WHY AMERICAN WORKERS ARE NOT RED.
Tho doctrines of red radicalism, or communism, have
never foiflid general favor among the workingmen of Ameri
ca, says James J. Davis, of the department of labor, in an ar
.' tide contributed to the National Republic. There are many
reasons for this. Among them may be mentioned the lol-
lowing :
The American worker has always before him the oppor
tunity to remove himself by his industry, ingenuity and
'.' thrift from the ranks of the workers, and to take a higher
place in the economic life of the country. He knows that our
history is full of instances of men who have begun at the bot
torn of the economic ladder and who through their own exer
tions have climbed to the very top of our industrial and fi-
nancial structure. With these instances and this opportunity
before him, the American workers cannot be won to any eco
nomic or political system which would surely deprive him
U and his chilren of them.
The American worker is the best paid worker in the
.. world. He enjoys the best working conditions and the high
' est standards of living of the workers of any nation. He is
; unwilling to risk the loss of these advantages by fostering
j any scheme of government that would overthrow the system
under which these advantages have been won, and he is not
! ignorant of the effect which communism would have upon
these things.
The American worker has a vital, material stake, a tre
mendous financial interest in our industrial and commercial
establishment. The tendency of the worker to put his sav
ings into industry, providing capital through investments in
industrial and commercial securities, is a constantly grow
ing one. The growth of this tendency is truly astonishing to
anyone who has not been familiar with tiie course of invest
ments in stocks and bonds during the past decade. One of
our prominent economists, discussing the distribution of
wealth in this country recently showed that the number of
'" stockholders in our industries increased from 4,400,000 in
- 1900 to 11,400,000 today. He pointed out too that there has
been a shifting of ownership from the wealthy to the middle
classes of our people. The number of shares held by each
stockholder and the average holdings have materially
decreased. Sixty-eight large oompanies had 342,346 stock
holders in 1920. In 1923 they had 1,786,214 stockholders, an
Increase of more than 500 per cent.
FINE MAP OF OREGON ISSUED
Anglers, hunters and recreation seekers who sense the
call of the north will find a veritable mine of condensed in
formation in an outing map of the State of Oregon prepared
by the outing and map service departments of the Automo
bile Club of Southern California for its members and visit
ing motorists.
The map is 24 by 3fl inches, and in addition to the high
ways, rivers and lakes, it shows in red ink camp sites, where
supplies are obtainable, where gasoline and oil can be had,
post-offices, meals and lodgings, where guides, packers and
animals are obtainable, where boats are for rent, ranches
where butter and eggs, etc. may be purchased, points of
interest, scenic areas, water falls, main trails and game
refuges.
On tho reverse side of the map is printed all sorts of de
tailed information including Roosevelt Highway, McKenzie
River, Middle Fork of the Willamette country, Columbia
River Highway, and ML Hood Loop, Pacific Highway,
Klamath Ijtke, Crater Lake, Diamond Lake and I'pper
Rogue River, and a list of golf clubs in the state. There is
also a general mileage table giving distances between the
more important cities and towns of the state via the shortest
feasible routes.
Amateur campers will find numerous hints that may
help in making their outings comfortable and pleasureable
and simple rules for sportsmen are given.
The map is a companion to the outing map of California
issued some time ngo by the outing bureau of tho club.
o
It is commonly said that modern industry has little use
for old workers. Yet if you look through the factories of al
most any city, you would usually find quite a number of men
who have Uvn working at their trade 40 to f:0 years or more.
There is a man in Beverly, Mass., for instance, who has been
Khoemaking for 65 years. Some business men think that
their older workers are not so efficient. Thev should realize
that they have a value apart from amount of product. Many
of them will do as much as any young man, for they came up
from a time wlien it was not fashionable to limit production.
It was the custom then to make gxds that would last a long
time, a good idea to impress on the youifjr crowd. Also some
of those fellows are a quieting influence in a workshop when
the young hoe-heads are in danger of blowing up.
