TXIE MOItXTXG OREGOXIATf, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1916. 0 WILSON FRIEND DECLARED OF LABOR Adamson Law and Other Acts Praised by Cabinet Mem ber in Portland. WALL STREET POWERLESS Secretary of Iiabor Says New System Prevents Panics and Provides More Flexible Financial Strength for Country. (Continued From First faga) n-ig-. "is what we are proud to call a product of the labor movement. He Is a typical example of the kind of man the labor movement produces." Secretary Wilson took up the Adam eon law early In his address. "I presume I will be expected to talk to you tonight on the achievements of the Wilson Administration in behalf of the wage earners of the country," he began. "The person who simply ab sorbs the achievements of the Wilson Administration in behalf of labor will be filled with wonder at the mass of social Justice legislation that has been accomplished." He paused long enough to hurl this, verbal brick at Charles Evans Hughes: "I know of no more pitiful spectacle than the Republican candidate for President of the United States mean dering over the country in search of a oreign Issue, and not being able to find one. At last he did find what he thought was an issue, and that was that the President had surrendered to the railway brotherhoods. Roosevelt Is lilt. "When any Republican President of the United States did any surrender ing." continued the Secretary, "and they frequently did, they did their surrender ing to the trusts and combinations of capital. To mention one example, I tall to mind that Theodore Roosevelt permitted the United States Steel Cor poration to absorb the Tennessee Coal & Iron Company, contrary to the antl , trust law, and excused his action by saying it was for the public welfare. "Now the great trouble with Mr. Hughes was that he did not investigate far enough to find there had already been a number of investigations on this railroad situation." Continuing, he declared that the De partment of Labor, and prior to its time the Bureau of Labor, over a period of more than 30 years, had been compiling data on hours, wages and conditions of labor, and the President sent for these data. Other Eight-Hour Laws Cited. Among the facts disclosed by these data, said Secretary Wilson, were that the building trades, the mining trades, the printing trades, the stonecuttlng trades and others, already had had the eight-hour day for years, that the eight-hour day had been adopted by numerous municipalities, and that the United States Government had ex tended the eight-hour day to apply not only to Government employes, - but to employes under contractors, and sub contractors on Government work. "The President, after hearing the ar guments of both sides," sald Secretary . Wilson, "came to the conclusion that an eight-hour day is one of the prin ciples of industrial life, and that there re some principles not susceptible to arbitration." . The Secretary did not discuss directly the charge that the Adamson law really Is not an eight-hour law at all. but a. wage law. However, he emphasized the eight-hour feature of the measure when he said: , Overtime Abolition Desired. "Railroad crews have frequently had to work 12. 14 and 16 hours a day. and so the brotherhood chiefs insisted on one and one-half pay for overtime, not to make more wages by working over time, but so as to make it to the Inter est of the railroads not to work them more than the regular time." He declared that for the President to have stood for arbitration of the eight-hour principle, after the men had nccepted. but the railroads had refused his proffer tf an eight-hour day, with a commission to be appointed to study Its workings and to adjust the question of overtime, would have been "a sur render to Wall Street." "He submitted the matter to Con. Kress and Congress approved his stand by an overwhelming vote," the Secre tary went on. "Seventy Republicans voted for toe measure. And every . time air. Hughes takes a slap at the Adamson law he slaps 70 members of his own party, including 'Uncle Joe tannon. "Gold Brick" Talked Over. -concerning this "gold brick" talk. mat tne jaw is unconstitutional, etc. cuntinuea secretary Wilson, "let me say this: Before the law had passed congress, tne question of gold brick came up. One of the brotherhood presi dents, in the presence of the other three, said to me: " 'We doc't know what the Supreme Court will do. It may declare the act unconstitutional, though there is a 16- nour law already for railroad worker and a nine-hour law fox telegraph op erators, and if they are' constitutional I don't see why an eight-hour law is not constitutional, too. and it may de. ciare the law constitutional. But this much I know, that when the Congress oi tne unuett states, with the Presi dent behind it. passes by overwhelming vote an eight-hour law. the railway jirraiaems wm eventually give us an eigm-no.ur aay ana we won t have to strike fdr it!'" j Reserve Lavr Called Safeguard. Prom the Adamson law. Secretary Wilson discussed the Federal reserve law, which lie said afforded protection for labor through bringing about an equitable distribution of reserve funds through the country under such safe guards that a panic cannot tie them up. instead of having all the reserve funds centered in New York. "With the passage of the -currency bill.'.' said the Secretary, "the control of Wall street over the financial insti tutions of the United States is broken forever." Taking up the Clayton anti-trust law. Secretary Wilson declared it to be replete with great labor features. "Under former anti-trust legislation," said he, "the misdeeds of a corporation were punished by fining the corpora tion. The fines came out of the treas ury of the corporation, thereby coming out of the pockets of stockholders In nocent even of knowledge of wrongdo Ing, while the officers responsible es caped scot-free. Responsibility Now Personal. "But the element of personal respon sibility goes into the new act. If any person having direct control over a cor poration directs that corporation to'vio late the law, he is held responsible and may be fined or sent to jail like any other person." He went on to cite the . feature in the Clayton act by which a court of equity can no longer Issue an injunc tion In labor disputes, and what he termed "the climax of all, the assertion that the labor of a human being is not a marketable commodity." 'When that act was adopted a strug gle of 600 years on the part of wage earners for social Justice and human rights came to a successful conclu sion." - He went-on to explain that, roughly speakingone big distinction between a court of law and an equity court was that a tcourt of law considered actions of man against man, with the privilege of a trial-.by jury,' while in an equity court the issue involved was that of man against property. Property Right Required. "No one could get jurisdiction In the equity courts In a labor case," ho said, "without having' a property right in that labor. And no one could have a property right in labor without hav in a property right in you and me. ay declaring that labor is not a marketable commodity, the Clayton law destroyed the Jurisdiction of the equity courts and the American' worker was able to stand up with a soul that-was at last his own. "If the Wilson Administration had never passed another act than the Clayton act. It is deserving of a vote of confidence from every wage-earner in the country and from every lover of liberty." He cited as among the other action benefiting labor to be enacted under the Wilson Administration the crea tion of the Department of Labor, "by which for the first time in the his tory of the country labor has a voice in the councils of the Government"; various eight-hour laws, and the child labor act. Own Experiences Related In discussing the child labor law. Secretary Wilson spoke of his own ex perience as a boy of nine years start ing to labor in the coal mines, so wee a fellow that his lunch pail dragged on the ties when he walked. "When I burned the midnight oil years later In painful drudgery to make up the handicap that had been imposed on me by lack of opportunity in my youth," said the Secretary. "I pledged myself to devote all my energy, when ever the chance should come to me, to obtaining the opportunity I never had for my boys and girls and your boys and girls. And when President Wilson signed the child labor bill. I said- to him: 'One of the dreams of my life has come true. " Secretary Wilson turned to a discus sion of the Progressives In this campaign. Moose Votes Believed TTncertaln. 'Many are wondering." said he. "where the Progressives will be found. I don't know. I have been too busy to find out. But my bbserfcation of the Progressive party has led me to believe that it contains three elements.. The first element is composed or the hero worshipers at the shrine of Theodore Roosevelt, Those whose idol has not yet been shattered will un doubtedly follows; him back Into the Republican party. . "The second element is that com posed of disgruntled Republicans, dis appointed office-seekers and the like.
