cronin is still On the job of lining UP candidates and there isn't a meeting goes by, but what he has from 4 to 10 candidates to Initiate.

The attendances have been good but they will be better when we assess each member 50 cents for not attending two meetIngs a month. A lot of members hate to pay an assessment and they will flock up th£·re so thick and with our members we will have to rent a larger hall.

Well Brothers I have about had my little say so I will ring off and leave room for some one else.

Wishing the I B. E. W. and all its members all the luck and success.

I remain. Jos. Cloughby, P. S.

Editor: Another month has rolled around, and

Local Union No. 60 is still on strike. holding out as strong as ever for the closed shop. So far as the wages are concerned, the contractors came near enough to our demands so that we were willing to compromise to the extent of meeting them on that point; but when they insisted on keeping their rats, and said we must return to work along side of these vermin. we ualked, and are determined to work in clean shops or stay out altogether. As I stated in previous letters, and In the appeal which we sent out, the Open Shop Association Is at the bottom of the fight on the contractor's side. and were it not for this we could easily settle with some of the shops, and let th" others go rat for life if they wish. Before the first of June, when our new contract was pending, some of the shops had already agreed to meet our nllw demands Without a hitch; but at the. v"!ry last moment the Open Shop As~oclatlon got after them and drew them Into the fight, against their will. and has hel~ them in It ever since, virtually com~~l~n~ a locl{-out where it was not wanted

We did not wish to draw the other building trades crafts into the fight If we could help It, and carried on the strike

WORKERS AND OPERATORS . 83


practlca.l1y alone for over two months: but when the hand of the Open Shop meddlers was so plainly shown. we saw that we had a fight on our hands that was of greater proportions than any we had antlcillated. and since the opposing forcE'S WE're so firmly organized against us. and knowing that our defeat meant a harder fight for the others when their turn came. we callpd for the united support of all thE' building trades crafts. and things are shaping up now to the point where we can bring pressure to bear on the Open Rhop Association from all sides. The fact that other Texas cities pay a higher scale In nparly all trades than does Ran Antonio. makes It hard to keep the best mechanics here even under normal conditions. alld few of the men who wal!, oIT In our support are Idle any length of time If th('v ('are to take jobs In other cities. Of course this is not the be~t alternath'e we could wish for. It would be mUl'h bptter if all the mpn who walk off could stay here and help fight the thing to a finish: but to relieve the situation. and show the Open Shoppers that we are not altogcthpr rlep('ndent on them for a living. many of our own members. and also some of the other crafts. have left town for the time being. and It is only natural that the law of supply and demand will make Itself fplt In the ranks of the contractors as much as anywhere else. They even ha\'e difficulty in getting. scabs to come here for the low wage they wish to pay, and wl",n It eomps to getting a compet''"t scab for any such money. the scabs simply are not there. Most of th"m who make a profession of this nefarious business are at IPaRt wise enough to know that It is easy money when they have the contractor at their Jllercy. and If he Is not willing to eome across with the jits. abollt all he ('an E'Xpect is It few porcelain crushers from the tank towns down the line. and what these do not know about the gamp is enough to keep the herdprs aWal,e night" worr)'lng about. Meanwhilp, we are going ahead with our lit tIe rnlon Rhop. getting more business every day, and it all helps to carryon the fight.

We are glad to say that we have already recehed a number of an"wers to the appeals which we rE'cpntly sent out. and belipve me. It sure helps to ha ve !'ome money coming in. \\'e hope all Loral" who can will send something. for after thrf'e months we nef'd it. "'e sln(,prply thank all those who ha\'e been so prompt In remit ting, and enclose list acknowledging l5ame.

For the Information of the Brotherhood. I want to say that "0 far we ha\'e lost only three members on ae-count of the strike. Thp"e are G('ne Zoller. Da \'e KriRh. and John Lott. These men considerpd money above principle, and wpnt to work for Martin Wright on the HOI·dpr. TheIr cards ha\"e bpen re\"ol,ed and sllb",'antlal fines placed against them In ca"e thpy ever try to get cards again. Full details have bepn sent In by the Financial Secretary. and will be found on another page of the Worker.

Labor Day paRsed oft In San Antonio In great shape. The parade was a feature long to be rememherpd a" all org'~lIizatlons wpre r!'nresentpd In great!'r numbprs than ever before. and several new organizations wpre represpnted for thp first time. Seventy of our members participated. which we considpr,·d good in \ iew of thp fact that a number were out of town. and unable to be prespnt. To those who c01l1d not be hpre. I wish to Ray that we 'old It to the "Open Shoppprs" in plain and forcible lanlntage. by mpana of special hannprs. whleh were carried by the members: These banners seem to h"a\'e made a hit with the enltor of the RAn Antonio Light. for he published the whole IOmear verbatim. so to speak. in his newspaller. This

was fortunate for U8. in case any of the Open Shoppers were at home siek of the palsy. or an attack of the gout. for It gave them a chance to read and weep in the privacy of their own homes. even though they were denied this opportunity of relieving their pent up emotions In 1lUbllc. I am spndlnll( a picture of our dl"play under separate cover. and I request that on account of us being on strike It be given a full page In the Worker. We want the membership to see for themselves that we were there.

With b<,,,t wishes to all, I am Fraternally.

sympathy with the linemen did in no way change the linemen's situation. The strike is still on. We are in the fight just as we were the '11 th day of 1<farch, when we came off the' job.

As the Texas Power & Light Company acquired new franchises and new properties In the oil fields, our men are right there also to see that the work does not "progress." Would ask linemen to pay no attention to any advertisements in newspapers for linemen for Texas as there are no linemen wanted on fair jobs in North Texas.

Editor: The men whose names follows below,

of that low bred skunks commonly called scabs, these YELLOW SKUNKS, and others of the same breed are of a low type animal, that thanks to the law, and law abiding citizens that maintains a closed season on them. Roam at large on this fair earth of ours wearing the clothing of, and masquerading as men. But on investigation it is easily found out that this tribe of misfits haven't the least small part of man In their make up.

One version as to the origin of scabs is that when God made man He had a fe'w odds and ends and useless debris left that He threw away, and the Devil came along and found the pile of junk and made of it an imitation of God's work. But there was one important that the Devil couldn't find any of in the junk pile, and that was brains. so the Old Boy called it a day and turned his Imitation of man loose on the \Vorld and named It scab. These skunks that are below. scabbed during the recent telephone strike when the employees of the local telephone companies both male and female. struck to gain' the rights of American citizens. to do anything that they wish to do that Is morally and legally right. that was to organize as trade unionists. and that is both morally and legally right.

Someof th,,~e scalls were imported in here from other places. and have since been returned from whence they came, the local oneR are <'(ill in our midst and it behooves us brothers to watch out for these birds, and when we meet them, well and good union brother knows how to treat a scab.

All set brothers here are the skunks' names. and paste the list In your hat so you wont forget them:

The imported ones from Chicago: H. Boyd, splicer; David E. Olson. splicer

(former member of Local No. 134); Lee Smith, splicer: Carson. foreman.

The Cleveland scabs are: Jack Flynn: A. Mulhern; Chas. ~oho-

neck; L. Miller; Wm. Scanlon; all spl1cers Helpers: Lam bert, MaMahon. Foremen: Swaine. Sid Martin. R. Vaughn, Rojen

sky. Eddie Fortune. The above ones are just from the cable

dept. There were oth",. "nl''' on the job both male and female kind. but the press secretaries of the other locals will have to supply the names as I haven't a complete list of them all.

Hoping' Mr ~~di'''- that Y"" will get this in the next Worker so the brother"

may know who and what these skunks art' I beg to remain.

Editor: . I will take great pleasure III writing a

letter to the Worker this time as it seems as if our regular Press Secretary overlooked his letter last month and may do the same this time, but we won't take any chances.

I am b' I a d to say No. 84, is getting along just fine. We always keep going up the hill. We are taking in eight and ten new members every Thursday night, and we most always have good attendance. It seems as If the majority of our membership always take an interest in the Local and help to convey it along. Of course Its true we have some drawbacks, but just a few.

The inside wiremen of 84 bas asked for a separate charter but the vote of the local tabled it until after the return of the delegates from the convention. the local decided it could better be disposed of at that time than now. however. we regret very much to lose the inside wiremen and up to this time we have always gotten along fairly well with the exceptions of some few things but if the local sees fit to give them a charter. I am sure the majority of 84 will wish them all the success possible and will also give them help if necessary. We had a parade here Labor Day. it was a great success and in fact was the finest Labor Day parade ever staged in Atlanta. The Building Trades Council won the first prize and the Electrical \\Torkers, Local 84, won the second.

In the afternoon at Lakewood Park was the Labor Day exercises and races of all kinds and at night fire works. So everybody had a real nice time and the Labor Day wound up as a great success, so ] am positive that organized labor in this town feels proud of Itself after the many gains it has made but there are many other thing'S yet to be done. we have our bitter blind folded enemies like all other places but year by year and day by day we are overcoming a lot of them and are making good friends In their places.

\Ve are glad to say at this time that the Building Trades EmploYE'rs Association is practically put out of business and we feel sure of closing up with the rest of the contractors within another month, making this place a hundred per cent closed town. .

Well I am glad to say regardless of the association of some n,,11 emplo~'prs. we are still taking in the trimmers and electrical workers in our local just the same and bere's hoping' every local In the brotherhood whE're Mother Bell has got any more are doing the same thing.

And I just want to state this before closing If there was ever a case of Industrial autocracy practiced In Industry that association of company employees organIzed by the company Is one of them. therpfor that Is not the democratic form of collective bargaining that appeal!!! to me and [ can·t be for it. Wishing the brotherboo(l much success at the New Orleans Convention and hopIng much good work will' be done. I remain,

Beach on Lake Ontario, Saturday, Aug. 2. Local Rochester, met the brothers coming from Butralo and Syracuse at the N. Y. Central Depot. Chartered cars were waitlng which later were on their way to the picnic grounds. The picnic was a great success, and will cause greater co-operation between the three locals which has been minus between locals of the I. B. E. W. in the past.

International organizer Broach of the West happened to be around this part of the country, and came to the picnic with the boYS from Buffalo. It was only pr.oper for an organizer when amongst the rank and file to be called on for a speech which Brother Broach gave. The opinion of the brothers in regards to the western organizer, were that he is very much a live wire, a high tension organizer, who keeps pace with the present. and forgets past history. I am sure the members of Local Rochester. Buffalo and Syracuse will wish to see Brother Broach often as he will instill a new spirit in our locals.

Quite a few electrical contractors attended our picnic, which tends to show good feeling employer and men, and that capital is really taking an interest in labor. May they be more of such meetings.

We had a programme of sports with prizes given, the writer cannot give the base ball score, or all the winners the writer does remember that our business agent, O'Connell. did run off with the grand prize, which was won by throwing a base ball the greatest distance. a very simple feat for Brother O'Connell whose energy is not taxed by working for some contractor who insists on a fair day's work.

Things are going along in a quiet way for Local 86, no excitement, so we must focus our minds on other organizations. The clothing workers optical workers. canning workers, and other workers In Rochester are in a state of unrest, and trying to organize at the present, these workers seeing other workers getting $6.00 ami $7.00, are feeling that they should get an increase with better conditions. have begun to strike as a protest against the weekly wage they receive which averages about $16.00 to $18.00.

In the masons and plasterflrg organization there is more unrest, the International of this organization or one of its officers is insisting on the local union, discharging the business ag-ent. which they refuse to do. unless he be given a trial and found guilty. The sympathy and good will of union men, of Rochester, are with this union. Eastman Kodak are erecting an office building In this <'ity. which will be strictly built by union labor, they are also building at Konak Parl<. there is a question of an open shop on this job. this work should be done by union labor or not at all, no compromise.

Editor: Well. 107 has not been mentioned In the

Journal for a while but they are going along in pretty good shape considering that we are alI on strike here for 85c and closed shop conditions and if the brothers stick out as firm as the past two weeks we will get the desired results. This I" a cheap town but organizations are getting Into line this year. If they would only get down to business as our brothers In Detroit h~"e none in the paRt seven or eight ypars we can make them corne to time only it will be a little more difficult here as the fighting spirit Is often lacking when most needed. The building trades

here can stand for a change as to affiliations of the different trades and to win strikes here; by all going out on the same dny and agreements to terminate at the same time. Hartford. Conn. trades unions have had good success and pulled that town out of the cheap labor rut but back bone Is needed to win and if No. 107 don·t fight this time and pull out ahead just put this town down as the last resort for a fixer to tryout. All traveling brothers are requested to layaway from this town for the present as the strike is a ways from being settled. Bro. Organizer Broach is expected here and hopes for his early arrival as he could handle the affairs here satisfactory and save a lot of wrangling that may come up. Well best wishes t. all the brothers and may the convention turn out to the satisfaction of all.

Hear Is a line from No. 109 to let you know that the Central Union Telephone Company has not run us out of the Twin Cities. Had a grand turn out today (Labor Day), with almost 12,000 in the line of march, and I can say that the most attention was the striking operators, two hundred girls of 166A. Up to date not one has gone back. Thirty-seven members of 109 are still out and can say all are standing pat. They are getting strike benefits all tlie way from $6.00 to $15.00. Brothers It Is a strike that we can not lose and we are not trying to lose it. I just heard that they were having a riot in front of the Central Union Tel. Co. at 12.15 and It was 12":30 when we broke ranks in the parade, so It wasn't any of the members of 166A or 109 linemen, but I suppose it will be layed on to them. I would sooner think It was the Telephone Company themselves as the par>tne m>trched around the Telephone Building and gave the rates the welcome. As to linemen. stay away, as the C. U. Tel. Co. is unfair and we are not going to furnish them with light, as they have none so far. but if they do we are going to see that they don't last long around here. Since we have ha' several Brothers loafing the Light Company bas gone down in their pockets and are going to give us a raise of 60 cents which will make us 70 cents an hour. 9 hours $6 30, so it all helps for the ones that can work for them, as I look for It to be slack this winter around here. At last reports Bro. Broach Is coming here to settle the CpntrRI Uninn Telephone Company strike. Hope he does some good as we n!'ed some help from the G. 0., or we shall not be able to see our way through. I cannot think of any more news only lots of strikes around here. The Telephone Company has girls at the Rock Island Exchange. 19 working; Moline has 7 working' and East Moline 4. No linemen at all. This Is almost two months of it now and I can say some true blue girls that belong to 166A. I am for them and here is hoping that Brother Broach Is with them and a]1 the rpst of them and U. S. As Brother Broach Is expected to bfl here today. September 7th. will be able to tell you more n"ws later. With best wishes to I. B. E. W.

Editor: Just a line to let the boys know a little

.. hOllt Pt. P~l1l. Flo i'~r this spason things have gone fairly well for us and our members have been working most of the time.


The spirit ot unionism Is apparently takIng hold here In St. Paul with the wage earners of all occupations. Recently the restaurant workers put on a campaign of or~anization with the result that several restaurants were lined up and better condlttons secured. This is true with the garment workers crafts.

The Wholesale House Workers are now progressing favorably with an organization In spite of tte fart that they are meeting some opposition from their employers.

A Building Laborers Union has also made remarkable progress during the last tew months.

We have a strong Central Body known as the Trades & Labor Assembly, representing our one hundred various organizations. and It has been able to exert considerable Influence In local atrairs civic and otherwise.

We have also a well organized Building Trades Council.

A Metal Trades Council was recently forMe<1 I" emtlIal e all wu,'kers in the metal trades ot both Minneapolis and St. Paul and it Is making good headway.

We union men of St. Paul therefore teel that we ha\'e reason to be optimistic.

As Ele~trlcal Workers we are glad to see this progress as it strengthens the whole Labor Movement and will eventually react to our own welfare.

Labor Day was a big event here this year. We had the biggest turnout ever witnessed in the history ot the St. Paul Labor Movement.

Local Union No. 110 was out In full force. Twenty thousand uniOnists particIpated in the march. The Impression made on those who saw the parade was very apparent.

We will show them a bigger one next year.

end up as writer for an Electrical Journal is quite a step. I wonder many times If I a. ,lti'(>I". Of "ourse if t~e, e is a lot of work or a lot of news a fellow can keep busy with either.

The linemen for the local Light & Power Company asked for an increase and an eight hour day. They got both without any trouble. A few Informal meetings with U'e b""SAS gave them eight hours at 651' per hour.

Inside men are getting 60c to 62%c, the former however Is the scale. signed up last May.

The Local Independent Phone Company bought out Mother Bell and we now ha\'e only one Phone Company. The men over th('re are not O\'er 50 per cent in our local. ~Iost q1' tl,enl have lH'en in at sornetime or other, but for the most part, lost out tor nonpayment of dues.

\Ve are raising our dues to $1.50 per month "·it,, a 25c fine for non-attendance as heretofore.

Initiation i" $2!'i 00 for Journpymen and f1250 for apprentices. Formerly it was $25.00 for Inside men and $10.00 for Unen,en.

Our sick benefit assessment has been Increased from 25c to 50c per quartpr.

Delegates get 50c per meeting attended or a fiOc finp for non-attendance.

Next ~lInday, the 14th. we have our annual family picnic IlP the MisHlsslppl River a ways. As usual it will be a success but we won't have anything along

for snake bites. Beer will flow however but Ice is hard to get this year, due to the mild winter.

Brother Roy Hili knows where there Is a nice black bass. Brother Gibbons swears that she had young ones last spring. Well we'll get the whole family, also the neighbors If the bait holds out.

Conditions In Boston seem to be very pleasant for the telephone workers and the reaction which usually follows a strike has disappeared and things are back to normal again. \Ve are still fighting for a H-hour week which we expect will be granted shortly.

In the heat of a campaign for election to our Conference Board and as a delegate to the National Convention, one of our brother candidates loudly cried to the writer, "Believe me, when I get goln' I'll smash one ~tandpatter's slate to pieceR." A count of the votes showed that he only dented the slate-have to do better next time, "Billl"

They say that an executive board of an organization is virtually a "labor grand jury." Assuminl!' this to be a fact and having in mind that the ethics of good government maintain that a man with a biased prejudice or narrow mind should never be allowed to sit upon a jut-y, how Is the member of our executive board who made the statement that a certain officer of our local was "crazy", going to be ju~ged if Shakespeare was right when he said: "Everyone's crazy In the other one'li eyes?"

Let me think, wasn't it Kipling that said that "crazy thought usually come from crazy minds"?

The old-time friction which existed between local unions 142 and 202 of Boston Is now a thing of the past. This was best evidenced at a social gathering of the officers of both organizations last Sunday evening in the dining room of the Copley Plaza Hotel. to be exact, at 8 p. m., on September 7, 1919. The feast was the ofl'ering of President James Queeney of Local No. 202 and all expenses were defrayed by him notwithstanding the hankering of others who wanted to contribute their portional share. President Queeney delivered an oration which will inevitably go down In history as being the most forcible speech ever uttered before a labor body. He sele(·t d a" ~is "",hjPct. "Harmony with thine brother", and brought out very clearly the importance of understanding each other. He frankly admitted that all past differences between he and officers of Local 142 were due to misunderstandings. "It was only a short time ago that I had the honor of presenting a stone to our worthy International president, which goes to prove to you that the days of throwing stones have passed" he eloquently said. Bro. George L. Kelley was the guest of the evening and was seen Sitting at the head of the table with Pres. Queeney. The tears brought' forth by Pres. Queeney's impressing remarks furnishl'd the ice water (eyes water) for the evening. Th,. affpi~ N'n<"l"rlpd w'th " dUI,t hy Messrs. Queeney and Kelley who sang a little love ditty entitled. "If we can't he the same old sweethearts, then let's be the same old pals." By permission of Prps. Queeney the full text of his remarks will be published In next month's Worker.

"'Ve believe that there should bs a great many changes made In SePtcmb"r, \\ h"n all the local nelegates get together at N<'w Orleans." There's no doubt >\bollt It, Pueblo, and take It from me, that thEo)e wiII be some changes and perhaps 142 will come In for their share, who know'!!

Ona change that No. 12, Pueblo Buggests is that the electrical bodies all over the UnIted States take a hand In politics and see that honest union men get In office. "Get In office." Any hand that Isn't in politics in the Electrical Workers in Boston must be a third hand and as far as I can see they all have only two hands.

No. 34. Peoria, Ill., says that "we do not think there is a local under the sun that has anything on us." How about the shade Peoria?

Readers of the "'orker, read this carefully, then give It deep thought e~pecially this portion: "or tre Telephone Operators Dept., with us the evening of Aug. 13 a!l the weather Is warm etc." Do you get the phllo15ophy?


Boston thinks the world of ROlle Sulllvan and we want her to be treated nice out there in the West.

Boston Central Labor 11mon Kate. Gath-ered by Local 11mon 142'. Delegate.

P. Harry Jennings Agent for the Boston Central Labor Union certainly said a mouth full in making the following statement: "I believe in licking our enemies with the same weapon that they use to lick us, that is, the brain." Mr. Jennings was commenting on the Police situation in Boston.

The Boston Police Department have organized and are now a part of the A. F. of L. The Central Labor body is taking up their nght for recognition and fireworks are being fired of! right and left at every meeting of the Central Body.

One member of the Recreation Dept. of the City Boston arose at one of the meetings and started to tell us about the Pollce and ended up with telling about a conversation he had with his boss.

The Central Body has a great habit of passing motions and then talking on them afterward. Well, what's the difference, it will pass anyway.

Decorum is anything but paramount at the meetings of this body. The President is becoming to show the affects of his efforts in this connection.

Business Agent Jennings stated at the last meeting that he has tried to figure out for the past seven months how it is that news travels so quickly from the meetings. 1 would like to ask Mr. Jennings If he is still lingering over this terrible problem? There being no password, and no way of telling who is who, does anybody wonder at news travellingget busy Mr. Business Agent!

It would be a good idea for the powers to be in the Central Body to request speakers to address the delegates from the front of the hall and not have us twisting our necks around trying to get what the speaker Is saying, in the back of the hall.

It is hoped that some kindhearted delegate will bring delegate Flynn of the New"paper Writers Union a chair next time he addresses the body and don't let him sit on the edge of the platform.

L. 11. :NO. 155, OKLAHOMA Cl:TY. OKLA..

Ed-ittorq: with pleasure that we can tell the electrical fraternity that we have been and are still milking progress.

Our entire forces were set to work to organize the telephone operators and we had good RllcceRS in getting them started. but am sorry to say that they are n'J taking the Interest that they should. ,V" have helpeo ::,ome of the near-by towns iT' getting th<>ir operators organizatio~s perfer.ted. Ano two of them are step\?mg 01'1' at a lively rate. Elreno has a hve and busy local. Shaw'lee has not as high per cent of orgAnization bllt they arF! game to tlle last letter. and are now aRklng t" telephone company to recognize thF!ir local and the telephone company is refusing to

do so. As a logical sequence the telephone bells have all stopped ringing in Shawnee town.

The business men and the citizens in general held a m8.8S meeting and after some good talks, the publics feeling and attitude was very agreeably shown by their contribution of some $700.00 and this was in addition to some $6,000.00 donated and pledged by organized labor of Shawnee.

We also have some inside shops and. their wiremen that we are trying to get right. And we are reporting that they are getting right. Our team that are principals in hanollng the situation are Mr. Young, a wireman and an all round live wire, and Mr. Palmer, the president of the building and trades council. And at this writing they have 8 out of 10 shops lined UP. ano we feel that chances a,'., very favorable for the remaining two to come In. Mr. Young gets the agreements signed, in other words he climbs the plum tree and gives it a shake and we pick up the plums. 'Ve are getting from three to a dozen applications per meeting night. We feel that if the applications come In any faster we will need an application secretary.

Aesop Is given credit in his fablps centuries old for the original use of the phrase "If we stand together we are strong. by ourselves we may fall." This was told of the four oxen that were attacked by the wild beasts and they are said to have a~reed that if they would stand with their tails together and their horns ready for defence they could survive. But wrapped In the moral of the fable lies the success we are having lining up the inside contractors. Our local alone could not have done what we are now getting done. 'Ve are having able, valuable and welcome support of the building and trades council. N. I. Summers,

Editor: A few llnes to the brotherhood from

L. U. 184. Our Labor Day celebration is now over which was a great success. All labor unions had a fair turn out for the parade which was the biggest In the history of organized labor In the city of Galesburg, every local union except the telephone operators were represented. They were given the best plac in the third division at the head of it, with the electrical workers followings. Being newly organ'Ized they either got cold feet or were too proud to march. Out of a local of 85 members only four showed up, thereby hurtin", their self in the eyes of the public, as well as the other locals. If they were too proud to march, I wonder if they will have enough back bone a year from now to fight for a raise in wages and direct their own tight which was handled this last time by the editor of the Labor News and !trothers of L. U. 184. Time will tell. To get back to the celebration, after the parAde all the wage slaves assembled at HlghlaT'd Park for the rp.Rt of the day. Mi"" O'Rlley of the Teachers Fedp.ratlon of Chicago being the principal spt'aker of the day. gave a very fine talk which was f'ninvl'O by all. Some one shoved a ~2 pistol Into my hands. "Bro. Wisson I think," and says, "You are the fall guy. I will ,,,,,I{e rOll offit'iAI sta~ter of thp~e grand and glorious races." S'lme job. but guess e\'en'body was satisfied. As I got home all together. 'Vork is not rushing here at this timp the telpphone put on a ('ouple new men lately and al1 the hr{)thers both In"lde and out are workln"" but have not heArd any call for any extra help so far. I see Lieut. Col. Roosevelt has a plan to


end Boll5hevlsm, which he unloaded oft his chest a tew days ago at Chicago betore a hard working audience among whom were such laboring men as Col. R. R. McCormick, .1. Ogden Armour, .1. M. Cudahy. and a tew more I5lave drivers of note. He Is according to himselt going to have the American Legion stop it In America. Have you consulted the Legion Teddy my boy? Bolshevism means the whole or the majorIty. Will not the majority rule In this Legion or are yoU seeking to outline its policies. or will It be like the Republican party your tather led at one time. no place for a working man? Better keep still awhile, you are not the only man that fought overseas even if you are always In the papers. in big type. First thing we know you will be wanting to run for president, but that will be all just ran. Guess I have said enough tor this time, so will close b)' saying boost for the "Plumb plan" Government owned railroads.

The forenoon was just Ideal for an outing of any kind. or at least as much of it as I saw was. The day commenced at 9:30 tor me, but just about the time we had just nicely started in our baReball game, the sun hid behind a cloud and the wind commenced to blow. Someone yelled. "It's starting to rain." I think It was 81im Kaline. he's always making a noise or Bob Adams, one of those two anyway.

Well the linemen hurried and proceeded to beat It and when the sun came out again there wasn't a lineman to be found. So suming the game up, 220 won by a score ot 4 to 2. The above mentioned ball game we intended to make an annual atfalr so a sliver Trophy cup was procured before the game and this year it wlll rest in the hall of belonging to 220, and I tor one think It will stay there. That's all there Is on the picnic, the rain busted It up.

We are having a strike in the city ot about 3.000 machinists. They have been out two weeks now with no signs ot a settlement as yet.

The Electrical Workers in the Rubber Shops where most ot the machinists were employed took a vote to strike with or in sympathy with the machinists but the vote to strike did not carry. But 8 gen-

eral strike may be called by the Centra. Labor Union it I5cab machinists are 1m. ported. Well that's all tor this time, but I want Bill Berdine down In Panama to take notice to this and write a letter to old friends informing them how he finds things around the equator.

the material market at the opening ot the Beason and did not start operations until late amI in some crafts are payinl{ abo,'e the scale to secure help. This point haa not as yet been reached with the electrician and In view of lIvln&' advances our contractors will be asked to sign a ne,v agreement. The pointers are asking one dollar per hour on Oct. 1st, which makes our 82 cents look sad when the work of each is compared.

\Ve had a little rain on Labor day, which cut down the attendance of the Mutual Adomeration Society Central Labor Union) which Is likely to be put In nal'!"OW straits. Our ("entral endorsed a measure to come up In before the City Commission to enact M'unlclpal daylight Baving the national act having been killed In congress. It can be seen on every hand the good etrects of this measure and it Is to be hoped that Union Labor will endorse to have local acts passed over the entire country to otrset the action of congress. The farmer was made the goat in the request for its appeal when the real interest behind It were the electric light companies. I would like to hear from locals all over endorsing the move of the "Daylight Saving League" to go on with the good work.

Three other members paid a tine of three dollars each for not gelting in uniform and marching.

After the parade we had a basket picnIc at Lake Mi('hlgan Park. At this picnic we had a boxing and athletic show, vaudeville acts. candy wheels. merry-goround for the kiddies and everything that goes with It to make a success ot Labor

Day, the one grand day for organized 1&bor.

The Trades and Labor Council who fathered the big picniC cleared three hundred and tlfty dollars. Hoping to see this in the Worker for September, I remaia

Editor: Although we are a little late in doing

so. we will give you a bit of information for the \Vorker. In regard to the conditions at Lansin&,.

On .June 16th, 1919, at 8 :00 a. Ill., not having had any satisfactory wage adjustlllents. the employes of the Citizens Telephone Co. and the Michigan Telephone Co., both men and operators, walked of! the job, 100 per cent stron&, at the Citizens Co., and about 95 per cent at the Michigan State Co.

A I'e gular schedule of pickets was established. of two hour shifts each. and a daily parade of all striking employees was staged each day at 5 :00 p. m. in front ot both offices. After a few days of quiet, both companies commenced getting In outside help. one or two at a time. ranging from inexperienced operators to professional thugs and strike-breakers, but did not accomplish much in the way of giving service or clearing trouble.

After several conferences and inetrectual attempts to get a settlement, we secured the assistance of Organizer .J. F. Slattery and of Operators Organizer Miss Theresa Sullivan. and United States Commissioner Jas. Barrett. who, with the help of the Mayor and City Attorney, and committees of striking employes, nnaIly got a temporary settlement with the Citizens Telephone Co., which was fairly satisfactory. with the exception of wages, which were not Quite up to the original demands.

The employees returned to work as a whole on July 11th. 1919. after 2i days on the streets.

The Michigan State Co.. however. gave us very little consideration and conducted themsel ves in a manner characteristic with that, "Company's" policy in such matters. refusing to recognize the strikers as employees. and refusing to meet the United States Commissioner or make any attempt to arrive at an agreement. and no settlement has been reached at this date. nor is any in sight.

The strike Is still on at! far as that Company is concerned and Is still unfair as regards both men and operators, so every body take notice and also tell anyone who Is apt to come, or be sent t. Lansing for the Bell Company.

We lost a few members, who went back to work for the Bell and are now on the scab list. which we are mailing you with this article for publication in the Worker. Everything else is running along in pretty good shape at present and we are looking forward to a considerable increa.. ia membership in the near future.

Fraternally yours. L. F., P. 8.

Editor: First I want to say this place is 100

per cent strong, In fact we tcsted that two weeks ago. The Building Trades are all out to a man. There is nothing doing in Muskogee. Dick Long, Mgr. Traction company here, is fighting organized labor, and is running cars with "Hick" conductors and motormen. The company will be numbered with the Kaiser within the next sixty days, hardly an~'one is rid· ing there. We are not out with the car men, but are out in protest against the merchants and others, who wore the "white ribbon" the day the rats came out of their holes. This white ribbon is a bunch of merchants and Slip raisins who were herding said scales while the striking police were out. Other words the police force was out and the mayor .John \Veisner (Shadow being the Chaio Dick Long) said that the street cars would run If we have to kill all the women and children in Muskogee.

There Is a petition in circulation with over 1.000 signatures to withcall the said mayor. There is not a wire twister on the job, everybody Is out. .

The Telephone girls have asked for a charter there, the required number have signed up for charter and have come in with their dollar's and all the other operators are "rair'n to go."

Four of the charter signers have been fired since Signing, one with thirteen years experience, one with ten years, one with seven, and one with six. The company discharg-ed the m for ineffidency. The chief operator says it was because they had too much infiuence over the other girls.

We had one grand parade here. The first I think every Union man in town were in line. Some impression was made on the "white ribbon" merchants. There has been over one hundred merchants at the Building Trades meetings in the last week asking for fOI giveness for their part. They claim that they did not know that they were offending Organized Labor.

L. U, No. 384 wants to be in the Worker every month, so look for us as a regular. More news soon.

Editor: Well Brothers we have just slipped an

other month near our graves, and have you let It gO by without doing some good or do you "let George do it" and I suppose some of us have been using the hammer instead of the boost.

Well, we are back to work again after a ten day strike, and got an oITer of four cents per hour and a promiee from Wil~ son to lower the cost of living in ninety days and I guess they are starting at it by raising our hall rent from $15.00 to $22.00, so that will help some.

Oh yes, Brothers, we had a parade labor day with Brother .Jees Duncan as marshal and about all of the boye turned out except those that had automobiles. Of course I am not telling any names, and they could not walk.

Another one of our brothers, Louie Shalla. got back from the Navy the other day. who served about 18 months on the water.

It is with pride to write of 424 ae how It has progressed in the l&llt year, from a

membership of about thirty til I\. mark of eighty or over, and we expect several more In the near future.

Brother Withgott has just got back from & week's trip In the southern part of the state. and Brother Melhorn has returned from a two weeks fishing trip in the northern part of Indiana. and oh! what fish stories, a new one every day.

And now Brothers if any of you ever come to old Decatur just drop around and let's have your triendship. Hoping to see a letter from every Local this month. I remain with success to all,

O. Campbell, P. S.

L. 11. :NO. 434, DOl1GLAS. AlUZO!fA.

Editor: Having missed a couple of Issues In the

Worker, I will now take the opportunity of letting you know that 434 is still in existence and sOil holding our own.

The boys are getting together here around the smelters and mines and are getting Into the Mine, Mill. and Smelter. men's Union as fast as they can be taken in. It looks pretty good.

Since my last letter things' are prospering and men are being taken on every day in all lines. On .July 15th all mechanics got a raise of one dollar' per day, operators got a raise of seventy-five cents per day. This, of course, caused them to feel a little bit sore because mechanics got a raise of twenty-five cents over them. As you probably heard, there was a cut of one dollar per day around February' this created quite a bit of discussion and has urged the boys til get into the union more rapidly.

Like to state that at one of our re.ent meetings, since my last letter. our worth)' president Brother Wright tended his resignation to the local. due to the fact that he Is gOing to leave Douglas. and I must sa~ that all the brothers of 434 regret very much that brother Wright is going to leave, but as you all know, "Best of friends must part." Brother Parker who is line rider for the EITlgre Mining Co., succeeded Brother \Vright as president. The chief object in electing Brother Parker to the office is due to the fact that he has a nice soft job and plenty of time to be around to meet the boys and say hello to them now and then. \Ve also feel that Brother Parker will be a good booster for the local as he has the right spirit, and many friends.

Also at one of our recent meetings discussion came up regarding the election of a delegate to attend the Electrical Workers National Convention at New Orleans, and owing to the fact that our local is not fixed very well financially, we decided not to s!lnd a delegate this year.

Brother Mathews whom I spoke about In my last letter, who brOke his leg in testing out a motor. is still orr on the sick list, and at present is back east visiting his mother and father, whom he has not seen for a number of years. We understood that brother Mathews leg Is not improving very rapidly, but we are all very anxious to have him back on the job again. We hope that when he does come back that his leg will be as good II.S it was before he got it hurt.

Since my last letter. Local 434 through the vote of the local decided til change their meeting place. and are now m"eting at the headquarters of the Mine, Mill and SmelterlT'pn's Union on th" northeast corner of "F" avenue and 16th street. So boys when you come to Douglas you will find us all together. You are welcome one and all.

This is all for this time. With best wisbes to all International officers and


also to all members of the I. B. E. W. from Local 434, Douglas, Arizona. I am,

Yours respectfully, J. C. McCunnitf, P. S.

Editor: Just a note to let the Brotherhood know

that Local No. 435 although a little slow Is not by any means dead yet. Our biggest blow was that after the strike the majority of our local council otHcers went over to the O. B. U. which greatly handicapped us that remained loyal to our old affiliations, but at the railroad shops we have got busy and elected new delegates and again got our local council in workIng order.

Now one of the chief pieces of O. B. U. propaganda is that they are a cheaper show to run than the International and we are sorry to see that finance Is having an effect on some, as our old members who are at present sitting on the fence. It would be a good thing If our grand lodge could give a little assistance to members of No. 435. For Instance the machinists who are atHliated WiOl our federation are being excused paying their dues for June and July. I am afraid this. may seem a selfish request, especially as we cannot justify or defend our action In coming out on strike, but we feel convinced that a little sympathetic assistance would bear fruits In increase of membership as well as being useful propaganda. in helplne; u" t oboost our order.

Yours fraternally,

.Local 435.

L. t1. BO. 466, CH.4.BLES"rOB W. VA.

Editor: Just a few lines to let you know that

L. U. No. 466 Is still on the map after being out for 30 days. On May the first we finally got together and compromised on 81% cents per hour with a 44 hour week, and double time for all overtime, so what we lost In scale we gained in conditions as our previous agreement called for 48 hours per week and time and half for overtime. We still have four Brothers working at Nitro, but the Government Is cutting down on work and have laid off about a thousand men In all departments combined. The armor plate plant is going alone; smoothly and 466 has about 40 men working out there.

The boys on the cabin Creek 'job have finally got the scale after about three months wrangling. We have got three men still on that job. The contractors In town are not over burdened with work, but are keeping about twenty men workIng.

Also wish to say that a bunch of hypocrites and tin horn politicians In town have put one over on a good many union men by closing the Day & Night Bank on July 21, whose depositors were mostly out of the Rank & File and Brother" this Is just one more instant where the Capitalistic also Is riding the back of the working men and the very same working men ~re "f'l1pd a Bol"hpvik for standing for his rights as a working man, but I hope to see the time when conditions will he vire v('r~a. On July 1st. we installed new offirers which are as follows:

Presinpnt. Brother Thurston. Vlce-Pre~ldent, Sullivan, R. S. Webber,

F. S. Crawford. Treagurer, Crawford. Trustees. Morgan, Reily, Miller. The outgoing officers have mostly left

town, ann must say that our Ex-B. A. Geo. Kettman has left town and Is in St,

Louis and doing fine. He certainly put up a game fight all around while with us, and we wish him all kinds of luck whereever he goes as he Is a cracker jack handling any ditHcult proposition. Well I will close for the present.

Fraternally yours, Wm. Hebber, R. S. --------

L. t1. BO. 519, WALLACE, IDAHO.

Editor: "It has been a long time since Local 519

has had an article in the Journal, but like most everyone else, as soon as dilficulties arise, we will try and make ourselves known. In June of this year this Local carried on an extensive campaign of organization throughout the Coeur d'Alene Mining District, and we succeeded in getting a hundred per cent organization throughout the district. On July 14th. we submitted an agreement to the mining companies for a wage scale of $6.25 a.nd for the eight hour day, also for other numerous working conditions.

O'n July 26th, having received no reply from the mining companies on our proposed wage agreement, nor either did they meet us in committee, this local took a strike vote, and the same was carried by a very large majority. Immediately after the strike vote was taken, the Bunker Hill & Sullivan Mining Company of Kellogg, Idaho, practically submitted to the entire demands of our local with the exception of signing an agreement. After this strike vote had been taken we wired the International olfice for the assistance of an International representative, and Brother Thomas E. Lee of Seattle was sent here immediately. Immediately upon his arrival, he called a special meeting of. Local 519. and a committee was appointed to assist Brother Thomas E. Lee in trying to get conferences with the mine managers.

On Friday, August 15th, the Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers having failed in aU their negotiations with the mlning companies. caUed a general strike throughout the district. This strike was responded to by about two thousand men. Only one mine In the district succeeded in keeping any men at worlt and they had some fortr. men who remained, as they called, Loya.

Brother Thomas E. Lee and this committee worked incessantly. for eigh' davs with the mine managers throughout the district and succeeded only to the extent that they would grant us the increase in pay, but would not consider the eight hour day, or other working conditions, as asked by the local. Even at the time ot the conference with the committee, the mine managers did not hesitate in discriminating against some of our brothers, two of them being discharged, and things being made rather unpleasant for several others.

On Tuesday evening, August 20, 1919, Brother Thomas E. Lee and committee called a special meeting of Local 519. to report their findings and to take some action as to the future of this local. By almost unanimous vote the local went on record as calling the strike against the mining companies to take effect at seven o'clock Thursday morning, August 21st. The men responded to this strike call with the exception of Brother W. H. Reeves, working the twelve hour shift in the Lower Power House of Burke, who absolutely refused to come out on strike, claiming that he was well satisfied with working twelve hours and that the mininee ('ornpaniPR were losing money in the power house they were running, as it was only a small plant. and he did not feel like working any undue hardship on them. This local at our regular meeting last


niK'ht felt the same way toward this EltBrother Reeves. and we really felt sorry tor him and did not wish to work any hardship on him. 80 we placed him on our untalr list and al80 placed a Five Hundred Dollar-tine agaInst this Ex-Brother. We believe that by doing this It may be of some advantage to him, as he will never take the obligation of this local again to become a typical scab.

Now, brothsrs. Local 519 is Into this fight to win. We are expecting a long, hard. drawnout tight. Undoubtedly the snow will fall and will probably go away again before this strike is over. but after the smoky battle is .cleared away, they are going to tlnd Local 519 on the field with her fiags flying.

We are tlghting mining corporations with their millions. with nothing but our bare tlsts. But bare tlsts and honesty of ~~~~~~e most generally brings home the

A great many of our brothers are married men. with families. On them is going to deVOlve the real hard times of this strike. Any assistance that can be given us to take care of these brothers will be greatly appreciated by this local and by them. 'Ve will endeavor from time to time to keep all brothers posted through the Worker, as to the progress of this strike, and until such a time as you are no titled through the 'Vorker that this strike has been won. please stay away from this district, for when the mining companies have closed down, there is absolutely no other Industry for men to work in, as this Is strictly a mining camp.

Hoping that you brothers who read this arUde will give this strike as much publicity as posslhle, I remain,

Fraternally yours. W. A. Smith, Sec'y.

Editor: Well the long looked for day has passed

for this year. With theme and glory the brothers of 584 marched up and down the strE'ets of the magic C'ity, keeping step with strains of music and receiving cheers as the banner tloated along. 'Vo enjoyed a picnic at Sand Springs park afternoon and evening. with plenty retreshments. entertainments. and a basket dinner with plenty to eat. a fino opportunity to taste wlfey's cooking.

I think. all the boys tried to eat the other fellows grub. I got a few pieces of Brother Anderson's chicken. and Bum was there with a full dozen, I mean chickens.

At our regular meeting Aug. 27th, Bro. Bumgarner was elected president for the remainder of the year. Brother Bum was marshal of the day. He Is reliable. especially when he Is riding the pacing steen.

'Yell Brothers, by the time this dopE' eheet goes to press the boys will be orr to the big convention. which we hope to be the greatest In the history. About all the boys are working. I will dead end right here. with best wishes to all.

Ju"t a few lines to IE't our brothers and sisters know something about the 'strike of Loc-als 81A and 621 against Mother Bell here at Norfolk. which lasted three weel{s.

On the morning of August 28th. five hnndrf'd an .. 1 fifty tdrlcz f'''''rl mrTl WhO were mE'mbers of LoC'al Unions 621 and 81A went on strike against the Chesapf'~lk~ ;:)n,l POtnn1"l(" 'T'p.lpnhnne f"oTYlnanv, after waiting nearly 10 months for 20 per cent in"rease and hack time retroaC'tlve from Ortober 6th. 1918. a!!! agreed by VIC'ePresident and General Manager of the ("t"'"apeake and Potomac Telephone Compan\,.

and "elf-sacrlfl<'e" until our patience had beC'ome exha l1"ted.

On thE' serond morning of the !ltrlke a Po"t Omre Inspertor appearpn upon the srpne and as usually his pre"ence were simply a stall for us to return to work T''''n~li"''''' .f!'t· .... tl ... t> .... np.-rnti~tinn~. w'h~,.h we h ... rt done la"t Ortoher. hilt up to AnguRt 28th the Post Office Department had made DO


ettort to hear us either one way or the other.

During our three weeks of a strike we were only forsaken by two girls and three men from our ranks. and I want to IlaY right here we certainly made the company· sit up and take some notice as to the way we were sticking together.

Brother Kloter was sent here hy the I. O. and we want to extend to Brother Kloter again our hearty thanks for his co-operation and loyal A~sist~nC'e that he gave us. He was right there when It came to the pinches, as a matter of fact he became so popular here that even the Police Justices would only require of him one dollar to ball out our men as they were plnC'l'ed. Neverthple~s '''e owe to Brother Kloter a great deal more than we can ex~ press In words. for he was not a well man when he was with us. even then he IItood by us until our troubles were to an end.

If I should begin to tell you of the tactiC'R that the Comn>lnv l1sen J >lm afraid Mr. Editor you would have to get out an extra copy of the 'Yorker. As an example of some of the things they did. they accused me before their employees In other cities of stealing the strike fund and buyIng a Ford and beating it across the country. Later when we held a tag day I took the proceeds of the day and chartered a boat. taking- all 0'" th" Rtrikingoperators out for an all-night boat ride. while a little later I was shot nine times with Mother Bell bullets. However the following night after I was supposed to have heen shot I appeared on the scene tn Richmond. and you can just take It from me old ]\fother Bell has not been able to float anything else about me since.

Of cOllrse there were nice things said about Brother Kloter also. but Brother Kloter ann myself have gotten used to Yother Bell's abuse. 'Ve have had it tbrown at us so much.

Now Mr. Vnitor. I ~m pnC'losing- " li"t of all moneys received and expenditures during the period of the strike and wish to take this means In extending personally to an of the Locals and kind brothers that assisted us. Our locals and myself appreciation of the finandal assistance given us. and may I add that you reaners can see for yourself the way In which I. dear Mother Local No. 80 responded to our cause by giving the list a glance. There is not a member in 621 and 81A that can ever forget the boys of 80. They surely were there with their hearts as Union men.

I hope It won't be long before we wlll have this District entirely organizpd and thanks to Brother Edw. Kloter for his splendid work In Richmond. Old Mother Bell has always boasted tbat this city could not be organized but after I sent a request to the 1. O. for Brother KIoter we went after them up there In Richmond and you will see for yourself in a fp.w months just what good work Eddie did.

I have spent the past two years In working without compensation to' my local as Financial Secretary and Business Agent because nothing can please me better than to see every employee of Mother organized. I firmly believe If every Local In this Country would put Its shouldpr to the wheel and try to organize the telephone workers In their respective cities It would not be long before we would have Mother Bell at our mercy. 'Ve must realize we cannot match Mother Bell's dollars. but we can shortly lick her by our industrial strength.

During any of Mother Bell strikes they will always plead poverty. but mind you they can pay thousands of dollars a day for strike-breakers In paying them double time for every hour worked. room and board them In the swellest hotels in the city, ride them to and from their work In automobiles, but still they have not got a damm penny for their employees.

But on the other hand they are now tr)'Ing their best to get their employees to join themselves Into an Association of Employees which is managed by the Company Officials. I trust the employees of Mother BeII will be broad minded enough to see that the Company Is forming Its association for Its own good. Has Mother BeII ever given you anything unless she considered herself before giving It to you? TO you men who have spent the years In the telephone companies as I have, please, for the sake of humanity wake up to your senses and come with us Into the rank alJd


f1le where we can shortly make the feeble one see their mistakes.

Now Mr. Editor I have taken advantage 1)f your space, but I trust this lengthly letter will not over burden your force and thanking you in advance for the space that It will require, I am

:r.. 11. lIrO. 658, LZTTLE BOCX, ~X.

Editor: The three Little Rock Local Unions are

sending a good strong delegation to the 15th Biennial Convention. each local electing their financial secretaries. men who have the right Ideas of unionism and have the nerve to express their convictions. Little Rock feels proud of the fact that a member of the law committee was chosen from L. U. 812. R. N. Pedrick financial secretary and chairman of the Local R. R. Shop committee. L. U. 295 Is sending Brother J. C. Parr, their financial secretary and a brother whose integrity Is far above the average Our own local, in sending Brother Stoecker; believe that we have a delegate who can measure arms, intellectually. with most any other delegate who may be fortunate enough to be a delegate to this history making convention.

We regret to note that a movement Is on foot. by a few members of North Texas Local Unions. to try to again cause dissatisfaction and unrest in the Brotherhood. The slogan. "Electrical work for electrical workers" should always prevail. In their appeal to the linemen locals these fellows say that they want the division to be made In a peaceable way. It is a very hard matter for us to believe that an effort to disrupt an organization can be an act of peace. Can you conceive of a man sh'aklng a red fiag In the face of a buII in an effort to have a little friendly play with the animal? There would be just as much common sense In an act of that kind as there is In an effort to divide the Brotherhood into two separate organizations. Our experience of only a short time ago should convince all fair minded workers that the only successful method Is for alI electrical workers to have one International and all work for the good of the order generally, adhere to the plan of. "an injury to one is the concern of all." and then you will find that we wllI prosper. In our opinion it is the imperative duty of all loyal members of the Brotherhood to not only discountenance and discourage. but to absolutely scorn any effort made by anyone who is Inclined to disrupt the organization as these Texas brothers are now doing.

I notice that Brother Thomas Hession, member of L. U. 142. which is located in the city of baked bea~s fame, is pleased to comment In a sarcastIc way on my article on the "League of Nations." That Is alright Brother Hession, have a good time. we all enjoy your efforts to appear as intelligent as other people. \Ve believe that you mean well anyway.

L. 11. lIrO. 659, Dl1l1rXIBX, lIr. Y.

FAltor: What is the most pressing problem be

fore the working class today? I dare say, that all workers will agree that the high cost of living is the most pressing of all problems before us today. It is a problem that demands an immediate solution now and not some time in the future. The American workers have just witnessed the fact that OUr misrepresentatives at Washington were preparing to recess Congress for a couple of months and leave this most serious problem to take care of Itself. And It

seemed that the American Labor Movement (and especially the A. F. of L.) was asleep and not fully awake to the needs of the times. But there was one branch of Orglnized Labor that had not been hypnotized into a false sense of security. and that branch (the Railroad Brotherhoods) went before Congress and the President and demanded that the cost of living be lowered or wages would have to advance. The Industrial masters were for the moment dumfounded and rendered speechless. When we consider the fact that the industrial masters look upon the workers as so many slaves who should tamely' submit to every whim of the masters. it is not to be wondered at that they were for a moment rendered dumb at the. unheard of audacity and courage of the spokesmen of the Railroad Brotherhoods. But these creatures are a foxey brood and they quickly recovered their speech. and they have had their lackeys and lickspitels (who are our misrepresentatives) tell us that the cost of living will be investigated. They might as well investigate the man in the moon for all of the benefit the workers will receive from any investigation. We have been surfeited with Investigations for the last ten years and never any result has been achieved that has been of any benefit to the workers. On the other hand. the cost of commodities have been continua11y increasing. till at the present time the simplest necessities are far beyond the reach of the average worker. The workers are faced with the most serious situation that they have ever faced. On the one hand we see the profiteers and parasites rolling In wealth and luxury and on the other hand we see the workers (who produce all wealth) living in misery. in want and In poverty, knowing not where their next day's meal Is coming from. This in a country that is the richest in the entire world, in a country that can give plenty to a11, all the time. but because a few control the means of production and distribution. these few thus become the actual masters of the entire Nation. If the Government is rea11y seeking a remedy they should take over the entire food supplies of the country, together with the distributing agencies and all natural resources and operate the same for the benefit of the mass of the people and not for the profiteers and parasites.

The Government demonstrated the fact that It had the power to cope with any situation that might arise. It took over the railroads. the telephones. telegraphs. It gave us food and fuel administrators and various other agencies that regulated the daily life of the people. 'Vhat the Government can do in time of war it can. if it will. do In time of peace, But it is hardly to be conceived that a government that Is interested in protecting the profiteers and parasites In their nefarious business of gambling In the necessities. and the lives of the workers. to tal<e any steps that will actually bring a cure to the present conditions. Such a step wi11 have to be taken by the workers themselves by electing working class representatives.

Yours fraternally, Chas. Costantnlv. P. S.

L. 11. lIrO. 713, CmCAGO, D.L.

Editor: It has been some months since Local 713

has had a letter in the Journal and some one may think we are no longer doing business. so I shall endeavor to discredit any and all of these thoughts. At this writing we are up to our ears with both good and bad business.

In reference to the good or pleasant happenings I will state we have nearly doubled our membership In the last six months and still more coming. Having


established a minimum of 80 cents per hour for the motor repair men and a 44-hour week In all of our shops. AI1 of our old and some of the n(>w shops have signed up with the exception of four shops. '''Ie were compelled to strike Becker Bros., Corbin and Guion, Roth Bros. and the General Electric Repair Shops. Becker Bros. endeavored to get an Injunction against us. After spending four days in court the judge refused to grant them this or even a temporary writ and laid It over tll1 October. '''Ie are quite proud of this as the judges In Chicago seem to have a mania In granting Injunctions agRlnst labor unions In difficulty.

The Roth Bros. Is the firm that manufactures the "Famous" motors and generators bearing that name. All of the employees both mach inlsts and electricians are out and standing firm.

The General Electric repair shop Is also completely tiedup, nobody working except the janitor or watchman. Everybody is In the best of spirits.

I trust all of these will be cleaned up In the near future. I have no doubt that when they are we will be able to report a complete victory for the members vf Local 713.

'''Ie would like to thank the locals of Ft. Wayne, Ind., for the assistance and courteous tri'atmcnt g"iven Brother V. M. Kruzlc when he called there to state our position' in ~hicago on the strike situation especially that of the General Electric Co. I trust the other locals he may call on will do like wise as I know yoU will enjoy his speeches and he is able to go into detail in regards to this trouble.

"'e would appreciate the moral support any local may give us in this battle.

I would 'like to call to the attention of any brother who is thinking of coming Into our jurisdiction that there is between two and three hundred members out on strike a"t1 it would be to his Intprests to correspond with our Secretary or Business Agent before he !'tarts, especially if he be an armature winder or motor repair man.

Fraternally yours, J. A. Jackson, P. S.

L. 'U. NO. 720, CAlIIlDEN, N. J.

Editor: This letter will be somewhat shorter

than my previous ones, as I haven't much news to tell yOU of. Rverything here Is about the !'ame and all of our brothers are well and working. with the excentlon of thr<ee or four. Brother Robinson being one of the 11nfortunate ones. he being confined to his home with tonsilltls. A speedy recovery Is wished him by all the brothers.

Th" v"rlo"" railro>'d lo('a\s and brotherhoods throughout this vicinity had the privilege at the conclusion of the Labor Day parade of hearing Mr. Glenn E. Plumb speak of hi" plan of the dispo!'ition of the railroads. The parade was held in Philad(>lphia and there were three or four thousand men In line. From my knowledge Local No. 720 was very poorly represented, this of course In many cases was dne to the men having to work if trains will be run and It will be a general holiday for the men of these crafts and their families who can possibly find time to be present.

Our financial Secretary Brother Phelps reports that he has been quite successful In organizing the firemen. stok"rs and ashmen at the power hOllse, at which he is the power director. The conditions under which thp"e mpn work are very pO'lr and It Is Brother Phelps Idea If possihle to secure better conditions for these men.

Our Brother Prpsldent Mr. H. F. Hart. has also been quite successful In getting the clerks of the Supt. of the Division'S

Office organized. So you ('an see that WE' are on the job down here and wish it possible to help out our fellow railroaders. The organization of these men or any other organized body Is not to make abnormal demands for wages from time to time collectively. but for men to be able to help one another and to secure conditions towards their own and others betterment, which they could never do by pul-111'1'" separate strings.

We all were somewhat disappointed In the stand taken by President 'VUson In compliance with our demands for an increase in wages but upon a further consideration we deemed it quite advisable (as no doubt many of our brother local!' have) that we could be much better off In accepting the four cent per hour increase. If the President Is successful in giving us a relief from the High Cost of Living as he has promised to do, not only railroaders will be benefited, but every

. working man. The 72 cents per hour Increase is a permanent issue. but if the cost of living had been reduced In 90 days and we had been granted the 85 centll per hour, no doubt our wages would have been lowered and we might have been receiving a smaller wage than heretofore.

Our Treasurer Brother Saylor Is our delegate to the New Orleans Convention, and we are looking forward to some very interesting reports from him upon his return. Trusting that this reaches you in time for the Reptembpr publication and wishing you and the brother local& the best of succe!'!'. I remain

Fraternally yours, Harry L. Ralnear. P. S.

r.. 'U. NO. 723, FORT WA.YNE, mD.

Editor: As I think It Is about time for "7Z3"

to appear in The 'Vorker will try to give yo!! a little news from this section of the world. Everything with 723 Is fine and dandy. We had some trouble last June. We were forced to c!l11 strike on City Light. Traction Co., and Telephone Co. In order to secure an Increase in wages. We settled with the Telephone Company after one day's strike, but the City Light and Traction Company we were forced to keep out two w"pks. "'hlle we did not get what we were after we came close and have hopes of better days. 'Ve have the Construction Departments of three companies one hundred per cent organized and will make one big tight to I,eep them In line. All members working every day and good prospect for a busy winter. At our last election we elected a few new faces to hold down the job for the next year. Our old reliable president Jack Coolicon after four years service refused to run for another term. So Brother Robt. Deel was elected and Is making good with a bang.' Vice President chair is filled by "Shorty" Spence (about 6 ft. tall). Old war harM John Buelow could not pry himself loose from his job as F. S. as well as Sam Evans with the treasurer job. Brother Zimmerman, foremen; Brother Clenn, first Inspect{)r; Brother Miller second inspector; and the members not to be out done elected brother Cool icon trustee for three yea"s. Brother 'Vrlght a hold over and Brother Decker a new trustee with "your" truly" as recording secretary files the slate. The boys are mare prompt with their dues than their presence at meetings. I guess that Is the trouble with all locals. I for one wish some brother would devise some means to get every mpmher a regular attpndant at meetings.

That I think is a duty every member should Impose on himself. If it were not for the faithful few who' are alwayl' there I wonder where 90 per cent of thA Local Union would be. Of couree we


can't attend every meeting, but there Is very few reasons. for members attendIng one meeting out of five. Well we are having some regular old summer weather again, but brothers It wont be long until the pretty snow balls will be playing around our ears. Guess I have said enough for the first time.

L. 11. NO. 729, Pl1J!lXSl1TA WNEY, PA..

Editor: . This Is the first you have received any

correspondence from Local Union No. 729, I. B. E. W. of Punxutawney, Fa .. but as I have recently been elected P-ress Secretary. I will endeavor to keep the Brothers Informed of the accompllshments ot our Local through the \\'orker. Local Union No. 729 is composed of inside and outside electrical workers. linemen. wiremen. sub-station men, or In fact all who are following the trade of electrical work. And believe me. we are growing rapidly, tor there is hardly a week passes, but what we have new Initiates to put through.

During the past tew months we have had our bizzy-izzy agent working hard and he Is sure doing some real good worK among the telephone men, bu t mostly the telephone operators. and have secured a large number of applications from Punxsutawney, Pa., and nearby towns. The tollowing officers elected for our last meeting night, Tuesday. August 26:

President, R. T. Anderson. Vice-President, Hazel Shields. Acc. Sec .. , Gretchen Hazen. Fin. Sec. and Treas., John Mitchell. 1st. Inspector, Ethel 'Vaddlng. 2nd Inspector, Lillian Jordon. Foremen. Donald Skinner. Well Mr. Editor, I will ring 01T with

hopes of having some real good news tor the next issue of the Worker.

L. 11. NO. 738, 'OBAliGE, TEXAS.

Editor: Brothers, here we are again. We are

not much on thl~ writing stulT, for all members of Local 738 are plain wire twisters and stick climbers, so please take this for our eX(,Il!<e for not writing oftener. We are having a little trouble at present with the Yellow Pine Paper Mill Co., but everything Is coming ollr way so far. The paper mill workers wt're forced on strike and have been out about thirty days. The Company brought In IItrike breakers from New York and tried to start the mill. then memb€'rs of Local 738 were called ort and a re stili orr. Must admit we had some llvely times. Suppose It was too much for them New Yorkers for they were here about 200 IItrong two weeks ago, and tonight at this writing th"re are onlv six of them left and J know they would go If they could. They say those Texans or long horns are too rough and 1 guess It Is true. If Brother H. B. Halthouse sees this he can guess the rest.

Now Brothers, the big game Is yet to be gotten. but we have got 'em lined up pretty well. Have one shipyard. closed shop and an agreement up until October. the nrst. three other yards and two contractors that wt' are going after. 'Ve will try and get a general contract with all when the one we have runs out and that Is soon. We are all awake and have our eyes open. 100 per ('ent organized. so don't think we will have any trouble, and here 111 hoping us luck.

Pasagould what are you doing? Wake up. Let us hear from you. Are you getting lined up with the I. N. A. B. Co. for October the first? Lets go at it. United we stand. Divided we fall.

Hoping to see a good bunch of wire twisters In New Orleans Sept. 15.

L. 11. NO. 817. :NEW YOBE. N. Y.

Editor: The crisis has almost been passed. and

the fight against the hlght cost of living has begun. What will be accomplisht'd remains to be seen. Let us hope that success will be the outcome. and the equivalent of lahor's demands be granted in the form of a noticeable oecrease in the ('ost of living. The refusal to grant the oemand!< of the railroad workers Is to be very much regretted. and the offer of a four cent hourly increase may be accepted on the promise of President Wilson to wage a merciless war on all profiteers. and with the understanding that If this should prove fruitless the only solution then w!ll be to bring the wages. up to a level with the current prlC'es as to permit the workingman to Ih·e. not after a fashion as has heretofore been the custom. but to live and enjoy the benefit!! of his strt'nuous efforts and whole-heartea endeavors to give the best that Is in him to the work In which he is engaged. This means that the wages of the lowest paid workman should be adequate to keE'p him and his family In comfort. and does not mean that beeau"e he is not fitted to hold any of the more skilled positions. due to his lack of education and adaptability, that he should be forced to live a handto-mouth existence which Is all he Is able to do under the present wage conoitions. There is a big Improvement that can be made unCl"r these lines and the sooner It Is accomplished the better It will be for all those ('on('erned. We are all human beings and have the right to live, but when the wages paid some workers are scarce enough to support themselves alone. how is a man expected to help to build up a Nation and assume the responsibility of !<upportlng and educating a family. Rurely. somHhing mu"t be done to alleviate this terrible condition and plare the good things in life within reach of all. anCl let us hope that something will be done. and soon.

The members of Local Union No. 817 pledge themselves to support their leaClers and be governed by their good advice. This does not n1t'an that they are satisfied. because their attitude toward (he refusal of their demands was not by far taken in a any too amiable manner. They voiced their opinions and desired to have It known that they wished to abide by the advice of their leaders and arted on that alone. They feel that they h{lve waited long enough and are fed up on promises, but sooner than grasp the bit In their teeth. they allowed tbelr leaders. who they feel are working for their Interest!!, to take the reins and guide them safely through. whirh no <'oubt was the best course to pursue under the prevailing clrcumstanC'es.

The r"turn of the railroads to private ownership has been Introduced In the House of Representatives In the form ot the Cummins Bill. and no douht It Is expected by the ad,'ocates of this plan to have It put through. and therefore kill the Plumb Plan. '\Vhether the workers will be considered In the attempt of passIng the roa~s back to private ownership Is not known. but there seems to be a feeling among all of them that to allow


the roads to continue under government operation would be more 88.tisfactory.

Local Union No. 817 Is Bending two delegates to the convention at New Orleans. They are our Worthy President Charles Thompson and our Financial Secretary Bill Smith. a good pair of fighters who can be depended upon to put up a good argument. and battle to the last ditch for 817. so you can see we are goIng to be well represented at the Convention.

With best wishes and success to the Brotherhood. I am,

Fraternally yours, C. H. de Santo,

Editor: Will take my trusty pen In hand once

mote to let YOU know the latest from 8l!Z. We are taking fifteen or twenty new members every week. We had a nice turnout In the labor day parade and picnic. We have very few members out of work as everything Is picking up In our line, and we are expecting a good winter. We with the rest of the steel mill locals, have our spale before the Steel organizIng committee and hope for an early settlement, as we are going after what we want In a joint movement and not the old everybody for his self style that cost the labor movement so much loss of time and money In the past.

As we all know that there never was a more true saying than In Union there Is strength and united we stand and divided we fall, so we have united to stand and stand we will against all odds.

We have been bowled over for the last time and will show big business that union is strength. Hoping to be able to report one of the largest victories In the near future that has been pulled since the railroad boys went over the top I remain yours

Editor: Here are a few lines from Local 880.

We are still In the fight and are slowly and surely overcominl\" those obstacles which are always found, without them life would be dull. The A. F. of L. is having some great meetings around here now, meetings which are well attended from both sides. Some of the Stool Pigeons would make you sick. Special police In plain clothes. paymasters, socalled or would be electricians, chemists, all classes and kinds. but not a man among them. They act like a whipped cur when you talk to them, just hang there head and whine. I have talked to quite a few of them on the Southside and some of the excuses they try to offer. WE'll they are th'.' biggest help, they are the cause of making all good men working that much the harder, the qulckE'r the dnor is shut on such "skunks" the better off the world will be. I am just wild with delight when I meet one of them, but it is the dE'lIght and the pleasure of reading the "riot act" to him. I am getting off my story a hit. 'Ve have been taking In new members every night, and nlfferent reports rf'ndered shows everything for the best for R80. ,\Ve had considered taking part In the Labor Day parde but finally decided not to. We have had so many of the boys lose their .lohs hecause they carried cards and attended meetings, that it would not be wise to take part in no parade just now. Some day soon the time will change then we will be able to do as we see fit with our leisure time. Just

now the Steel Companies try and dictate what yOU shall do after your day's work Is done. "Great life If you don't weaken." Work Is not anything to brag about around Pittsburg just now, as none of the mills are doing much hiring. Some want to know what your religion Is before they will hire you. I for one would be In a bad shape for a job at this one place. I'll say It Is sure time that we shall all get together and try to do away with such conditions. The autocrats of Europe never did have anything on the autocrats of Ute Steel Trusts of this country. Everybody does just a little and they will fall. Let's make this movement a grand success. Editor I hope this escapes the blue pencil and that some of the sleepy headed Brothers wake up and get busy. Get around and attend the meetings and hear Brother Bennett. He will wake the dead then go out resolved to do some good and go after some of these that always say "Oh I'll walt and see what you fellows do." I know It is hard plugging from experience, but keep right after them, don't take no chance. Where there is a will there Is a way.

Yours truly, Jack Keeling, Press Secy.

Editor: Since Local Union No. 898 of Hunting

ton, W. Va., has begun to make a showing in our home town. I think the Brothers should know we are on the map. Our local was organized In February, 1919. We have a membership of between fifty-five and 60 and stili growing. We have just elected a new set of otncers, they are as follows:

Presldent-T. J. OShea. Vice President-D. L. 'Reed. Financial Secretary and Treasurer-A.

C. Singer. Recording Secretary-L. S. Abbott. We have a strike on with the Ohio

Valley Electric Railway and Light Co. and twenty-five or twenty-seven of our members are effected. The situation at this writing Is here a deadlock. But we think we have the situation In our favor. There Is but one man trying to work In Huntington. Not a man in Ashland, Ky. and three apprentice linemen in Ironton, Ohio. all these three towns are affected with the strUte. One of our members an apprentice linemen In Ironton, Ohio. All these three towns are affected with the strike. One of our membprs an apprentice is rating in Ironton, Ohio. The boys are all on the job and keep these rats hustling to work at all. Should we have a little storm and tear a little stuff down it Is quite possible that it would bring the company across.

Editor: A few lines to let you know wbat a

successful Labor Day celebration organIzed labor held in Titusville. The central trade and labor ('onneil made arrangements for having a big celebration on Labor Day.

The Central Trade and Labor CounCil held dances and each union man subscribed a dollar to cover the expenses.

A large parade was held in the mornIng. W. E. Sharp acting as grand marshall, rode at the head of the column. Mr. Sharp Is president of the Central Trade and Labor Council and a trustee In our Union. There were about a thousand men and women in line representing seven-


teen organized crafts. There were also several good tloats In line. Our tloat wall considered to be the best In line, three good bands which were engaged for the day furnished plenty of good music.

Immediately fallowing the disbanding of the parade George Leary of Newark, N. J., made a good Interesting address which was enjoyed by a large crowd of union men and others.

Mr. Leary Is vice president of the International union of Metal Polishers. The headquarters are at Cincinnati, Ohio. After Mr. Leary concluded his speech the large crowd went to Fleldmore park, where a basket picnic and a nice program was carried out In 'the afternoon consisting of races and fleld sports, dancing ana speaking.

The races and fleld sports, which were open to everybody were Interesting. $105 in cash prizes were awarded to the winners of the various events. The speakers of the afternoon were Hon. John L. Wilson of this city. and Leland J. Culbertson, Esq., of Meadville. Both gentlemen gave a short but excellent talk on the broad subject of organized labor.

Dancing was enjoyed by a large crowd both afternoon and evening. A prize onestep was put on in the afternoon for flve dollars. and a prize waltz In the evening for a like amount. During the afternoon and evening band concerts were held in the park.

There were numerous concessions on the ground which were run by the Central Trade and Labor Council.

Although the weather was a bit threatening during the afternoon there were between four and flve thousand people on the grounds in the midrlle of the afternoon. Being the flrst Labor Day celebration of Its kind to be held In this city It certainly was a grand success and the committees received many compliments. The electrical workers of L. U. No. 929 did their full share toward maldng It a big day. "Ve came across with our dollars, and there were thlrty-flve of us on deck to march In the parade. Several of our members served on the various committees.

We the people of Titusville are beginning to realize what the first Monday of September Is set aside for.

Wishing the Brotherhood continued success, I am

Editor: Having been elected P. S. some time ago

for this local will try and send a letter Into the Worker every month, during my sojourn in this town.

This Local Is a real new branch of organized labor but we think we got started off right. Thanks to an A. F. of M. organIzer we have here In this city.

We presented a wage contract and workIng agreement to the four contractors and three of them signed it without any argument whatsoever. The other contractor who al~o runs a department store sells automobiles and in fact sells everything under the sun, absolutelY refused to talk to us and at the present time he has a very good shop but no men to do his work. Several of the boys said his hair Is turning gray every night but I can't honestly vouch for any such statement.

If any of the Brothers come this way and have the necessary credentials, which as every mechanic should know Is a green ticket, he wiJI be treated to the very best we can af'tord and at least we will all give him the glad hand.

Would like to see a letter In the Worker from No.6, San Francisco or some of the

other West Coast locals now and then, as a few of us sUll emigrate when cold weather sets In. '

Editor: This town Is In the small town class

approximately 8.000 to 10,000 Inhabitants. It lies in a zodiac "lane at an elevation of 1.600 feet-cool, Invigorating and refreshing, therefore making It an ideal climate.

It has been known too, but a few. Never has it before had a local, but recently one has been reared now It has Increased its membership to 20 members and from all Indications it will Increase from time to time as the 011 in this vast territory is developed. The cause of this boom Is oil. It is a mushroom growth Its steady and substantial.

Location-On the I. P. R. R., 120 miles west of Ft. Worth, Texas this town Is located. Ranger is 20 miles back towards Ft. Worth and Eastland lies In between.

This town seems to be a favorite location for oil men and hard working craftsmen. who so desire a plea~ant cool and good place to live. It is all of that and the organizations are strong within themselves.

PopularltY.-Strange to say yet true, the old timers, the boomers, the past masters that follow the Electrical business for a livelihood seem to flnd this recuperating village. It's always a great place to have visits made by the followers of the Elech:ical Industries call upon us. Sometime one of these Knights fall in love with this Wateringplace and decide to make it their future abode.

Happenings.-Some two month's ago three musketeers floated within the ranks of Cisco Citizens. I know as the wrlterone was H. E. Hale, Jack Keys and myself. Hale and myself are still here and enjoying the balmy atmosphere of this wonderful village.

"Vhere Is Big Chief Jack Keys? He had an engagement down in the San Duns of Camatche County. He departed after looking all over town for some varnish.

I herein call upon any brother that sees this to mention it to the next man so as to inform the famous Jack Keys that I'm writing him an epistle. The flrst one to see this call out to Jack.

Back in sixty seven in Kansas City where the girls are pretty. Ask him about Dr. Ticknors horse-liniment and the Beef, Iron and 'Vine party that was held in the Booggie Hatch for Billy Bairds entertainment.

Jack said "'Vhy do the people blame me for taking medicine when the children cry for Castorla. The next experiment will be held to determine the kick and strength of Glovers Mange Cure.

Tell Keys to write me. I have something In view.

Most everybody turned, out to march but It just wasn't what It should be. The dance and Barbecue was a great success although these two thing caused so m e controversy. Half of these union men Influenced by religious views passed out by Frank Norris, a preacher that plays the union men and others for a soft livelihood. He trys to pull off that Billy Sunday stuff and he ropes a crowd together by knocking others religion. These few would rather have the flne that was plastered on them rather then slide over that smooth marb!,e surface route to Heaven-that Norris lays out. If you fellow brothers want to get to Heaven easy come out and follow Norris. All you have to do Is tell him you want to be saved and he flxes It.


Thank the Lord he didn't Inftuence any Electrical Worker, although Leslie Wilkinson Is a steady attendant. I believe he bolls out the oration and puts It down for evening pastime. Anyway the dance was keen and these nutts were frustrated.

Mother Bell Boys here all lined up 80 everything is 100 per cent pure.

Fallahay the "Hawk" Is running the Humble job here and throughout this section Including ranger.

He made an enemy of all the big eastern construction companies because he is holding the finest wiremen In the country and must turn them loose any faster then everyday.

By the way correspond with Fallahay, he needs some oral wiremen. He cannot use In voices he wants some keen workman. "'Ire him In care Humble 011 Co., Cisco, Texaa.

Around the Circuit. Local Union No. 367 of Easton. Pa. have

concluded a new agreement with their employers, which prov:des for union shop, eight hour work day, very substantial Increase in wages and improved working conditions.

Local Union No. 325 of Binghamton. New York. assisted by Organizer Dowling obtained an increase of 15c per hour in wage scale. The settlement was reaehed without suspension of work.

No. 81. Scranton. Pa., has just renewed its working agreement to run for a period of fourteen months beginning August 1. 1919. improving working conditions very materially. Seventy-five per cent of the membership reduced their hours from ~ to 8, the 9 hour rate of pay to continue; the principal of seniority rights was secureil and applies to all employees. which includes under our agreement, linemen, groundmen. stationery engineers, switchboard operators, d),namo tenders, oilers, cranemen. plant electricians, plant utility men. SUb-station operators, etc.

The difficulty began at the expiration of the old agreement by the company lockIng out the greater majority of Our members. Negotlatlon~ were carried on for. several days unsuccessfully and it became necessary to call out our engineers and switchboard operators. \Ye were supported by the firemen and chaffeurs-in defense of the union shop clause demanded by the three organizations. In the final settlement an improvement upon the former preferential clal1S(> W8'" acceptC'd: a six (6) per cent Increase was obtained 1. all eight hour men. The lueal was assisted by Acting Vice-President Smith.

Local Unions 755 and 756 assisted by Organizer Kloter entered into an agreement with the Monone:ahela Valley Traction Company, providing for substantial

Increase in wages and greatly improTet1 working conditions.

Assisted by Organizer Cleary. Inside electrical workers of Lima, Ohio reached a settlement of difficulty with contracting shops in that city. An immediate wage increase of IOc per hour is provided by the settlement: additional increase of 8%c per hour becomes effective September First; and further inC'],""H' of 6 1 , c per hour becomes effective .January First. The strike with Ohio Electric Company In that city Is still on.

Local Union No. 54 of Columbus, Ohio, at their last meeting voted to place the Flsch<'r Chase Switch Company of Columbus, Ohio, manufacturers of safety high tpnsion fuse bOXl'S and cutout ... on the unfair list. for the position taken by that company in the strike of L. U. ~o. 54 against the Columbus Railway, Light & POWf'r Company. This company has done everything possible to defeat the alms of L. 11. f>4 and the locn\ desire~ ,.\1 members to be acquainted with the attitude of the Fisher Chase Rwltch Company and to pay no nttnntion tf' advertiSlllel1t for outside electrical workers, the strike being on against the Railway, Light & Power Company here.

Signed W. D. Gavin. R. S. L. U. No. 54, Columbus, Ohio.

On behalf of the membero;hlp of Local No. 713 and for myself personally, I desire to express our sincere appreclatioB to the Electrical 'Yorl,ers of Schenectady, N. Y..

WORK OF SAFETY DEPARTMENT, U. S. RAILROAD ADMINI

STRATION.

The report of the Safety Department of the United States Railway Administration shows a great reduction in the number of fatalities and accidents upon the railroad systems under Government eontrol. We are publishing extracts from the report, which we commend to the thoughtful consideration of our readers and we believe the report is one of the strongest arguments for the continuation of Government Control that could possibly be advanced.

The Southern Region's "No Accident Week", January 19-25th, showed this encouraging reduction and record:

Casualties. January 19-25th, 1919......... 77 January 19-25th, 1918......... 466

Twenty-eight out of forty-five railroads had 100% record, eight roads reported only one slight injury. With approximately 230,000 employees and 36,000 miles of track, this was one accident for each 410 miles.

The Southwestern Region's "No Accidenth Month" covering the entire month ot May, 1919, made this gratifying record:

Casualties. )lay, 1919 ................... 646 May, 1918 ................... 1,475

This was a reduction for the month ot 56% in 1919 as compared with 1918, with total employees of 174,884. Twelve roads showed no accident for the month. This indicated a fine spirit of interest and cooperation of officers and employees.

The Central Western Region had "No Accident Week" during June 22-29, 1919. With sixty-seven railroads there were torty-seven (or 70%) that had 100% clear accident record. There are 55,000 miles of track and 327,000 employees in this Region.

This was the gratifying result: Casualties.

June 22-29, 1919 ............. 100 June 22-29, 1918 ............. 456 Compare casualty decrease 78%.

The Northwestern Region also had a "No Accident Week" during June 22-29,

1919. This region has 274,234 employees and 52,868 miles of track. Out of 63 railroads there were 50 (or 79%) that had record clear of accidents during this campaign. The following is the encouraging statement of this Region tor the week:

Casualties. June 22-29, 1919 ............. 119 June 22-29, 1918 ............. 481 Comparative casualty decrease 77%.

This successful intensified Safety work has attracted the favorable attention and earnest inquiry of the British and Japanese railroad officials in letters received the past week asking for information. This shows its worldwide as well as National influence.

Mr. A. F. Dugy, Manager, Safety Section, Division of Operation, U nit e d State Railroad Administration, has de· cided to hold the "National Railroad Accident Prevention Drive" for a period of two weeks, beginning October 18th at 12:01 A. M., and ending October 31st midnight, along the general lines of the recent successful sectional campaigns of like character.

This has my hearty approval and I shall be glad to have you officially and actively support this Drive, which is to be carried on under the direction and supervision of the Safety Section.

With this advance notice there is plenty of time in which to formulate plans and perfect your arrangements whereby you will be expected to enlist and )'eceive the hearty support of all officers and employees in your respective jurisdictions.

,sincerely yours, (Signed) Walker D. Hines.
