CERTAIN FUNDAMENTALS

There are certiD fundamentals in our
present order of civilization that
should be grasped in these days of in
dustrial disturbance.
If our modern civilization is to en-.
dure these things must be maintained:
Law and order, transportation and
schools.
Without these fundamentals civili-
zation can't function, and they must
be maintained at all hazards, and the
men and women who work in these in
dustries, the policemen, the firemen
and the railway men, and the school
teachers, are the people upon whom
rests the task to uphold these funda-
mentals of civilization.
If these people are so important to
society, then society should see that
they are given every advantage-that
they get a fair wage; that they get
even better than living wage; that
they get insurance against occasional
sickness and retirement pension for
their old age, If they have given their
lives to the profession or work so i'm
portant to society; that they should en-
joy their jobs on merit, and not at the
pleasure of factional politics or petty
bosses, whether political or Industrial.
In return, they should not have the
right to strike, for when they do they
do not strike against private interests,
but against the public welfare-against
society itself, and this society should
not allow
The government does not allow the
crew of ship to strike while the ship
is at sea and leave the ship, with its
passengers and cargo, at the mercy of
the winds and the waves,
Neither should those who maintain
public law and order: or transporta-
ton, the life blood of civilized commu-
mites; or schools, the cradle of Twill.
cation itself, be allowed to strike,
The right Of society to law and order,
to transportation, which means life in
the big cities, and to schools is far
greater than the industrial right OF
any workers in these lines, and this
right should be exercised by law.

The report circulated doubtless by

President of France never had any
right of being. Indeed it seems alb
surd in American eyes. While Presi-
dent Poincaire is possessed of many
brilliant and able qualities, neverthe-
less, Clemenceau towers above him so
far that there is no comparisons in the
two men possible. As on writer has
put it, Clemenceau, like the situation
in England, overtops the President of
France as Lloyd George does the Eng
lish King.
1t is to be hoped that the desire
of the old man will be gratified and
that he will yet see the Pyramids.
The aged statesman has had won
derful career and is outstanding
among the worlds really great men.
All of his life he has been busy, but
never more gloriously so than in the
war, where, whether in the trenches
inspiring the soldiers of all the Allies,
or in the Peace Council, he was the
same resolute man. holding an admir-
ing world at his feet because of his
vision and sense of justice and SUI
preme wisdom. Never popular with
a large opposing element in France,
he won over nearly all of his enemies
by his course throughout the war
period in which he was advanced to
the high position he held when the
war was at its most hazardous stage.
No spirit of the war did more to
uplift hope and encouragement than
loved his own people into affectionate
his own neODle into affCtiOnate en-
embrace, and brought the plaudits Of
the whole world to his side. He was
fortunate to survive the assassin's bull
let, and the hope is everywhere felt
that he will be spared many long years
yet to illumine the pages of history.
He deserves the rest he now desires.
When he gets his first glimpse of the
Pyramids he can look back at the ar
rogance of Bismarck and feel repaid
by the thought of the peace at
Versailles.
