After the War Ends
What viii We Do?

| (From Everett (Wash.) Labor Jour-
! nal)
ut is an i'll wind that blows nobody
! good"
| The war has served to show all the
| people but privileged few who is
| the under dog in the economic struggle
| which has been going on for centuries.
! It is teaching lessons to mankind that
/ nothing but such monseer cataclysm
could teach 1t is showing the people
the enormously wide gulf between the
| producers of wealth and the possessors
,, Of wealth. is showing the people
the fallacy Of long accepted theories
OF political economy: 1T is proving
to the masses that while they imagine
themselves free they are in reality
! slaves, made. SO by their own aiqui-
esience in unjust, unreasonable, in
defensible laws made by and for the
| wealth holding class.
DO the people wish the conditions
existing to continue? Do they not
know it is within their power to
change them?
DO the people wish to SHOULDER the
burden of an enormous war debt
which neither they nor their children,
nor their childrens children will ever
see paid?
When war was declared there were
claims made by those in and out of
power that this would be "a pay as
we go war;"
What do we find?
That the representatives of the .peo-
pie in congress are placing as light
burdens Of taxation as they can upon
the rich (becoming richer) and as
heavy burdens as they dare upon the
poor (becoming poorer).
It must be a thought full Of en-
enlargement to the soldier in the
field that while he is giving his all to
his country he must return home after
the war, if he is lucky enough. and
work his head off to pay the interest
on a debt he*had nothing to do with
making.
Yet this is what he will hate to do,
and do it under the hardest conditions
his rich task masters can thrust upon
him.
If this be a war for democracy. let
!! be waged as such, and in the name
Of all that is just and good, and hu-
name, conscript wealth as we are now
cOnscripting men, to the end that this
war may be paid for at or very near
the time it ends.
The United States is yet able to do
this, but for Europe there seems little
chance to escape revolution, anarchy,
:, and reputation. r .::.::'
f. The United States is in this war to,
: the finish and must win, but. let every
organization and individual insist that
congress pass such acts as will guar:
a11tee to the people that: this is a war
for democracy and not for plutocracy.

Church And Labor
Must Cooperate
Nv Rev. Charles Sickle.

BY Rev. Charles Stelzle'
One of the recent developments In
the labor movement Isl the growing
feeling of friendliness among labor
men toward the church. This is par
ticularly true of the prominent leaders.
For many years, at conferences COM
posed of churchmen, one Of the lead.
ing topics of discussion was the OBJ
vious alienation of the workingman
from. the church. Today there is no
class of men among whom the move
ment toward the church is more con-
spicuous.
This does not mean, of course, that
the church has become all that is to
be desired; but it does indicate, first,
that the church today as a greater
interest in the problems which con-
front workingmen than it has ever
had, and, second, workingmen have
come to realize that the church is far
more interested in their affairs than
they had supposed. They have also
come to believe that there are some
very important matters concerning
which the church and labor are at
agreement and that it is quite possible
to construct a. platform which would
be large enough for both to stand
upon.
Organized labor has come to very
crucial period in its history. It is
face to face with some Of the most
.perplexing problems that have ever
confronted the labor movement. Need
less to say, no movement can long de-
pend upon it's past glory. The momen-
tum Of it's former deeds will not carry
it very far along. t must constantly
create new policies, cutting off that
which has outlived its usefulness and
taking on newer and larger concep-
tions of its mission and purpose.
While it is still imperative that Or
gained labor fight for the necessities
of life, the time has undoubtedly come
when it must take cognizance Of the
larger moral and ethical issues in
Volved. In other words, the contention
of labor must be upon a higher plane
than has heretofore been the case.z
Without minimizing it's efforts so far
as the physical Well-being of the work.
ers is concerned, it must make a
greater effort to. raise their moral and
ethical standards. And this, too, re-
CARELESS of what may be the attitude
of those who are opposing the work.
ingmeR in their endeaVors to advance
the conditions Of the toi1ers.
In this new task the church may be
of real service to organized labor. It
is well, therefore, that church and
labor are coming closer together, be-
cause when once the time comes that
organized labor and the organized
church can agree upon a program,
there will be no opposing force which
will be strong enough TO resist their
combined efforts. . III =: .. Z
