What of the salaried employe 1 While we have been debating about the seven-hour day for the bricklayer, and the time and a half for longshoremen and the | working conditions of the coal miner, the salaried employe, the man who yanks the | comptometer and wields the pen, has gone | about his job, plugged faithfully for his boss and performed his share of the world’s work without a murmur, What is his position? Is he making a living wage? Is he getting a rightful share of what he produces? He isn’t a member of a union; there isn’t any organized society of salaried employes of the world, He is just a man who is doing his job, | who is attending to business.

Because it has to. ‘ It pays the man who works with his hands for all overtime—and rightly. It pays him extra for working Sundays, It coddles and flatters and pampers the working man—when it can’t stab him in the back—but it will not pay the salaried man a single cent more than it absolutely because the clerk and the bookkeeper and the stenographer are not or- ganized—cannot protect themselves. Yet with suave hypocrisy, Big Business ys to Labor: “This business of organizing all foolishness, Capital and Labor can get along amicably. There is no necessity for organizing.” But the working man does not believe him. He knows differently. Perhaps he sees the salaried employe slaving on a pittance, eternally worried about the rent, the -grocery bill, the shoe bill, the doctor’s charges. z Ask the salaried man! He knows! And it seems to us, that of all the stupid and pig-headed things, Big Business is the stupidest and the most pig-headed. For it is driving the salaried employe to organize. It is driving the salaried man to a point near desperation, just as it drove the working man to rebellion and retaliation. And in a few years, it will be wondering | why it is that the salaried man is organized into an airtight little union of his own.
