How a Commercial Society
Aids Industrial Progress

Women know the social problems of
today. They know, and they ought to
know. the economic problems also, for
if the pantry is empty but for the
sighs of hunger and if children under
fed are also but scantily clothed, the
burden of the misfortune must fall
upon the woman of the house. The
appeal of the hungry child is to the
mother.
But woman's interest in industrial
problems is not due wholly to the inti-
macies of her home environment; it is
partly due to her broad sympathies
and her desire to help the helpless, to
succor the nedy and strengthen the
weak.
If women provide for the wants of
the weak, sick man, they may also
help to provide work for the strong
man willing to work. If they help to
establish hospitals for the sick and
homes for the homeless, they may also
help to establish factories where indus
trious toilers may earn their own way
and care for those dependent upon
them.
The women of Seattle who organized
the woman's commercial club are plan
ming nobly. They are blazing new
way. Realizing the opportunities
which lie at the door of this city, they
will help to grasp and use them. The
campaign for more factories In Seattle
has started in earnest, and it will win.

BELIEVES LABOR SHOULD

OCEAN PARK, Feb. S,-[Editor Her
add: In the Letter Box of February 2
j. Butterfeld says without capital
there would be no profit. Interest must
be paid ON capital, salaries to the di-
rectorate of corporations as well as
wages to the employees. So how can
the laborer claim all the profits?'
Let US see. In the first place, what
is capital? The only requisite capital
is needed labor. Perhaps Mr.. Butter

DEGRADATION

n UT of the mire of a nasty suit for
damages, attended by most de-
~ plorable publicity which cannot
do any good, we pick sentence for
the benefit of the girls Of Los Angeles
who earn their own living at honor
able occupations. The writer of a
letter says: Last night Qn New York;
I went down with a couple of gentle
men to a beer hall, and it was the
worst place 1 was ever in. 1t made
me sad to see the girls rustling for
beer and any money they could get"
There is no degradation that strikes
the visitor to eastern cities with more
painful force than the degradation of
women. They are employed in cheap
concert halls, in beer halls, in picnic
halls. The Spiers and Pond barmaids
of London, England. have often been
commented on. But between the
Spiers and Pond barmaids and the
poor women who haunt the dives of
New York, any comparison that may
be instituted is greatly to the advan-
tage of the barmaids Good government
is we'll worth while. If only for its
assurance that in Los Angeles the
women and children of the community
viii be protected from degradation,
and scenes that astonish western Wis
itors to the east will, we hope, for
ever remain impossible in the far west.

WOULD SEE MORE INTEREST

DUARTE, Feb 13.--[ Editor Herald:
I take the earliest opportunity to de-
clare myself as being in full sympathy

ceration of an American citizen (Con-
ductor ]. A. Cook in a Mexican pris-
on, held six months before trial and
then condemned to two years impris-
onment on the ground of ''contribut-
utory negligence"
About the only fault to be found
with Cook is that he failed, appar-
entity, to recognize the fact that the
average Mexican will steal anything
from "Gringo" that is not red hot
or nailed fast
We'll, what can we expect? The
despot and murderer Zelaya, was
taken on a Mexican gunboat right

great nation was to be upheld ana

OF MATTER
NOT TAUGHT BY BIBLE

POMONA, Feb. S.-[Editor Herald:
correspondents cannot be courteous to
those whose views differ from their
own, but must indulge in reflections on
their intelligence and honesty, accusing
them of using "makeshifts" and ''jug-
Cling words to accomplish an end in
their explanations of the Scriptures.
TO such the words of Job vould seem
to apply, "No doubt but ye are che
people, and wisdom shall die with
you" When l write it is to put for
ward conclusions which are perfectly
satisfactory to me. If others do not
agree 1 have no mud to throw at them.
To come again to the end of the
world of Matt. "a, about which / wrote
recently, l say again the Scriptures
do not teach the destruction of things
material, nor did Messrs. Peter, James,
John ct al. look for such an end. God
has promised the earth for an ever
lasting inheritance to Abraham (Gen.
Xiii:15), who, Paul tells us, is Christ
(Gal. iii:16), and those who are
Christ's (verse 29). He (PauD further
says that for this hope he was judged
(Acts xxvi:6) and bound with chain
(xxviii:20). "Mr. Peter" asked Jesus
had left all to follow him, to which
question the reply was given, Verify
l say unto you, that ye which have fol-
lowed me, in the regeneration when the
Son of Man shall sit on the throne OF
his glory, ye also shall sit up on
twelve thrones, judging the twelve
tribes of Israel" Matt xiX:27, 2S). How
could this promise be fulfilled if the
world is to come to an end?
But then how will we explain the
destruction of heaven and earth by
fire, in Ii Pet. iii? THE answer is that
it is an example of figurative language
with which the Bible is replete. The
most instructive suggestion for the
understanding of such difficulties is
from DIR. John Smith, as follows: "By
images borrowed from the world nat
ural, the prophets frequently under
stand something analogous in the
world polite. Thus the sun, moon
stars and heavenly bodies are put for
kings, queens, rulers and persons in
great power; their increase of splen-
dor denotes increase of prosperity;
their darkening, setting or falling re-
verse of fortune, or the entire ceasing
of that power to which they refer
Great earthquakes and the shaking of
heaven and earth denote the commo-
ton and overthrow of kingdoms and
the beginning or end of the world their
rise or ruin With this key in mind It
is not difficult to understand Peter,
particularly when he calls attention to
Gods promise to create new heaven
and a new earth, wherein dwelleth
Righteousness, which, Isaiah says, in
chapter So, verses II and 49, Is 'Jerusa-
lem a-rejoicing, and her people a-joy."

n ROGRESSIVE women of Seattle
have organized a commercial
i club; they will plunge into the
fight for more factories and a longer
and larger pay roll for this city, ac-
cording to the Post-Intelligencer.
Aside from its positive value as a
force in the civic and industrial life OF
Seattle, this new organization teaches
a lesson which may be of value to
some men in this community. These
women know the larger needs of Sc
attic, and If they have played a help
full part in furthering the gentler
movements in the life of the city they
may and will render a service of equal
value in the broader sphere of industry
and commerce.
In recent years women have been
drawing closer to the problems which
grow out of the Industrial and COM
mercial activities of urban centers.
They have invaded the workshop to
rescue the child. They have gone into
trade emporiums to better the condi-
tion of women who work, and, largely
in response to their appeals, state and
municipal lawmakers have adopted
regulations to safeguard the health,
life and limb of toilers.
Womans increasing interest in IN
dustry, in commerce and in all the
material problems of the country is
impressive, for it promises changed
and a better order.

MIR. Butterfield seems to think there

organize and conduct steel corp ra
ton. If that were true. which it is
not suppose we should put such a
man in charge of the construction Of
twenty or thirty story building without

large business, so that all business

training. and we have all seen DUMB
animals trained to do wonderful

The Iaborer should have all the prof
its of his labor, because labor makes
all the wealth of the earth available,
and no other factor adds or ever VIII
add one iota to this result. Which

Then by what kind of hocus pocus
logic can tribute be laid upon labor to
pay the profit. taxes, interest, ETC., on
capital that has been accumulated
through tyrannical, capitalistic, COM
petitive oppression?
Mr. Butterfield says: without cap
ital there can be no great enterprises. "
Again he is wrong. Since labor has
made every cent of money 1t can re-
peat the demonstration, and with intel
ligent cooperation could make the
greatest achievements of any captain
of capitalistic manipulation look like
pigrny -.
The theory that money makes or
earns money is another fallacy. Un-
der prevailing methods by manipula-
ton money is accumulated and comes
into the possession of Individuals. but
to say that such manipulation IN
creases the volume of wealth betrays
great ignorance or dishonesty.
The capitalist thinks he helps the
laborer by giving him employment AT
the same time he is taking two-thirus
of his labor to himself through the
manipulation of that which labor has
produced, and this he esteems as ms
reward for his mental acumen.
The writer has no quarrel with the
capitalist nor does he blame him Tor
taking advantage of the antiq ated
system that makes such conditions
possible. But to such say SIT up
and listen. The end is near. Capital

MR.. CRANES LOGIC

MIR. CRANE of Chicago has shown
WI himself to be such good
A'A American citizen and such an
exemplary business man, apparently
animated by a sincere desire to i'm
prove the condition of his workers,
that we dislike to criticise him harsh
ly; yet by the most fallacious attempt
at argument ever perpetrated on the
public he is attempting to injure the
cause of scholastic education and to
divert from educational purposes pub
lie funds hitherto devoted to them.
Mr. Crane has published a book to
uphold his fallacy, but here is the meat
of it in his own words: "College pro-
fessors and teachers are prepared to
give advice on all subjects. AS $1,000
year teachers they tell us how to
turn out $4,000 and $4,000 a year busi-
ness men. Isn't it bit strange that
1t never has occurred to these smart
college fellows to go into business for
themselves? Why draw small sal
ary for telling young men now to draw
big salaries if you are capable of draw
ing the big salary yourself?"
What Mr.. Crane does not perceive
is that the instructor or trainer is ac-
tually earning the big salary when he
is telling the young man how to sue
ceed In life, but by most whimsical
and unreasonable barbarism society re-
fuses to pay him a salary proportion
ate to his services TO society. In very
plain, blunt language. which will ap-
peal to Mr.. Crane, a gentleman who
is fond Of plain, blunt language, we
make the assertion he and all other
men Of his type, and all who are con-
oerned in belittling the commercial
value Of the educative professions and
in withholding from the skilled labor
ers engaged therein the hire to which
they are Justly entitled, are merely
grating off" college professors, spe-
cial trainers, school teachers and pub
lie writer's. Such men have no means
of controlling the actions of those who
are in command of the financial sit
uation. They cannot ''go On strike"
While they are engaged in their oc-
cupations many of them and the best
of them absolutely forget all about the
question of remuneration or reward
1t "cuts no ice' with them. They do
not figure profit and loss" They do
their work because they HAVE to do
it. 1t is their life. But the CONNER
cial gentlemen and members Of the
civilization that profits by the under
paid industry of the scholars, thinkers
and writer's should be the last persons
to fout them because they are under
paid.
The salaries earned by thinkers are
disgraceful to American civilization.
A bricklayer is far better paid than a
writer; and the man who puts written
thoughts into type is in some instances
far, better paid than their originator
and formal constructor. 1t is outrag-
eous; but Cranes sneer does not amend
matters. 1t may, however do some
good, for it may induce some profess
sional trained thinkers to take little
more interest in the bread and butter
aspect Of their industry and to see
whether or not measures can be
taken to redeem their calling from the
condition which exposes it to the taunt
of the benefciaries Of their hard work
and assiduous devotion TO the interests
Of the American public.
