COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
IS PROVING SUCCESSFUL
ROCHESTER, N. Y., Sept., 15
Collective bargaining is the method
adopted by the clothing industry m
Rochester to solve its labor problems.
Manufacturers fleclare that it has been
so successful here that the National
Industrial Federation of Clothing
Manufacturers has been formed to
deal with a national organization of
the workers. In a time when strikes
have been frequent in other industries
there has been peace in this industry
here, except in one plant which is not
a party to the agreement between the
employers and workers.
Shoe manufacturers of Rochester
have adopted the plan and ended a
strike by an agreement similar to that
in the clothing trade. g
Under these agreements, the strike
and lockout are believed to have been
eliminated and the open shop .prevtlf s.
'ihe union relinquished its claim for
/ ■
%
a closed shop. One of the labor man
agers, representing the employers,
says that the union suffered no loss
by doing so but oil the contrary the
number of clothing workers organized
has increased from 50 per cent of the
total employed to 90 or 96 per cent.
As the collective bargaining plan
operates here, the more general agree
ments between the workers and em
ployers are made by a local joint
board, composed of representatives of
the clothing manufacturers and the
workers. Working conditions are
formulated by a labor adjustment
board composed of representatives of
both sides. Its decisions become the
laws of the industry. Appeals can be
taken to a court presided over by an
impartial judge whose decisions are
accepted by both sides as final.
In the shops labor managers repre
sent the employer and shop chairman
the unions. The manufacturers have
their price commodities and time

There’s big profits in raising poultry for egg production under tfce
wonderfully successful Alderwood Manor system.
Just beyond the borders of the great seaport city of Seattle, the Puget
Mill Company, since 1853 prominent in the industrial development of
the State of Washington, has founded a great poultry community, known
as Alderwood Manor. f
In the center of the 18,000 acres of ideally adapted logged-off land, this com
y pany has built at a et>st of $200,000.00 a moat remarkable Demonstration Farm and
Poultry College, where community settlers have the unusual privilege of a free ed
ucation in poultry raising, home gardening, fruit and berry culture. It is through
this free educational system that the Puget Milt Company is already rewarded in
seeing hundreds of inexperienced men and women achieve rapid success in raising .
poultry for egg production. ,
In the brief span of three years thousands of 5-acre forma have been sold to city folks who
have tired of the uncertainties of payroll existence. Mere than ,350 homes and poultry plants
have been built to date and hundred* more planned and ready for the builder.
Alderwood Manor presents a most uunusual opportunity to those who realise the insecur*
^ ity of city life and who wish to engage in business for themselves. \ '
The .tor, of .access at Alderwood Manor ia'both umpiring «d fa.einaA* "oraen ^“o had the courage to
make the start with only a small amount of ready cash are already making good in a big way.
The Puget Mill Company will aid you in every way; sell yo^five acres on easy, long time payments with a low rata
interest; help you to build and stock the place.
If interested, write for the complete plan and the story of the New Life of the Land, which la free-to fhost w^10

STARVATION FACES THE
NATIVES OF INTERIOR
A public meeting was called for
Sept., 3rd., at Chitna, regarding im
mediate relief for the Indians who
aie starving in the Nabesna, Tanana,
Chistochena, White River, Shushanna,
Mehtasla and Betchinita districts.
Some time ago Bishop Rowe presented
the conditions of, these natives to
congress but received no satisfaction.
The condition of these starving poo
pie now is approaching a crisis* Sev
e.al well known men from the in
terior, among them D. C. Sargent, and
John Paulson have sworn affidavits
regarding the serious condition that
confronts these Indians this coining
!
I winter.
The principal food of the Alaskan
| Indians (salmon) has all been caught
i by white men with nets at the mouth
j of the Yukon river, thus giving these
fish no,chance to reach the inland
points. ,
Their only means of clothing have
been killed off by the head hunters
f i om the states— and by white trap
pers, who poison the small fur bear
ing animals. <
On one ooeassion Mr. Sargent
stopped at an Indian camp to obtain
some dried salmon for his dog, and
-was unable to seeur*any. The In
