This trademark is on every Victrola. * It guarantees the quality and protects you from inferior substitutes. : The word “Victrola” is also a registered trademark of the Victor Talking Machine Company. It is derived from the word “Victor” and designates the products of the Victor Company only. As applied to sound-reproducing instruments, “Victrola” refers only to the instruments made by the Victor Company—the choice of the world’s greatest artists. Look inside the lid—insist upon seeing the famous Victor trademarks. On the The real meat of the issue between the Master Bakers—backed up by the Associated Industries —and the union bakers of Seattle is not wages nor working hours, but a vital social principle, a ; . oe d , matter of life, health and human happiness. , ‘ ED ———— —- The issue involved is: “Shall Men Be Compelled to Work at Night When Their Work EASY TERMS 1216-18 Third Ave. Telephone Main 3139 Between University and Seneca Sts.

C., are getting $48 per week, Chicago $48 per week, Brooklyn $55 highest wages in the industry is just plain lie. Union bakers are at the present time supplying 80 per cent of the bread sold in Se- attle, and today they begin the work of supplying the outlying districts. The people of Seattle can be depended upon to support the bakers’ union in so obvious a humani- tarian measure as their demand for day work and the right to live a decent American life with their families. A large proportion of the bakers are married men, substantial citizens, and re- sponsible members of the community. They have made no attempt to profit by their strategic position in the production of a vital necessity of the people, but are simply striving for a chance to live a little more like human beings. ; Here is a clear showing of the real motives behind the Associated Industries, that has for so long attempted to camouflage itself behind high-sounding phrases of ‘“Ameri- canism.” It is an institution sulely organized for the purpose of preventing a better- ment of working conditions that should never have been allowed to exist.
