Denial of right and opportunity to form effective organt zations. On the subject of unjust distribution of wealth the report points out that 44 families possess aggregate incomes totaling $60,000,000 per , While between on ‘ourth and one-third of male workers in fac tories and mines earn less than $10 per woek It points out that nearly one-half of the women engaged In Industrial occupations earn less than $6 a week The American law of inheritance is condemned an a serie evil and {t is pointed out that according to income tax returns there are 44 \ families with incomes of $1,000,000 or more whose members per n I jittle or no useful service | The report suggests that laws be enacted to PUT A LIMIT OF $1,000,000 ON BEQUESTS pnial of opportunity, given as the second principal cause of industrial unrest, the report demands the immediate attention of con gress to the unemployment situation, which is annually driving bur dreds of thousands of otherwise productive citizens into poverty and bitter despair and sapping the very basis of our national efficiency and germinating the seeds of revolution Under the head of “Denial of Justice,” the third principal cause of labor troubles, the report cites numerous typical instances to prove the following charges That workers have been unable to secure protective legis: lation. That such laws when pa behaif of big corporations That courts discriminate against the poor. That sections of the constitution have been perverted to Protect property only. That courts frequently have deprived workers of the right to be tried by jury. That during strikes Innocent persons often are arrested without just cause, That police power is often given criminals employed by detective agencies to be used against striking workers. It is demanded that congress remedy these conditions by enacting laws that will go the root of the problem On the question of the “open shop,” the report says “The ‘open shop,’ even if union men are not discriminated a, which they frequently are, is as much « denial of the right of coll action as is the ‘antiunion shop.” Both in theory and in practic the absence of legisintive regulation which the report asks working conditions are fixed by the employer The blame for industrial unrest is the breakdown in the adminis tration of labor laws and the distrust of our governing bodies on the part of a large portion of the people, according to the report signed by Prof, J. R. Commons and’ Mrs. J. Borden Harriman of the commission. it ia concurred in with some exceptions by Harris Weinstock, 8. T Ballard and R. H. Aishton, the employers’ representatives on the com mission. To remedy conditions the report recommends the creation of a federal fund for social welfare, maintained by an inher!- tance tax on large fortunes and administered by a commission on industrial relations, aided by an advisory council of em- ployers and employes. Altho refusing to sign the Manley report, Commissioners Wein stock, Alshton and Ballard, in their supplemental report, are forced to admit that “testimony brought forth at our public hearings has made it plain that employers, been guilty of much wrong doing, and have caused the workers to have their fullest grievances againgt many employers.” Soo rdisatedine ed are nullified by the courts on Inst ive in PHOTO PLAYS BY FREDDIE FILM More dainty and alluring than ever, {ttle Mary” Pickford opened the Alaska’s new bili Sunday in her Then he transferred part of the/jatest nrasterpiece, “Rags.” Her numbers into four smaller pans./ winsome personality and ability and drew again until the winning/ were never more in evidence than 10 were secured in this new play.
