WAR AND THE LABOR SUPPLY

The war has made about q million
more jobs in this country and re-
duced by about q million and half
the number Of people to hold them.
Not only has immigration from
Europe been almost stopped, but it's
tide has even been turned in the
other direction. Tens and hundreds
Of thousands. Of people Of alien birth
have returned to their native coun-
tries, some to fight, some to work.
Since the war began. for example,
the exodus Of Italians from this
country. has outnumbered the influx
from that country by 100000.
Greece, Spain, and Portugal are
sending more immigrants than ever
before, but their number Is small
compared to the multitudes that
would have come from the warning
countries under normal conditions.
Canada is sending an unusually large
number o. immigrants to this war;
about 10000 in the fiscal year just
ended.
1t Is one Of the great misfortunes
Of Canada, and always has been.
that despite its wonderful resources
and opportunities, 1t lies next door
to the United States, with still
greater resources, more attractions
to both capital and labor, wider
variety Of demand in its labor mar
ket; so that Canada has even in it's
best years of immigration from the
United States, constantly been call
ed upon to send a reciprocal stream
Of its people here.
All over this country the demand
for labor is in excess Of the supply.
People who honestly want to work
not to draw salaries for doing
things that are easy-can get all the
work they wish. The mining and
construction interests in North and
West have lately been offering great
inducements throughout the South
to get colored labor; and planters
South face the necessity to pay
larger wages than they can afford.
Wages in all lines have risen large
ly, though it is doubtful If they have
kent up with living costs.
After the war we shall have an
immense increase in Immigration
perhaps. Or we will have no immi-
grafton ut all-perhaps; because
Europe will need all its people to
rebuild. The authorities are as
sharply divided now as they were q
year and two years ago on this
point.
Much will depend, without doubt,
on the conditions Of the peace, and
on the nature Of the economic ar
rangements made among the gov
ernments. The allies economic con-
ferences have taken steps toward
establishing an economic solidarity
that might dictate a policy Of keep
ing their people strictly at home. If
the terms Of peace are such as to
contain the menace Of another pos
sible war, there will doubtless be
desperate efforts to keep their men
from going away; they will be want
ed as insurance in case Of renewal
Of the struggle.
Likewise, much will doubtless de-
pend on the degree Of economic ex-
haustion of the countries. II they
are able to provide their people with
occupation, to plunge back into in
dustrtal and commercial effort, to
take up rebuilding with the ardor
with which they have largely been
tearing down, then they may be able
