The report is a long one, the feat- ure of it which attracted attention at the time of publication being a plea | for a cessation of strikes for at least six mronths in order that the gov- ernment might have a fair opportun? ity to reduce prices, but the really significant utterance shows that the committee realizes that production should be stimulated if it is desired to decrease the price of the necessaries of life. say: "That organized labor exert itself to the utmost to increase production of essential commodities and thereby lower the cost of the producer, to enable him to lower the cost to the consumer. This applies, not alone to the necessaries of life, but to all manufactured articles which are bartered in commerce at home and abroad, and the production, manu- facture and sale from which labor draws its earnings and employers their profits. This can only be ac- «complished by employers and wage earners working together to that end, each casting aside all striving For temporary advantage and pulling together in double harness for the! general good of all the people of ines United States and the emancipation of the world from the economic troubles which now beset the peoples «of all lands. The eight-hour day for | 'teilers is, generally speaking, an ac- «complished fact. "Tt is labor's- duty and it should be | its pleasure to produce as much in eight hours as it formerly produced: in ten, and even more. To that end. every man and woman that works for wages should bend every effort to letting the close of each day's work see that he or she has individually added more, and still more, of mark- etable commodities to the wealth of the world than he or she produced the day before." This is in line with what the Mid- vale steel workers said a week earlier &-d is most gratifying, as showing {hat a sane idea is spreading. There is no trace of bolshevism in this dec- taration, no catering to the radical element, but an assertion of fact that is inspiring. In the past labor has released the strike genie from the bottle, and has seen it assume surprisingly large pro- portions. Labor was often aided in the work of releasing this evil spirit by capital, and of late both labor and capital have been alarmed at its ap- pearance. Now labor is endeavoring to imprison the genie in the bottle again, and an utterance of the sort Re" The committee has this to! quoted indicates that the effort is be- ing made in. good faith. ONLY EIGHT IN EVERY 1,000 KNOW THE LORD'S PRAYER r-- New Trier Sport Notes Es aaa pep a FCOTBALL SQUADS DRILL HARD FOR ALUMNI SCRAP Forty-five eager boys came out this week and all are training hard to nake the football team. Coach Schneider feels confident that with | the host of material to select from | New Trier will be represented by a strong eleven. Some of last year's boys are back and naturally form the nucleus of the team, but each and every boy seems to have the idea that he can make the team which means that the team will consist of fast and aggressive players only. They will be forced to prove their mettle on Saturday, October 4, when they meet the Alumni at the school diamond. A fast, snappy game is I promised te all who can come. Get the New Trier Spirit Small signs in the main buiding are urging all students to "get the true New Trier Spirit." This also ap- ~lies to sports and you" know how he boys work for victory when they now the school is with them. Get he New Trier spirit and come to the Alumni game on October 4. -------- [SALISBURY HOTWATER BOTTLE HOT WATER BOTTLE HOT WATER BOTTLE Our Assortment of 'Rubber Goods is the Largest and Best in Chicago Purchaso Your Rubber Neeessities From Us and Guarantee their Wear W.H.Salishury& Go.
