PREDICTS LABOR SHORTAGE.

An eastern contemporary predicts
serious labor shortage in this coun-
try and believes this condition will
arrive before many months have pass
ed. 1t refers to the fact that immi-
grafton for the last fiscal year was
the smallest since 1899 and says that
if the European war continues the
close of the present fiscal year prob
ably will show an actual decrease In
our foreign population. Naturally
this is bound to have its effect on the
supply of labor, for in many lines Of
industry alien workers are depended
on to large extent. And it is these
very lines, moreover-notably the
iron, steel and coal industries
are now being rushed by heavy war
orders, and which, therefore, are most
directly concerned in a prospective
shortage in the labor market. How
ever, shortage of labor in any one
branch of industry soon affects all
other branches, and it therefore
would not be surprising if the pre-
diction of a general shortage OF avail
able workmen should actually be veri-
fed General trade and industry in
this country are steadily picking up,
there is a world of capital awaiting
the chance for profitable investment,
and just as soon as prosperity gets a
good start there will be sudden and
widespread demand for labor of all
kinds and descriptions. Already it
is claimed that no man need remain
idle if he really cares for employ
ment, and everywhere there is an in
creasing demand for workers that is
fast solving the recent problem of un-
employment.
A serious shortage in the labor mar
ket would be a misfortune, but even
that is preferable to slack times and
no work for thousands of citizens who
depend on regular wages for their Ev-
ing. Such a condition, with more or
less acuteness, has existed in this
country for many months, and it GER
tainly will be welcome relief when
"the job seeks the man." instead OF
the man seeking the job and being
told there is no work for him. This
latter condition has fortunately been
greatly relieved, and there is now
good prospect that during the coming
year there will be work for all, and
probably at wages better than ever
before. For, of course, a shortage In
the labor supply will also mean high
er wages.

FINANCING EUROPE.

A question that came in for good
deal of attention at the annual meet
ing of the American Bankers associ-
alton at Seattle last week was that of
the duty of this nation in the matter
Of financing the countries of Europe.
Before the European war this problem
was presented in reverse form, for it
was this nation which was obliged to
borrow capital to finance consider
able portion of its business and large
improvements, and Europe which fur
nished the ready money in return for
American securities. But now the
tables have been turned. We have
grown to greatness on European cred
it, for which we have given good Sc
curities and paid fair interest, but it
is Europe that now needs the credit,
having piled up immense obligations
on this side, for which, in part at
least she is unable to pay in ready
money, just the same as we could not
at one time settle our financial obli-
cations to Europe by the payment of
cold cash..
Apparently the only solution of this
problem is for this nation to extend
credit to the European nations; and
the necessity of doing so is just as
imperative from the American stand
point as it is from the standpoint OF
the Europeans themselves. 1t is not
a matter of sentiment, but is rather a
strictly business proposition that this
country must proceed with arrange
ments for financing the nations that
are becoming so heavily indebted to
us. To refuse to give them credit
would be to undermine our own pros
perity and cause stagnation to our
own industrial and business activities.
Moreover, we easily can do this, for
we are in position to finance Europe
with her own money. Bonds sold here
will not be paid for with cash, any
more than Europe can pay hundreds
of millions in cash for the goods she
is buying in this country. We merely
shall grant credit, as Europe did to
us, on sound security and for fair
interest, and the obligation will be
by the shipment of goods
sent to supply the imperative needs
of Europe. In the final settlement,
moreover, we Will largely reduce, if
not virtually wipe out, the still large
obligation we owe to Europe, repre-
sented by the odd billions of Ameri-
can securities held by Europeans for
previously advanced to us. A
large portion Of these securities is
now held by the European govern
ments as collateral deposit, and these
governments can now use these Sc
curities as collateral to guarantee the
credit which they seek in this country.
And when these are exhausted the
European nations will either have to
find some other form of security salts
factory to this nation, or else end the
war.

AND THEY MEAN 1T.

Already papers in different parts of
the country are commencing to urge
the people to make start at their
Christmas shopping. No joke is in
tended in offering this suggestion,
moreover, although the holiday season
is still many weeks ahead. But it is
pointed out that many purchases can
be made now at actual saving, this be-
ing the season for so-called special
sales and the merchants being anxious
to clean ont old stocks in order to
give room for newer goods. In many
instances, moreover, new goods, in
cluding some lines of holiday stock,
already are arriving. giving as much
chance for selection now as will occur
later. And most people know as well
now as they will later what they will
require for holiday presents.
A still stronger argument in favor
of early shopping, however, is the
claim that every dollar spent in trade
now will speed up general business
and industrial activity and thereby
help to increase general prosperity
and good times. There is no question
that trade and industrial conditions
are steadily improving. but if the
wheels of industry and business can
be set humming early in the fall it
viii put an end to some problems
that still linger. such as unemploy-
ment. and win also be a splendid start
for another year of even greater pros

MIR. SPRoULE SPEAKS.

iaIt is time for the railroads and
the people to take counsel together, y
said William Sproule, president Of the
Southern Pacific company, in an ad-
dress to the members of the American
Bankers association i'm Seattle on
Tuesday. This line of Thought is new,
says The Spectator. 1t will come as
a distinct shock to the politicians and
yellow fellows who have been telling
us that the only interest the railroads
bad in the people was the sort the
footpad has in his victim and the only
interest the people had in the rail
roads was one of cinch and strangle.
While Mr.. Sproule's thought was new
and surprising, it was sincere; Mr..
Sproule has reached that enviable po-
sition and age in life when he can
afford to think what he pleases and
say what he means.
But why should we be surprised
when he tells us that the people and
the railroads should take counsel to-
gether, without the Intervention Of
the politicians who prey on people
and railroads alike Mr.. Sproule tells
us that the steam railroads have about
100000 shareholders and about j.
100000 employees. That is lot OF
those whom we call the people, and
when we take from the railroads their
earning capacity, we disturb the social
and business relations of very large
army of men and women.
But this army is but a small frac-
tion of the myriad that has deep
and direct interest in the prosperity
of the railroads. In the savings banks
of the country are about 100000
depositors; these banks carry between
eight hundred million and nine nun
dred million dollars worth of railroad
bonds and stock, which help pay the
interest of the 100000 depositors.
And there are more people who are
deeply interested in the prosperity of
the railroads.&c. 34,OO0,00O insur-
ance policy holders, whose policies are
practically guaranteed by the railroad
bonds held by the insurance compan-
les.
1t would appear, therefore, that the
people have a deep interest in the
railroads, and that when the politi-
clans and yellow fellows try to choke
the railroads. they are really strang-
ling the people. As Mr.. Sproule says,
cit is time for the railroads and the
people TO take counsel together, F"
without the Intervention of the pOliti-
cal and journalistic thugs. to the end
that the choking and strangling may

WILL RoUMANIA BE NEXT?

Dispatches from Europe seem to In
dicate an approaching break between
Roumania and the Teutonie allies.
Roumania is recalling her reservists
and giving other evidences OF prepar-
alton for hostilities. She apparently
is expecting a declaration of war from
the dual monarchy and it is pointed
out this expectation is nNt without
considerable basis. For over a month
Germany and Austria-Hungary have
assumed a different tone toward the
little country whose geographical po-
sition makes it so important in the
prosecution of the great war. at first
Germany sought to persuade Its ally
to make liberal concessions to Rou-
mania. But recently the German press
and divers official utteranees have
been of defiant character.
Several weeks ago, Roumania was
charged with unneutral conduct, in
preventing the transit of supplies to
Turkey. Roumania insisted that con-
traband was being concealed in nom
contraband shipments and that its in
ception of such commerce was in the
interest of neutrality. There were
threats that if Roumania persisted in
its course the Teutonic allies would
cease to buy agricultural products
from Roumania. 1t was thought this
would work such general hardship
on the population, seventy per cent
of which is engaged in agriculture,
that the government could not risk
the disaffection.
But it seems that Roumania has
taken the aggressive. 1t has itself
prevented the export of grain and has
even forbidden the transit of gold to
Turkey. 1t is reported from Buehar-
est that the government has Modified
the grain raisers by promising to ad-
vance from the public treasury sixty
per cent of the value of products on
which an embargo has been placed.
Unless the government is being aided
by the allies, this is large under
taking.
So far as sympathies are concerned.
the Rormanians, in spite of their pro-
fessions of neutrality, favor the allies.
A large majority of the people belong
to the Russian church and they dis
like their Teutonie neighbors, much
as they have done for the development
of their mines and manufactures.
Roumania. in case of war, will greatly
aid the allies, not only by its strategic
position. but by furnishing troops. 1t
has a war strength of $4,000 men
and there are over 100000 morgan
lied men available for military duty.

TALK OF PEACE.

Persons who stop to think do not
put much stock in the present talk OF
peace for Europe. In other words it
is quite plain to the impartial OBJ
server that the European war has
reached no definite conclusion as yet,
and that it is therefore premature to
talk of ending the war on any basis
that would promise permanent peace.
Of course it is easy to understand
that German leaders are willing to
consider peace-on their own terms.
Though Germany has lost her colo
MES, she has all but small strip OF
Belgium, she has small, but highly
valuable section of France, she has
all Of Russian Poland and some of
Russia, and she still is in position to
get more. Certainly there is no coun-
try at war that is in better position to
debate peace terms than Germany.
But there can be no peace unless the
members of the quadruple entente
consent to it. And though every ma
ton engaged must now have enough
Of war, it is highly improbable that
the allies would today embrace an op-
portunity to talk peace terms.
Even Russia, though vast area of
its territory is overrun by Teuton
troops, still has it's army relatively
intact. It's scanty supplies of NUM-
tions Of war must by this time be
rapidly increasing through purchases
from Japan and the United States. If
Russia can keep its armies uncon-
quered until the early Russian winter
sets in, there will be long months in
which it can remedy its lack of sup
plies and recruit new forces to take
the place of the millions lost by death,
wounds of capture. If Russia is un-
conquered when winter comes it is
likely to be a formidable opponent by
the time spring breaks again.
France, which hoped to recover AL
sace-Lorraine, can hardly consent to
peace with its iron and coal and man
nfacturing districts of the north un-
der German control. England, which
had expected that her navy would
perform her part in the war and was
therefore not prepared for heavy OPP
erations on land, has with great diff
Guilty enlisted and is now equipping
an army; and with Belgium in Ger
man hands England can hardly afford
to talk peace. For months the French
and English have been preparing for
a mighty conflict in the west, and
they are not likely to turn an eager
ear to peace talk if they believe they
are about ready for the real struggle.
Peace now would mean a victory for
Germany, and England will be the
last to accept that outcome of the
war.
The world at large, of course, is
eager for peace-perhaps for peace at
any price. 1t has seen enough slaugh-
ter. 1t has suffered enough from the
disturbances that have reached to ev-
cry remote inhabited spot on the
globe. Yet even the neutral world
will hope that when peace comes, it
will be on stable and permanent
fouudation-not on terms that will
simply mean an armed truce prepara-
tory to new and more violent out
break later on.

What the workers of the world
need more than any other thing is de-
pendability. Skill is most desirable
and, coupled with reliability, will al
ways carry their possessor rapidly to
the front, but the man who can be
positively depended up to do his best
every day in the week is more valu-
able to his employer than the more
skilIful but less dependable man.
