GAY The funeral5 of the late Joshua J. Gay was held on Manday, Sept. i 25th, from Cooper Bras. Mortuary, jDetroit, Mich. The late Mr. Gay was born at Maple Grave, Danlington Tawn- ship, Durham County. in 1875 and spent bis boyhoocf and yaung man- hood in and around this district. 1He was the son of the late Wm. iGay and Mary Emerson Gay.

To assume that labor's forces should unite politically sa that it could have a greaten weigbt of influence than the ci- tizenry as a whole might easily raise, the question whetber the rights of labon and the rights cf the average citizen are not sharp- ly divergent. We migbt ask where labor has suffered at the hands of govern- ment. Looking back on recent conciliation boards, that Mr. Mosher accuses of "an, almost neckless disregard of factual ac- curacy," it is impassible ta recal any suggestion of unfriendliness to labor. The assumption that ta vary from labor's viewpaint is ta represent "factual inaccuracy" will hardly be accepted by the average citizen. The settlement of the recent rýilroad strike wîll certainiy not fit Mr. Mosher's pic- ture of an unfriendly attitude ta- wards labor on the part of the go- vernment. The government conceded sub- stantial and immediate wage in- creases; it conceded the inclusion i0 the terms of the agreement of hotel and other fringe workers, one of the 4najor points alc issue. bts proposaI of arbitration was based flot only on these immedi- ate concessions but that any ar- bitration award might not give the workers less than the final War Surplus and Factory Clearance Store 24 Division St. "FALL SPECIALS" RUBBER FOOTWEAR - ALL TYPES AT LAST YEAR'S PRICES.

Mosher, "Because of the failune of lahor to develop political power, govennment bas been much less nesponsive tqý la- bor's request for adequate legis- lation . ..
