SPEAKS OF LOYALTY
HOOD RIVER, Ore., Nov. 3. (Edi
tor of the Enterprise) Up to the pres
ent time has the intelligence and loy
alty of Oregon City labor ever been
questioned? Has a strike there, ever
occurred? If so, has the atrika proven
beneficial to the labor interest? In
creased wages (Increased cost of pro
duction) invariably meant higher
margins of profit for dealer in tha
commodities involved; but who are
benefitted? Surely not the employes
of Oregon City mills.
About 60 years ago a man worked
for $3.50 per week. He saved part of
that He continued saving and invest
ing during more prosperous times un
til he was comfortably situated with a
sufficiency for himself and family. An
other of far greater earning capacity,
spent his earnings as fast as It could
be collected. Some of which bought
whiskey, tobacco, earrings, bracelets,
etc. The latter believed In commun
ism during his declining years.
Today, there are young able bod
ied men who could earn $3.00 per day
and mow and live at home. They
enlisted for aervice six months or more
ago, expecting to receive sixteen dol
lars per month with board and
clothes; work long hours, during train
ing; then when proficient, go forth
wherever sent, (perhaps never to re
turn) without a word about the pay
they were to receive.
With keenest pain I learn that the
mllla of Oregon City may close.
It is not a matter of mere paper.
Great quantities of wrapping; paper
are wasted dally, and innumerable
pages ot advertising matter that could
be eliminated appears; to be utilized
in kindling fires. Much paper could
be conserved if necessary and perhaps
to good advantage to subscribers, by
adhering mora exclusively to our local
newspapers, and a more limited num
ber of magazines, eliminating all we
may consider harmful to national in
terests snch as those publishing best
means of modern warfare, exposing
secrets of construction, approxima
tions of naval or military strength,
etc. Who can say in this day of an
8000 mile wireless service that a com
munication is impossible to any nation
on this planet? Hence the ever pres
ent possibility of thus aiding the en
emy. Your correspondent la Interest
ed solely In the general welfare of tha
employee and the reputation ot Ore
gon City labor, tor which I seem to
have inherited an lnnert pride. I have
never met one of the employers; nor
am I intreested personally in any en
terprise or Investment Not a dollar
at income is now received by me from
any part ot Clackamas County, but my
personal interest in the loyalty and
general Intelligence remains, and
prompts this communication.
I am deeply in hopes that my son,
now In training camp, may sometime
return, and join his brother at home
in the ranks of American labor on a
true, free and equal basis of social
economy. I ahould not like my sons
to bo compelled to help support and
maintain labor unions or leave employ
ment to those who do. In many places
at present, it is Impossible to obtain
employment without paying fees to a
labor union.
The time for loyalty is opportune.
Surely the pages of history will not be
dedicated alone to the heroes upon the
seas and foreign landa. Deeds of
heroism can be accomplished at home.
Let us trust that when the war Is over
each and every one of us may meet
those who may return with an honest
eye, a glad hand, and the assurance
ot a peaceful conscience saying "I
have done what I could."
