square with your associates, then keep
on the job and see that they do the
same. And the best of it is, say the
old friends of Bellesfield. his honors
haven't changed him in the least and
he retains his deep interest in the
labor movement, altho he is naturally
divorced from an active participation
in its affairs.

Some say that he doesn't carry the

BELL AND JIM IN WHO'S WHO"

The Wyoming Labor Journal prints
n column of who's Who in Labor
Circles" Last weeks issue contained
the following concerning two well
known Colorado labor lights:
Virtue hath his own reward" but.
also, "the early bird catches the
worm," and both of these adages hold
true in the remarkable record estab-
lished by Sherman S. Bellesfeld, for
mer knight of the type-stick and now
postmaster of Pueblo, Colo. Before
reaching this dizzy height, Bell had
his full measure of troubles. He
worked as printer in Sioux CITY,
Cripple Creek, Denver and other flag
stations before sighting the possibili-
ties of the City on the Arkansas. We
see where Walter Wilder claims him
as an exclusive product of the Pueblo
Chieftain plant, but nix on this.
The germ of true greatness, which
said germ has firmly implanted itself
in the corporate person of Bellesfield.
was given fertility by his association
with such characters as Harry Nc
Intyre, now of the United States mar
shals office, Denver; Harry Parker,
now working a machine on the Kansas
City Star; Clint C. Houston of The
Denver Labor Bulletin, and numerous
other satellites. away back" yonder
in the days when to propose that
union men elect their own men to po-
litical office was akin to suicide,
BELL" was elected to the state legis-
lature. He performed so satisfac-
torily that he was returned and ele-
waited to the state senate.
The legislative records of these ses-
sions are ample evidence Of his use
fulness to the labor movement of his
section and state. When the post
mastership of Pueblo was looking for
n soft place to drop, and Bob Higgins,
now state treasurer. was making GOO
goo eyes at it, it just naturally, thanks
to Ed Keating, fell on the shoulders
of Bellesficld. He has made splen-
did record in the position and we are
all glad to read that, since his re-
appointment following n successful
examination, he can be removed only
for cause for we know that will mean
life tenure. Gee, we pity any of
those poor suckers who are still cast

WE ARE ALL ON A
MERRY-GO-ROUND
BUT WAGES CAN'T CATCH
UP WITH LIVING COST.
Cooperation Between Labor and Capt.
tai Is Necessary to Stabilize Sell
ing Price and Wages Paid, and
Stop Chasing Around Circle.
By ROGER W. BABsoN.

In a town near where l live are
several factories which make shoes
for working people. Before the war
these shoes sold at from 81 to SO a
pair.
After war was declared and the
allies began to buy leather for belts,
saddles and other equipment, the price
of leather went up. The same thing
was true of leather as of cotton, wool,
steel, etc. This made it necessary for
these shoe factories to add so cents to
the price of a pair of shoes.
As l say, these shoes are worn by
working people thruout New England,
and when the price of the shoes went
up with the price of clothing, food,
etc, these working people had to have
higher wages. Therefore wages were
advanced to meet the higher cost of
living.
AS the wages in shoe factories in
creased with the wages elsewhere, the
shoe manufacturers had further to
increase the price of shoes another so
wages. Unless this had been done,
the factory would have been shut
down No manufacturer could con-
tinue to make shoes at a loss.
When shoes were advanced in price
a second time, clothing, food and
other things were advanced again by
their manufacturers for the same rea-
son. This, however, made it neces-
sary for the working people to have
another advance in wages to meet this
second advance in prices.
But this second advance in wages
made it necessary for the manufac-
turers to make still another advance
in prices. This they have done, and
now shoes are selling for almost dou-
bic what they did before the war,
while wages have advanced only about
half as much.
We cannot blame either manufac-
turers or wage earners. Both have
needed to do what they did; but
neither side has been better off after
getting more money. The truth is,
that we all have been chasing one an
other around a circle. We are all on
a merry-go-roundi
What is the solution?
The only solution is that we all
employers and employes-should get
together and outline plan % to in
crease production without greater Ia
Dor; and (2) to distribute this produc-
ton so that those who really deserve
the goods will get them.
This is the great need of the hour.

The Ferry Schedules

There ought to be some understanding between the Perth. Amboy
patrons of the Staten Island Rapid Transit and the railroad company
over the schedule advertised for that railroad. If the ferry that the
Rapid Transit operates between this city and TOttenvine is for the
benefit Of automobiles exclusively and passengers on the railroad are
to receive only second consideration or no consideration whatever,
the fact ought to be known. 1t is unfair to advertise a railroad
schedule and then ignore it altogether.
1t has happened more than once that persons on the way to catch
tic boat advertised to leave at a certain time have arrived at the
smith street hill only to see the boat pulling out for Tottenville sew
eral minutes ahead of time. This is especially likely to happen when
automobile traffic is heavy. OF course, the boat comes right back, but
by the time it starts out again from this side it is several minutes
past the schedule and passengers intending to catch a train are rather
indiferently informed that the train will not wait for this second
trip. The result is, persons desiring to get to New York are left
through no fault of their own.
Either the Rapid Transit should be made to live up to its SEIZED
ule for trains or the schedule should be abandoned altogether. The
least that could be done would be to hold the train at Tottenvine a
few minutes when there are passengers left at Perth Amboy because
the ferryboat, in its desire to pile up its wealth carrying automobiles,
leaves ahead of time.
The Rapid Transit has operated this ferry about as it has pleased
for some time, being able to dodge successfully between the New
Jersey Utility Commission and the New York Utility Commission. 1t
is time, however, that something was done to improve the service.
The least than can be asked is that the boat keep its train schedules.

-Four Years of 1t

"Let us have peace!'
So spoke the master militarist of America two and fifty years
ago.
So say we, men and women of America, after viewing the desola-
ton and destruction of four years of the worst warfare the earth has
ever known. Let us have peace-JUST AS SOON AS THE
BROKEN SWORD OF PRUSSIANISM IS RENDERED IN UNCON-
OPTIONAL SURRENDER.
Protesting war, we are forced to believe in a war which became

cry, by rapne and murder, by the outrage of every superior sense
and emotion, then Germany is right. If Might is God and Schreck-
lichket is its prophet, then Prussianism is justified. Welcome peace
and welcome the shackles which shall bind the world
But if these are wrong, then Germany is wrong, and we dare not
submit or quit until her power is no longer a menace. As long as
Germany proclaims, by word or deed, that Might is Right, so long
must she be opposed by Might,
Let us have peace but let it be a peace between peers. The only
peer of democracy is democracy. When Prussianism fouted its own
royal bonded word as "a scrap of paper, :" it forever abjured all right

More Rest and Recreation Spots

There is an increasing demand for rest and recreation places in
the center of the city. While Perth Amboy is building up rapidly the
matter of proper open spaces in the thickly populated sections and in
the business district should be given consideration. Perhaps the COM
mitee o n city planning appointed by the Board of Trade will make
this a part of its program.
But without waiting for the city planning to start, would 1t not
be possible to do something along this line with such facilities as the
city, already hast There ire several spots about the city that could
III S4ed up with a few benches for rest and recreation. The plot at
iii = Brunswick avenue and Fayette street, being in a thickly popu-
Is section and handy to the business section Of the city, would be
IDEAL spot for band concerts. Being so centrally located 1t might
III ieye some of the congestion on Smith street which, on certain
II easions, is used for a promenade.
Perth Amboy has had so many strangers come here during the
asst year, and with all the soldiers in the vicinity, the city owes some
Nning to the people in the way of rest and recreation. Other cities all
the country are going into this sort of work more heavily than
ever, as much Is patriotic duty as anything else. Perth Amboy has
not many facilites-not as many as it will have, let us hope, after
the city planning commission is appointed and definite plans take
shape-but such as it has ought TO be utilized to the fullest extent.
It is a civic duty as well as a patriotic duty to do this.
