Chicago, Jan. 17.-The immediate
taking over OF all the packing plants
in the United States will be urged
upon President Wilson by delegation
representing every craft in the indus
try and headed by John Fitzpatrick.
president OF the Chicago Federation
OF Labor. which departed for Washing
ton.
A statement issued by representa-
tives of the employees said:
The organized packers of the coun-
try have refused to meet us or to CO.
operate with us In any manner in this
great world crisis. They have braZen-
ly repudiated the solemn agreement
entered into between the President
and ourselves through his mediation
commission upon last Christmas morn
ing
''The packing industry Is the most
vital and important one in the nation.
To permit this industry during the
progress of a world war to remain in
the private hands of very few men
would not only be ridiculous from the
standpoint OF governmental policy,
but highly dangerous to the cause of
civilization and world democracy for
which we are struggling"
The workers propose to President
Wilson that In case the plants are
taken over they will enlist as the first
members of Americas industrial army
and will guarantee the government
full-handed equipment for every pack
ing plant in the United States. They
also propose to leave all conditions of
employment and wages to the govern
ment.

In addition to the five-day holiday

The problem Of labor for our
farms is looming up as the one
great question, and In many local
tiles is becoming really serious
Even before we were in war it was
a matter Of concern. Now the
matter can no longer be lightly
set aside. There is no doubt that
iu1 less steps are taken, before
entire war draft is run out, to re
cruit the ranks Of farm labor, it
will be physical impossibility
for our farms to meet the demands
that will be made upon them an
other season. Many localities re
port that even now the scarcity
Of farm labor is seriously Grip
ping operation, and when the
draft is completed the situation
will be even more serious. It is
hoped that the amended regula-
tons. will tend to relieve the situa-
ton. From the present outlook,
it would seem thepart Of wisdom
that the draft apply to farm labor
equally with the army. It would
be hard to tell. which is the most
important just at this time. Ger
tain it is that without the farmer
our armies will be impotent.

his own manhood to devote to
the development Of his commu-
nifty Of his community the same
energies that have won his sue
cess. And in this age Of schools
and churches, Of telephones, ru-
raj mails and automobiles, most
particulars it has town life beaten
to finish.
Watch the man who affects to de-
snise wealth. There's something
wrong with his mental makeup.
Wealth is the visible evidence OF
industry; it is the vehicle
through which all human actlvl-
ties accomplish their results. A
sordid greed for gold is repulslve
to all right thinking persons, but
the man who has true apprecla-
tion of the value Of ewalth-be 1t
in money or what not-has no
appreciation Of the worth OF hui
man ambition. He lacks the real
inspiration Of that moves to sue
cessful affort. The spendthrlft IS
not the most desirable Of char
acters, but he is paragon be-
side the man totally lacking IN the
ambition to accumulate the re-
wards Of industry. The fellow
who has nothing and wants less
is simply a clog on the wheels OF
progress, and the world were bet
ter off without him.
The plan Of the government to
raise funds through the sale OF
war saving certificate stamps IS
one Of the most commendable
plans yet instituted. The sale OF
Liberty Bonds was and is neces-
sarily circunscribed because these
bonds could not be issued in small
denomination sufficient to in
clude the small savings Of the
millions who handle only small
means. With savings stamps,
however, all can have hand IN
financing their government. Mil
lions who felt themselves unable
to spare the amount Of a bond
can contribute through this chan
mel. And thefact that every pen
ny invested in these stamps is SO
much saved and invested at a pro-
fit, should inspire in the American
people a spirit Of thrift and saw
ing that has heretofore been to-
tally foreign to our natures. The
response should be universal.
