TOO LATE

HHE hint comes from Berlin that
Germany is ready to forego the
Zeppelin and the aeroplane raids
upon which she has laid so much
stress if the allies will stop drop
ping bombs on German soil.
Z Germany, in recent months, has
been getting a taste of her own
brand of "frightfulness," and her
people have no stomach for it. It
was all very fine when German raid
ers were numbering women and
babies in French and English cities
and on American ships at sea, but
when the allies began to return the
compliment by blowing up munition
factories, industrial centers and rail-
road depots in the precious father
land, the rejoicing turns to yelps of
dismay and the ''repentent" Germans
beg to be permitted to reform.
The cry comes too late. 1t is like
the German hint that the Kaiser
would not be averse to stopping the
use Of gas in battle. The Germans
have had their turn. and now 1T is

THE SPROUL PLATFORM
philadelphia Bulletin ]

The formal address in which Sem
ator William G. Sproul has an
nouned his views and purposes as a
candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for Governor, is a frank,
clear and direct statement. 1t be-
tokens a wide-awake man who
keeps himself abreast of the ques-
tions of the day, who prepares him.
self to meet the rapidly developing
issues of the near future, and who
is ready to go before the people
without any deceit or evasion in ex-
planning his position.
In the entire address there is
hardly word that is suggestive of
the political clap-trap which ordi-
narily enters into such avowals. It's
author fully realizes the great, over
shadowing duties of the hour in
sinking the customary concerns of
partisanship for the sake of the ma
ton in its crisis. In what he says
on the affairs of our own Common
wealth he speaks the language of
citizen rather than that of a Re-
publican alone.
On the questions of Prohibition
and Woman Suffrage there is no
hesitation or obscurity in Senator
Sprouts opinions. He distinctly de-
clares that he favors the. adoption
by this State of the Federal Pro-
hibition amendment. believes it to be
patriotic duty" on his part to
help in procuring ratification of the
amendment, and thinks that it will
be blessing when this question is
at last removed from the politics of
the State. At the same time he
also announces. with not less empha-
sis, that he is in full sympathy with
the cause of equal suffrage" and ex-
presses the hope that it will be his
privilege to assist in the adoption
of like amendment. Nothing quite
so notable in the effects which ii
will produce on Republican senti-
ment and attitude in Pennsylvania
as regards both these questions has
thus far been heard from anybody,
and there is something like a strong
and positive note of leadership in
the manner in which the Senator
from Delaware county makes known
exactly how he stands on them.
p Now that wei no longer
have State conventions, candidates
are usually expected to make their
own platforms, and Senator Sproul

ana at low prices. employers did not
regard strikes as tragic,
Now it does not matter how will
ing employers might be to dispense
with the services of uneasy, ambi-
tous or turbulent workers. The ma
ton demands that production be not
interrupted. Patriotism insists that
neither employe nor employer do
anything to cause a cessation of pro-
duction. Hence the workers indis-
soluble relation with the vital proc
esses of. the country's existence has
been understood in a novel manner.
That reality is responsible for the
most of the revolution of the fac
tory.
Democracy Has Advanced
The, same impelling motive is to
be found in the record of the me-
diation commission. The repeated
grants of. higher wages have been
somewhat inspired by a recognition
of this force. Production must be
kept up. Production must be accel-
Grated. Nothing must retard the
fabrication of the commodities es-
sential to a triumph. Therefore
labor must be kept in the frame of
mind where strikes are not the OBJ
vious recourse and employers must
be kept in the mood where their
class interests do not lead to trou-
BILE.
That is not the whole story. Dur
ing the last twelve months men and
women of all classes have learned
new things willingly. The continu-
Gus emphasis which the government
has given democracy. which the ac-
Qualities of the war have given DEM
ocracy. have liberalized the minds
of men. If political democracy, if
| self-government, were the prize
worthy of sacrifices being made,
then the suggestion naturally was
born. why is not democracy in in
dustry also good?
The answer to any fairly open
minded person is all too plain. That
mood of concession. that temper of
being willing to concede something
to the democratic idea has also play
ed it's important role in the great
industrial revolution. If every
change had been jealousy opposed,
| if every concession had been grudg-
inglv granted, self government in
| production would be much more re-
mote.

are going to make the home-staying
German people understand in a way
what this war has meant to France,
although allied soldiers never will
do in Germany what the German
beasts have done in Belgium and
France. We are going to use German
weapons against Germany until her
people are made to understand that
as one sows so also shall he reap,
and that the harvest of the wind is
the whirlwind.

LABOR HAS NEW STATUS
War Speed in Production Brings an Industrial
Reconstruction

VXTITHIN the twelve months
wv during which we have been
at war the foundations of
labor have been relaid, writes Will
liam L. Chenery, in the Chicago
Herald. Radical chages have come
to pass; precedents have been estab-
lished; new attitudes have been
quietly accepted. Industrial recon-
struction has advanced to an aston
ishing degree. Democracy is more
nearly a reality in industry than
would have. seemed possible a short
time ago. Never has a single year
brought so much of progress to the
working people of the country. The
basis of society has been changed.
The new status of labor is re,
1ected in the changes recorded at
washington. Here are some Of the
salient characteristics of the pres
ent situation:
For the first time in our history
the government itself has definitely
sponsored liberal labor policies.
For the first time a clear-cut poll
icy assuring decent standards to all
the private establishments of the
country has been determined.
iOi lhS HISI TIME the principle
of trade unionism as such has been
accepted by the country.
For the first time hours and
wages have become matters of rec
ogniZed national importance.
For the first time the nation has
assumed responsibility for the kind
of houses in which some of its
workers live.
For the first time the condition
of labor has been transferred from
the realm of private interest to that
OF national concern.
Production Heart of Revolution
The heart Of the revolution
through which we are passing is to
be found in production. The war
necessitated production, Immediate
production, the largest possible pro-
duction. Forthwith the country dis
covered that the wage-earners were
inseparably connected with produc-
ton. Previously there had always
been more workers than jobs. Con-
sequently the importance of the in
dividual worker was not always ap-
parent. When strikebreakers were
always obtainable on short notice

BUT WHY WASTE IT?

DRESIDENT WILSON persists in
Hdodging the issue of wartime
prohibition. By a stroke of his
pen he could, under the law. stop the
manufacture of beer during the
duration of the war. Yesterday. when
a party of distinguished Methodist
ministers called upon him at the
White House to plead with him to
save to the people the millions of
bushels of grain now going into the
manufacture of malt liquors. he
talked at length upon the necessity of
producing the maximum amount of
food to keep ourselves and our allies
in provisions during the period of
hostilities and said that any steps
necessary to this end will be taken.
But we are not interested in pro-
duction alone. Man-power is the
gravest problem now confronting the
nation. Why, then, waste in the
making of liquor both the grain
which the farmers have worked to
produce and the man-power required
TO make and deliver liquor, even
though there be enough remaining
to keep us from starving if we eat
sparingly? Why not turn this sur
plus man-power to something use
fll? With the government wedding
out ''unessential" industries why con-
tinue one that is both unnecessary
and wasteful?
With this uncertain attitude of
the President on the prohibition
question, it is little wonder that Judge
Bonniwell has found courage to run
as a candidate for Governor on the
Democratic ticket on a wet" plat
form and that he has found no in
considerable following within the
ranks of that party. When leader
ship hesitates it is easy to under
stand how it happens that the rank
and file are divided.

1t is becoming more and more evil
dent that unless and until the admin
istration at Washington issues a def
mite and final edict against the con-
sumption of wheat in the United
States. there will be constant infrac-
tions of the rules of the food authori-
ties. At least until the new crop of
this year. wheat ought to be prac-
tically eliminated as an article of
food, so that our allies and our SOL
1iers may be abundantly supplied. If
people will not voluntarily conform
their appetites to the needs of the
nation they should be compelled to
do so. There is abundance of food
other than wheat, and now is the
time to divert all that we have to
