CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
jim EDIE TRIES TO PATCH 1T UP

Fairlow and Dick?" l asked Jim Edie
abruptly the next day, as l was TAX
ing him from Dicks office, where 1
had found him in very earnest con-
versation with my husband. Jim
said he wanted to go down town and
would consider it a favor if l would
take him. | had heard just enough
of what they were talking about to
know that they were discussing
Eleanor Fairlow.
Jim looked uncomfortable, as if l
had said something that were better
left unsaid.
1t rather hurt me to know that
Dick had said anything about our
tragedy, even to as good friend as
dear old Jim, but as long as he had
told him l determined to have the
benefit TO his council. l wanted to
know what a man would think If it.
You see, little book, l knew what
l thought about it, and Eleanor Fair
lows letters had shown me what she
thought, but, except for that one
evening when Dick said little to
me about the matter, l have had no
way of telling just how the affair
looked from a mans standpoint.
Jim did not answer for quite
while, and then he said: "Are you
going to forgive Dick, Margie?"
81 don't know, Jim answered.
Poor old Dick is very penitent and
very loyal"
Loyal! Jim Edie, l wish you would
give me an idea of what man
thinks is loyalty to woman. Why,
Dick has never been loyal to any
woman. He was neither true to Ell
eanor Fairlow nor to me. In the box
of letters that he gave me there were
at least twenty from as many diff
ferent women, besides those from
Eleanor. Loyal! You men may be
loyal to each other and to yourselves,
but you are never loyal to u.s."
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-01-19

would consider disloyalty the unpar-
donable sin and unfaithfulness only
petty. l should only insist that
man were loyal to me. Do you know,
Margie, that after all think woman
is more materialistic than man? She
puts a greater price on a mans ma
terial caresses than on the faithful
ness of his soul
you will cling to a man whose
soul is no longer yours, but who re-
mains conventionally faithful and
you will cast off a man whose soul
is utterly and Loyalty in your keeping
because he has erred physically.
Don't you know, Margie, that
from years of tradition and privilege
we are weaker than you. We fall
easy victims to temptations which
centuries of traditions have schooled
you to resist. We have learned one
thing, which perhaps you will never
know. We can give our caresses
without damning our souls. We can
sin so lightly that it does not touch
our better selves. You must not
Judge us by your standard, Margie."
''All very lovely, Jim. Sounds just
wonderful, but let me tell you that
the theory is what has made all the
trouble between the sexes since it
was first worked out by man. l am
so tired of hearing that cannot sin
without damning my soul, simply
because man has decided some man
wants me individually to be his pos
session.
"Jim, there must be single stand
ard if women have the happiness
that man insists shall be his and that
standard must be the faithfulness
and loyalty that man expects from
woman, not the laxity and license
that man takes to himself.
"Then you cannot forgive, Mar
gie?"
would he forgive me?"
''Are you going to leave him?"

guments applied to German efiici- ency as shown in the German army are correct, they would also be equally clearly demonstrated in the matter of the German navy and that they simply will not stand examina- tion. On the contrary, woful ineffi ciency is admitted even among the Germans as most disappointing in even the best ships, and some very candid talk along this line in a German newspaper at the time of the Bleucher's sinking quickly se- cured suppression.
 On the other hand the British navy created by individuals in the happy-go-lucky pattern that has characterized that nations method of dealing, has shown itself wonderful ly proficient in construction, gun fire and personnel.
 So the arguments for and against pile on. Maybe it is an academic question which will settle itself But 1t is an interesting and important one. It is certainly one that very soon will remove Itself from the category of an academic question and there vii; be many who will be- come 50 strongly imbued with tine Jeffrsonian idea that that is the hest government which governs the least, tha. it will invade not only the domain of national politics, fer it actually has done so under one guise or another and under one pre- text or anothrr, but it will greatly effect the workers in their methods of organization, in their tactics and their ultimate end and aim.

1 perts will differ as to the social su- periority of the one over the other. The individualists resist all the ] arguments for government control ' and all the urging for an extension of it's functions ty pointing out that ! every man is a different individual. No two men are alike and hardly any but have radical differences. They point out that the public I school system has been chiefly a failure because it taught all child ren by the same methods and made no especial effort to consider ind,- vidual idiosyncracies. They poin; out that German efficiency is based not upon its industrial collectivism but upon its industrial individual ism. German industrial undertak- ings with no government support but built around the individual genius of the German chemist and the Ger man technician is where the supre- macy of Germany lies. It is be- cause of the care given the educa- ] tion of the individual scientist anT the number of scientific laboratoris where individual scientists can without any collective assistance be- yond the mere technical details and 1 formula, work out the problems which confront them that Germany is really so great.
 They insist that while state con- trolled and strongly governed Ger many is showing an unquestioned supremacy and efficiency in this war, it owes everything not so much to such state control, on the contrary they owe it to the industrial eff ciency of the country far removed from any such control, to the ability of the individual German chemist. scientist and technician,. and the in- dividual genius of Germans applied to the problems involved in the war.
 They further insist that as far as individualistic countries like Eng land and America are concerned, they have failed because the entire system of collective education is a failure; that the authorities in con- trol have measured all natures with standard yard stick, meied out the same standard text books, the same dosage of lessons and instruc- tion, as if the impossible could be achieved and all natures trained in uniform humdrum way. That this collective system of education is the dry rot that accounts for the lack of so many attainments among indi- vidual scientists. and only where these methods are rejected and in- dividual education usurped the place
 of the public school standard curri.

Nothing is more interesting than the attack of Sam Gompers upon the effort made ot the American Federation Of labor convention to force through a resolution in favor of labor legislation such as the eight hour day, Gompers sneored at this political acton in just the same vigorous manner as those who have urged the smiting of the ballot box with an exc.

 As it is, it is scnseless and the extremity of unprinciplcd anarchism supported not because It s anar- chism, but because such avowed la- bor legislation might interfere with the schemes of the Federation's po- liticians.

An exchange prints a statement to the effect that white labor in the canneries may supplant that of Orientals if sufficient white labor can be secured. This statement does not enlighten very much because 1t does not say under what conditions white men can be secured anu whether or not they will be secured for the same rete of pay as are the Orientals.
 The cannerymon employ the Ori- entals mainly because they are con. tent with smaller pay, less com plaining as to treatment and more docile in subordiaction.
 The cannerymen have devoted considerable care to their control of labor conditions end have seen to it that they control the situation in this regard absolutely. They do nor want white mon putting in lest they have labor troubles, and they main- tain a strictly unorganized condition of peonage.
 Although they apparently turn over the matter of their labor sup ply to agents who secure tho con tracted labor for them, t must not for an instant be thought that they arc very indifferent on the subject. They understand very weil when they thus contract for labor, that labor will, be forthcoming and they Fteynofehancoo.
 k.0 JusAp @as long as they can secu.k oriental labor thct is efficient, lowly paid, content ed and very docilc, they will employ or;cntals. When the orientals become dissatisfied with conditions and want better pay they will turn to white labor.
 Therefore if the cannerymcn are thinking of supplcnting tho orientals with white men, we can be reason ably certain it is becuse the Ori- entals are not proving so docilc and easily driven after all--at least they are not as efficient in proportion to the wages paid as would be white mon. Hiring men is a business pro- position with the canneries They are net in the labor markets seek ing for good material to build up a sturdy peasant folk in Alcska or foI tho purpose of aiding in the settle mont of adjoining districts with Virile American citizens.
 They nave no 2uch "u".O-e in existence. Their eaG ia to pay the owners profits and hiring employees is based upon that single mindef viewpoint. If any of the officials who have been ondcav0ring to in duc2 the cannery interests to employ white men instead of oriontGls can show the cannery men wherein they could increase tho gains by so doing we can be sure of 1t the can nerymen would make .nc chcnge to- morrow. This uplifting stuff makes no such appeal. It falls on deaf ears. Profit is the m2in thing and withou, profit the c:tnne"ies close.
