Speaker at Des Moines Convention Des Moines, July 6.—The 12-hour day and the seven day a week for Industrial workers is a menace to the American home, the Christian chuych and free government, according to a declaration contained in a resolution adopted today by the 29th Interna- tional Christian Endeavor convention | in session here. The resolution was| introduced by the executive commit- | tee of the United Society of Christian Endeavor and will be sent to the con- stitutent societies. The text of the statement follows: “Unrest and open warfare in industry constitute a distinct challenge to Christianity. -Jesus Christ is for the | individual and for the institutions of society—the only sufficlent Saviour. We believe that the application of his | spirit and principles to the problems and controversies of commerce and trade, will promote good-will and es- tablish peace. | “We recommend those who are acting as pathfinders of a new Chris- | tion social order. Particularly do we| commend such organizations as the! Colorado Fuel and Iron company, and | the International Harvester company, for their demonstration of the prac- ticability of the eight hour day, the shop committee, and the wisdom of the participation of workers in di- | rection and control. | “The 12-hour day, the seven day week, the esplonage system, and au- tocratic control are relics of an in- dustrial absolutism: where they still continue they are a menace to the | American home, the Christian church and free government; they remaln as feudal evils that Christian civilization ought long since to have outlawed. Because of them the church is often unjustly measured by the working world. For vast numbers they stand as barriers in the road to American- izatlon. They promote unrest and make for bitterness and therefore are not good for a nation. We pledge our best efforts under the wise lead- ership of our churches to bring them to an end.” Trimmed Hats $3.00 $4.75 $6.75 Values to $8.50 Values to $10.00 Values to $12.50 MID SUMMER BARGAINS Hammocks—Khaki and Grey .............. ceeer... $14.98 Lawn Settees oly ........ocoivvvrinniiiviiivaoiiin.
