CONSERVATIVE LABOR.
At’its recent annual convention
held in El I’aso, Texas, the American
federation of Libor made some re-
ViiarkaMe pronouncements on
’•al and industrial problems.
The oowervative. common sense and
lioldly honest attitude of the world’s
greatest labor organization might
•svelbbe considered and i-opied by po-
litical parties in their nominating
ronvbntions and platforms. If the
jllemocratic party, for example, had
•>ot been dominated by selfish fac-
tions and had been aetuated'by a de-
sire to serve the country in the New
Yjrk convention, the result of the
late election might have shown a
vastly differeim set of total figures.
The most conspicuous evidence of
vise action was shown in the re-elec-
tion of Samuel Gompers as presi-
d- uf if the federation.
• By practically a unanimous vote
the organization refused to depart
from it* time-honored policy of sup-
| sir Ung candidates rather than
parties. 1
Reduction of wages in any form
was opposeil. A^qareutly high prices
are here to stay, for prices cannot
return to pre-war level without a
priqs rtionate decrease in labor costs,
barring a marked advance in methods
pf prmiuriion and improved ma-
chinery.
The federation is to lie commended
for taking a common sense attitude
toward some national problems
which’ hitherto it has been prone to
nppioa<h iu a spirit of intense j>ar-
tisansliip. Tlu> convention voiced
oppdaftion to government invasion of
♦he industrial field, and reaffirmed
its opposition to political relations
with Soviet Russia.
■On the subject, of industrial diffi-
tulties the delegates declared that
**industry must find its own way
through the difficulties with which
It i» beset, or face the alternative of
state intrusion which must inevita-
bly lead to bureaucracy ami break-
down."
’ American labor is saner than the
lal>or of foreign countries. It is learn-
ing the lessons that experience has
taught and is recognizing the funda-
mental law's. With a higher level
<4 intelligence among laboring men in
thia country, and because American
labor has shared to a larger extent
than the wage earners of any otlier
eotintry in the fruits of modern sci-
entific discovery and invention, tiiey
are fast assuming an important place
ip solving the countryU problems.—

TUESDAY, DEC. 9, 1924.
This throwksome light on why 4,-
(MMl.OOO workmen are reported to* be
idle in Russian cities and towns.
A complete list has been published
of the official Russian w^ge scale.
American laborers and professional
men, who have soviet tendencies,
should read the itemized list care-
fully. . . -
■ The lijghest wage paid goes io the
<|p4‘ton«. w>ich ip $42 per month. The
lowest is $8.40 per month.
It is noticeable in the published
list of about one hundred occupa-
tions that those who do the hardest
manual labor and those engaged in
what might be termed menial work,
receive .the lowest pages—a recog-
nition of class preference..
x It is also recorded that the new
scale establishes a bourgeois working
day of eight hours for manual labor-
ers. but only 6*4 hours for . brain
workers. z ,

THE RUSH IS ON.
The Corsicana-Wortham oil produc-
ing area lias again flashed across the
oil world currying in its wake a 12,-
000-harre] producer of high, gravity
oil and the petroleum, industry has
awakened from its short' vast with all
the renewed vigor of the days of its
youth marked by the hurry, and rush
of the operator to beat the .other
fellow to the flush. A hundred rigs
will lie going at full bjast in a very
short time and hundreds of men. will
be given employment. Convenient
train service between Corsicana anti
Wortham for t,he benefit of the fra-
terqity lias been inaugurated and al-
though the active drilling campaign
is in the Wortliam section the oper-
ators and workmen wjll continue to
make their headquarters and home
in Corsicana where every- modern con-
venience is enjoyed. Ttys new field
means much to Corsicana and Corsi-
cana business. The oil well supply
houses here are selfing thousands of
dollars worth of equipment daily fill-
ing rush orders as well as is every
line of business enjoying the bene-
fit of the increased activities. Cor-
sicana is headed straight to be a cify
of JOjOOO inhabitants and the future
was never painted in brighter hues.
This city, “The Tujsa x>f Texap”, i»
firmly established as the center of
the oil industry apd is destined to
take its place among the greater oil
metropolises of the .world before
many years have passed. Corsicana
is now deriving benefits from thir-
ty miles of oil producing area.—Corsi-
