Good Faith Of Former Pre-

by Paper.

Rome, Dec. 23.-Further attacks
made on Giovanni Giolitti. formerly
premier and minister of the inter-
Tor. by the Giornale d'Italia, which
in an editorial declares that 1t re-
fuses to believe in the good faith
of the statement made by Signor
Giolitti that he is now unwilling to
see Italy make . separate peace.
The attitude OF the ons-tims prem.
Ter. who was opposed to Italy aban-
doning her neutrality, has been re-
garded in political circles as q mat
ter of great moment.
The Newspaper expresses the
opinion that Signor Giolittis object
is to strengthen himself SO that he
may obtain a place in power and
then work for a peace that the al
lies might accept. and that he In
private conversations has mention
ed this intention.
Propaganda also u being carried
on by Signor Giolittfs followers,
the Giorale d'Italia says, but adds
that he probably will await q more
promising situation next year in
order to carry out his scheme. In
this connection. the Newspaper
quotes him as saying. THE apple
now Is unripe."

In the Congress Just convened there
are many lawyers. don't know how

have got the impression that nobody
but lawyers can make laws. Anyhow.
we fill up our State legislatures and
Congress with lawyers and get too
many laws. That's the old govern
ment.
In the new government, the new
State, can't see much room for
lawyers. That's because the new
laws will be mostly laws Of trade.

the various new States, or callings,

When President Wilson and the
Council of National Defense started
to organize the new government, they
didn't pick a lawyer to represent this
or that interest. They picked a rail-
road expert to represent railroads, a
food expert, who happened to be a
mining engineer. to represent food,
a college president to represent coal.
a successful business executive to
represent shipping, a steel expert to
represent steel, a stock broker and
metal expert to represent metals and

represent labor.

How many of. them would go
through the dirt of a political cam
paign for the privilege of serving
the people in Congress?
You see. they don't think of them
selves as Republicans, Democrats,
Prohibitionists, Socialists or anything
else politically. They don't look up
their party platform to find out what
they believe and what they can stand
for In government. They come as
representative men. ready and will
ing to throw into the common melt
ing pot all of the knowledge, and ex-
perience they have gained during an
active and successful life.
The organization of farmers in the
Northwest is another step toward or
ganization of the new State. They
found they didn't get the representa-
ton they wanted in the old two
party political government. To get
representation as farmers. they quit
fighting one another as Democrats
and Republicans, and got together
as farmers. They are feeling their
way and will, make some mistakes,
but they are headed in the right di-
rection.
Only a few days ago they stretched
forth the hand of fellowship to or
ganized labor at the Buffalo conven-
ton. They wanted to cooperate.
These experiments in cooperation
are going on all over the country.
The war is helping. Governor Lowden,
OF Illinois. gave cooperation a boost
when he appointed the Illinois Council
or Defense. Two of his appointees
were Ogden Armour. head Of the Beef
Trust, and Sam insult. head of the
public utility combine in Chicago. In
stead Of appointing fake leaders OF
labor to represent labor. Governor
Lowden appointed two of the strong
est, ablest and most forcible labor
leaders in the state-John Walker,
president. and Victor Oblander, sec
rotary of the Illinois Federation of
Labor. These four men have worked
together to good purpose and effect.
Working together for a common pur-
pose. q patriotic purpose. these four
leaders in industry, who never had
found much in common before, quick
ly learned to cooperate.
The Chicago packers have been a
stumbling block in the way Of organ
lied labor in Chicago. but I venture
the assertion that Ogden Armour has
learned. through contact with John
Walker and Victor Oblander. there is
more good in organized labor than he
thought there was, and that out Of
this cooperation will come organiza-
ton of labor in the stockyards
II all labor in ChicaEo were or
ganized. and all employers as well.
there would be few appeals to the
old law and the old government. Most
differences would be adjusted by CO.
operation and self-goverument.
II all labor and all industry in this
country were organized. there would
be few calls on the courts. the militia
and the police.

BY \. ID. COCHRAN.

When the Council for National De-
Tense started out to help President
Wilson organize the nation to prose-
cute the war. none of its members
knew all that he knows now.
All have learned much by corpora
ton, and by working together for a
common public purpose.
OF greatest Significance, perhaps, Is
what captains OF industry nave learn
ed about labor-particularly organic
ed labor. That they have learned
much is evident by the way the
council is now going about the mobil-
ization of labor for efficiency.
E You hear no talk now of coercing
or conscripting labor. Nor is there
any talk Of asking labor to give up
any Of the concessions 1t has won by
hard fighting. The hearty co-opera-
ton of organized labor under the wise
and statesmanlike leadership of Sam
ueE Gompers, with President Wilson
in his war policies. has thrown light
in dark places. There is a new under
standing of organized labor.
New Basis for Labor.
With that understanding comes new
treatment. There is no longer any
disposition to crush unionism as a
menace to successful industrial
growth. On the contrary a feeling is
growing that there would be no labor
problem II ALL labor were organized.
And I understand that hereafter la
Dor is to be dealt with on a par with
manufacturing, mining, railroads and
other industrial states.
Labor will be dealt with through
its responsible organization heads,
just as any other industry or or
is. That is, labor will be
as properly, rightfully and
organized.
That makes the new State posi-
BILE. Steel, transportation, food, fuel,
mining, manufacturing and
the other new states couldn't organize
and insist that labor remain morgan
lied. That would be trying to keep
the biggest and most vital state out
of the new union.
The Sauls of American industry
have seen a light and have become
PauIs.
They see now that nobody can mo-
Billie labor for war efficiency but la
Dor itself. And they see, too, that la
Dor is just as willing to serve and to
make sacrifices, as any other class of
citizens. And labor will make the
necessary sacrifices. not through fear

While the sons of employers and the

Khaki, and are learning to know and
understand one another, their fathers
at home-or down here at Washington
, are learning the same lesson in de-
mocracy.
Just as this war has separated the
American Socialistic sheep from the
goats, and put the Bergers, Hillquits
and Germans on one side, and the
Russels, Spargos and Tallings on the
other. so it has shown the dividing
line between real labor leaders and
the Bolsheviki agitators in labor cir
Giles, and the patriots and profiteers
in the ranks Of employers.
In the new state there will be full
fellowship in democracy for organized
labor.
To have complete organization of
the whole nation there must be COM

Unity Necessary.
We are at war now, and for a just
cause. We must fight as one people.
TO fight as one people we must or
ganize and mobilize all Of our spirit
ual materials and human resources.
We must have one transportation or
ganism, one fuel organism, one food
organism, one labor organism.
The complete organization of labor
Is just as important as the complete
organization of railroads. Both are
war necessities.
There can be no turning back Fuel,
transportation, finance. manufactur-
ing, mining, labor-each must be or
ganized. and all must be organized.
What the result may be after the war
need not worry us now. We must
have the complete organization and
mobilization now, whether the end be
government ownership or private
ownership under strict governmental
control.
