as will satisfy the longing of the
whole world for disinterested JUS
tice. embodied in settlements which
are based upon something much
the selfish competitive interests Of
powerful states There is no long
er conjecture as to the objects the
vtctors have in mind. They have a
mind in the matter. not only, but
heart also. Their avowed and con-
certed purpose is to satisfy and
protect the weak as well as to
accord their just rights to the
strong.
The humane temper and intention
OF the victorious governments has
already been manifested in very
practical way. Their representa-
tives In the supreme war council at
Versailles have by unanimous reso-
luton assured TIE peoples of the
central empires that everything
that is possible in the circum-
stances will be done to supply them
with food and relieve the distress
Ing want that is in SO many places
threatening their very lives: and
steps are to be taken Immediately
to- organize these efforts at relief
in the same systematic manner that
they were organized in the case Of
Belgium. By the use Of the idle
tonnage of the central empires 1t
ought presently to be possible to
lift the fear Of utter misery from
their oppressed populations and set
their minds and energies free for
the great and hazardous tasks of
political reconstruction which now
face them on every hand. Hun
ger does not breed reform; it breeds
madness and all the ugly distem-
pers that make an ordered life inn
possible.
Political Change and Revolution.
For with the fall of the ancient
governments which rested like an
tncumbus upon the peoples of the
central empires has come political
change not merely. but revolutions;
and revolution which seems as vet
to assume no final and ordered form

forced to ask themselves, With
what governments q
are we about to deal in the making
OF the co, enantc o ',--a,.p' II
authority win they meet US, and
with what assurance that their au-
thority will abide and sustain Sc
curely the international arrarxe-
mentts into which we are about to
enter: There IS here matter for no
small anxiety and misgiving. When
peace Is made. upon whose promises
and engagements besides our own
Is 1t to rest?
Let us be perfectly frank with
ourselves and admit that these
questions cannot be satisfactorily
answered now or at once. But
the moral Is not that there is
little hope Of an early answer
that will suffice. 1t is only that
we must be patient and helpful
and mindful above all of the great
hope and confidence that lie At
the heart Of what Is taking place.
Excesses accomplish nothing.
Unhappy Russia has furnished
abundant recent proof of that.

j, 8. EMPLOYMENT OFFICE
MAKES NOVEMBER REPORT

The L. S. Employment Service office
at East Chicago had an interesting
month in November. Their report shows
the following facts.
Number of registrations
Number of orders for help------925
Number of applicants referred--7o5
Number of applicants placed---956
These figures are somewhat less than
those for October. The greatest differ
ence comes in the orders for help which
were over a thousand less this month.
This is partly due to the fact that some
labor was released and placed itself in
neighboring plants which were still
short Of help. At the present date, first
week Of December, the office has OPEN
ings for 1926 lahorers, 477 skilled men
ard in the womens division opening for
housekeepers. nurses. domestcs. office
clerks. shopworkers. etc. The Industrial
future does not hook cloudy. by any
means.
& new phase Of the work has come
with, the close Of The war. The employ
ment service has been requested to co.
operate with the Public Reserve Agents.
