THE ALTRUISM OP PERKINS
GEORGE W PERKINS has aunounoed to the local
Bull Moosers that ho is no longer a partner of J. 1.
Morgan's having retired from tho firm. Nevertheless
he is still ft director in the International Harvester and
other trusts.
Mr. Roosevelt in his speech of August 17, said:
"Mr. PcrklUs Is a rich mnu, He enmo Into my movement on his own
Initiative. I have known him for fourteen years, ami when lie Joined mo
1 asked lilm, Why aro you supporting mo?
"He said tho primary reason was because ho had children. Ho had
all tho money ho wanted, ho Raid, and had comn to tho conclusion that
this country won't ho a Reed place to llvo In when his children hceonio
the ago o aro unless business and government aro brought Into proper
relations, unless the relations of capital and the wage earner aro placed on
a better basis."
Mr. Perkins in his statement of August 20, said:
"Money Is not all In this life. The more accumulation of wealth will
not bring an honorable horltngo to my only son. Is thoro not sotuuthlng
moro than the Incentive to make money which l can leave mini"
The inferenco is that Mr. Perkins, having amassed
all the money ho wants, is devoting his life to altruistic
movements 'benefitting humanity, and has therefore
entered the Roosevelt party as the party of promise to
improve conditions. '
A report has just been made public by the New York
state factory investigating committee, headed by Senator
Robert F. Wagner, which discloses deplorable conditions
m the factories m New York, among them, the factories
owned by the Harvester trust at Auburn, N. Y., the mills
of the Osborne Twine Companv. It is a recital of tears
misery, of enforced slavery, of unsanitary conditions,
of twelve hour slnits, of all night labor and pituuliy small
wages. Four hundred women are employed, two hundred
work all night.
Seven dollars per week is the highest wage paid for
all night labor. Married women are selected for the
night shift. The father of the familv gets tin average
wage of $8 a week and it
the entire tannly to support
"The appearance of the women workers In this plant was very dis
heartening. They were worn and pnle, and their clothes, faces and hands
were covered with oil nnd hemp cloth. Many of these women, so called, aro
only children In age. and they have to lug huge piles of hemp. Weighing 1C0
pounds each, across the floor, the load in some cases being bigger than the
women themselves.
"In the spinning room, where women aro employed alone, to the ex
clusion of .men. who would have to receive higher wages, the clatter of ma
chinery Is so frightful that a voice below a shriek cannot be heard. Tho
rooms arc dark, though for no necessary cause, and no attempt Is made to
remove the dust, which Is kept In constant motion by the line shaftings,
despite tho requirement of tho law. This dust Is breathed continuously by
the women, many of whom complain of chronic coughs and colds. The
dust and dirt are so thick upon the clothes of the girls that at tho noon
hour, which In many cases consists of but a few minutes, and at the close
of the day's or night's labor, the girls have to sweep each other clean with
brooms.
From the foregoing, there
tunity for Mr. Perkins to
humanity in the concern in which he is a director.
Altruism should begin at home. It is not necessary
for trust magnates to organize new political parties to
improve the condition of hiiinauity. If they mean what
they promise, a reform in their own factories would be
an earnest of their intentions.
Let Mr. Perkins put in effect the eight-hour day, the
safety appliances, the healthful conditions, the minimum
wage scale advocated by the progressive platform in the
A'arious mills he controls before posing as a humanitarian.
Let him put his own house in order before reforming the
world.
