FOR
LABOR.

When prosperity comes to labor, it
usually m slowly and grudgingly.
But there has been a marked change
in the past year. Never, perhaps, have
wages risen so generally and substan-
TALLY IN SO short a time. 1t may still
be maintained that labor is not getting
an adequate share of the profits, but
it Is likely that labor is getting more
benefits form the present prosperity
wave than it has eve got before.
The November report of the New
York State industrial commission
shows that in the course OF the year,
100000 employees of 1900 represen.
tative manufacturing concerns have
had wage increases running anywhere
from 81 to Al per cent. There is far
more work and far more pay for the
work done. The November pay roll
for all industries, while il shows IA
per cent more operatives employed
Imam last november, shows % per cent
more wages paid.
This New York situation Is typical
Of the whole country. The gain is
most obvious in the munition indust-
ries, but wages nave risen consider
ably in every important industry and
in every section.
The rises, too, have in most cases
been won without strikes or contro-
versies. Capital, more fully occupied
than for many years. has been bidding
for labor, and the workingman in
stead OF the capitalist has been in the
proud position of debating terms.

THE SPRINGS
OF CHARITY.

Il have eagerly maze my humble
onering TO the Belgians and the Eng.
lIsn and the French" writes a chart.
table woman. but reports of English
and French contempt for America
have chilled my enthusiasm for help.
ing Hereafter appeals for contribu.
tions from the other side will be read
by me and quickly forgotten"
This woman's attitude may be criti.
cized, and yet it is natural and inevi-
table. and reflects the sentiment OF
ter of thousands of Americans.
1t is the literal fact hat never since
the world began has any nation been
30 charitable and generous toward
other nations as our people have been
toward the European sufferers. since
the war began. We have given freely
of our money. our sympathy, our time
and u effort. Even the Ford pcac
expedition, absurd as it seems to most
persons, is but the last and most
striking manifestation of genuine
American desire TO help the striker
without counting the cost.
Neither Germany nor France has
ever given half SO literally to allevi.
ate foreign suffering. And then, after
all this. we find our nation criticised
abroad as selfish, avaricious and COW,
ardly, 1t does tend to anger our open.
hearted citizens and dry up the
springs of our charity.
We want to be generous to stricken
Europe. and We ought to be far more
generous than we have yet been. But
Europe shouldn't make it u"nnecessar.
lily hard for us.

likely It is. But heretofore the eugen.

being born was the only important
