The labor parliament was, indeed, a success. Dr. Ward chose as his subjects, Industry and Social Waste, Democracy in Industry, and the Industrial Problem of Christianity. In all his talks Dr. Ward opened the eyes of labor world and church. One, he showed, could not be of full benefit in its community without the co-operation of the other. And now, nearly a year after this industrial revival, what are the results? Are any permanent effects apparent from these efforts, or did the movement, swelling into the three days’ parliament, gradually fade away and become forgotten by the laboring man? A few pointed statements of those nearest the problem of both the church and laboring man will show the result. A. M. Powers, president of the Central Labor Union, has this to say of its success. “The movement has been beneficial, as far as I can see, to both sides. When the church can show that the laboring man is not an insect to be placed upon a sociological dissecting table for amused speculations of theologians, but a man to be helped and to help advance the cause of the brotherhood of man through the church, then the antagonism will be replaced by a hearty co-operation because this spirit of brotherhood is the basis of the organized labor movement. “I believe the churches of Terre Haute have shown that this is the spirit of their activity in their last year’s efforts, and as an individual I endorse the movement and think that as long as the same spirit is shown the labor unions will be willing to work hand in hand with the church.” George W. Greenleaf, secretary-treasurer of District Lodge No. 72, International Association of Machinists, and city councilman, says: “The labor parliament and the preceding church services held in Terre Haute last winter were beyond the question of a doubt a benefit to organized labor. The chief benefit derived, in my estimation, consisted in the dispelling of the popular prejudice against our organizations and the placing of our cause on a higher plane in the minds of the public.” TERRE HAUTE’S INDUSTRIAL CREED _United we stand_: _For equal rights and perfect justice to all men._ _For the principle of conciliation and arbitration._ _For the protection of workers from dangerous machinery, occupational diseases, injuries and mortality._ _For the abolition of child labor._ _For such regulations of conditions of labor for women as shall safeguard the physical and moral health of the community._ _For the suppression of “the sweating system.”_ _For a reasonable reduction of the hours of labor to the lowest practical point with labor for all and a reasonable degree of leisure._ _For release from employment one day in seven, and whenever at all possible that this be the Sabbath Day._ _For the highest wage that each industry can afford and for the most equitable division of the profits of industry that can be devised._
