The trouble now was not one of doctrint or discipline. It was the much more serious question oi unorthodoxy in economics and politics. This time my re* signation was accepted without protest. It was as follows:— "Gibson's Landing, B.C., June 8th, 1918 "Rev, A. H. Smith, "President Manitoba Conference, "Methodist Church, "Winnipeg, Man. Dear Mr. Smith:— "After serious consideration I have decided that I should resign from the ministry of the Methodist Church. It is perhaps, due both to the conference and to myself that I state, at least in outline, the considerations that have led me to take this action. "Within a short time after my ordination I was much troubled because my beliefs were not those that were commonly held and preached. The implications of the newer theological teaching that I had received during my B.D. course and in post-graduate work at Oxford revealed themselves with growing clearness and carried me far from the old orthodox position. "In 1902 I came to conference with my resignation in my pocket, but the urgent advice of the president and others of the senior ministers persuaded me to defer action. I accepted an invitation to become junior minister at Grace Church and for four years devoted myself largely to the practical activities of a large down-town church. "Ill-health made necessary a year without a station. This gave me an opportunity of getting out of a routine and seeing things in a somewhat truer perspective. While in Palestine I decided that, come what might, I must be true to my convictions of truth. It seemed to me that in the church, I was in a false position. As a minister I was supposed to believe and to teach doctrines which either I had ceased to believe or . which expressed very inadequately my real beliefs. I carefully prepared a statement of my position and sent it with my resignation to the conference of 1907. A special committe appointed to confer with me reported that in their judgment my beliefs were sufficiently in harmony with Methodist standards to make my resignation unnecessary, and recommended that it be not accepted. The confernce, without dissent, accepted the recommnedation. "What could I do? Left intellectually free, I gratefully accepted the renewed opportunity for service. For six years, as superintendent of All People's Mission, I threw myself heartily into all kinds of social service work. Encouraged by my own experience, I thought that the church was awakening to modern needs and was preparing, if slowly, for her new tasks. "But as years went by certain disquieting conclusions gradually took form. I began to see that the organized church had become a great institution with institutional aims and ambitions. With the existence of a number of denominations, this meant keen rivalry. In many cases the interests of the community were made subservient to the interests of the church. Further, the church, as many other institutions, was becoming increasingly commercialized. This meant the control of the policies of the church by men of wealth, and in many cases, the temptation for the minister to become financial agent rather than a moral and spiritual leader. It meant, also, that anything like a radical programme of social reforms became in practice almost impossible. In my own particular work among the immigrant peoples I felt that I, at least, could give more effective service outside denominational lines. Intellectual freedom was not sufficient—I must be free to work. "For three years I acted as secretary of the Canadian Welfare League and for one year as director of the Bureau of Social Research of the governments of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

DIAN LABOR ADVOCATE. 11,161. family. age Four THE CANADIAN LABOR ADVOCATE Thursday, April 1st, 1926 With the Marine Workers Conducted by W. H. DONALDSON, Secretary Federated Seafarers of Canada I IS the S.S. City of Vancouver arrived at New Westmins- er on Saturday last after a trip o the Orient, tlie management irdered the company-s agents to sn- mre a Chinese crew to displace :he white seamen on the deck department of the vessel. The "Vancouver" was built by J. J. Coughlan of this city, and ls owned and operated by that firm. The agents are the Canadian American Shipping Co., 801 Hastings St. W., Vancouver. An appeal on behalf of tto white unemployed seamen has been qent to the Coughlan firm, explaining that many veterans of the last war are unable to secure employment, and that It was unnecessary to displace the white sailors already on the ship. During the war the Couglhlan Co. inserted large advertisements in tho dally press asking the workers to be loyal to the "king and country" (and work at the Coughlan shipyards) and now they are subjecting those who "did their bit" to a dose ot moneybag patriotism by giving preference to coolie labor. Wm. Hayes, a fireman »-ho was last employed by the C.G.M.M., is at (iresent in the Western Association for the Blind, at 2213 Albert street. He has worked on quite a number ot ships on the Coast, mostly C. G. M. M. vessels, and unfortunately when he met with the accident he did not think it would mean the loss of his eyesight. Although it Is tlle result of an accident yet there appears to be no possibility of hlm securing compensation, as It Is stated to be caused by a catyract. Hayes states he Is being treated extra good at the. Institution, and is to be operated on in a few weeks. He states he does not want any of his relatives to know of his condition until after the operation, and in the meantime he is in need cf such comforts as a walking stick, shaving utensils, shoes, etc. Thc organiiation supplies hlm ■ with tobacco, etc., and is striving to see that he does not want for any comforts. The committee recommends that a voluntary subscription be taken up to ensure that one of those who was always ready to help others H. NEIL Hand Made Loggers' and Seamen's Boota M6 LONSDALE AVE. NO. VANCOUVER Phone 1181 does not have to want for anything himself. The Iobs of eyesight Is a terrible affliction, and Brother Hayes would appreciate a visit from some of his former shipmates, as although he is being well treated in the institution where he Is yet a visit from his former comrades Would help to cheer him up. He is hopeful of recovering his sight, but may hnve to wear dark glasses afterwards. Let tls get together and do what we can to aid one ot ourselves who is suffering from one of the greatest handicaps a human being can suffer from. Only those members who can afford it will be asked to contribute to this very deserving case. When the committee approaches you and you can spare anything do what you can to set a good example to others. Brother Hayes Is known on the waterfront as Geordle Hayes. The progress made by thc organization in the month of March exceeded expectations. We have not yet received a reply from either the Marine Engineers' Association or the Canadian Merchant Service Guild, but expect that thoy wlll deal with our letters at their respective meetings. Quite a number of seamen in tha deck department of the old G.T.P. are still unorganized, and seem unable to recognize the fact that they should be organized. Of course there are a few who have been members, and just because they have not had the privilege ot shipping from headquarters when thoy desired to do so they have become discouraged and are now acting in n manner detrimental to the interests of other seafarers, who are willing to organize and seek the best possible conditions. Hospital Notes Brother Watton ls improving rapidly at the Genernl Hospital. Brothers Bell, Etcliells, Bye and McKinnon are all doing well at St. Paul's, and expect to be around the headquarters soon. .Mull List Atkinson T., Bailley M., Bates H., Beckett H., Brannlgan J., Burns W.

Worrall W, World Review of Mining Conditions CHICAGO—(PP)—Nowhere ln the world ls machine mining so far nd** vanced ns In the United States, declares Powers Hapgood, former organizer of the United Mine Workers, who has completed a tour of the principal coal fields of tho globe, working ln each one except In Japan. "I could not work In the Japanese mines because of the racial feelings," Hapgood tells The Federated Press. "All the white business and professional men in the Orient would have felt themselves humiliated If a fellow white "matt had performed actual manual labor along with yellow-skinned work* ers. It would have another attack on the jealously cherished principle of white superiority in the East. **■ "Russian conditions were the best I saw. I worked ln the Kuzbas mines in Siberia. They are about as advanced in machine mining as most European mines, but far behind American pits. They have increased produced a great deal per capita by better tools ond haulage. Hours and relation between management and worker are best In Russin, better than In America or anywhere else.'" Notes From the Camps Conducted by J. M. CLARKE, Secretary L.W.I.U. of Canada Even Bosses Object to Police Brutality CHICAGO—While police In Passaic are clubbing textile strikers, running down women and children with motorcycles and showering gas and tear bombs on the workers, the Chicago Journal of Commerce waxes indignant. It editorializes in one of its Issues as follows; "We do not know whether the managers of the textile mills approve ot such tactics. If they do they are hopeless. Idiotic brutality such as this Passalc-Cllfton performance Is the best possible Inducement for radicalism." ■When police In Chicago were clubbing garment strikers, smashing girls In Ihe face with Iheir lists and dragging them to lhe flllhy police stations, deliberately housing them with the female scum of the crime districts, the Chicago Journal PROSPERITY ANII PRODUCTION T OOKING at things from the viaw- *J point of the lumber barons tho much heralded "prosperity" In B.C. Is here at last. Wages have been gradually squeezed lower land lower nnd lower, and In the cuse of the lower paid workers In Ihe logging industry, hove been squeezed below the level of a living wage. The old days ot the gang coming, the gang going, and the gang on the job have been revived. Conditions on the job hnve become so bad that ln the majority of camps men wlll stay only the length of time required to make fare both ways, and secure a dollar or two with which to resume the wild goose chase for another camp with better conditions. This does the boss no harm as the flooding of the logging Industry with "agriculturists" from Europe makes It easy for hlm to keep the camps well filled. Our fellow workers, the contract fallers and buckers, arc finding prices so low that lt is Impossible for them to make wages, and many of them can now be found working In the steel, grade nnd section gangs. During this month Thompson nnd Clark, Vancouver Island, shipped in Japanese fallers anil buckers. This firm, owing to low wuges and had conditions, has been unable to hold white labor on the job. Lumber Interests In the U. S. ure complaining that the low wages paid In n. C. places them at a disadvantage in the lumber market. Production of B. C. logs is increasing every year. The price of logs Is good. The overhead--*-whlc!i is usually synonymous with wages In the B. C. lumber baron's mind —ls dropping lower and lower, nnd so fsr thc boss prosperity is here. "A worker Ib not only entitled to enough food, clothing and shelter to live upon, but he Bhould havo above that a sufficient margin to permit him to enjoy thc better tilings of life, and protect himself against the uncertainties of the future." What has "prosperity" and Increased production brought tto lumber workers ot B. C? It has brought him lower wages, his employment has become seasonal In character, and his money wage Insufficient to tido him over the periodical shut-downsi that occur every year ln the Industry. , Let us hope that his increasing measure of degradation will supply the stimulus necessary to make the working loggers git together nnd organize for the protection of his own interests.

It prevents the employer federation from starting the Inevitable conflict on Its own ground. The agreement to return to work came only after the national leaders of the metal unions agreed to support the local wage demands. Thus the London area loins Manchester In pressing for an immediate increase of 4.S6 ln the weekly pav of metal workers. Por two years the unions have entrench high profits on the basis ot sweated wages all around. The mine owners and metal trades masters have shown their hand. They have declared a truceless war on the workers and their standard of life." Flnanclal reports ot thirty-three metal concerns picked at random from the industry prove the hypocrisy of their claimed Inability to make adequate profits while paying present wages. The combined been negotiating for this increase proms °' theae comI>anleB amount- nationally. But tlie employer federation stalled along paying wages considerably below prewar in purchasing power. The union decision to press the matter locally or by districts made the employers threaten that any local movement will be met with a national lockout. The employers, however, wanted a better public justification for sucli a lockout, than their attack on union standards provided. So they charged that the Hoo employees by au unauthorized strike had violated the existing agreement. The unions kept tho issue clear by Bulgaria The tendency for unity in the lulgarlan trade union movement Is itrongly seen in the organ of the s"en"(li"ng7be~Hoe"workers back "to the public.

Pro-employer evidence before the government committee on trade ln 1924 gave the 1923 profits of thirty-one metal trade concerns as 20 per cent, above the boom years 1911-13. This makes the 1924-25 profits more than half again as large as those of prosperous pre-war years.

Conferences are in progress to determine whether the report of the coal commission affords a basis tor reorganizing the Industry without Industrial conflict. Probably the biggest snag Is the proposal that he minera give np the wage increases agreed to In 1924. Throughout the crisis the miners have fought against reduction of wagea or extension ot hours. The entire union movement lias backed them. The commission recommends that the subsidy which maintained the status quo since August 1925 be discontinued. It favors nationalization of coal deposits but opposes nationalization of operation. It approves the demand for reorganization of the Industry to secure greater efficiency, Including application of science to the mining of coal, amalgamation In both the producing and distributing branches, closer coml (nation ot mining with allied Industries, and fuller part- employees. The British metal trades crisis Is almost as serious. Although precipitated by a dispute Involving 900 workers In the Hoe & Co. printing press plant It really comes as the result ot the breakdown ot national negotiations extending over two years.

I think many of us could use those words right now instead of waiting and watching, If wo would only desire to do so. No matter where we go we can see on every hand the Inequalities and Inefficiency of the present syBtem. Many of us, If we would unburden ourselves of that little narrowness and seek to develop the Individuality that makes for a fuller life, would be accomplishing something that would he a lasting benefit. When one reads of the "Grain Flowing Westward," and on the other side how man, ln this, the highest form ot civilization, is begging for bread, does It not suggest that something ls wrong when we flnd luxury on one hnnd and poverty on the other Is there not something wrong when we find poor people's tables wasted away to not even a crust whilst millions toil to make the already wealthy still wealthier? Labor says "Yes," and adds "It's Worth the finding out." When Important questions of child life, motherhood, old nge pensions, unemployment, and immigration are played with by our politicians, is It not time we got together more unitedly and placed these matters where they belong? Yes, "The only way" is for us to link ourselves together. The opportunity for acquiring this knowledge is right in our midst. Every Wednesday evening the members of tbe Independent Labor Party meet ln their hall at Jubilee, when these questions are given serious consideration. It ls open to everybody who desires to bring about a system of equality of opportunity for all. The members of the branch are your neighbours, whose interests are your interests, bnt who mean by personal effort and sacrifice to make this, and other countries through their international relationships, a better place for those who are here and for those who are to come. You will lind that "The Only Way" Is through our efforts, and an understanding of the workers' position. BUY YOUR COAL AND WOOD FROM R. H. TOMS JUBILEE STATION PHONE COLL.
