STATESMEN INCOMPETENT,

The longer the war lasts. the plsiner it becomes that the present order IS shaking it-clf to pieces. Old-style individualistic capitalism was placed OH its death boG in the United States the day that the first manufacturer got an order from the go, Crnment instructing him to de- liver a certain quantity of goods by a ocrtGil date al a given place and notifying him that his remunera- ;ion would be determined later. State capitalism reigns in it's stead and government ownership, opera tion and control is in for a run.
 The whole world now recognizes that mankind is entering upon a period of reorganization and re- construction. But here Tn America 1t is ( que tiUn if we are not losing sight of our rel mission by ;oo great concentration upon oppcsi- tiCn to the war We instinctiNely and from principle oppose war whenever and wherever we find it, but it is wei to reflect that we shall never get very far OE pure ly negative program.

In this way the threatened labor short age with it's inevitable wage in crease may be forestalled.

 when some day we shall find the old order here in America dead of it's own in-cfficiency, we shall not have solved our problems merely by electing a Socialist majority to Corgre or by installing a Socialist president and Socialist legislature in all the states.
 1t is vital that we recognize this fact: that the welfare of modern society rests no longer upon the efficiency of political governments, but upon the proper administration of industry.
 At the pres ert time our rulers are thinking faster than we are, or father, they are showing more alertness in recognizing facts.
 Witnes. the present situation of Congress. The prevailing attitude toward 1t is one of cyniclsm and disgust. Daily the newspapers pill ory it for it's confusion and delay in face of the national crisis, for it's alleged narrowness and lack or grasp. It is not true, however that Congress i.1 composed of bone heads or crooks. even tho it's per soHnel consists mostly of politicians with localized visions.
 The fact is that Congress has simply been outgrown. It's mem bers came to Washington to deal with matters of law and politics. Instead, they find themselves con- fronted with problems of industry. Thee problems have become the more urgent now thGt the coun- try has discovered that waging modern war requires not only the organization of industry. Ana Congress simply has not the know ledge, the training, the structure, adequately to deal with such mat ters.
 The result is that Congress has become little more important than rubber stamp The real govern | mcnt is wasted in small groups of | men like the Interstate Commerce ! Commission. etc, etc, some ol these bodies are invested with pow CT wcll-nigh dictatorial and It IS they who a1c administering and le- gulating the affair, of the country today.

The financial and business papers in 2ll rartS of tl2 country are alarmed over q Ee" mcnacc-the more serious one that has confront ed tie Amc-:can business world since the outbreak of the war. Bus mess men everywhere are pro- foundly corcernod over the pros pect of a big increase in wages.
 The ordinary source of labor supply lave failed Immigration has practically ceased. The birth rate is bc.n> cut in all of the bel Iigercrt countries. Meanwhile there is a far greater demand fer labor. a demand that will become particularly acute as time goes on. Unemploym which in nor ma" year might have gore to l5 or even 20 per cent did rot get much above or s per cent last winter. At the pTC.e2t time it is probably well below per cent. The general labor shortage with it's in tensest pressure during the harvest season cannot but result in an in creaseU in wages such as men have not known in modern times. If the law of supply and demand is permitted 10 operate in this case as # has operated during the past few months in the case of pOtatoe pork. shoes and steel wages might double in a month.

once Raised. Reduced With
 Difficulty.

Once wages are raised they are reduced with difficulty, Workers become accu toned to a high re turn and resent any cut in the wage scale. Hence the seriousness of a situation that promises wide spread wage advances.
 During the past 40 years the bulk oi American wage earners have worked for wage that repre- 3entcd bare subsistence or less. Therefore millions of them lived in poverty. The present situation pro mises a living wage and more for even the humblest worker.

HISTORIC BRIDGE.

In crossing the Jefferson street
bridge last week, just before a
shower, the wind blowing a gale, we
met a lady in distress. She was
wearing one of these flimsy short
skirts and the wind coming through
the bridge was determined to wind
said skirt about her neck, which it
did several times in spite of all her
efforts. With her parasol in her
teeth and her hat under her arm, she
stopped over, holding her skirt at the
bottom, and came alons walking like
a fettered hen. What could an old
married man do? If We threw our
head back to gaze at the sky our own
hat would have gone sailing down the
river, and if we looked down she
would make faces at us, so we
stopped, stood on our hat, threw both
hands over a face that burned as fire
and peeped through our fingers. We
never before saw such a dancing of
lingerie, and she hobbled along dou-
bled up pulling at the bottom of that
skirt until she tore it Off at the waist,
and then tying it around her, scud
for the "other shore under bare
poles" peace and harmony prevailing.
They should anchor their dresses with
a ten-pound cannon ball in Nashville
before attempting to cross the bridge
in a gale
