By This Plan Employees Participate
In Earnings of Capital.
Profit sharing is becoming more pop-
ular in this country and in England.
The employees of the American Smelt-
ing and Refining company recently
received $200,600 in cash as their share
of the profits of the concern for the
year ended April 30. This is more than
twice the amount in vacation money
apportioned among its men by the com-
pany a year ago, $91,000 having been
divided last June in bonuses.
According to the profit sharing plan
put into operation two years ago, a
surplus is set aside over and above
$7,500,000, which the company must
earn in order to make a cash distribu-
tion.
A bonus of 22% per cent of the sur
plus left after providing for its divi-
dends, improvements, depreciation,
etc., is allowed.
The company wrote to Andrew Car-
negie two years ago and asked him
about the best way to get its employ-

The Grand Army of Labor,
Let us concentrate our efforts to or-
ganize all the forces of wage labor and
within the ranks contest fairly and
openly for the different views which
may be entertained upon the different
steps to be taken to move the grand
army of labor onward and forward. In
no organization on earth is there such
toleration, so great a scope and so free
a forum as inside the ranks of the
American Federation of Labor, and
nowhere is there such a fair opportu-
nity afforded for the advocacy of a new
or brighter thought.—Wendell Phillips.

If you are going- to take a trip it
[ would be a good idea for you to
see a representative of the
and Necktie Makers’ union. These
have a strong membership of women.
In all these trades, while there is
little direct competition between the
men and women workers, the effect
has been that wages and conditions
have been benefited since the women
were organized. There is a better feel-
ing between men and women, less un-
easiness lest women drive men out of
the industry and a greater feeling of
strength as an organization.
In all the organizations the indiffer-
ence of the women members is a mat-
ter of sorrowful comment. Women are
hard to organize and very difficult to
hold in organizations except in times
of labor struggles, when they are even
more tenacious of their convictions
than are the men. When strikes occur,
the women are apt to outdo the men in
their zeal. As the president of the Boot
and Shoe Workers’ union expressed it
to Miss Herron: “Women unionists are
normal but somewhat differentiated
units in the organization. They have
little influence as factors in molding the
general policy of the union and are not
leaders in active general work, but they
are sensible and likely to be on the
right side.” One interesting observa-
tion made by this official was that it is
harder to induce women to compromise
than men. They want the exact thing
they have asked for and nothing less;
hence in strikes they want to hold out
to the bitter end. They are hard to
convince of an error and likely to see
only the details of a question, “but,”
he added, “so are many of the men.”
In several trades men and women
have come in direct competition with
each other and for this and other rea-
sons would have found themselves in-
volved in disagreeable opposition had it
not been for the influence of the or-
ganization. The cigarmaking trade is
typical of these conditions. Miss Her
ron’s account of the Cigarmakers' In-
ternational union is interesting. The
use of improved machinery has greatly
changed the aspect of the trade. Some
years ago machinery was introduced,
by means of which untrained young
girls were enabled to do work which
skilled workmen had hitherto accom-
plished by hand. The girls did the
work for $2.50 a thousand and were
able to make about $7 per week. The
men had received from $8 to $10 ’a
thousand. This serious condition of af-
fairs was ameliorated by bringing the
women into the union, but the trade
has not yet succeeded in placing itself
on an entirely satisfactory basis.
Women are found among the hand
workers, and, although many, perhaps
the majority, are not as skilled as the
men, there are a large number of ex-
ceptionally skilled women with whom
only the best men can compete. A
highly expert women makes from $12
to $16 a week in New York, from $20
to $25 a week in certain other cities
where conditions of the trade are more
favorable. In a nonunion shop in New
York an ordinary girl worker will not
make over $7 a week. The only reason
more women do not learn hand work
and try for the higher wages is be-
cause the handwork is less popular
than the machine work and is harder
to obtain.

During- Strikes, However, They Are

Men—How Organization Has Raised
Wages of Female Workers.
“A Study of Labor Organization
Among Women,” by Belva Mary Her-
ron, B. L., comes as a late bulletin of
the University of Illinois studies. The
monograph includes a fairly complete
survey of the progress of labor organi-
zations in trades where women have
become permanent factors, together
with some considerations concerning
their place in industry.
Miss Herron gives as the principal
labor organizations affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor to
which women are admitted on equal
terms: Boot and Shoe Workers’ union,
Typographical union, Brotherhood of
Bookbinders, United Garment Work-
ers’ union, Ladies’ Garment Workers’
union, United Textile Workers’ un-
ion, Glovemakers’ union, Cigarmakers’
union, Potters’ union, Commercial
Telegraphers’ union, Shirt, Waist and
Laundry Workers’ union; Bakery and
Confectionery Employees’ union. Build-
ing Employees’ union, Meat Cutters
and Butchers’ union and Teachers’
Federation of Chicago. This is an in-
complete list. It omits mention of sev-
eral important unions, including the
Hat and Cap Makers’ union, Overall
Makers’ union, Collar Starchers’ union
This is the Label of the Hatter’s Union.
When you are buying a FUR HAT, either soft or stiff, see
to it that the Genuine Union Label is sewed on it If a re-
tailer has loose labels in his possession and offers to put
one in your hat for you do not not patronize him. He has
no right to loose labels. Loose labels in retail stores are
counterfeits. Do not listen to any explanation as to why
the hat has no label. The Genuine Union label is perfor-
ated on the edges »x; ctly the same as a postage stamp.
Counterfeits are sometimes perfoated on three of the edges
and sometimes only two. Keep a sharp lookout for the

Conclusions as to Mr. Parry’s Union
Easily Reached.
The Fort Wayne (Ind.) News takes a
fling at D. M. Parry in the following
diplomatic language:
“D. M. Parry has been re-elected
president of the National Association
of Manufacturers, an action which
would indicate that the members of
the organization are in sympathy with
his rather radical views. While Mr.
Parry has been right in denouncing
bad men who have risen to power in
the world of union labor and in criti-
cising the bad breaks which have been
made by individual unions, he has nev-
er advanced a proper argument against
unionism as a principle. The fact that
individual men or organizations may
abuse a power committed to their
hands is no reason for condemning
such a power as an evil. The unions
may contain bad men who may rise to
the dignity of leadership, but so, for that
matter, may the Christian churches.
Indeed, if it be not leze majesty to say
it, a far stretch of the imagination may
carry us even to the point where we
can conceive of the National Associa-
tion of Manufacturers being officered
by prejudiced, unreasoning and selfish
men.”
The Journal does not believe that the
imagination will be damaged to any
great extent by stretching it in the
manner the News suggests. In fact, a
great amount of imagination is not
needed to arrive at the conclusion
rea ch ed.— Typograph ical Journal.

Strength of the Longshoremen,
The official report shows that the
longshoremen have now 691 local un-
ions, with a membership of nearly 100,-
000, scattered over all parts of the
American continent and the West
Indies.
A Label Sermonette.
A prominent student of sociology
who recently paid a visit to one of the
state penitentiaries of the central west
is reported as saying:
“In going through the contract cigar
factory of the prison I saw six con-
victs in advanced stages of consump-
tion making cigars. They would
moisten the wrappers with their
tongues and lips.”
Moral: Call for the blue label and
you don’t run any chances of getting a
cigar made by one of those fellows.-
Typographical Journal.
Diference of Opinion Among Mem-
bers of the Typothetae.
The United Typothetae of America
has been getting all worked up over
the trade school proposition, says
Typographical Journal. Those at the
head of the organization were of the
belief that schools established in va-
rious parts of the country, under the
control of the typothetae, would mean
the solution of the “labor question.”
Accordingly master printers in differ-
ent parts of the country were com-
municated with, and they were asked
to give their views on the subject.
About a hundred replies were received,
and a typothetae organ publishes ex-
tracts from the letters of the employ-
ers.
One proprietor does not favor the
trade school, as he says, “The open
shop will accomplish the same result.”
Another says, “What is the use, if all
the graduates become members of
labor unions?” Still another asserts
that “unless some plan like this is car-
ried out we will soon be at the mercy
of the unions.” One employer is frank
enough, for he asks the question,
“What benefit would be derived by
the typothetae?” Then comes another
with the startling assertion, “If all
shops were open and depended upon
merits of workmen, wages would be
higher, the poor workman would be
relegated to the rear and the efficient
would seek employment where he is
fitted.”
The following suggestion is offered
by another writer: “Students should
bind themselves to remain free from
union control for five years after ap-
prenticeship.” The trade school plan
was indorsed by a recent meeting of
the Citizens’ Industrial alliance of
New York city, which resolved that
“artisan schools should be established
by states, giving a diploma which shall
represent the right to practice a trade.”
It takes all kinds of people to make
the world.
