SHORTAGE OF MILLION
 l'NSk ILLED LABORERS

Little Rock, Aug. 20.-It appears from the record that Arkansas is making a much better showing in the U. s. Employment Service registra- tion than some of the other states. D. M. Reynolds, head of the publicity service at Washington, wires:
 "The big labor jam has come and the final tabulations of labor demands show a present shortage of one mil lion unskilled laborers in war indus tries, with a tremendous additional shortage coming as soon as the new army draft expansion increases the need for supplies. The skilled labor situation is equally serious. Georgia was notified yesterday that unless the state could furnish the eight million dollar picric acid plant at Brunswick with five thousand laborers at once, the entire construction force would be laid off and the plant moved out of Georgia. The Midvale steel plant at Coatesville, Pa, has been forced to shut down part of it's plant for lack of labor"

purpose should be to bring about a
closer cooperation between organiza-

national conferences, and to assist
in the interchange of reports of meet

was decided not to form a national

near future.

Former Ambassador Gerard is Civ

Germans deliberately killed prison

when there was no schools or hos

right, but any woman who wants
to try getting along with a hungry
husband is welcome to make the
experiment.
1t is said that the ex-czar passes

UNITED STATES
DOESN'T WISH TO IMPAIR
AUSTRIA-HUNGARY

The military masters of Germany
have maintained an attitude Of as
sumed great contempt for America s
war preparations and Americas par
ticipation in the war. The Kaiser,
Hindenburg, and Hertling have all
voiced this contempt. Yet there
are evidences in plenty that in fear
of Americas entry in force into the
war next spring Germany is massing
tremendous forces on the western
front, is preparing to hurl masses of
men into the jaws of death in a des-
perate effort to reach a conclusion
before the might of America becomes
effective. &
The two Liberty Loans in this
country no doubt had a great psyche
logical effect upon the German mind.
The ease with which the tremendous
sums of money were raised, the en-
thusiasm of the workers and of the
subscribers and of, indeed, the whole
Nation, and the heavy oversubscrip-
ton to both loans are evidences that
can not be disregarded that the
American people are in earnest, that
they are behind the American Army
and the American Government, and
are willing to make the sacrifices re-
quired and to support to the utmost
our Nation at war.
That money talks is an old pro-
verb, and the voice of the billions of
dollars representing the First and
Second Liberty Loans was heard
across the sea and carried convic-
ton even to the obsessed Germans.

'BOL. SHEVIKI BITTERLY ASSAILED
BY SOCIALIST BACK FROM RUSSIA

Bolsheviki, tomorrow may go with
extreme reaction"
That all Russian Socialists except
the Bolsheviki agreed that the great
work of laying the ground work foi
reconstruction had been laid by the
provisional government, the Work.
men and Soldiers Council remaining
in the background maintaining order
and keeping the revolution secure
was DR.. Ingerman's declaration.
"They told the people that better
times could not come in one day
and counseled patience until the
provisional government was displaced
by the permanent government elected
by the constituent assembly, which
would represent all elements in Rus
STA to unite all of them for the
great reforms.
Gambled With Nations Future
"But the hotheads prevailed, the
CAIi SdpCuIcu JuG
and on one great gamble the Boil
sheviki staked the welfare of the
revolution. That they will succeed
in this wild experiment the next few
days alone can tell. For their brief
span of power, the leaders of the
successful November uprising, against
the provisional government, which
had only two weeks to live, until the
constituent assembly would meet
have staked all.
"If they did not succeed they were
willing to let the revolution perish
and it seems to me as if it will. That
will be a crime, not only against
the Russian proletariat, but against
the proletariat of the world, and the
aspirations of the militant Socialists
who are fighting for a just, demo-
cratic and lasting peace in all the
countries will be crushed"
DR.. Ingerman says the Bolshevik
move for separate peace already
indicated this disaster.

LIBERTY LOANS
AND GERMANY

II hope that the merchants of the
country, upon more careful con-
sideration of the subject, will dis
continue their efforts to sell mer-
chandise and take Liberty Loan
Bonds in payment" says Secretary
McAdoo.
The Secretary states that he has
no doubt that merchants offering to
take Liberty Loan Bonds in exchange
for merchandise are actuated by pa
triotic motives, but that such trans
actions tend to defeat primary
object of the bond sales, as they
discourage thrift and increase ex-
penditures. Bonds so taken in ex-
change in most cases are immediate
ly sold in the open market, which
tends to suppress the market price
and adversely affects sales of fu-
ture issues.
The strongest efforts are made by
the Treasury Department to have
these Government bonds purchased
for permanent investment by the peo-
pie and paid for out of savings,
thus not only providing funds for
the Government but effecting con-
servation of labor and material; ex-
changing them for merchandise
therefore defeats this purpose.

THE UNPOPULAR RICH

The sworn statement of expendi-
lures in the campaign for reelection
of Mayor Mitchell shows the use of
campaign fund of more than a,
million dollars, to which the largest
contributors were J. P. Morgan, John
D. Rockefeller, George F. Baker and
others of their class. That these
men were the active supporters of
Mr.. Mitchell was generally known by
the people of New York, and there
is no need to look farther for the
reason of his overwhelming defeat.
To be the friend and satisfactory
agent of these men is to be the
friend Of social and economic Or
der that is becoming increasingly
disreputable in the popular mind.
They are not bad men, hut they
are symbols and personifications of
bad order. There is a saying,
popular even among reformers and
radicals that we should not "be
against" man merely because he
is rich. Yet that is precisely why
the people are and should be
against" these men. For Ito the
extent that any generality can be ac-
curate) to be rich these days means
to hold private control over the
community's natural resources and
its commercial and industrial pro-
cesses to an extend that is incom-
patible with the freedom and we'll
being of the majority of its people.
And, whether we believe in personal
devils or not, the growing unpopu-
larity of men who stand as exem-
plars of this order of things reflects
changed public attitude that is to
be welcomed and encouraged.-The
Public.
