Deachman, re a farmer's wife looks at strikes. If I under- stand R.J. Deachman, a farmer's wife looks at the 40 hour week as too short a week for the wage worker. Let us as workers and farmers understand this problem more clearly. The reason the worker is demanding a shorter work. day, is the machine age is taking the jobs away from the worker, and therefore the work- er wants his comrades to have a job. This is the reason the work- er is seeking a shorter work day. And in this machine age the em- player can make more profit with new machinery inventions with a shorter work day than he did out of the worker when he was obliged to work 12 hours a day. After all who was the first to make the worker work a shorter work week. It was the boss in the hungry thirties. So now the workers have a little say. For the farmer's wife I hope to see the day when all farmers have a closed shop and then they too will not walk into a store and say, what are you paying of eggs to-day? Yes, I understand both sides. What is a closed shop? It means that if I am a union mem- ber that when the union gets a decent wage and working condi- tion inthe factory, why should the non union man live off these and get something that we have benefits that we have fought for.
