"If the members or this body have I to tie themselves up by such ad act as , this," said Councilman Joy, "things are come to pretty pass. I don't believe I that it is necessary to legislate against v smoking. I feel sure that hereafter the l councilman; will be careful not to 1 Vdulge.in the puffing habit at meetings ' where there are women present." .

This- provided for common users on all public utility franchises in sidethe 1000 foot limit of the harbor lines.

The fol lowing is a summary of the position' of Organized labor in opposing a propose! ; minimum waee for women as oresented i in a publlo hearing of the senate com-J ter MacArthur, eiiltor or the coast ba men's Journal: . v ' . 1. A minimum wage law would not increase wages except possibly for the more efficient ' workers. The latter would be sweated and driven to iftcrease their earning capacity. The less skilled, those most la need of help, would.be thrown out of employment. S. A minimum wage law, by adding hardship to those least able to bear it the so-called parasitic class would greatly Increase the need of charity. It would substitute for a class earning low wages' a class earning no wage, i ' Man's Maximum Wags. S. A minimum wage law would. In real'ty, establish a maximum wage. , Ex perience, shows that employers seldom pay more than the minimum rate fixed by their employes. 4. A minimum wage law could not be enforced except (a) by organisation on the. part of the workers, or (b) by dras the penalties. By organization the workers can fix their own wages with out legislation. Effective penalties are in themselves impracticable. 6. A minimum wage law, by encour aging the workers to, look wholly to the legislature for improvement m thjeir conditlop, - would discourage the or ganization of labor. The failure to en force such legislation would leave the workers entirely; at the mercy of their employers. Means Other &aws 6. A minimum wage law would be used as a precedent for the enactment of other laws, which, under the pretense of "public interest" and In return for favors ' received at the hands of the state, would Impose reciprocal obllga tlons upon labor, hampering the free dom of action that is essential to prog ress. - 7. A minimum wage law, by fixing the price of labor, would attach to labor the status of a commodity In other words, a chattel. : 8. A minimum wage law would be an extension of the legislative authority into the sphere- of economlo law, pre- cisoiy as would an attempt to fix the price of merchandise. It wojjld, there fore, be contrary, not only to the spirit of American political Institutions, but also the uniform experience in all simi lar attempts.
