UNITED STATES LOOKS AHEAD TO Big
REHABILITATION PROBLEM AFTER WAR
President Wilson Thru National Defense Council Starts
chnery Necessary for Industrial Course n
Peace Comes; Will Have Purely American
of

America is to be prepared scien-
tifcally to meet the after-war prob
lens, whether they confront the coun-
try within a year or twenty years.
President Wilson has started a survey
which will give the nation the basis
for such preparedness, says a WASH
ington dispatch to the New York
World.
Active direction and correlation of
this work has been undertaken by the
council Of national defense and the
advisory commission. Walter S. Gif-
ford. director of both bodies, and Gros-
venor b. Clarkson, their secretary,
have laid out the preliminaries, and
the organizations are already under
way.
Ultimately every important econom-
ic and industrial authority will be
drawn into the work. If any plans
developed in the course of the inves-
tigation fit into the war program they
will be turned to that use, for the
vigorous prosecution Of the war is
part Of every governmental activity
today.
What the Council Is Doing.
The greatest task confronting the
United States next to winning the war
is that commonly called "reconstruc-
tion." The term is n misnomer when
applied to our situation, which will
be more one of readjustment and re-
conversion of American industry and
economic life to peace basis.
In its research work the council is
examining the postwar plans of other
belligerent countries. These do not
form an infallible index to our own
complicated situation. The problem
of each of the belligerent countries
is peculiar to itself. The data touch
is being gathered and studied, so that
the United States will know exactly
what other countries propose doing in
this respect, but no European pattern
will be selected for our own model.
The American problem, according
to an outline made by the council Of
national defense, will include:
/. Demobilization of the army and
navy and reabsorption of industrial
war workers into peace industries.
2. Industrial readjustment to peace
conditions. The phases that will come
under this head are: (a) Conversion
of war industries to peace needs; (b)
restoration of industries curtailed by
war, such as, for example, the build
ing trades; (c) sale Of government
property (d) cooperation and regu-
lation versus competition; (e) trade
organization.
8. Industrial relations, labor and
capital.
4. Foreign and trade problems.
s. Tariff.
8. Industrial and scientific re-
search.
z. Fuel.
8. Merchant marine.
0. Railroads.

Organized labor in Pueblo own and
operate the only Labor Temple in
Colorado owned by the unions and
members thereof. The wisdom Of this
action has been adequately demon
strated not only as a central meeting
place for all unions, but as a paying
investment
In the year 1916 the agitation for a
Labor Temple for the organized work
ers of Pueblo was started. A commit
tee was appointed by the Trades and
Labor Assembly, and that committee
Immediately began looking around for
a suitable building or building site for
the same. There was submitted for
the consideration of that body the
Board of Trade building at the south
east corner of North Union avenue
and Richmond street, for $4,000 on
easy payments.
In October, 1916, the Pueblo Labor
Temple Association filed articles of in
corporation, with John ]. fisherman,
Cigarmakers Union; Pine Howell, Car
penters Union, and w. II. Young,
Printing Pressmen's Union, as incor-
porators. The capital stock was
placed at $4,000, 5000 shares at a
par value of $40 each.

COPPER MINERS GET MORE PAY.

At meeting of joint committee
representing employers of the Old Do
minion, Inspiration Consolidated and
Mutual Copper companies, held at
Miami, Ariz., Federal Labor Admin
istrator Joseph F. Myers announced
that a wage increase of 25 cents per
day, effective August 1, had been
granted employees of copper compan-
les of the Globe Miami district. In
announcing the advance in wages, Mr..
Myers stated that the raise granted
copper employees of so cents per day,
which went into effect July last, was
approved and that further increase
of 25 cents per day, effective August
/, was granted to every employe
working on a per diem rate.

MUCH ALIEN PROPERTY SEIZED.

The money and property which has
been taken over by A. Mitchell Palmer,
enemy property custodian, has passed
the $500, 900 mark, it was an
nounced in New York this week.
All cash taken over is sent to the
treasury to be invested in Liberty
bonds, and whenever possible the
enemy property is converted into cash
which is similarly invested. On July
81 Mr.. Palmer had purchased S42, ,970,-
OPT worth of the bonds, and S2,S07,-
905 more was available at the treas
ury for investment in the coming
loan.

The building occupies a ground
space of 70x120 feet, in the center of
the business district, is of red sand
stone, four stories and basement. The
original cost of construction was $780,
600. The ground is valued at $4,000.
1t is equipped with an elevator, cleo
trio lights and a complete heating
plant, which also supplies hot water
for the bath rooms on the fourth floor.
The first floor is occupied by business
firms; the second and third floors by
the halls and Office rooms; the fourth
floor as Office rooms and apartments.
None but card men and women can
own stock in the association and no
individual can purchase more than
fifty shares; no central body can own
more than $50 shares. By this ar
rangement control of stock cannot be
centralized and taken out of the hands
of the organization
The Pueblo Labor Temple is mon
ument to the labor organizations of
Pueblo, and especial credit is due the
few who worked SO hard and persist
emily for its success.
Up to date little more than s15,-
900 has been raised from all sources.
During the past year the revenue
from the building has paid hand
some profit.

To Restore Peace Footing.
The placing of the army and navy
on a peace footing and the reabsorp-
ton of war workers into peace indus
tries involves a study of possible ma
tional projects, such as food control,
water power development, national
highways and public works. An am
bilious program along these lines could
be undertaken with view to provid-
ing the necessary employment for la
Dor pending its resumption of normal
lines of activity.
In the work of turning the plow-
share into the sword the government
has organized a staff of factory con-
version experts under the war indus
tries board, and these same men, rep
resenting the keenest industrial minds
of the country, will help convert the
war plants back to a peace footing.
War has disclosed the need for more
widespread technical and vocational
training and methods of inducing such
development on n big scale will be
devised.
Means of completely assimilating
and Americanizing our vast foreign
born population will be considered.
The experiences of the United States
in dealing with aliens since the in
ception of the war will likely be
capitalized.
The executive departments of the
government are already making in
quiries along the lines which fall with
in the sphere of each. The labor de-
partment is formulating plans for
continuing after the war the spirit
of understanding and cooperation
which has marked the relations be-
tween employer and the employed dur
ing the war.
The interior department is work
ing on plans to provide homestead
lands for returned soldiers.
Problem of Raw Material.
The state department, thru its for
eign trade advisors, is giving consid-
GRAFTON to after the war trade condi-
tions. The commerce department is
giving attention to problems that will
come within its purview. These prob
lens are being studied under the bu-
reau of foreign and domestic COM
merce.
The question of raw materials will
loom large. America has invaluable
.hHnerM uepoSiVS, Soile oI which nave
been better developed since the war
has cut off the importation of many
articles, but vast quantity Of which
are yet untouched. The supply of
raw materials must be allocated in
such way as to benefit national in
dustry hest. Data from German
sources to which the council Of ma
tional defense has had access, show
that Germany is greatly disturbed as
Germany has possibly given more
consideration to reconstruction prob

lens than any of the belligerent gov
ernments. This is partly because of
the we'll grounded fear that an eco
nomic boycott will be enforced by her
enemies.
The council of national defense,
which mobilized American industry
for war, is peculiarly fitted for the
work of assembling and correlating
the information which is to guide in
tentative program will be distinctly
American.
