What of the supply Of labor in
the year that is before us? 1t is
perfectly apparent that the great
business of the country must be
kept going if this country is to
finance the allied countries, as
she has undertaken. With more
than a million Of her best work
men drawn to the colors, a re-
dedication to labor is Imperative
on the part Of that class that
from one cause and another has
heretofore dropped out Of the
ranks Of the workers.
It is all right to say to the
farmer, "You must produce
greater crops" but if he hasn t
the force to manage his teams
and implements we are asking OF
him an impossibility. And so In
all other lines.
There is but one answer: All
who can, must WORK, not be-
cause they need the proceeds Of
their labor, but because the coun-
try NEEDS THEIR LABOR.
There is absolutely no room in
this country now for the men
who can work, yet who will not.
Down with the work Stacker!

THK LABOR PROBLEM.

At II o'clock on the night Of
September 8, the manufacture of
Intoxicating beverages was end
ed IN the United States. Distil-
leries all over the land drew their
fires and closed their doors.
Thousands Of men were put out
Of employment, and millions Of
dollars worth Of equipment must
be diverted to other uses. And
in connection with it all there is
one significant fact that must
strike us forcefully when we
come to consider it.
just one instance: Peoria, ILL.,,
a large whisky center, announces
that the l 1,5OO or 1000 men thrown
out by the closing Of the distil-
lcries will be taken care Of at once
III other lines of work-that she
has need for the services Of every
one Of them. Similar word comes
from many other whisky produc-
ing centers.
When great industry such as
this can cease all at once without
any appreciable disturbance of
labor conditions, the fact should
set us to thinking, and thinking
deeply.

one OF the best fields but the very
best field for the investment of capital
in an industrial venture. not merely
because of the war and for the dura-
ton of the war but for many years
after the war. and because OF many
well-known reasons that have been
i'm existence many years; that the
chief OF these reasons was that our
mercantile marine had been allowed
to die: that we were dependent on the
sea, if not 10 the same extent as
Great Britain. at least TO a sufficient
extent to justify and to demand a
great expansion in shipping, II we do
not want to continue to be dependent
on other nations for our ocean freight

their aid were withdrawn: that the
war perhaps had brought this fact &c
our attention and would force US 70
