THE PORK BARREL.

Periodically every time the state legislature
meets, we hear long harangues especially from
the farmers and residents Of the smaller cities of
our state, about the road 'pork barrel" and it's
effect on taxes, and it's injustice and heavy cost.
And yet right now in Thurston county we have
the best illustration Of pork barrel and the rea.
SONS for it anyone could want, and we appear to
be going to indulge in it to our hearts content.
We refer, Of course to the fact that, so the
county may avail itself Of governmental aid and
make an Improvement which is admittedly need
ed, the completion Of the Pacific highway pave
ment between Olympia and the Pierce county
line, it also appears to be necessary to 'sweeten
the kitty sufficiently SO that the. Westsiders can
get the bridge they want, residents out Tumwater
and Tenino way can get some paving they desire,
citizens Of Yelm can come in for substantial
chunk and all the other sections Of the county get
q share Of large total expenditure
This is not said in any spirit Of criticism, any
desire to beg the question or to oppose large
bond issne-its whole purpose is merely to call
attention to that particularly prominent feature
Of human nature in its attitude toward govern
menal affairs which says: ''You cannot have
what yon want unless you give me what want. "
That Is the essence Of the 'pork barrel, the sole
and only and always compelling reason for it.
Il will be with us always, will the sspork bar
rel, 30 long as human nature is as it is and the
chief aim Of the most Of rs is to get all we can
for ourselves ont Of the grab-bag.

A WORLD LEADER.

COntemperaneous history seldom judges man
as does that Of later years, when the perspective
Of events tends to remove the pettier things and
sets out in bold relief those stellar features upon
which the world 8 judgment Of man and an Off
cial is based So it is all the more remarkable
that in this time of unusual happenings, when
crises arise with such startling rapidity and men
and measures and events are measured from the
mountain tops Of tremendously critical period,
one man should stand out so prominently among
the great men Of all the nations as the leader
Of the democracies Of the world their spokesman
and champion SO universally accepted, as does
President Wilson.
Speaking Of him as Zone Of the great Demo-
Gratis Of history" w. w. Jermane, Washington
correspondent Of the Seattle Times, also goes on
to say he is "a man whose leadership is almost as
unquestioned in Europe as in the United States;
whose voice has worldwide carriage power and
responsiveness never until now given to any
American president, and who is to have potent
influence in shaping the world for the enjoyment
OF the blessings of popular government"
That statement is the echo Of the opinion of
the national capital and, through the force Of
preston of the representatives there of other
nations of the opinion of large part Of the
world. Witness the events of the past ten
months From the moment of the presidents
address urging congress to recognize state of
war with Germany, last spring, the aspect Of that
great conflict has changed, from his definitions of
Americas reasons and Americas purposes then
stated and since oft repeated to that fundamental
question of conflict between the democracies and
the autocraces of the world.

OUR WAR AIMS THE PRINCIPLE OF
JUSTICE TO ALL PEOPLES.

An evident principle runs through the
whole program l have outlined. 1t is the
principle Of justice to all peoples and ma
tionalities, and their right to live on equal
terms of liberty and safety with one an
other, whether they be strong or weak IN
less this principle be made its foundation no
part Of the structure Of international justice
can stand. The people of the United States
could act upon no other principle; and to
the vindication Of this principle they are
ready to devote their lives, their honor, and
everything that they possess. The moral
climax of this, the eliminating and final war
for human liberty, has come, and they are
ready to put their own strength, their own
highest purpose, their own integrity and de-
votion to the testFrom President Will

j. S. HAS ENOUGH
WORKERS FOR ALL
WAR INDUSTRIES

America has enough men for all
war Industries.
There are millions of skilled work
men and Iaborers, and, despite the
fact that more millions are under
arms, that there is a hysteria reign
ing in shop and office. born OF wide
spread and unfounded belief in a gen
eraI labor shortage, the Department
OF Labor has dug into the problem
through the state branches OF the
United States Employment Service
and found employers calling for
thousands when only scores are need
ed, and often with absolutely no
housing arrangements for the men.
Charged with the dual responsible
ty OF placing labor and providing
adequate housing, Secretary OF Labor
Wilson has authorized common
sense appeal to Industries through
the weekly bulletin of the service.
issued today. in which eNtTavagant
calls for labor are severely criticised.
The Labor Department has an
nounced there are six industrial work
ers behind each man under arms, and
all Governmental departments have
ceased independent efforts TO supply
workers for those Industries in which
they are directly interested. leaving
the mobilization Of labor to the en-
ployment service, with'the enrolment
in charge OF the state directors OF
the public service reserves.
There is an urgent need for em-
ployers to cease exaggerated adver-
Using and to rely on Federal en-
ployment service for labor in war in
dustries; the problem is solely one OF
distribution. and wild. sporadic sp-
peals tend to create imitation and in
dustrial confusion, and accordingly
the Labor Department is investigat-
ing every large demand for workers.
