THE SURRENDER OF The SUBS.

The submarine which was 10 change

the sea the other day to eat out Of
the hand of those whom It had hoped
to destroy Il surely was great sight
to see when the first contingent OF L
boats come creeping up from the Shiny
depths to surrender st. Patrick again
chasing the snakes out II Ireland.
There was no demonstration. They
came IN silence. Their crews departed
from them and the black sea snakes
lay idle on the water. Their part IN
the scheme 10 ensi4ve the world had
gone awry with the scheme Itself In
stead OF enslaving the world they had
become slaves themselves.
Stolen from an inventive nation and
completed by painstaking labor and
experiment Germany forged the sub
marine into an effective bravo Of the
seas. an assassin OF the water lanes.
Upon the sub il buildec largely its
edifice of hope. 1t seemed to Germany
that nothing could meet and conquer
it. 1t was the carefully laid plan Of the
murderer and the ro1ber which always
has its fatal weakness. The SUI
menace was met by invention and
courage with right and justice on their
side and right and justice generally
turn the scale in this world of ours
So the sub failed as crime usually
fails in it's instruments. Il came at last
creeping to the feet OF the nations it
had attempted to destroy pleading FOR
the right to live. as crime caught and
convicted and condemned usually does
What is the future OF the U-boat in
war? Let's hope that war is dead OF
| earth for long generations. And if sc
and war should ever come again
| deadlier devices for human destruction
will have replaced the submarine.

Labor After the War

nv Gompers's hopes for the welfare
and happiness of wage earners after
the war will be shared by all men OF
good will and enlightened minds. Mr..
Gompers has right to speak for
American labor. BY his loyal devo-
ton to the great cause of freedom, TO
the war policies Of the government, he
has earned the right to speak to the
American people. We hope his briet
address to the Pan-American Labor
Conference at Laredo will have ser
ious attention not only in the ranks OF
labor but thruout the country. This
passage in particular Is worthy OK
note:
Our movement is not to destroy but
to construct, and ali may just as well
understand now as at any other time
that the advantages which the work
ers of America and the allied countries
have gained and which We hope even
20 extend to the peoples OF the con-
uucred countries are not going to De
taken away from US. and We will re-
sist the attempt to the uttermost"
He would DE a bad American who
advantages they have gained. MT.
Gompers was moved to those remarks
by the recent declaration OF William
H. Barr. of Buffalo, President OF the
National Founders Association, that
the eight-hour day would have to be
abolished and that wages must come
down from their present scale. Notice
is given here and now" said MI
Gompers, speaking with a full sense
of responsibility, that the American
working people will not be forced back
either b. Barr. his association, or all
the Bourbons in the United States.
Labor need have no fear OF the
Bars and the Bourbons. SO far as the
advantages it has gained are real. SO
far as they can be maintained and
sustained in normal conditions. so Tar
as they are part Of the general ad-
vantages shared by all, they viii De
permanent.
Mr.. Gompers says that the adyan-
tages labor has gained "are not going
to be taken away from US, and we will
resist the attempt to the uttermost. II
he means that labor must share In the
general gains due to the war, there
will be no dissent. II he means speci-
fically that labor will fight to retain.
whatever may come and in all conh-
tions. the wages and hours Of war
employment. we must remind him that
his challenge runs, not to the Bars
and the Bourbons, but to forces
mishtier than they or than his great
army Of organized labor.

wages have begotten prodigality in
expenditures. A working man who used
to be content with a pair Of shoes at
$3.50 has willingly paid 81 or IS a pair
for shoes probably no better. He could
afford it. 1t will be different now. The
time for saving Is coming. Leather
will be cheaper, shoes cheaper. The
workingman will look about for shoes
at the old prices and the manufact-
urers will strive to supply his want
Some may be able to sell their product
at former prices. With short hours and
paying war wages many manufactur-
ers will be unable to make q profit
selling shoes at the old prices; their
trade will fall OF. the undersener Will
get it. Increased production and COM
petition" will control the market. They
will control manufacturers or they Will
go out Of business.
The other matter appropriate for the
very attentive consideration OF MI.
Gompers is the ending OF the strike IT
the army supply base in South Brook
lyn. Five thousand men struck be-
cause the government abolished over
time and returned to an eight-houf
day. Mr.. Gompers said at Laredo that
it was the policy Of employers TO try
to force down wages and lengthen the
hours Of labor" In South Brooklyn
the men struck against shorter hours,
against the eight-hour day! The ~0n-
tradiction lies in the phrase, not in the
fact. As was shown in the affair OF
the Railroad Brotherhoods two years
ago, demands for an eight-hour day
are in most cases demands for higher
pay for ten hours work, overtime In
crease being the real end sought All
this Is instructive. In all PROBABILITY
the industries Of the country can not
be operated at capacity with eight
hours Of labor per DAY. More than that
was required to build up our indus
tries, more viii be required to sustain
them. When conditions make It pos
sfble to operate on the plan Of eight
hours and overtime Ill goes we'll y
conditions change, a. change they
often do-well. the governments order
to return to eight hours It South
Brooklyn shows one solution. That va

of output in private industries u .
very different matter. When that be-
gins Mr.. Gompers will have need OF III
his wisdom and moderation.
We are. all going to have>somsfhins
to think about, many things. One Is
that nobody is,wholly independent. No
individual, no class, can mark out
way and go that way regardless OF
what Others may do. That was the
way OF the German kaiser. the way OF
absolutism. which MI. Gompefs says
is gone. Capital. finance. employers
and employed, markets, and the nov
of commodities are all subject to
natural laws that none Of them can
disregard. One law IL that high wages
make high prices. Mr.. Gompers may
discover that since prices must fall u
wages have to fall, labor. after all. Will
have sacrificed none Of the advantages

FOREIGN LANGUAGE LEGISLATION.

When the legislature meets again
one thing is certain to come before it
the foreign language question. IL
will REQUIRE to be handled with strong
common sense and poise on the part OF
legislators. A war time proclamation
issued in the midst OF warfare Is one
thing; an Iowa statute created in
peace is another A statute can not be
properly "explained' and modified here
and there by executives. 1t will either
be ignored or enforced generally over
the state.
A statute following closely the lines
Of that proclamation" would be ridi-
culous in peace times. To deny all use
of languages except English in Iowa
whether that of an ally or an enemy
to ban French and Czech and Slav,
Italian and Spanish utterly would be
an exhibition of narrowness that no
state Is likely to afford. If the idea is.
as seems to be among some insistent
advocates of stringent legislation, to
permit none to use any language that
all are not familiar enough to under
stand we shall have TO discontinue
Latin and all other dead languages.
What the legislature should do and
as an ordinary assembly Of ordinary
Iowans with ordinary common sense
