the mass of workmen, but also bring
about greater production and u
greater prosperity to business itself.
Many Demands Are just
To analyze the particulars in the
demands of labor is to admit the JUS
tice of their complaint in many mat
ters that lie ut their bases. The
workmen demands an adequate wage,
sufficient to permit him to live in
comfort, unhampered by the fear of
poverty and want in his old age.
He demands the right to live and
the right to work amidst sanitary
surroundings. both in home and in
workshop. surroundings that develop
and do not retard his own health and
well being; and the right to provide
for his children's wants in the mat
ter of health and education.
In other words, il is his desire to
make the conditions of his life and
the lives of those dear TO him toll
cradle and easy to bear.
Way to Industrial Peace
The establishment of the principles
regarding labor laid down in the cove
nant of the league of nations offers us
the way TO industrial peace and con-
ciiiatiOn. No other road lies OpeT to
us. Not to pursue this one is longer
to invite rnmities, bitterness, and an
tagonisms which in the end only
lead to industrial and social disaster.
The unwilling workman is not a
profitable servant. An employe
whose industrial life is hedged about
by hard and unjust conditions, which
he did not create and over which he
has no control, lacks that fine spirit
of enthusiasm and volunteer effort
which are the necessary ingredients
of great producing entity. Let us
be frank about this solemn matter.
The evidences of world wide unrest
which manifest themselves in violence
throughout the world bid us pause and
consider the means to be found to stop
the spread of this contagious thing
before it saps the very vitality of the
nation itself.
Do we gain strength by withhold
ing the remedy? 0Szis it not the bus
ihess of statesmen to treat these man
iiestations of unrest which meet us
on every hand as evidences of an
economic disorder and to apply con-
structlve remedies wherever neces-
Sary, being sure that in the applica-
tion of the remedy we touch not the
vital tissues of our industrial and
economic life? There can be no re-
cessior of line tide of unrest until
constructive instrumentalities are set
M to stem that tide.
Right to Bargain Collectively
Governments must recognize the
right of men collectively to bargain
for humane objects that have at their
base the mutual protection and well
fare of those engaged in all indus
tries. Labor must not be longer treat
ed as a commodity. 1t must be re-
garded as the activity of human be.
ings, possessed of deep yearnings and
desires. The business man gives his
best thought to the repair and re-
plenishment of his machinery so that
its usefulness will not be impaired

be at its height and kept in full vigor
ana motion. No less regard ought to
De paid to the human machine
which, nfter all, propels the ma
chinery of the world and is the great
dynamic force that lies back of all in
dustry and progress.
Return to the old standards of wage
and industry in employment is un-
thinkable. The terrible tragedy of
war which has just ended and which
has brought the world to the verge of
chaos and disaster would be in vain
II there should ensue return to the
conditions of the past. Europe itself,
whence has come the unrest which
now holds the world at bay, is an
example of standpatism in these vital
humane matters which America might
well accept as an example, not to
be followed but studiously to be
avoided. Europe made labor the diff
ferential and the price of it all is en-
nifty and antagomism and prostrated
industry. The right OF labor to live
in peace and comfort must be rccog-
nized by governments and America
should be the first to lay the founda-
tion stones upon which industrial
peace shall be built.
Justice TO Both Sides
Labor not only is entitled to an
adequate wage, but capital should re-
ceive Il reasonable return upon its in
vestment and is entitled to protection
at the hands of the government in
every emergency. No government
worthy of the name can "play" these
elements against each other, for there
Is a mutually of interest between
them which the government must
seek TO express and TO safeguard at
all cost.
Right to Strike Invi0late
The right of individuals to strike
is inviolate and ought not to be in
terfered with by any process of gov
ernment, but there is a predominant
right, and that is the right of the
government to protect all of its peo-
pie and to assert its power and mai
eSty against the challenge of any
class. The government, when it as
serts that right, seeks not to an
tagonize n class, but simply to de-
tend the right of the whole people
as. against the irreparable harm and
INJURY that might be done by the at
tempt by any class to usurp a power
tnat only government itself has a
to all.
In the matter of international dis
putes which have led to war. states
men have sought to set up as n
remedy arbitration for war.
Way TO Settlement

settlement of industrial disputes. by

five years led to war and disaster?
America, witnessing the evil conse-
quences which have followed out of
such disputes between the contending
forces, must not admit itself i'm
potent to deal with these matters by
means of peaceful processes. Surely,
there must be some method of bring
ing together in council of peace and

Certainly human intelligence can de-
wise some acceptable tribunal for nd-
justing the differences between capi.
tai and labor.
Americas Hour Of Test
This is the hour of test and trial
for America. BY her prowess and
strength and the indomitable courage
of her soldiers she demonstrated her
power to vindicate on foreign battle
fields her conception of liberty and
justice. Let not her influence as a
mediator between capital and labor
be weakened and her own failure
to settle matters of purely domestic
concern he proclaimed to the world.
There are those in this country
who threaten direct action to force
their will upon a majority. Russia
today, with its blood and terror, is
a painful object lesson of the power
of minorities. 1t makes little differ
ence what minority is; whether capi-
tai or labor. or any other class no
sort of privilege will ever be per-
mitted to dominate this country. We
are partnership or nothing that is
worth while. We are a democracy,
where the majority are the masters,
or all the hopes and purposes of the
men who founded this government
have been defeated and forgotten.
In America there is but one way
by which great reforms can be ac-
complished and the relief sought by
classes obtained, and that is through
the orderly processes of representative

government. Those who would pro-
pose any other method Of reform are
enemies of this country. America
will not bo daUnted by threats nor
lose her cOmpOsure or caImness In
these distressing times. We can af-
ford. in the midst Of this day Of
passion and unrest, to be self t-con
tanned and sure.
The instrument of all reform in
America is the straight road of JUS
tice to all classes and conditions Of
men. Men have but to follow this
road to realize the full fruition Of
their objects and purposes. Let those
beware who would take the shorter
road OF disorder and revolution. The
right road is the road Of justice and
orderly process.

and then delivered heavy TRADE
against the prevailing short skirts and
silk stockings.
Several of the young girls were rath-
er indignant and avoided the minister
for a time. But one day as he was
coming home from shopping for his
wife he met two who at first were
rather cold, but as the conversation
progressed became distinctly amused
and finally departed giggling. The
younger one fired this final retort !:
I'm glad you changed your mind on
some things, Reverend T."
The minister wondered on that last
speech all the way home. Then he re-
peated it to his wife. She looked at
him closely and then burst out laugh
ing. "NO WONDER she exclaimed, and
held up for him to see the magazine
he was carrying.
Some way, in packing his bundles to-

been an advertisement of very fancy

A well-known st. Louis society wom-
an has some very interesting and in
teIligent grandchildren, and this is the
story she tells upon herself. Her little
grandson, looking $Izzled, said to her !:
GRANDMOTHER, how does it come that
your name is Brown and fathers name
IS Smith, when you are his mother?"
These are, of course, not the names,
but they will do for the story.

"And where is Mr.. BrownY asked

'He is dead, too" said grandmother.
'Then what will be the name Of the
next man you will marry?"
"Well, | couldn't say right off," said
grandmother. "I'll have to think about
that"
