ROME, June Italy Saturday
took her first aggressive step against
the kaiser, A score Of German ships,
interned in italian ports since the
beginning OF the war. were eonfiseat-
ed BY government decree, along with
a number OF Austrian steamers ana
sailing vessels, In official circles II
was predicted the governments ac.
tion would bring a formal declaration
OF war from Berlin.
The official declaration cid not des-
ignate the exact number OF German
ships seized, but It was reported that
the confiscatIon order included the
German merchant fleet lying In the
harbor at Genoa and several smaller
vessels at Naples and Venice. In alt
81 Austrian and German ships werc
seized. Their total tonnage is 2l6.-
77O. and their value said 70 be more
than $4,000. 000.
In some quarters 1t wss believed
that the governments action mas
have been taken for the very purposi
of forcing Germany to declare he''
self Though diplomatic relations
were severed Immediately after italy
declared war on Austria and the Ital-
ian government was informed thai
Germany considered that a state OF
war existed with respect to italy no
formal declaration ever came from
Berlin.
Germanys failure to announce her
self has been a source OF great en-
harrassment to the italian govern
ment Pending formal declaration
Of war the Italian government placed
no embargo OF supplies, though II
was known that these supplies might
he sent into Austria and used against
the italian armies.
The fact that the two countries arc
not formally at war also has hamper

Of Italy. the difficulties of traeine

The Northwest worker. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1915-1917, 1915-10-07
The Reason WhV

Because the giant machinery of to-
day is not owned by the operators
thereof, but by small group of CAPT
talist-exploiters, who grow rich on the
labor of hundreds of thousands Of
machine users, the average working
man, with his s51S year, is less able
to provide adequately for a family
now than in 1878, despite the wonder
full progress of the arts and sciences.
For the mass of wage-slaves, increased
productivity of the machine has but
brought to them increasing hardships,
through unemployment, woman and
child labor, the displacement of skilled
by unskilled labor. The greater the
workers capacity for producing com
modities, the less his ability to enjoy
, them. This follows from the fact
that the difference between the total
value of the commodities produced by
the workers OF America, and the
amount of their combined wages
grows ever greater. In other words
the greater the improvements in ma,
chinery and in the means of trans
portation, the larger the amount of
commodities produced each year by
the workers in excess of their pur.
chasing power. Not one of the old
parties, not excepting the Bull Moose
aggregation of mongrel statesmen CO,
makes any pretence of attacking this
evil at the source.
! After the wage slaves of the United
States have produced far more agri
cultural and manufactured products
than they can possibly purchase with
their combined payroll, what is there
for the bosses to do but close down
the factories? And why cry back to
the land" when the farmers have put
away the plows and harrows because
of "over production" or dull mar
ket?" Access to natural resources
alone will not solve the problem.

Compare industrial conditions as
found to be in this country today by
the Commission on Industrial Rela'
tons, with what an impartial observ-
err noted one hundred and forty-two
years ago. That observer was Adam
Smith, the political economist. In
his Wealth of Nations" occurs this
passage;
England Is certainly in the pres
ent times (177S) a much richer ooun'
try than any part of North America
The wages OF labor, however, are
much higher In North America than
in any part of England. The
price of provision is everywhere In
North America much lower than in
England A dearth has never been
known there. Labor Is there
so we'll rewarded that numerous
family of children, instead of being q
burden, is a source of opulence and
prosperity to the parents, The labor
OF each child Is computed to be worth
hundred pounds clear gain to them

dren, who among the middling or in.
ferior rank of people in Europe would
have so little chance, is there fire.
quently counted as sort of fortune,
The value of children is the greatest
of all encouragement to marriage"
II II was possible to maintain such
in this country In 1878, It should be
far easier today when workers have
at hand all the great improvements
and inventions since that date.

A WORD TO VOTERS

Voters of Everett, men and women,
it is high time that all of you who
have the intelligence to apply serious
thought and scientific principles to
present-day evils, - and there are
enough of you to constitute a major
ity-mass your votes and your influ-
ence and place at the head of this
municipality officials to whom this
campaign means far more than mere
scramble for jobs, or empty "honor."
The Socialist candidates are not Of
flee seekers; they are not politicians;
they have not been endorsed by the
Socialist party just because they are
'good"; they have been selected as
our candidates BECAUSE THEY
KNOW SOMETHING. That's it. There
are a number of good men" and good
women" in Everett who could be
placed in nomination if that were all
that is needed. Bpt it isn't. We must
have men, or women, who understand
the causes of jobIessness, poverty, eco
nomc dependence, graft, crime and
immortality. THEY MUST BE PO-
LITiCAL ECONOMISTS; not mere
commonplace, uninstructed, tob-hunt
ing politicians; no, nor merely good
men" We must first find out what
they're good" for.
