Problem Of Supplies

Ore element of the plans undoubtedly
deals with the question of supplies for
the Entente governments. Officials Of
the Bethlehem Steel Corporation and
other Stel and ordnance companies were
in conference with Secretary Daniels
during the day in this regard. An
agreement for the apportionment of the
facilities of the plants between the
American army and navy departments
and the furnishing of war supplies To
the Entente nations was reached un-
der the previous arrangement for the
purchase of all government steel at a
fixed price far below the regular mar
let rate.
Administration officials are deter
mined to employ every means in their
power not inconsistent with the urgent
requirements of this E vcrnmcnt for
military and naval stores. to keep the
flow o. munitions as well rs of food
stuffs to Europe going at an increased
rate.
Mr. Daniels vas also able to outline
to the President the steps that nave

The Enterprise is being prinr

to the fact that Thanksgiving
comes on our regular publication

to ask the governor to change it

it on the front page, and there is
some interesting reading in con-

brilliant or original, we have left
it to the boiler plate editor to
express our sentiments, but this
does not in any way lessen our
sincerity. Hoping that our read

will try to make amends in the
future.

pass Woodrow some OF the

Sequachee Valley news. (Sequachee [Sequatchie], Tenn.) 1896-1952, 1917-02-01

IT'S folly to pass some of the
melon to Woodrow. He and all
his family have it already, from
the White House to the shade of
Shadow Lawn.
Suppose we quote the follow
ing from a recent issue of the
Country Gentleman" relatiye
to Mr.. Schwab and his methods
of stealing from his employees:
Charles M. Schwab, chair
man of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany, is a not farmer. but there
must be value in the views of a
man who employs 70, 900 men, re-
ceiving Sc, 600, 600 wages a month,
or an average of $1028 a man a
year. He told an audience of
business men:
These large earnings have
been realized because in every
case possible the man obtained a
share of the profits which he help
ed create. And that is one of the
reasons why our men have been
not only prosperous but enthusi-
astic in their work. The labor
problem is far from being solved,
but if the managers of industry
can develop some universal plan
which will make labor not only
well paid but happy in doing the
work itself, one of the greatest
possible boons to mankind will
have been realized.
1T is felt that the place where
this great problem may be solved
is America, which has one-twen-
tieth of the population of the
world and one third of the worlds
tangible wealth.
Profit sharing in faru ing has
had many angles and most OF
them have been keenly disap,
pointing. but the country is ur
against the hired hand and there
is a feeling that something defin,
| lite and attractive must be worked
out to bring labor back to the
land. Never in the worlds his.
tory was there such distribution
of bonuses and other sharing Of
profits as took place within the
past two months. 1t represents
a new aspect of the labor situa
ton. Mr.. Schwab and other cap
tains of industry findthat it pays
that it makes the laborers mo-
only prosperous but enthusiastic
land after all it is enthusiastic
work that counts most.
