WHERE THE GOOD THINGS GO TO
By SCOTT NEARING.

Mr.. Dooley closes his well-known
essay on country life with the obser-
walton that the place to live is not
where the good things come from but
where the good things go to. What an
admirable thing it would be if the
American people would take a leaf
from the book of Mr.. Dooley's expe-
rience in the present crisis.
The cost of living is soaring sky
ward. So high have the prices of some
commodities gone that they have been
temporarily eliminated from the bud
get of the ordinary family.
New York and Philadelphia report
food riots. On all sides there is ex-
pressed discomfort and an almost
childish curiosity with regard to the
future of prices. When will things
be cheaper?" people ask one another.
What are we to do?" they question.
How can we go on living with prices
as they are this winter ?"
Thus do they talk and argue while
the congested railroads are rushing
millions of tons of cotton, corn, coal,
steel, copper and wool to the seabord
where they will augment the rapidly
growing export trade of the United
States.
The financial and commercial inter
ests of the country are glorying in our
increase of exports. One of the great
financial institutions of New York in
recent publication describes the in
creases in our South American trade
during the past three years. In 1914.
the year that the war started, our eN-
ports to South America were 91,000,-
900, in 1915, 144,000,000, in 1916,
220.000,000. The statistician who pre-
pared these figures goes on to show
that cotton coal machinery and otbar
manufactured products have been the
chief gamers in this increase of ex-
ports.
A leading financial paper of New
York gleefully exclaims that ''the ma
tons export trade continues to sur
pass all previous records. January
exports exceeded by nearly 100000
in value the best previous month in the
country's history" During that month

PROTEST PORTION OF DECISION.
Gompers and Morrison Enter Plea in
High Court Dictum-

President Gompers and Secretary
Morrison, of the A. F. of l., presented
to Attorney General Gregory a protest
in the name of the workers of this
country against the supreme court go
ing out of its way in matters not be-
fore the court and in dragging in COM
pulsory arbitration when deciding the
legality of the Adamson eight-hour
law for railroad employees.
The supreme court, it was stated,
by injecting into the law and argu-
ment foreign right to quit work,
pointed the way to those who wish to
tie workers to their work in order to
protect the supposed convenience of
the public.
President Gompers called attention
to the progressive fundamental dec
larations in both Mexico and Russia,
countries which are passing thru a
period of danger and national stress,
assuring to the workers of those coun-
tries the right to strike.
1t was declared that this portion of
the courts opinion belongs to the old
reactionary despotism of Russia and
Mexico. and is out of harmony with the
free institutions of the United States.

RUSSIANS NOT TO
"SWAP" TYRANTS
GOVERNMENT BY BANK
ERS" NOT ALLOWED.
Likewise Bankers and Trust Monopo-
lies Must Not Be Permitted to Run
Our Government During the
Impending War Crisis.
By DANTE BARTON.

NEW YORK, April 10.-Have you
noticed that the Russian revolution
lists who have taken over the Russian
empire for the Russian people have
denounced government by bankers"
in the same breath in which they de-
nounced government by czar and
bureaucrats
This is of tremendous Importance.
The Russian people are not willingly
going to substitute one privileged class
for another. 1t was the Russian, Toll
stoy, who said "the rich will do any
thing for the poor except get off their
backs"
But the people of Russia do not want
anybody on their backs. They know
that a privileged class of wealth will
ride the workers and the common peo-
ple-if the people will let them-as
hard as grand dukes ride them.
So they are going to make a clean
sweep of this business of getting rid
of rulers. Just as the French in their
great revolution of 1889 to 1894 re-
fused to be content with paper pledges
of reform, refused to accept simply
the name of a republic, but insisted on
the real thing which must always in
clude economic freedom as well as
political freedom.
When, in this present national crisis
of America, you may hear that ''the
bankers" and the trusts and monopo-
lists propose to run the government"
and to "advise how the war shall be
financed" remember what the Russian
democrats have said about government
by bankers.
Nobody is safe TO sit in 'the seats
of the mighty" in America, any more
than in Russia, who does not believe
that the taxes should be taken off Ia
Dor and the natural resources of the
people be free to the people, who does
not believe that the cost of war must
be borne by the wealth, produced by
all but largely monopolized by the
few No one can safely be an author
itative adviser or counselor for the
nation who will not oppose to the last
extremity of war profits; who is not
willing to tax incomes and inheritances
to an extent which restores all ex-
cessive wealth to the common welfare;
who does not believe that the people
should be free, and not censored, in
their expressions of opinion, and who
does not believe that labor has at
least as good a right in war time as
in peace time to labor union stand
ards of wages and work and organi-
zation.

DAILY LABOR PAPERS.
CThe Toiler, Dallas, Texas.)

There is movement on foot in Colo
RADIO TO make that excellent publica-
ton. The Denver Labor Bulletin, now
a weekly, a daily paper. In letter
received by the able editor, Mr.. Clint
c. Houston, and written by R. S.
Pepper. vice chairman of the legis-
lative board of the Railroad Trainmen
of the state of Colorado, the latter
says among other things: What we
want and must have for success of
the labor movement in Colorado is a
truthful, fearless daily paper. 1 am
ready to assist in making The Bulle-
tin a daily-a daily covering the la
Dor and general news field"
What Mr.. Pepper says is eminently
correct. There should be daily pa
pers in every large city devoted TO the
sole interest of organized labor. Un-
less it is an extremely important item,
you will find in so many daily papers
the department devoted to labor with
single line head and placed in some
obscure column. The daily labor pa
per, on the other hand, if it is conduct
ed in the proper manner, would give
all labor news prominence, thru suit
able articles, large and attractive
at once catch the eye of the reader.
To make the daily labor paper a
success it is necessary, as in the case
of the secular press, to have goodly
space devoted to advertisements. In
this latter respect, the merchant wish
ing to let the community know what
he has to sell, and especially the bar
gain days. could not select better
medium than union daily. For in
stance, here in Dallas, with eight thou
sand union men and women, there
would be at least thirty thousand read
ers of such publication every day.
We presume the idea is to make The
Bulletin daily, should it be established,
an evening journal. This would give
better opportunity to secure the
news of the meetings, as nearly all of
them are held at night, and many last
until late hour.
A weekly edition in connection could
easily be maintained, thereby giving
both daily and weekly readers a pub
Gcation.
That daily labor paper would
prove valuable factor for the adver-
tiser there is no reason to question.
Laboring people spend virtually all
their earnings among their home mer-
chants and the latter would naturally
let what they had to sell be known to
the public thru a medium that repre-
sents such vast home buying con-
stituency.

GREETING RUSSIAN WORK ERS.
American Labor Movement Congrat-

When news reached this country
that the Russian empire had been
democratized, President Gompers, on
behalf of American labor, sent the
following cablegram to n. S. Chek-
heiji, Petrograd, leader of the labor
group in the Russian duma:
I'VE rejoice with Russia's workers
in their newly achieved liberty. The
splendid proclamation of your provis-
ional government, declaring for free
speech and press, and the right of
workers to organize, and if necessary,
to strike for their rights, guarantees
to Russia's workmen opportunity for
freedom and progress and assures the
new Russia her future greater glory.
International labor welcomes the tri-
umph of freedom and the downfall of
despotism thruout the world"

TOLEDO, Ohio, April 1s.-Profes-

Der of the faculty of Toledo university.
This results from the meeting of the
board of trustees held Tuesday even
ing at the university building.
The session was a heated one and
some hard words passed. The vote to
file the letter of resignation was five
to four. Labor's representatives voted
to retain Nearing.
Trustee Miller later sought to have
Nearing appear in a week to state his
views on patriotism. His resolution
was lost, five TO four.
Those voting for acceptance of the
resignation were Albert Miller, J. Gaz-

Henry Streetman. Those in favor of
rejection of the resignation were Will

commodities valued at s613, 900 900
were exported from the United States.
During the year 1915 the total exports
were three and one-haf billions Dur
ing the year 1916, the total exports
were five and one-half billions. II the
comparative figures for January are
any indication for 1917 the total ex-
ports for the year should exceed seven
billions.
The vast quantities of wealth max
ing up our export trade is derived from
our resources and brought into being
by the labor and machinery which is
occupied in the productive process.
America is producing billions of wealth
and shipping it abroad-with what re-
suit? A few of the American people
benefit thru increased profits, salaries
and wages. The vast majority are i'm
poyerished by the tremendous increase
in the cost of living. At the present
time America is the place where the
good things come from.
A few days ago an ardent advocate
of the prosperity that comes with
the exporting of life-necessaries that
are needed at home, publicly stated
that if the submarine warfare was sue
cessful in preventing further ship
ments to the allies the American peo-
pie would starve. He was thinking
only of system of economic life that
rewards those who are already sup
piled. To him it seemed that the
American people must starve to death
if they kept their wheat at home in
stead of sending it abroad.
