SRkexsarrt AT Mention the Leader When Writing Advertisers et rwnesoeeron 0 — = Workers of Minnesota Form New Part'y- (Continued from page 3) for themselves the fabulous amount that remains. “b. That in spite of wage increases the workers have been actually receiv- ing an ever diminishing share of the wealth produced, as speculators and monopolists have been able to inflate prices and reabsorb every increase la- bor has been able to obtain. “6. That the process of steadily raising the price level is a new and ‘effective means of despoiling the pro- ducers and lowering the standard of living. “?7. That the industrial auto- crats have extended their evil in- fluence into the realm of govern- ment and have corrupted and dominated our political institu- tions and have employed the press and other agencies of information and education. to misguide the people and bolster up monopoly’s rule of robbery agxd oppression. “8. That the competition among the workers for employment, the struggle of the workers against the employers for a living wage, and the strife among the capitalists for mar- kets and customers make harmony, unity and progress impossible and must lead inevitably to strife and -conflict which tend to diminish and destroy the achievements of civiliza- tion. X “We, . therefore, advocate the fol- lowing legislative and political meas- ures as tending to accomplish the chariges necessary to establish equal- ity of opportunity and to abolish au- tocrady in industry and corruption in politics: : “1. The unqualified right of work- ers to organize and to deal collective- ly with employers through such rep- resentatives of their unions as they choose, to be recognized and enforced by appropriate lezislative enactments. “2. A maximum eight-hour day and a 44-hour week, with one full day’s rest in seven in.all branches of industry, with minimum rates of pay which, without the labor of mothers and children, will maintain the work- er and his family in health and com- fort, and provide a competence for old age, with ample provision for recrea- tion and good citizenship. WORKMEN’S COMPENSATION LAW IS DEMANDED - “3. A workmen’s compensation plan administered by the state, that will bring to injured workmen, their families and dependents, sure, certain and full relief regardless of question. or fault and to the exclusion of every other remedy without recourse to the courts. . “4, Abolition of unemployment by the creation of opportunity for steady work -at standard wages by the stabil- ization of industry through the estab- lishment and operation during periods of depression of government work on housing, road building, reforestration, reclamation of cutover and swamp lands and development of waterpower plants. ; “5. Reduction of the cost of living to a just level immediately by gov- ernmental restriction and supervision and as a permanent policy by foster- ing development of co-operation, which will eliminate wasteful meth- ods, -parasitical middlemen and all profiteering in the creation and dis- tribution of the products of industry and agriculture, in order that the ac- tual producers may enjoy the fruits of their toil. “6. Public ownership and operation of railways, steamships, banking business, stockyards, packing plants, grain elevators, terminal markets, telegraphs, tel- ephones and all other public util- ities; and the nationalization and development of basic natural re- sources, waterpower and unused land, with the repatriation of large holdings, to the end that soldiers and sailors and dislocated workers may find an opportunity for an independent. livelihood. “7. Revenue for the payment of public debts and for the expenses of government shall be obtained mainly from taxes on incomes and inherit- ances and from a system of land val- ue taxation, which will stimulate rath- er than retard production. WANT GOVERNMENT TO ISSUE INSURANCE “8. Continuation of soldiers and sailors’ insurance; extension of such life inswrance. by the government without profit to all men and women; and the establishment of governmen- tal insurance against industrial and other accidents, illness, unemploy- ment and old age and upon all insur- able forms of property. The estab- lishment of a definite fund to provide adequate pensions for indigent moth- ers. .« “9. .Complete equality of men and women in government and industry, with the fullest enfranchisement of women and equal pay for men and women doing similar work. “10. That the autocratic domina-, tion of the forces of wealth produc- tion and distribution of selfish inter- ests, 'which has proved to be the pro- lific source of class antagonisms and ‘the prime cause of industrial paraly- sis and consequent idleness and pov- erty among the masses, shall be grad- ually superceded by a process of gov- ernment supervision, which shall ulti- mately put those who work by hand and brain in control of industry and commerce for the benefit of all the people. “11. Co-operation with the national government in the establishment of a department of education co-ordinate with other branches of the federal government, in order that a uniform and effective educational system may .be developed in which every child will be guaranteed a thorough -cultural and industrial education, and aca- demic freedom and economic independ- ence of the teachers will be setured. “12. As the freedom of speech, of the press, and of assemblage are the surest safeguards against tyranny, revolution anid reaction, and a guaran- ty of the orderly development of in- dustry and the peaceful progress of society, we demand the immediate and complete restoration of these funda- mental political rights, with adequate security against their abridgement or infringement by any person or per- sons whatsoever.” SELECTING SEED POTATOES The custom of using as seed pota- toes left from the previous season’s crop, after having disposed of the best, must be discontinued if the present quality and yield of the crop is to be materially improved, say specialists of the United States department of agriculture. The grower can not ex- pect to get maximum yields from in- ferior seed stock any more than the dairyman can expect to get maximum milk yields from scrub cows. The best time to .select seed potatoes, accord- ing to the specialists, is in the fall when the crop is being harvested.- Then the yield of the individual plant and the ‘quality of the tubers can be considered. Good seed is pure in respect to the variety; is produced by healthy, vigor- ous, heavy-yielding plants grown un- der favorable climatic conditions; is soméwhat immature; reasonably uni- form in size and shape; firm and sound. The first sprouts should be- gin to develop at: planting time.
