As a matter of fact, when working
man strikes it is not merely to obtain
an increase In his wage; that Is what
the papers tell us the trouble is all
about and that Is what he asks for; but
way down underneath what he Is really
striking for is a larger percentage of
the profits Of the business.
He may not realize this, but, sub
consciously, this is precisely what he
Is doing.
No mere Increase in wages can ever
satisfactorily solve this problem. 1t
can be solved C..ly on the basis of
profit sharing.
BY profit sharing | do not mean
bonus giving, mean actual profit
sharing plans based on the earnings
Of the business, with fair percentage
to capital and fair percentage to
labor after ordinary wages and inter-
est have been earned
Profit sharing can be done salts
factorily only when the business con-
Germ makes public its transactions, so
that the laborer and the stakeholder
can know as much about the business
as does the manager himself.
In the adjustment Of difficulties be-
tween capital and labor | am conf.
dent that open books will accomplish
much more than open shops.
These changes are far-reaching and
fundamental What are we going to
do about 1t? What is to be our men
tai attitude? How are We going to
handle these problems?
Can we approach them from the
same point of view as did our fathers,
who lived in a strictly indlvldualistic
age? Can we approach them from the
knowledge we have gained from law
books which were written in the In
dividualistlc age? IL we do we will
be combating the mighty onward
rush Of new thought and new condi-
tons. provided in large measure by
the scientist the educator, the inyen-
tor. z
What The FIXTURE Holds Forth.
What Is the outl0okf Is ii sad,
pessimistic future that unfolds? Does
life hardly seem worth living under
the new conditions or does II hold out
an optimistic future, with finer op-
portunities and more worth while
goalsl
Let me see II I can picture IL as l
see II. First, just glance into the
past
About the only goal we have had
has been the almighty dollar. The
first question asked when a man dies
Is, How much was he WORTH" with
scarcely a thought as to how much
he did for bis community or his coun-
try.
But what has it al amounted toi

One of the greatest stumbling blocks
so progress is the human inclination TO
follow precedent and old methods too
closely. We find it difficult to strike
out along entirely new lines.
Thomas jefferson, in his old age,
wrote letter in which he said:--
Some men ascribe to the men of the
preceding age a wisdom more than
human and suppose what they did to
be beyond amendment, | knew that
age [of the Reyolutionl well. | be-
longed to it and labored with it. 1t
deserved well Of its country. 1t was
very like the present, but without the
experience of the present; and forty
years of experience is worth cen
fury of book reading; and this they
would say themselves were they to
arise from the dead.
Great Changes Taking Place Rapidly.
The changes that occurred from the
close of the Revolutionary War to JEFF

Emperor Charles Hears the News.

That the young Austro-H Hungarian en-
peror i much excited over the news from
Russia we may well believe. Reports that
he i seeking an armistice with the new
Russian government may be a bit prema
ture. hut il would be a mistake 10 over
look the tremendous moral effect of the
Russian revolution upon the Slavs fight
ing for the dual monarchy. The half
hearted way in which the Slavs Of Aus
tria- Hungary have made war against the
Russians has been a source Of weakness

PAROwAN STAKE CONFERENCE
Continued from first page.)

Mountains Shout For Joy.
Apostle Richards sanctioned and
endorsed the Red Cross Movement. If
we are called upon to stand for Lib
erty against autOcracy, we will none
of rs refuse Believed that the Lat
ter Day Saints prize the blessing of
liberty more highly than any other
people.
The Home.
1t lies at the very bottom of our
religious and social life. 1t is the
corner stone of the nation. The speak
err could not conceive of a good people
with a poor home or a bad people
with a good home. The English law
gives the home the highest place in
the nation. Quoted Edmund Burke
in saying that no matter how poor
his home might be, the king could not
enter it without permission. No other
sect or creed has the lofty conception
of marriage that the Latter Day
Saints do. No other people have had
the revelations regarding marriage
that we have. Such marriages make
the home sacred. In these days, pub
lie resorts are taking the place of
the home for amusements. The homes
are becoming mere boarding places.
The old home parties have been rele-
gated to the rear.
The young peopleo f today are not
trained to make homes. They think
more of education than home making
qualities. The young girls must get
Accomplishments" The boys must
have a chance to "sow their wild
oats After each has accomplished
his or her object, they meet in so.
ciety and the match is made. 1t is
no wonder that so many of the
matches result in their getting to the
end of their troubles, but which end?
Mothers slave to give their daugh-
tiers the advantages of education,
which life is unfortunate for the
mother but. doubly unfortunate fol
the girls. Parents cannot raise chill.
dren by proxy, you cannot make a
home but by giving it the best there
is in you. Every mother cannot be &
mother Of a Washington or Lincoln
but she can teach her SOM to be such
men as will support a Washington OF
a Lincoln.
In the matter of dress, our girls
should appear to be what they are
pure, sweet and clean. BY following
too much after the fashions of socie.
ty, they give a wrong impression OF
themselves. Styles change but the
principles of modesty never change,
President Day in closing said that
this conference had been held in
Cedar City on account of the Parowar
Tabernacle not being completed in
time. The conference adjourned to
meet in three months time at Paro,
