A 1000 map OF europe today shows
not a single country in which the fu-
ture does not hold threat of serious
difficulties and only small part which
is not rapidly approaching the famine
point. With the exception of the
Ukraine only those countries which
have maintained marine commerce
have sufficient food supplies to meet
actual needs until next harvest, and
even in the Ukraine, with stores accu-
mulated on the farms, there is famine
In the large centers of population.
Belgium and northern France, as
well as Serbia, appear on the hunger
map distinct from the rest of Europe
because they stand in different rela-
ton from the other nations to the peo-
pie of the United States. America has
for four years maintained the small
war rations of Belgium and northern
France and Is already making special
efforts 10 care for their increased
after-the-war needs, which, with those
of Serbia, must be included In this
plan, are urgent in the extreme and
must have immediate relief.
The gratitude of the Belgian nation
for the help America has extended to
her during the war constitutes the
strongest appeal for us to continue our
work there. The moment the German
armies withdrew from her soil and she
was established once more in her own

seat of government the little nations
first thought was to express her graft
tude to the Commission for Relief In
Belgium for preserving the lives of
millions of her citizens.
Germany, on the other hand, need
not figure in such a map for Ameri-
cans because there is no present indi-
cation that we shall be called on at all
to take thought for the food needs of
Germany. Germany probably can care
for her own food problem II she is
given access to shipping and is enabled
to distribute food to the cities with
dense populations, which are the trou-
BILE centers.
England. France, the Netherlands
and Portugal, all of which have been
maintained from American supplies,
have sufficient food to meet immediate
needs, but their future presents seri-
Gus difficulties. The same is true of
Spain and the northern neutral coun-
tries-Norway, Sweden and Denmark
whose ports have been open and who
have been able to draw to some degree
upon foreign supplies.
Most of Russia is already in the
throes of famine. and 10000, 900 people
there are beyond the possibility of
help. Before another spring thou
sands of them inevitably must die.
This applies as well to Poland and

1t is often the case that employers
refuse to deal with committees repre-
senting their own employees; but even
in these instances they never refused
to meet and discuss the merits of the
dispute with the conciliators of the
department.

partmeA of Labor not to endeavor to

vice have thus far prevented unem-
ployment. Secretary Wilson submit
ted figures from 110 of the principal
cities and surrounding districts show
ing that in % of them there is short
age of labor, in seven there is labor
surplus and in the remainder the sup
ply and the demand are on an equality.
Before the committee the secretary
expressed the belief that for number
of years to come there will be no low
ering of the price of labor. Indeed,
there will be a demand for labor be-
yond the ability of the country to sup
ply. This opinion the secretary of la
Dor supported with a clear summary
of trade possibilities with South Amer
lea if the merchants of the United
States would grasp these opportun-
tiles that lie at our doors.
Aside from the expansion of trade
and the labor needs at home thru re-
suming public work where it was left
off at the beginning of the war, the
secretary declared it to be his judg-
ment that for number of years after
the war immigration will not be re-
newed on the same scale that it was
prior to the war.
The demand for labor in the coun-
tries of Europe which formerly sup
piled immigrants to America will
keep these immigrants at home.
Many of these countries have laws
restricting the migration of their in
habitants beyond their national bor-
ders which before the war were not
enforced, but it is reasonable to be-
lieve that because of the shortage of
man power, even in spite of the
changed political conditions of most of
Europe, such laws will be rigidly en-
forced after the war. Besides this,
the labor situation in that part of Eu-
rope which served as feeder to our
population in the last few years is far
better now than it was in pre-war
times.
Conditions being nearly equal so far
as hours and wages are concerned, the

be to remain at home.
These factors, joined with the nat
ural demands for labor to carry on
the normal domestic trade interrupted
by the war, justified the secretary in
expressing the view that from the
time we restore ourselves to normal
postwar activities the demand for
peace time production will be so great
that there will be little chance of Sc
curing any reduction in the wage
rates from their present basis.
On the question of providing work
for the unemployed merely for the
sake of giving work, the secretary de-
clared against such plan as wasteful.
But the carrying on of necessary pub
lie work, such as the building of
roads, the Improvement of rivers and
harbors, the clearing of land and the
erection of public buildings, tho not
now needed, were necessary and added
to the value of the country. There
fore, in order to maintain the labor
status until industry could absorb the
surplus labor in a normal way the pub
lie course pointed to effecting such a
plan of labor employment.
"If you have millions of men out of
employment" declared the secretary,
"and by virtue Of their being out of
employment unable to supply food and
clothing and shelter for their families,
they are not going to stop to inquire
whether work is necessary or unnec-
essary; they are going to insist upon
the opportunity to earn a livelihood.

ments will see to it that every man

LODGED
AND ADJUSTED
REMARKABLE RECORD BY
u. S. DEPT. OF LABOR.
Division of Consolidation Kept Busy
and Most Gratifying Results Were
Obtained Immediately Between
Contending Factions.

Remarkable growth of the work of
the Division of Cancellation, u S. De-
partment of Labor, during the last
year is shown in the annual report of
the secretary of labor, William b.
Wilson, just issued.
The division handled 1,217 cases
during the year and adjusted 865.
The mediators were unable to arrange
an adjustment in only II instances; /;
208 cases were pending at the end of
the fiscal year, sc had been referred
for final adjudication to the national
war labor board, and seven were re-
ported "unclassified." The number of
workmen directly affected in these
cases was 1,041 ,342, and indirectly,
1,315,657. In 1917, 378 case were
handled, and in 1916, 33.
Vastly increased production for war
purposes was facilitated by the service
of the division, the secretary declares.
"The anxiety of the government" I"
he says, particularly at this time, for
a full production from mine, mill and
factory, in order that the war prog
ress of the United States and our al
lied associates might be unhampered,
caused the commissioners of concilia-
ton to strain every effort to secure
satisfactory adjustments in all cases
with the special purpose of preventing
wherever possible any stoppage. of
work and consequent loss in output
and wages"
"a majority of the employers and
employees involved in controversies
evinced a keen desire to secure the
good Offices of the Department of La
Dor thru its conciliators, and to take
advantage of the machinery of the de-
partment," the secretary continues.
"During the four years the division of
conciliation has been in existence the
foundation has been laid for quick ad-
justment of such disputes. 1t had been
demonstrated that the Intervention Of
an impartial third party in the person
of conciliator approved by the de-
partment has invariably expedited
the settlement of the dispute, strike
or lockout. In large number of in
stances the conciliators have been able
not only to bring about agreement in
cases Of existing differences-often
arising from Observation-Disclosures

Bohemia. Serbia, Roumania and
Montenegro have already reached the
famine point and are suffering "a heavy
toll of death. The Armenian popula-
ton is falling each week as hunger
takes Its toll, and in Greece, Albania
and Roumania so serious are the food
shortages that famine is near. Al
though starvation Is not yet imminent,
Italy, Switzerland, Bulgaria and Tur-
key are in the throes OF serious strin-
gencles.
In order to fulflll Americas pledge
in world relief we will have to export
every ton of food which can be han
died through our ports. This means at
the very least a minimum of 10000. 900
tons compared with 6,O00OOO tons pre-
war exports and l1.S20,0OO tons ex-
ported last year, when we were bound
by the ties of war to the European
allies.
