THERE'S A REASON

If any additional argument were
necessary as to why trade unionists
should continue their agitation for
union labeled goods outside of the
many well-known reasons already at
hand, it can readily be found in the
hostility Of the Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION to this little emblem of
free labor and the freedom of in
dustrial contract between employer
and worker. The recent convention
of that association in New York City
adopted a resolution denouncing the
evils of the union label agitation as
an attack on every one with whom it
came in contact, and urging their
members and the general public to
discourage and prevent organized la
Dor from victimizing the women of
America. At several previous con-
ventions this subject was discussed,
but in a somewhat less passionate
manner, but evidently the union la
bel propaganda is getting more and
better results for those who bene-
fit from it very largely, hence this
latest display of temper on the
part of those who love US at all
times except when we ask for i'm

UNCLE SAM DODGES
PROFITEER'S TRAP

NEW YORK, June 3O.-A poll by
the New York World indicates that
the Lever food control bill, intended
to check speculation in food staples
will have strong opposition in the
United States senate. The news
papers poll shows that 81 senators
favor the measure, 10 oppose and 80
are non-committal. With this force
ready to take advantage of extended
discussion permitted in the senate,
it will be easy, if public opinion is
not developed, to delay action until
the middle of the summer, when the
law will prove ineffective because
spectators will then have cornered
the food market.
WASHINGTON, June 30.-On the
plan to give the president authority
to control the food supply of the
nation, United States Senator Reed
of Missouri made vigorous objection
in the senate last week. H. C.
Hoover, the proposed food admin
istrator, was ridiculed and referred
to as "the man that the president
proposed to substitute for the con-
stitution of the United States.
Senator Sheppard of Texas sug-
gested that at may be necessary to
confer this power in order that the
mother may have something on which
to feed her babies"
Senator Reed indicated his disap-
prevail of much of the high cost of
living agitation by answering his
Texas colleague:
"But has that time Gomez"
Senator Reed also inferred that
food gamblers and spectators do not
now tell housewives what to eat,
as he protested against any "dicta-
tor" who would "enter every home
in this land and tell the housewife
how much bread she may set be-
fore the children"
Senator Smith of Michigan con-
tribuated to the work of defeating
the bill by ridicule. He said:
"Those are the rules of a county
poor farm"
The senator's did not discuss forces
in this country which have raised
living costs and made the food
control bill necessary. 1t is clear
that much senate opposition to the
bill will consist of Fourth Of July
orations about "freemen who have
wasted the heritage of liberty be-
queathed them by heroic sires."

IMMIGRATION TO UNITED STATES
AFTER THE WAR WILL BE LIMITED

NEW YORK, June 30.-Immigra-
ton to the United States after the
war will be limited to the peoples
of Poland, Hungary, Bohemia and
the Balkan States, and may be en-
tirely offset by a large emigration
from this country to Europe, accord
ing to Frederic c. Howe, commission
err of immigration at the port of
New York.
In an article appearing in this
weeks issue of "The Public" Com
missioner Howe says:
"In my opinion all the warning
countries will do everything they
can to keep their able-bodied men at
home. They will need them for re-
construction purposes. Certainly
this will be true of England, Ger
many and France. Any material
emigration from Germany is doubt
full The same is true of France
There has never been much emigra-
ton out of France for the reason
that the French people are home
owning pheasants. In addition, France
has been socialized almost as COM
pletely as Germany. Something of
the same sort has happened in Eng
land. In Russia and Austria Hun
gary necessity has forced similar ac-
tivities upon these countries, and
they too, will be in better position
than ever before so far as national
political organizations is concerned,
to take care of their people. In
addition, millions of men have been
killed or incapacitated, and there is
likely to be a shortage in the labor
market which may materially in
crease wages; and this of itself is
sufficient to keep the workers at
home, for immigration to this coun-
try is always determined by eco
nomic conditions. Men come here
because they get better wages than
they do at home or because of the
general improvement in their social
and economic well-being.
"While all this is true, unless the
governments forbid it, there will al
most certainly be heavy emigra-
ton from Poland, Hungary, Bohemia
and the Balkan States. This part
of Europe has suffered most from
the war. At least 100000 peo-
pie have been driven from their
homes. Millions of these people have
friends and relatives in the United
States, and these millions will look
toward a ware-free country.
And they will be helped to come
to America by friends already here.
