AMALGAMATION—UNITY—
SOLIDARITY.
1$> O. A. Tveitmoe.
All feel, sensitively, ute least dis
lurbairee of their centuries’ old
chains.
\ fev. uiulestancl i:t a fragment
ary. nazy way; none fully compre
hend their own existence and de
stiny. ,
Millions toil without thought of
anything but the whistle and the
pittance in the pay envelope.
There was a time when the arti
san found joy in the product of his
skill. . . !
it closed with the invention of,
machinery.
An age of specializing and speed
ing began.
Ferment Of «. iviii/.atlon.
Chemistry and electricity are now
pulling the industrial chariot in a
maddening race with commerce, pro
pilled by greed and profit around
the globe.
Civilization is running not.
Like a monstrous rattlesnake,
desperately mad. striking the fangs
into its .own body, the modern de
mon of destruction, spurred on by
new knowledge and science, rends
the heavens and rocks the earth in
a supertitanic effort to grind all the
wonders which ages have wrought
into a pulp of go:e.
Labor, the world's great giant.

Will the thunderous, reverberat
ing roar from the battlefields
awaken the sleeper.
Most things look absurd, ridicul
ous and wrong.
New Shibboleths and slogans
war eries are provided for every
new campaign.
Articulate sound and written let
ters arouse, create and express emo
tions.
The world is swayed and ruled by
feelings.
Reason is a state of mind < lassi
fied and harmonized by forceful
feelings.
Right is something which agrees
with one's peculiar process of rea
soning.
Everything upon this earth and
arourd it, throughout the universe,
is still in a chaotic ferment.
The Process Of Change.
There is a constant and powerful
process permeating it all from the
lowest to the highest.
Every atom, molecule, ion and
electron is persistently seeking for
change and new forms.
Wars, economic, industrial and
political .are only a part of the
great universal process.
Terms a
ml words seem meaning
1U|HU»VS>, ..=» ' 1
weldings of cosmic forces-—of which
man and his domicile, the earth,
are hut a small traction—are yet In
the unbounded melting pot.
All transformations are accomp
anied by intense pain and seeming
loss, hut there is no waste in the
universe.
What appears to be loss is but a
transmission into another form.
The labor movements of the
world are. of course, subjected to
the same general process of amalga
mation, unity and solidarity.
These terms are familiar house
hold words In all languages to the
organized workers of every land.
They are not slogans only; they are
no mere idols of terminology; they
have a definite meaning that ap
peals. not only to the feeling*, but
also to tho understanding. Each of
them has served as storm centers—•
in many conclaves and gatherings of
union labor.
Ardent enthusiasts, hopeful and
patient comrades have discussed,
orated and shouted amalgamation,
unity and solidarity at their conseiv
atlve brothers until they all became
exhausted and relapsed into a pe
riod of lethargy.
These wars of words have seemed
like- wasted energy.
That is an illusion.
Men's minds are filled with delu
sions and illusions.
Hence, it is so difficult—nearly
impossible—to arrive at a common
and mutual understanding.
The facts is that idealists, intel
lectuals, radicals or whatever name
they may go by, who for years have
worked overtime on rhetorical phra
ses, climaxed with words such as
amalgamation, unity and solidarity.
unity labor movement
They are an essential factor In
the evolution ol' a more perfect so
I oiety which will bask in the rays
of happiness under the dawn of a
; in w day.
To tht' organized workers of Am
erica, the process of amalgamation
unity and solidarity, has been
fraught with considerable pain.
International organizations have
| been formed, only to last ten oi
j fifteen years, and then torn asunder
—bisected and quartered—and given
to others and more powerful na
| tional and international organiza
; tions.
This appears, at first sight, cruel,
tyrannical anti wrong.
| True, it may have been prompted
by greed and selfishness, but it is
oritrinallv rooted in a natural desire
• for a greater and stronger union.
Leaders may be selfish; all men
' and most women, also are selfish.
Offieials may be ambitious and
I autocratic.
It is the natural fruit which grows
on the trees of position and power.
| Nevertheless, they all contribute*
: to the great universal scheme of
'dings.
Sanely analyzed and considered,
the cleaning and construction work,
which has resulted from the deci
sions and rulings of the American
Federation of Labor during the last
two decades, will be found travell
ing in the right direction towards
the goal of amalgamation, unity
and solidarity.
Both so-called conservatives and
ruuuaia-uicu vi i«vv.‘.0>..vv —
years ago that the automony policy
of the American Federation of La
bor, in its practical application, be
came more and more cumbersome
and topheavy as the revolving sea
■ sons went by.
While every craft and trade is en
titled to govern and regulate its
own internal affairs, it soon became
evident that none could go very
far or make any headway without
the asistance and help of allied and
kindred trades, and that in a real
j conflict they needed the powerful
I support of al the organized workers.
Helpfulness along the lines of
\ democratic principles has been the
aim of the Powers That Be in the
American Federation of Labor. How
well mey navt succucucu me
will be able to tell better than the
present.
It is not an easy task, and the re
ward ‘is not big, except in apathy
and ingratitude.
No doubt there are still too many
international organizations in allied
trades that should and could be
amalgamated into one with a great
deal of practical benefits and pro
fits to the members who only can
improve their economic conditions by
organizing both their knowledge
and skill into real life-giving power.
For instance, there are several
international unions in the mason
industry, in the iron industry and
in the power Industry, not to say
anything about the transportation
Industries, which if they were amal
gamated and consolidated, could no.1
only save massive overhead expense,
but which would be In a position to
organize more thoroughly the unor
ganized workers of these trades.
Construction and reconstruction
are the great problems which con
front the American union labor
Organized workers |n Europe and
Australia have been passing through
the same process, and they will feel
It more acutely after the war.
Even in the midst of the Euro
pean war the process of solving the
problem has been progressing fav
orably and rapidly as the bleeding
workers of the warring nations are
gaining understanding, bought with
their lives in factories, mills and
trenches.
Will the organized workers of
America grasp their opportunity?
Are they equal to the emergency
which calls for construction and re
construction of their organizations
upon a better and broader and more
modern foundation, cemented by a
real understanding of peace and
good will, requisite for reorganizing
the labor movement of tlie world?
They are. But many, if not all,
must begin to understand—and—
forgive.—Miners Magazine.
