"DIvlDING UP"

In school room a wise teacher
placed beautiful rose to brighten the
day for her children Soon, the boys
and girls began to clamor for the rose,
each begging the teacher for the sole
possession of 1t. ITO give it to any
one boy or girl would be unjust to all
the Others" said the teacher BE
sides, it would be unwise, for whoever
obtained it could not get more of it's
beauty than now. l cannot divide it,
for If | do the rose will be destroyed
and each child will have a worthless
petal only; there will be no rose. To-
gether, we can enjoy it; in real
sense each of us owns the rose" So
cial property is like that. 1t cannot
be owned by any individual without
robbing all other individuals; it can
not be divided without ruin Yet each
individual can own the. whole of it's
real utility and enjoy its full benefits.

HANDWRITING ON THE WALL.

British workmen have been taking
advantage of conditions by laying
down on the job. The British gov
eminent has had to make a pathetic
appeal (after threats failed) to the
workers to perform the work essential
To the carrying on of the war. A
telegram signed by % representatives
of labor unions and sent to the prime
minister after the appeal was made
reads: You may tell Lord Kitchener
that we shall deliver the goods" The
workers are not yet conscious of their
true position In human society, but
when they send message like the
above we cannot fail to see that giant
Labor is beginning to feel the power
that is In it's hands.

SLAVES, SERFS AND
WAGE WORKERS

What is a wage worker? A person
who works for wage, and gives all
he produces to a capitalist.
What proportion does wage work
err receive of what he produces? On
the average about a fourth.
Have there always been capitalists
and wage workers? No. Wage
workers are descended from serfs.
What was serf? A person who
had to work in bondage to baron
as lord of the manor, and was forced
to earn sufficient for himself besides
enough to help keep his lord.
Could the serf free himself from his
servile position? No. He was kept
in subsection by the power of the
sword.
Who did the serf descend from?
From the slave.
How did men become slaves? They
were taken in battle and made to
work for their masters. Their wives
and children were also taken and
made slaves.
How were they kept in subsection?
BY force. AS they grew older, how
ever, they recognized it was impOs-
sible to escape, and so accepted their
servitude.
How did they ultimately become
serfs? BY progress of civilization,
and the knowledge of the master that
by giving them certain liberties they
produced more, and did not require
so much watching and looking after.
How did the serf become a wage
worker? By the masters finding it
more convenient to give him money
on the condition that he produce a
given quality of product.
What did that lead to? To the
present system of capitalism and
wagedom.
What is common about slaves,
serfs and wage workers? That they
are all servile, and have to work hard
and live at the lowest standard of
comfort possible.
What evil is the wage worker sub
ject to that the slave and the serf
did not suffer from? Unemployment.
The slave and serf always had food,
clothing and shelter. The wage work
er, when he is out of work, must
starve, beg, steal, or commit suicide.
What is the remedy for wagedom?
Socialism, which will allow all to
work and all to enjoy the necessaries
and enjoyments of life which their
labor creates.
Who is opposed to and trys to pre-
vent this? The capitalists, who get
rich by exploiting the worker on the
land and sea, in the factory and work
shop, in the workers home, and
sweaters den.
How do Socialists propose to cir
cumvent capitalists? By getting con-
troll of political power and controlling
the making of wealth themselves in
the interests of all the people.-Voice
of Labor, Johannesburg, South Africa.

MAY REPuDIATE WAR DEBTS.

Theodore II. Price, the well known
financial writer says in The Outlook
that Europe may repudiate the gi-
gantic debts which this war is piling
up. He states that "the public debt
of the belligerents will be about S44,-
6O0,O00,000 by July 81, and that the
taxation necessary to support and
amortize this obligation, together with
the pensions and other financial bur-
dens of the struggle will be laid upon
a population that found subsistence
difficult enough on s57 per capita be-
fore the war and will be terribly i'm
poverished at it's close"

POLYGAMY THE ONLY WAY.

Polygamy-open, legally recognized
polygamy-is the only means by
which Europe can be repopulated at
the end of the war Millions of super
fluous women will have to do their
duty by the depleted races Of Europe,
and the only way In which this can
be accomplished Is by recourse to
plural marriage. This may sound very
immoral, but am used to taking
the larger scientific view of life. Mrs.

sons, or IS per cent. of all wage earn
ers in those families, were out of en-
ployment. This percentage of unem-
ployment applied to the estimated
total number of wage earners in 1915
gives a total of $4,000 unemployed.
The greater number of unemployed
reported here is accounted for largely
by the fact that this survey was made
nearly month earlier in the season
than the investigation made by the
federal bureau, and at time when
the extent of unemployment was
probably somewhat greater The re-
suits of the Metropolitan company's
study are, therefore, substantially in
agreement with the results of the in
vestigation made by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics.
1t is greatly to be regretted that
no comparable figures Of unemploy-
ment are in existence which would
permit a comparison of the amount
of unemployment in New York City
during the winter of 1914-15 with the
amount of unemployment in other
years, other seasons and other places.
The need for accurate information on
unemployment is urgent The relia-
bility and representative character of
the figures obtained by the Metro
politan Life Insurance company led
the commissioner of labor statistics
to employ that company to make sim
liar studies in the cities of Boston
Wilkesbarre, Philadelphia, Pittsburg
and vicinity, st. Louis, Kansas CITY
st. Paul and vicinity, Minneapolis, Du-
luth, Superior, Milwaukee, Chicago,
Toledo and Cleveland. The investi-
cations in these several cities have
been completed and the information
collected is being tabulated. A sum-
mary of the results Of these studies
will be issued as soon as the figures
are available, but the completed re-
port probably cannot be published
before July.

A SOUND MONEY SYSTEM
BY THEODORE TEEPE.


Money is means of facilitating ex-
change. A railroad is means of ia
cilitating the actual, physical ex-
change of goods. Money is used not
for the physical exchange of goods
but for the exchange of ownership
or potential ownership of goods.
A money system is as much con-
crete thing as is railroad system,
but since 1t is little harder to see
the deepest mystery has been at
tached to it. In the minds of many
people money is placed In the same
category with ghosts, hobgoblins and
fairies. They think that by some
mysterious power money kings ooze
money from the pores of their skin
or produce 1t by some such super
natural power as causes a halo or
miracle. Our present money system
is about rs per cent. good, 25 per cent.
humbug and so per cent. superstition.
IL a money system Is as much a
thing as a railroad, and can be mono
polized as easily, we should find out
just what that thing is and how it
should function.
Money is simply a system of book.
keeping. Ordinarily it takes three
factors to make money system
namely, two traders and banker.
A, who owns only horse, wishes
to exchange part of his wealth for
a sack of flour owned by B, the
grocer. A takes horse to C, the
banker, who accepts temporary owner
ship of it at it's ready and certain
commercial value. He enters this
amount on his books and issues GER
tificate to A up to that amount. This
credit is used on slips of paper rep
resenting, we shall say, one dollar
each. pays the banker for the ac-
tual service of making the loan. The
pay is of the same nature as is the
pay of any other worker and the
amount would be mere trifle on the
average loan.
A takes his money to B, the grocer,
and pays one dollar for sack of
flour. B accepts the money because
he believes C's bank to be sound. B
knows that for every dollar issued by
c, the banker, there is a good con-
servative dollars worth of wealth be-
hind it. "a
In a sound money system, the man
receiving the money in exchange
knows the value Of the money is not
in the slip of paper, but in the assets
which that paper represents. Conf
dence in the sound judgment and in
tegrity of the bookkeeper, or security
holder, or banker, is the very essence
of good money system.
Money should be merely a slip of
paper which is really deed to prop
erty held in trust by the banker. That
money must be made of gold or silver
is one of the superstitions that is
holding the world in bondage and is
the keystone of the money monopoly.
Stated briefly, . sound money sys-
tenn consists of a trader who de-
posits some assets of commercial
value with a banker. The banker is
sues to the trader pieces of paper
which are called dollars but could
just as well be called deeds. The
trader then issues these deeds or
dollars to any one who wishes to do
business with him. The system would
practically abolish interest.
Another important feature of sound
money will be discussed in the next
article.
