THE AMERICAN
NORWEGIAN
lBy the Rev. Charles StelzIel


He may live in a tenement, but he
is the backbone of this republic. He
is the most highly skilled artisan in
the world. 1t is because of this
that we are the most prosperous ma
tion on the face of the globe. Amer
lea learned the lesson earlier than
any other nation, that no people can
advance unless they take with them
the COMMON, everyday man. Further
more, America learned the lesson
sooner than any other nation, that
the prosperity of the whole people
depends upon the prosperity of the
workingman. He has not received
all to which he is entitled Any
man would be fool to say that the
present social system is ideal in
any land But the labor movement
is rapidly bringing in the day when
the workingman shall come to his
own.
The American workingman is an
independent, free-acting citizen. Any
man, be he labor-leader or politician,
who says that he carries in his vest
pocket the vote of the American
workingman, is a liar. If he really
believes it, he is a fool. When the
American workingman does follow a

made good, or because the principles
which he is advocating, appeal to
the workingman's good sense. The
American workingman claims the
right to protest against any condi-
ton which he believes is against
the interest of the people. He
fought long for religious democracy.
He fought hard for political democ-
racy. He is going to win the fight
for industrial democracy.
The American workingman has so
long breathed the air of democracy,
that he hates patronage or paternal-
ism. While he appreciates a clean
shop and pure air, he despises the
splutter some folks are making about
social welfare work. All he asks
square deal, then he will
need most of these benevolent en-
terprises.
The American workingman is not
a lawless revolutionist. Anarchy Of
the mountaineering type does not
appeal to him. He is demandin'
that the women folks shall receive
equal pay for equal work He is
the champion of little Children in
his fight against child labor. The
American workingman is helping to
Americanize the immigrant No other
institution is doing more in this
respect than American labor unions
He is breaking down antagonists
that separate men of different re-
ligious creeds. He is obliterating
the color lines. He is fighting for
universal brotherhood.

wealth can be produced? Wealth
showers not down from heaven nor
springs up from the earth miracul-
ously; it is the result of labor applied
to the land and so far as you with
hold land from use you are limiting
wealth, and by the limitation of
wealth, creating poverty for the
workers. | do not care whether
they work in Leeds or Caithness, in
the interest of labor the first thing
is to insure that every idle acre shall
be put to its best use; every idle acre
in this United Kinkdom shall have
labor applied to it if labor desires to
apply itself.
"That is the fundamental thing we
are here to demand If we are to
build a new state, better state, out
of this commingling Of universal
blood and tears, it can only be upon
a foundation of liberty. Surely we
have learned the value of liberty in
these days of war! l know / have
seen, our liberties being legislated
away in bills which are scarcely dis
cussed, as if liberty were of no vaue.
If the people today have not learned
the value of property, they will learn
it in the days to come when these
restrictions upon liberty are not going
to be removed with the coming cessa-
ton of hostilities.
"The only beneficial state which
can justify the sacrifices and horrors
of today will be one in which true
liberty prevails. Surely justice de-
mands that first of all, all men shall
have an equal right to life, and there
fore it follows that all men have an
equal right to the use and enjoyment
Of what Providence intended for the
maintenance of life For the land
to be monopolized by the law is to
deny the right of life to the many
and in the coming days, which will
be days, hope, of the overthrow of
the sham democracies Of the world
in those days that are coming can
see the falling of dynasties and the
sham democracies based upon injus-
tice and the denial of equity. If in
those days that are coming we are tc
build brighter and better state, ]
say that the first thing we have to
pay attention to is the destruction
of that supreme wrong from which
l believe all the evils of society have
/ sprung"

LABOR is SHORT
ON WRONG END

The Spokane Labor World Of the
10th has been investigating and
this is what resulted from the probe;
We visited the shops of one of the
railroad companies one day this week
to satisfy ourselves that women were
taking the places of men in the
round houses. AS the old saying is:
eve are satisfied but not content"
Women were wiping engines that had
just come in from the road. Dressed
in overalls with a bunch of waste
in their hands they were busily en-
gagged at their tasks. Crime and
grease We're laying thick upon their
faces and hands, and despite the
caps worn had gotten into their hair.
'And all this in the name of patriot
ism. The railroads like other big
corporations are setting up the howl
that there is a shortage Of labor and
that they are forced to employ wo
men. This is a deliberate and mali
cious falsehood as everyone knows,
and is used but for one purpose: the
procuring of cheap labor. There is
no use in taking the stopping of this
practice up with the administrative
authorities for there is no violation
of the law. The organized labor
movement is the only force that can
put an end to it. Let US organize
the women of the nation, and then
if there is any need of them going
into the industrial field we can de-
mand for them equal pay for equal
tasks performed by men. Our wo-
men were created for better and
nobler purpose than wiping engines
or toiling YEARLY in any industry
and we should set about at once to
organize them, and through this
organization protect them from the
wiles Of patriots" and other labor
exploiters.

AFTER THE WAR ENDS
WHAT WILL WE DO?

at is an i'll wind that blows no
body good"
The war has served to show all the
people but a privileged few who is
the under dog in the economic strug-
gle which has been going on for
centuries. 1t is teaching lessons
to mankind that nothing but such
monster cataclysm could teach. 1t
is showing the people the enormously
wide gulf between the producers Of
wealth and the possessors of wealth.
1t is showing the people the fallacy
of long accepted theories Of political
economy. It is proving to the
masses that while they imagine them
selves free they are in reality slaves,
made so by their own acquiescence in
unjust, unreasonable, indefensible
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 chill
dren, nor their children's 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
me go war"
What do we find?
That the representatives of the
people 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 damned head off to
pay the interest on debt he had
nothing to do with making.
Yet this is what he viii have
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 it be waged as such, and in the
name Of all that is just and good,
and humane, 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.
AS a pointer to the line Of thought
now running in the minds Of the
British producing classes, and what
we ought to be thinking Of ourselves,
read the speech of Hon. R. L. Outh-
waite, member of parliament I'M
der the heading, A Great Economic
Battle viii Follow After the End
of War" on the first page of this
issue.
The United States is in this war
to the finish and must win, but let
every organization and individual in
sist that Congress pass such acts as
will guarantee to the people that this
is war for democracy and not for
plutocracy.
Of what good is it to mankind to
destroy autocracy and establish plu-
tocracy in it's stead?

PRICE PAID FOR
NEWS PRINT PAPER
BY UNCLE SAM

Several months ago when there
was talk of prosecuting the paper
manufacturers for violation Of the
Sherman Antitrust law, the paper
makers rushed down to New York
and asked the Trade Commission to
set the price on white print news.
The commission did investigate and
unofficially set the price at $3.50 per
100 pounds, which was by that body
considered very fair price. But
that was as far as it went until
Uncle Sam stepped and did this:
Summary action has been taken by
the United States government to Sc
cure for its use news print paper at
q price considerably lower than that
which it was offered through So
called competitive bids and at pri-
vate offering. In brief, the gov
eminent officials believed that they
were being held up, and therefore
caused the paper to be furnished at
the price-S250 per hundred-which
the Federal Trade Commission de-
cided was reasonable.
"The government has invoked the
national defense act to bring the pa
per company to terms, and this being
the first time the act has been in
voked along this line, it is believed
that the precedent set is very i'm
portant one"-Typographical Jour
nal.
Now, if Uncle Sam can do such a
thing for himself he can do the
same thing for all his nephews and
nieces. 1t will certainly strengthen
the national defense if everybody
contributing the sinews of war is
able to secure the things he wants to
eat and wear-in fact everything he
wants at a reasonable price.

THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

10. | bring tidings of good JOY
for unto thee a Christ is born.'
These words, coming down through
the centuries, were the words that
announced the Man who brought the
message of peace, good will unto
ALL" But what a different atmos-
phere we find this 1917th anniversary
of the birth of Jesus Christ. Peace
is replaced by war of the greatest
magnitude that has ever been known
as the advocates of democracy and
the rights of small nations struggle
against the advocates of militarism
and autocracy.
And as the Christmas season draws
nigh, there is obligation upon those
who bear the banner of the Christ to
UNFOLD the doctrine of love for fell
bowman and neighbor. Love thy
neighbor as thyself'' is truly COM
mandment calling for sacrifice OF
personal feelings and egotism. but
he who would call himself Chris
tian must prove himself.
That the people of the United
States bear no malice toward the
German people has been emphatically
stated by President Wilson. The
present war is not against the people,
but against the system of government
that has bound them fast with chains
of autocracy and militarism. 1t is
the duty of the Christian citizens OF
this country to maintain at all times
the spirit of good will that will make
this war not a war of hate, but war
of right against might.
So, as we spread good cheer among
our relatives and friends, let US re-
member that among us are those who
bear the stigma of alien enemies, not
through their actions, but through
the fact that they are German-born.
With the true Christ spirit let us
prove that this Nation does not bear
malice towards those who bear the
name of German. For the day will
ultimately come when men will beat
their shields into plowshares and
their swords into pruning hooks"

THE Lady of Kingdoms" gra-
cious novel by Inez Haynes Irwin,
deals with the lives of two women
who were threatened with hopeless
spinsterhood in the narrow confines
of typical small American village.
They revolted in time and ventured
into a wider life. The one naturally
endowed with sex attraction remains
Indifferent to the natural desire for
marriage and maternity; the other,
denied the attracting graces of fem
ininity, yearns for her own child.
Even a decade ago such a novel
would have been reckoned too revo-
lutionary for acceptance. Mrs. Ir-
win successfully works out the cor
related problems involved in her plot
and makes a long and somewhat in
vOlved but compelling story.

LECTURES IN KANSAS CITY
Miss Louise Stanley Recommends Use
OF Fish for Meat

Many palatable and nourish1ng
fish dishes were demonstrated at the
Polytechnic Institute cooking school
in Kansas City Saturday afternoon by
Miss Louise Stanley, head Of the home
economics department of the Uni
versity of Missouri, according to the
Kansas City Star.
"Fish is the same as meat in pro-
tein value" Miss Stanley said. st is
deficient in fat, the energy producing
element of meat Fat may be used in
cooking fish, however, and the favor
will be improved"
Fish at fifteen and twenty cents a
pound is much cheaper than meat.
Miss Stanley said delicious planked
fish may be made thus:
Remove the backbone and ribs from
a whitefish or shad Place under the
flame in a broiler Cook twenty-five
minutes. Spread on butter and gar
nish with lemon and parsley.
A haddock or buffalo is best for
baking.
This, said Miss Stanley, is the best
recipe for chowder:
Use any leftover fish. Cook up
bones and waste with two cups of
water, one-third cup of salt pork and
two slices of onion chopped Use
equal portions of fish and water Add
two cups of diced potatoes. Cook un-
til potatoes are tender. Add two cups
of flake fish, two cups of milk and
two tablespoonfuls of -four Let come
to boil.
Miss Stanley advised the use of
