Can the People Be Fooled?
Samuel Compere and Frank Mor
rison, president and secretary re
spectively of the American Federa
tion of Labor, addressed mass meet
ings recently to protest against "the
nation-wide open shop movement."
Mr. Gompers said he believed
that "the American people who did
so much to defeat military autocra
cy in the last war w ill not now con-
sent to the substitution in the United
States of an industrial autocracy."
"Equal opportunity before the
law, before government and in the
democratic production of industry
that is what we demand and nothing
less will satisfy labor.
These men talk about "equal op
portunity' before the law, industrial
autocracy and democratic produc
tion."
Would either Gompers or Morri-
son allow any free born American
citizen to work at his trade beside
one of their union members if he did
not have a card in the same union?
No, they would let him starve in
the street or call a strike if an em
ployer put him to work. Is this a
sample of equal opportunity which
they cry about? Is this democratic
production? Or is it real labor au
tocracy? Let Mr. Gompers or Mr.
Morrison answer. Would they allow
a man to work in a so-called union
shop without a card?
Is it any wonder the American
people are backing the open shop
movement when they realize that
the closed shop program denies the
primary rights guaranteed every in
dividual by the constitution and about
which Mr. Gompers likes to prate.
Belonging to a union should bt
nejther a bar nor a requisite to se
curing employment. The principle of
labor unionism is fine and can ac
complish much good but the de
mands of labor autocracy are vi
cious. The public is not against the
laboring man, it is against the la
bor dictators who exploit both the
laborer and the public.

leveling process tends to discourage
the best minds, while it brines to the
material, of which thef,ont the untraineJ.
Efficiency and economy call for the
payment of adequate compensation
to the highly skilled in any line of
activity, and proportionately lower
pay to the apprentices and the un
skilled. In other words, the best re
sults in teaching will not be obtained
until there is more spread in salaries
which automatically gives the induce
ment to enter the profession, to rise
in it, and to make it a life calling
Give Us Something Snappy,
Doc!
This Prof. Einstein person who
has come from Germany to visit us
is the famous astronomer and math
ematician who has recently sensa
tioned the world by giving it the the
ory, or law, of "relativity." Rela
tivity means that time and space is
not infinitive that there really is an
end to space and that there will be
an end to time.
But this editor can't exactly get it.
Suppose you travel out in space in
a straight line for a thousand mil
lion miles, and then another million
billion miles and then a billion tril
lion miles, and finally run up against
the Dr. Einstein end of space. What
is beyond that? If it's a wall, what's
beyond that wall? If it black noth
ingness, how far does that black
nothingness extend, and then what's
beyond that?
Suppose you think of a future in
time of

school authorities maintain that the
salaries are very low, and many men
of affairs hold but do not urge the
point publicly for fear they will be
considered old fogies that they are
hidi, on the average.
Is not the real fact that the condi- j
tion in regard to salaries here is
much the same as prevailed in all in
dustry through the war period? The
demand has been greater than the
upplv and consequently there has
been little distinction between the
skilled and the unskilled. Girls with
verv limited training and less exper
ience have received greater compen
sation than they could have obtained
in other lines of work, their pay has
been very high.
Trained teachers, who have made
a srudv of this most important voca
tion and have given years to prepara
tion, can get little more than their
roorlv qualified competitors. This

IIIXK what would happen if the Light and Pow
er Company which supplies your community
with electricity suddenly ceased to 'operate!
The motor-driven machinery in busy factories
would come to a standstill. The many little power-driven
contrivances which ndd to the convenience of your shop
or home would be useless. Even the lights by which
you work and play would be snuffed out.
Yet the great service rendered by the Light and Pow
er Company is too often forgotten. It has become so
much a part of our everyday life that it is taken for grant
ed. Onlv on the rare occasions when something goes
wrong does the Light and Power Company receive even n
passing thought; and that thought is perforce a damning
one.
In the light of actual facts, the Light and Power Com
nanv takes on an entirely different aspect. Its welfare
Is
ami the welfare of the community as a whole are one and
inseparable. The extent and character of the service it
renders influences to a considerable degree the establish
ment of new, industries. And the more widely that ser
vice is used, the cleaner and brighter the community will
become, for electrical power is clean power. Literary
