HEADS
DECRY CONDITION
OF UNEMPLOYMENT

Chicago, Feb o5-"The country is
in the midst Of period Of unemploy-
ment and distress, the like of which
the nation never saw before William
Sproule, president Of the Pacific
System Of the Southern tactic Co.,
said tonight in an address at the an
nual dinner Of the Traffic Club.
He attributed this condition to what
he said was a long continued clamor
against all sorts of public businesses
and predicted its end only when re-
turning prosperity for employers
would spell prosperity for the en-
ployed. Beginning by outlining diff
culties faced by the transportation
business, which he said had lost its
momentum" he broadened to the.
state Of business generally, and took
vigorous exception to any suggestion
that business conditions would be bet
ter if business men believed they
would be better.

Columbia Resentment

Members of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee We're given to under
stand at its last melting that Colombia
was becoming very much aroused over
the delay in the ratification Of the
treaty and was considering protesting
to the poew'rs unless some action was
taken The treaty, which expresses re-
Eret that anything should have happen
ed to mar the friendly relations be-
tween the two countries and provides
for the payment by the United States
Of $4,000, 900 for Colombia's loss re-
sulting from the taking of the Panama
canal zone, was ratified by the Colom-
bian Senate many months ago.
The administration also desires to
have the Nicaraguan treaty ratified,
particularly because the government in
that country is said to be facing serious
financial difficulties unless it can get
the money payment provided for in the
treaty for the Nicaraguan canal route.

The Boosters Utility

The booster lifts nothing higher
than the level of his own teeth" the
railway executive said. Prosperity is
real, or it does not exist. 1t comes to
US when the employer resumes en-
ployment, and it will not come to US
until the people generally discover
that their condition improves only as
their employer is prosperous.
1T is the fable of the time to speak
of Unemployment as if it related only
to those who work for specific hourly,
daily, weekly or monthly wages 1t IS
thought of chiefly as relating to those
engaged in minor places or in the
humber duties of life

hope to see again in the report of an
American corporation-that the company

of the government
: "At the recent meeting of the National
Chamber of Commerce heard President
Wilson talk. He advocated for foreign
commerce what his government will not
allow in domestic commerce, some sort
of combination. He said we must COM
bine to get effects in foreign commerce
He said he had been waiting for some
one to tell him how this could be done
without violating the provisions of the
Sherman law.
THE rest of US are waiting for the
same thing. The President said he knew
someone would happen along and tell
him how. but don't think So"

THE facts run quite to the contrary

is followed by the employee.
