These unionists showed that living costs are much higher, when compared with 1914, than wage increases, which have averaged 80 per cent, while building material prices are still as high as 400 per cent in many cases.

Wait A Minute and Save Two The problem of handling traffic Comfortably and with dispatch during rush hours, when everybody Wants to ride at once, has never been solved satisfactorily by any street railway and probably never can be. Even with all our cars on time, shifting traffic makes it im possible to load cars evenly at all times. Unavoidable delays frequently disarrange schedules and instead of running at regular intervals cars come in bunches. The first car following a gap in service picks up more passengers than it should and when patrons help overcrowd it, instead of allowing it to pass and boarding one of the following cars, they slow up the whole line. The next time the cars become bunched, try waiting for the car behind. You will get home just as quickly, will ride more comforta bly and will help us get delayed cars back on schedule time.

Eypothetae, Closed Shop branch, to abrogate its agreement. This effort failed, and that body at its conven tion In St. Louis, Sept. 15, 1820, re affirmed its agreement to the 44-hour week. An attempt was made to get the International Joint Conference council to reconsider the agreement, and employers of the southeastern states succeeded in getting a meet ing of, the council at Atlanta, Ga.f Dec. 14, 1920. The council, after thorough discussion, reaffirmed its stand, and adopted the following resolution: Its Terms. "Whereas, there exists the Interna tional Joint Conference council, com posed of the organized sections of the commercial and periodical branch of the printing industry, with represent atives of the closed shop branch of the United Typothetae of America, the Printers' League of America, and the International Association of Em ploying Electrotypers for the for the Employers' group and representatives of fou* organizations of labor in the printing industry, namely: The Inter nation Typographical union, the In ternational Printing Pressmen and As sistants' union, the International Stereotypers' and Electrotypers' union, and the International Brother hood of Bookbinders and, Whereas, this Joint Conference council at a meeting held in Chicago, April 21, 1919, adopted as a method of peaceful settlement, through con ciliation and arbitration of industrial disputes the following preamble to its constitution: Only through joint conference In the spirit Of mutual helpfulness be tween employes and employers can the foundation be laid for stable and prosperous conditions within the printing industry. To promote the spirit of co-operation and to deal with the problems of the industry in a way to insure the protection of the interests of all concerned, the estab lishment of an International Joint Conference council, made up of repre sentatives of employers and employes, which shall be, thoroughly informed as to conditions and interests of sill parties in the industry and in a posi tion to suggest for ratification regu lations which shall eventually become the law of the industry, is considered essential. A Moral Obligation. Compulsory arbitration by law is deemed impractical ag a means of ad justing controversies between employ ers and employes. Controversies be tween employers and employes can and should be adjusted through vol untary agreements to refer disputes to boards of conciliation and arbi tration composed of representatives of employers apd employes in the indus try affected. It is in this spirit of arbitration and conciliation that the organization and operation of a Joint International' Conference council for the printing industry and allied trades is undertaken. "Whereas, the Joint Conference council at the same meeting in Chi cago, April 21, 1919, passed a reso lution recommending for the approval of its constituent bodies the intro duction of the 44-hour week on May 1921 and, "Whereas, this resolr.tion was rati fied and adopted by all of the con stituent bodies members of the Joint Conference council therefore, be it "Resolved, that it is the sense of the joint Conference council at its meeting held in Atlanta, Ga., upon the invitation of a group of Atlanta employing printers, Dec. 13 and 14, 1920, that all members of the con stituent bodies of the council are mor ally obligated to use every constitu tional process through concilation and arbitration for peaceful settle ment of industrial disputes and the council condemns any action in the handling of industrial disputes in vio lation of these general principles and be it further "Resolved, that this Joint Confer ence council considers all members of its constituent bodies are morally bound to adopt and put into effect the 44-hour week on May 1, 1921."

'THE LABOR OBLD 1 T" aes&aaxss3gxs!£=xmxsss2saGZ=^ TELL WHY THEY Explain Purpose of Citizens* Alliance Bit their Deeds Re- Continued from Page 1. The charge is but a bit of parroting that fa carried by one anti-unionist to another. They Sty It Pretty, .... .. "The 'closed shop' pays men In the mats, the good and bad alike}" claims the Alliance and its statement adds: "The 'open shoI' gives fts wage, ac cording to the energy, ability and in telligence of the individual workman," all of which is very prettily said. Mark it well the worker is paid according to his "energy, ability and intelli gence," of which the employer is the sote judge. It is not true that the union shop paysr the good, and bad alike. "That is merely 'open shop' bunk, craftily used to prejudice the- public mind against the unions. The union merely attempts to fix the minimum wage for the average worker. The better workmen always receive more than the union scale, which is the mini mum. The trouble with the 'open shop' employer is that he is in the habit of measuring the worth of his employes by the speed of his fastest workers. His tendency is to level wages down and not up. Just Another Falsehood. "The 'closed shop" tells the workers how much wealth he may produce," says the Alliance, and "tjie 'open shop* leaves him free to express his native energy and ambition, In unrestrained production," That is another anti Union falsehood. The workers in the union shop, as a matter of fact, on the average, produce more than the workers in non-union shops and of a better quality. Unions place no re strictions upon the amount of work a man Should turn out in a day. We challenge proof that any union in Du luth placed a restriction on produc tion. What the "open shopper" calls the workers' "native energy and ambi tion," is usually measured by his own ability to drive the. worker at top notch speed. "Unrestrained produc tion" sounds very well when applied in criticism of union labor, but it has quite another sound when it is applied to the cost-plus contractor who urges his workers to "slow up." Golly, But They're Bold. "The 'closed shop' runs all men through the same mold. It destroys the ambition to excel, takes away the incentive for individual effort* kills initiative and undermines independ ence," holds the Ailfahce, and then it proudly^ boasts /that:" "The 'open shop' rests upon the fundamental principles of democracy—freedom of action, independence In thought, self reliance and self-development." It 4s a shame to "take the money." That sounds beautifully when it comes fresh from the pea&eful office of the paid attorney for the Citizens' Alli ance, but a visit to a union shop and a non-union shop would convince the most skeptical that Mr. Harris got his wires crossed. Only in the union shop is a workman protected in his individual rights. There, through such protection, his,initiative has full sway and his independence becomes supreme. Independence a Dream. On the other hand a workman in an "open shop" dare not say his soul is his own. He is bowed down under autocratic rule. In an "open shop" democracy is a myth. There can be no self reliance in an institution where men are cowed, and independence is as remote as is the sun from the earth. Thousands of workers In so called "open shops" have come to this office in the shadow of dark ness, stealing in under cover to tell us of the injustices to which they were compelled to submit, and we were sworn not to divulge their names, for fear "they Would "lose their jobs." Independence? Self-reliance? Democracy? Freedom of action? There are no such qualities developed in a single non-union institution on earth, presided over by the kind of employers who are now making war on union labor. Repudiates Its Teachings. It stHkes the average matt that the Citizens' Allance repudiates the doc trine it" would have employers prac tice when it declares its "FUNDA MENTAL URINCIPLE IS: THE COM MUNITY FIRST, INDIVIDUALS SECOND." If such a principle la good for a community why is it not good for 1 j^etes in 6dsoi\ ^Majda Lamp for. \eye»Y lignliag/ purpose.r iCau It Practices Them. In conclusion the statement of the Alliance says among other things: The Alliance is opposed to the boy cott, to the disregard and breach of contracts and to resort to threats, in timidation and violence to enforce de mands of striking employes," but it resorts to every one of such in its effort to crush union labor in Duluth. It has threatened to boycott firms which sign up with union labor it has encouraged the plastering contractors to ignore a 90 days' notice clause in their contract with the union and it compelled them to reduce the wages of plasterers in violation of the terms of that contract. It has threatened and intimidated employers who have been disposed to deal with their em ployes collectively. Its general pre tences and practices bear evidence that the Citizens' Alliance is positively the worst menace with which Duluth has ever been infested. Barrier to Business. It is a barrier to business progress. It would lock the door of opportunity to every worker in the city who would rise above his job and go into busi ness on his own account. Its mem bers have done more to keep indus tries from coming here than all other influences combined. It is a breeder "CLICKEY" CLARK THE TAILOR jf Moved to 54t Garfield Avenue.

"There is not an 'open shop' plant in Duluth .that refuses to hire union men," says the Alliance statement. Is that so? Let us see. No man can be employed at the plant of the Min nesota Stel company who is known to carry a union card. A manager of a Superior street non-union meat mar ket said to an applicant for a job as a meat cutter only this week: "We can't hire you for you are a union man and we are running an 'open shop.'" trtftON NO. 18* 1 & '"'mmm, I© D1 AMD LITTLE TOT of hatred and a kindler of malipe.

Born in Iniquity. The whole anti-union movement throughout the country is as hypo critical as it is malicious. It shouts "down with wages," while the profit eers are still robbing the people to the same old tune. It was conceived in the womb of greed. It was born in the bed of injustice and is crad led in the heart of Mammon, attended by its hordes of lackeys and lick spittles, who would "cringe the bend ing hinges of the knees that thrift might follow fauning." The anti-union movement of which the Duluth Citizens' Alliance is a part, is without doubt the most pernicious anti-American influence in the land. Its days are numbered.
