NIGHTS 25c—50c MATINEES 25c Each Day 9:30 to 11:30 SATUBDAY- -THE LABOR WORLD- Co-operation Is Sought. "The present war is an extraordin ary opportunity to determine those principles. This 'life and death strug gle between the nations of the world is a laboratory which is disclosing the strength or weakness of every social relationship and institution. War is forcing us back to the essentials of life. War is a fundamentally co-oper ative action of organic society. The present war is on such a gigantic scale that every part of national life is involved. The whole nation is in the war. The spirit of war activity and organization is essentially soeial. The national organism :s at stake. As war necessity we are seeking the principles which will assure the most efficient co-operation. This co-opera tion must come from the two prim ary forces of, society—the possessors of creative labor power and control lers of capital." Anticipating the spread of the leg islation, the report defines the Fed eration's position towards the policy as not hostile if "due guarantee for the protection of the rights of work ers are incorporated in the war emer gency measures." "Labor turnover," the report at tacked as even less desirable for the worker than for the employer, and advocated as a remedy its labor man ager plan, involving, it is said, "in telligent and sympathetic understand ing of the nee.d3 of workers and what constitutes fair dealing." It recom mended to permanent industrial es tablishments regular conference be tween committees of employes and the management to meet all problems and asserted that "it is fundamental for efficiency in production that the essentials of team work be under stood and followed by all." Health Insurance Laws. Discussing the question of work men's compensation, the report noted the "development of favorable senti ment for the enactment of health in surance laws," and declaring that the condition wis similkr to., that caused by accidents in- industry, asserted that "the organized labor movement of America ought to formulate a pro gram upon this subject." Dealing with the subject Of educa tion, the report classed .the credit for vocational educational progress as due —in part to the activities of the Fed eration, and expressed opposition to tendencies to "overweigh" the na tional vocational education board with new duties. It also advocated the ex tension of part-time school systems, which would finish the education of minors compelled to start early in gaining their livelihood. Porto Rican labor troubles were given some attention, and the report, citing charges brought by Mr. Gomp ers against Governor Yager of the island because of the use of insular police in breaking a strike on sugar planations asserted that the official action "had denied the right of free assemblage and "discussion," and said the governor had "followed an unwise trouble-provoking policy." All Should be Citizens. LABOR WILL GIVE ALL FOR U. S. NOTHING FOR PROFIT (Continued from page 1.) the principles which workers shall de mand as the basis for relationships. "We are each day building labor's house of tomorrow. If that structure is to endure the test it must be found ed upon the bedrock principles of equality and democracy in relations between men In behalf of labor, offering this co operation, the report renewed its de claration that labor cannot be classed as a commodity, and demanded "equal right to representation and equal voice on all agencies determining mat-, xers affecting their interests and wel fare, whether in private or govern ment employment. "Progress made towards this end through the shipping board and ord nance departments of the army," the report says, "indicates v. hat must be come an accepted custom in all pro uction." In some governmental as pects of war production, the report asserted the representation has not been accorded. It suggests that all producing enterprises be equipped with a "labor manager," as well as chief engineer and other executives and said that "there ought to be in charge of all labor problems of pro duction a highpowered trained labor man." Laws Against Idleness. In addition to its presentation of abstract principles, much of the vol ume of the annual report was taken up with recent history of the Federa tion's activities as they had to do with the immense conversion of na tional industrial establishments to war service, particularly citing the In sistence of its officials for the main tenance of the eight-hour day. Con siderable time was devoted to the war-labor board creation ,and to rail road labor policies. It dealt.likewise at length upon the adoption by Vari ous states, West Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and North Dakota, cf compulsory labor laws and expressed anxiety that the idleness banned by the laws should rot include that "resulting because of differences between employers and iheir employes." The report announced also that the executive council, in accordance with I the instructions of the last conven tion, had adopted a resolution fecom mending to affiliated unions that no individuals be admitted to union mem bership unless they were citizens of the United States. Reviewing .the enactment of na tional legislation during the year, the report among other things said that President Gompers and members of the executive board had carried Wt the federation's policies by opposing proposals to import Chinese labo. into the United States and its territories, and cited support gives to wage in crease for government employes, and to woman's suffrage. "The American labor movement faces the difficult problems of the future with'an organization numeric ally stronger and more, effectively "1 426 lt^il'S united than ever before," the courfcll's statement concluded. "During the past month the trades union move ment has earned for itself a recogni tion-and a value more adequate than ever previously achieved. It had stood the most difficult tests, and de monstrated that it is an indispensable part of organization for production, and therefore an integral part of the organization of society. "Because it is an agency that pro motes efficiency, and is indispensable, to the quickest and most effective pro duction of war materials, it is in evitable that the coming months will bring reat opportunities and increas ing organization. Let us strive to take every advantage of these oppor tunities in order that the workers may be in a position to deal wisely with the difficult problems of the re construction period that will follow the war, and thus to establish per manently the higher standards of life and work." IMPORTANT MEETING. The Federated Trades Assembly will hold a very important meeting tonight (Friday) at Owls' hall. With the con vention of the American Federation of Labor being held at St. Paul this week, and the consequent proximity of many prominent labor officials, an invitation has been extended by the local assem bly to have some one appear In Du luth. Although it is not definitely known who it wall be, local labor men are assured that the meeting Friday night will be addressed by a nation ally-known laborite.
