LQW WAGES, .RACKETS MENACE LABOR
American labor today presents one of tlje, oddest jumbles
.the American people eveivhad to tackle.
At each end there exists an evil so serious that the wh'oTe
labor f ield ijl eventually' be demoralized if a corrective is
not soon applied. -And in tfie middle there ,is a vast burden
of unemployment which has .jarred society almost frTJta
foundations. '
.S"angely enquh, this burden of unemployment ?,js in
some ways the Jeast menacing' of , the, thrqe. evils. Everybody
recognizes it as an evil, and the strongest forces of govern
Mvfrte industry and organized labor are uniting to
meet it. Sooner or later jt will be lifted. ;
Jt fa.th disturbances at the'end of the Jine that are really
, .ominous. . ... '.'''
At one end there is the sweatshop evil a thincr -which !
has its loots in human greed, wjrjtch, .helps to demoralize
labor .and industry .alike and lwchj8:paiov'foj by (those least
able to pay; women,' children and the aged. . '' ?f ';
M he. oW18 el,d is an evil equally disturbing; the j-acke-
teer. He has been most active in New York and Chicago,
om many, etner cities have felt his heavy hand. In same in
stances he has taken over whole union .organizations? ..in
others he has chiseled his way in from the outside; but
wnerever ne operates he has sold out the workingman, taken
tribute fron industry and helped to raise problems that viil
take years to settle.
Pennsylvania, so far, has figured most prominently"inth"e
stories of swea.tshops.' t is in Pennsylvania that .children
nave gone on strike against wages of $1 to $5 for a 60-hour
week.' BUt there are plenty of other states that 'contain
conditions about as bad as anything to be found in Pennsyl
vania. . ' , . . . .,,,
Two potent remedies for the sweatshop evil lie at hand;
the. minimum wage law and the child labor amendment. Get
these two adopted and have them enforced energetically and
pne of labor's and the nation's greatest handicaps
.would vanish.
" " ' ' ' ' i y
Against the racketeer the procedure is not so clear. Federal
officials in Chicago are trying to quorate via the income tax
evasion law; aud Attorney General Cununings is investigat
ing to find out if the federal government hught not pass now
laws to make possible a determined federal drive against
racketeers on all onls. It is to be hoped that definite action
will come out of this.
American labor is under three curse's. Ve"loyinent is
only one of them.
