Favor Neutral Position of Den mark—Ready*, to Aid Peace Settlement. Copenhagen, Sept. 4.—Immediately I upon the outbreak of war the execu tive committee of the Social-Demo I cratic party, of Denmark adopted the following resolution defining the atti tude of that party to the war: "The Danish Social-Democracy ex presses its regret at the gruesome war now raging in Europe, ruining lives and property. "As tor Denmark's part in the mat ter, we unite with the Social-Demo cratic sroup in the 'Rigsd&gen' in its demand for neutrality to all sides and express the hope that with a sane and sensible policy Denmark will steer clear of all complications. "The Social-Dembcracy pledges its fullest support in the work for set tlement of all differences by arbitra tion and. does not hesitate to condemn the various governments and their diplomats for failing to heed the in ternational demand, of the Social- Democrats of the world. "This war condition of Europe has again established the fact that the capitalistic society and its resulting military politics is pregnant with s. terrible danger to the, culture And welfare of the people of all countries: "The Social-Democracy of all co.un^ tries have to the utmost sought to prevent this War, but thanks to th^ anti-Socialistic parties, attacks and persecutions, our party is as-' yet not in •?. position "of sufficient power and influence to stay the war dogs.of cap italism. "Socialism will destroy ill forms of exploitation and social differences «rtd therefore is the direct opposite to the present systein and the only accept able guarantee for peace. "All who wish to assist, in -trie worldV peace, based on the peaceable co-operation, of all people,: mUsl therefore arrive at. the conqiurton that the political actio nas advocated -.by. the Social-Democratic movement, its press an£ organizations, is the only .mea-ns tcv the end thi.t\ thitf move-, inept ma^ reach"steady diYttojttac V--*J," ii *i Much nas be$n saTd' and written about the' closed shop, not only in its favor by its adherents but against it by it* p.dversaries, and consequently in discussion of this most important questiofl'we^afre led to a consideration of the reason, for union organizations. Let us see*' Broadly speaking, we can divide the reasons foj union into three-ol«is»esi First.-r—Tosecure netter wages. Second.'^To secure shorter hours of labor* Third..—T§j make employment a cer^a^hty* for.! members. The: balance of reasons, such as' sa,iiit«ry. working conditions, the union lkftely'more'light in the factory, a-pprenticeship rtiles, etc., .can all be clased Under and as-auxiliary to the three, classes set out .above. The third reason .assigned—name ly, "to make employment a certainty for members," is the one with "which we are concerned in this article. The question of wages, shorter hours, etc., is: always .open to conciliation and ar bitration, and the representatives of the unions are .always willing to ar bitrate these controverted questions, but there can be no arbitration of the closed shop proposition, for the reas on that on this feature of unionism thie men, as a body, must stand or fall. The trade unions in the first in stance were developed among the workers who in desperation were forced into organization on account of the "pluck me" stores^ the sweatshop conditions, the low wages and long hours under which they were com pejle/d to labor. After organization they first said, "We want the 'pluck me' stores abolished ^this was ac complished. Then they said, "We want more sanitary surroundings during working hours they secured that. They then demanded shorter hours of daily labor and secured them. And then from time to time they asked for and, usually after an industrial 'battle, thejr secured more pay. But even these advantages did not eliminate the illssv to .which they were heirs, for the reason ^h^t the employ ers "were continually discharging those whom they ple&sed to call "agi tators" and employing nonunion "peace-makers" to disrupt the condi tions the trade unionists had gained through their collectiye. efforts. Real izing this, the leader? very wisely came to the conclusion .that to remedy that, evil it would ..be necessary to evolve some plan whereby, only mem influence ..in society .^ritl thereby pow er sufficient, to reach thp goal that will result in the ,^6mo.val' of the crushing military burdens, the abol ishment of wars and3! the establish ment of the broth(&1ftbd "of all na-. •. tions. 0. ..

It is, generally speaking, the "dove of peace, good will and fair treatment" on the part of both the employer apd employe^ and if right ly used by the parties to the contract it means more industrial peace than can be sscured by any other means or methods. In innumerable decisions handefi down by the courts it has been heM that the men have a ri-jht to organize, ask for better conditions, ask f?r higher wages, ask for more sanitary surroundings, or ask for anything within reason to Improve their mpral, intellectual, physical and social wel fare. The courts have further said that the employers have a r^ght to or ganize and combat- these demands and seek to get the men for the low est wage possible, and to work the. man under conditions named by them. Now, then, this being the case, and both parties being legally organized, is there any man or set. of men who are so devoid or deficient of "gray matter" that he or they will say an agreement entered into by those two contracting parties for the closed shop, wherein the employer obligates himself to hire none but members of the union, and the men obligate them selves to wbrk for him for a given compensation and to furnisti the em ployer with all the men he needs from their rViks, is "cri%unaLl?" Scores and scores of decisions have been handed down by the courts touching these points, and if the men\ have the undisputed right to. do this, then it cannot be contradicted that the employers have a right to organ ize to combat this. If this condi tion arises (and let me add that does frequently) then what is to pre vent these two parties from getting together and making an agreement which will insure' industrial peace, whereby the employer agrees to hire none but members of the organiza-.1 tion, pay certain wages, work certain hours and the men agree to work for the employer under those condi tions and to furnish him all the help he needs from their, ranks and ac cording to those terms? Any "con spiracy" or "criminality" about that? We most earnestly contend not, and all the specious and verbose criticism indulged in by our adversaries will not and cannot change the equitabil ity of such a contract.—Joseph Owen in Carpenter. —-the needle that has been called the "asp for* the breast of.- the poor"— is not driven- to the desperate choice of 'crime or death, of suicide or shame. I see a world without the beggar's outstreched palm the" miser's heart less, stony, stare the livid lipfc of lies the cruel eyes of scorn. And over all, in the great dome, shines- the eternal "star of human hope.—Robert Ihgersoll. A Frenchman says he can read a man's character in his hair.
