THE WEST

The west, the southwest and the middle west have done much to win the war Be fore we went into war 1t was the New Eng
 land and the North Atlantic states that were the loudest in their clamors for war They taunted the middle west with an ac- cusation of pacifism. It was not pacifism but apathy, an unrealization of what had suddenly risen up to confront the whole world We could not believe that war was vital to our wellbeing The sentiment of this part of the country and the west gen orally was fairly well reflected by the atti- tude of the representatives in congress to- ward the various war preparation bills. But the east was for war so violently that some explanation-we were about to err in say ing that it furnished some attenuation of the pettish remark of Chairman Kitchin that he had arranged the war revenue bill so that the burden of the war would fall upon the northeast, which so much want ed war.
 But the people of the west and middle west changed over night when the call to arms came. It changed before their rep resentatives in congress could realize it. The west was suddenly all for war; and 1t proved its earnestness in variety of sub stantial ways; first in voluntary enlist ments for military and naval service. There all the Atlantic states from Maine to Flor ida Jagged. Though for war, comparative ly few of the citizens of that part of the country were at first for fighting when war had become fact
 The first Liberty loan offer furnished the next test. There again the west and middle west led the country, and they have done it since in every Red Cross drive and in every war work campaign. That has been notably so in the united war work campaign just closed and in which Arizona has played so conspicuous part.
 We are not intending to convey that greater share of the glory of the war be- longs to one part of the country than to another. It is American glory and is indi- vidual and indivisable. The boys from New England the boys from the south and from the middle west and the Golden west have fought side by side with equal brave ", and to them belongs in equal measure and to those who supported them, the glory of the war.
 The differences between sections are not differences of degrees of patriotism, but differences of habits There is less emo ton in the west, less waving of flags less of outward show, so much less that we sometimes feared that we did not yet quite realize what the war meant. But all the time we were steadily doing the things needed to be done to win the war.

recently, on his way back from a tour
of the Pacific coast, number of sugar
plantation owners came to the U. S.
Employment Service office there and
protested against the fact that farm
laborers were permitted to leave the
state to go into war industries.
What are you willing to pay. for
farm labor?" they were asked.
NINETY cents a day." was the re-
ply.
Later on, the assistant secretary
learned that the sugar planta tons are
not short-handed, except in cases
where these starvation terms were Of
fered to the men.
In southern California the wage for
common labor is in many localities
from 50 to $2.75 a day, while across
The border in Mexico farm hands can
get So to $3.50 gold. Along the Texas
border the advantage in wages was
reported to be often in favor Of the
man working south of the line. This,
in face of neWspa per reports that tens
of thousands of Mexicans were wad-
ing the Rio Grande at night in order
to earn fabulous sums as day laborers
in Texas.
A puzzling situation was reported in
certain shipyards on the Pacific coast
The management claimed that their
men were Stacking. Skilled mechanics
claimed that large part of the fore
men were draft dodgers or incompes
tents. Some Of the men stated that
they ran out of work within a few
ftNx,
upon reporting to the foremen were
asked, sharply, whether they didn't
know enough to get out of sight
somewhere
The situation is to be investigated
and cleaned up. It seems the more
necessary in view of the warning sent
out by the Shipping board that Ger
man propagandists are trying to keep
men out of the shipyards, by a cam
paign of lies. These German-maoe
lies generally declare that men are
being killed in this or that yard by
careless fellow WOrkmen, or that men
are every day losing their eyesight at
the shipbuilding trades, or that men
are daily being killed in the yards by
electric shock. The Shipping board
says that another 100000 men are
wanted in the shipyards It will CO.
operate with the Labor department in
getting rid of any stacking that may
be found in the coming investigation.
Receive Lower Wages.
When the Kansas City street rail-
way employees case was before the
National War Labor board, this week,
counsel for the company admitted
that about 800 women were employed
at a minimum guaranteed wage of
$50 month, while men hired for
exactly the same work were guaran-
teed $75 a month";
1--WE claim that we are paying a
generous, fair wage today" said the
company's lawyer. Back in 1900 we
paid IS cents an hour and got all the
help we wanted. Now we pay from
80 to SO cents an hour, or maximum
increase Of 146 per cent. The cost of
living has increased only 81 per cent
in that time. That proves that we
are paying enough"

answered that he would gladly have

The coal wage discussion is now under

The, labor group in the house is
small. Half a. dozen men are it's &C

men. unless he be replaced by a man
still more active in the wage workers

the next two years.
Ben Hilliard of Denver is one of the

Just before the war, and is safely

nominee has been a professional cor
poration lobbyist in the city of WASH
ington, for the last three years, ac-
cording to the testimony of the Den
YER Labor Bulletin. He seems to have
been trying to induce congress to give
away the immensely valuable oil lands
still owned by us ordinary people, to
the oil companies.
This former officer of the National
guard of Colorado, and this oil lobby
list. have had the support of the Wall
Street Security league in attacking

Speaker Clark and Majority Leader
Kitchin have sent to Denver a tele-
gram saying: Nobody in Washing
ton questions his sincere motives and
patriotism, and all here admire his
courageous qualities. No man in either
house of congress has given more
loyal and Industrious aid in the Wig
orous prosecution of the war and in
supporting all war measures of the
administration. It is unjust to ques-
ton his loyalty. No member Of con-
gress' questions it. He has the esteem
and confidence of the entire member
ship of the house."
That disposes of the "loyalty' gas
attack. But the reason why billiard
will be reelected against the corpo-
ration lawyer and the corporation lob
byist is that there is a majority in
that district that does not stand for
oil profiteers, beef trust protiteers,
railroad profiteers, nor their agile
footmen. And billiards case is only
typical of a good many, all over the
country, in this election year. A gil
gantic game is on, to fool the entire
labor movement. Labor won't be
fooled.
