By Nona Lawler. Every woman loves a bargain. There la no way of denying this glaring fact Yet every woman would want a legiu mate bargain instead of a "sweatshop' bargain If she were properly educated to the distinction. It la precisely this mission which is ahead of the Con suniers' league in gaining the desired improved conditions for the workers. This they must do through the con sumer. They must reach the consumer and enlighten the consumer as to wherein the sordid conditions of misery and want among the thousands of work ers in the world depend on them for remedy. Not by oratory or agitating can they help, but intelligent buying. Every baby with a penny with which to buy candy Is a producer of labor. In the recent exhibition of the Consumers' league 'in Portland it was appalling to find the Ingredients found In candy, which is put on the market primarily to please, to catch the eye or ine young' est purchaser. In some cases not only dirt and germs were discovered to be present, but the candies were positively poisonous If taken in large enough quantities. But that is largely the duty of the Pure Food commission to rem edy. The Consumers' league merely alms to enlighten the public and keep a watchful eye on this branch of the work. It doea not aim so much to pro tect the consumer as to enlist the aid of the consumer In improving working conditions. "Working conditions" is a broad, weeping - statement. For Instance. In concerned with factories for women's underwear and shirtwaists, certain con dllions must be met to get the Indorse ment of the league which carries with It a seal as shown above. This seal Is the guarantee to the purchasers that the goods they are buying have been made under certain conditions stlpu lated by the league which, for instance, lneluder, in the state of Massachusetts, sanitation; not more than. 10 hours a day labor, or 64 hours a week labor; no child lafSor under 16 years of age; no work sent out of factories for fln ishingHto be done at night; the guard ing of machinery;, the shading of lights, and backs to seats. These demands are not unreasonable and have not met with any great hostility from the manufac tuiers. The problem of wage " has not as yet been brought to Issue. "Work Progresses Peaceably. The work so far lifts made great strides amicably, and the aim of the league is to continue with Urn work amicably, gaining one step at a time in advance for the betterment of labor without antagonizing either the manu facturers or the retailers. This they can do through the purchaser. .The pur chaser, enlightened on the goods he wants, can influence the store buyer. An Intelligent buyer will meet the de mands, of the public. Mlsstlaa Sonthwiclc of Boston, Mass., who is In the city for a few weeks' vieit with her aunt, Miss Louise M. Balch, is secretary of the Consum ers' league of her state, and at an open meeting of the league tomorrow afternoon at 3 o clock in the Y, w. C A. auditorium, she will speak of her work in Boston. Mls Southwlck first became inter ested in the league when Visiting in Portland throo years ago. . The national president, Mrs. Kelly, waa here tn the city lecturing, and Miss Southwlck be come interested in the cause. On her return, to Boston she Joined the Mas sachusetts league, which Is a state or ganisation, and has become one of the most ardent champions of the cause tn the country. . . -. i.. Her work In Boston. , is to keep in .touch with the store land ihe goods 'they carry. The stores are in most cases more than) willing to help In the -cause and have given much advertising news to the labeled goods. In a paid advertisement published euch month in a prominent paper the league mentions the torts whtcn carry the goods with the league Jabet and names the manufac turers who are- producing the - goods. WILL HAVE MANY NEW AND UNIQUE FEATURES C, C. Colt Elected President at Meeting of Board of Gov ernors Held Last Night, Top Misa Clara Southwlck of Bos ton, Mass., who will talk about Consumer's League work at the Y. W. C. A. tomorrow. Bottom Consumer's League label. This serves as, a guide to the purchaser and p.lso serves as a splendid advertise ment to the stores. Portland's Example. Miss Southwlck told of an especially forceful example of the great work to be done by organized efforts. The Portland league has been in existence only about eight tyears and has a mem bership of norne 200, of which about it carry-on-the- bulk -of- the work. Yet through their efforts the National t-aguc wns called upon by a very large manufacturing concern in Massachu setts for the league label that they might fill a large order for goods for Portland, Or. Though the factories are Usually willing enough to meet the league half way in, its work when their notice Is called to the value of the label, it waa quite an unusual thing for them to request the league's com mendation. This handful of workers in th- far west had made their demand felt by the Portland merchant who, alert to the mutual benefit, had in turn inrormea tne manufacturer. Hence a Urge institution employing .thousands of workers, made may minor improve ments for the improved health and comfort of Its employes to gain the use of the Consumers' league label. A card of indorsement Is also srlven by the league for bakeries, tailoring es- tabiisnments, ana countless other places or uusiness wntri wi ore a matter of concer The board of governors of the reor ganised Rose Festival met last night at the Commercial club and elected tbe following officers to direct the Portland Hose Festival for 1914: C. C. Colt, pres ident; C. V. Cooper, first vice president; William F. Woodward, second vice pres ident, and J. A. Currey, secretary. Selection of a treasurer was post poned, sentiment appearing in favor of appointing one of the national banks of the city to act in that capacity. An other matter left for future determina tion was the selection of a manager for next year's festival. A special commit tee of tbe officers of the association was appointed to investigate the qual ifications of various candidates for the managership and also to select head quarters. Several applications for the place of manager have already been re- As it Is the plan of the new organ lasatlon to make next years pageant the most extensive ever given it Is felt that only a man of exceptional ability can be considered. It is the intention to present a number of novel features. Th harbor of the city wlll'be utilised for something unique that will call special attention to the city'a water facilities. School children will have a prominent place In parades and there will be events In whloh every one can enter in a carnival spirit The duration of the festival and other details will not be decided until the or ganlzaton la finally settled. , The new association cannot act defin itely until after the old organization Is completely dead. Dissolution will occur early In September when all the assets of the old organization will be turned I over to the new. In the meantime the I new organization will arrange details of Incorporation, this matter Having Deen referred ,to Franklin T. Griffith, who will report at the next meeting. An Informal discussion of getting fin ancial aupport laat night developed a general sentiment of basing contribu tions on a fair and equitable basis so that each person contributing should do so in an amount proportionate to benefits to be received from the festi val. It la desired to conduct a fair campaign for funds. If possible, ar rangements will be made to publish the list of contributors so that every one may know Just how much money Is be ing contributed and by whom. At the same time a statement of disbursements will be published so that contributors may know In what mariner their money Is being expended. Present at laat night's meeting were: Franklin T. Griffith. Guy W. Talbot, Wilbur E. Coman, C. V. Cooper. C. C. Colt. Dr. T. L. Perkins, L. It. Alderman, Ralph W Hoyt, A. H. Averlll. William F.-Woodward and J. A. Currey. The re maining member of the board of gov ernors, Frank C, Biggs, is out of the city. Is about $40,000,000 a year. The building of 900 miles of government railroads In that territory will multiply Alaska's commerce by 10 In a short time. Con sequently, Portland and the rest of Ore gon should have a share of that rich commerce amounting probably to S0, 000.000 a year. If they only go after it. The opportunities in Alaska will be opened for Oregon people, too, as never before. "The Chamberlain bill Is sure to pass. It is now an administration measure, and is on the calendar of tbe senate to be taken up as soon as the tariff and currency are out of the way. Senator Chamberlain Is managing it ably. He has the solid vote of the Democratic party lined up for It, with the exception of three or four ultra conservatives who take fright at the mention of govern- ' ment ownership of anything. But to offset them, his bill will receive the votes of all the progressive Republicans, and some more besides. "In Senator Chamberlain, Oregon has one of the most useful and influential meifibers of the senate. I say , this freely as a Republican. When Portland and Oregon come Into their share of the rich trade with Alaska, they will owe it in large measure to the efforts and in fluence of Senator Chamberlain." Oats Attain Six Feet.
