Even a cusory glance at the regis

Capitalists View of Labor Issue

thinks they are not greater than
other difficulties which have been
successfully overcome.
''In many cases." he said, "the di-
vision of a real profit would be so
small rs to be considered as nothing.
/ know a corporation that stands high
in the list of successful concerns in
this country which pays 10 per cent on
its capital invested. | do not mean
upon it's capital stock. That would be
only about a third of the capital in
Evcsted. Now, allowing 6 per cent in
terest as a reasonable income for that
capital, put aside a reasonable profit
from the remaining per cent of in
come and in this particular case the
cmpoye would only get about $40,
and that would be nothing. Yet the
corporation which have in mind is
ranked with the most successful.
"The proft-sharing plan involves a
whole lot Of differential calculus. II
would work satisfactorily for both
sides in very few cases, as matters
stand today, but conditions can be
changed in whatever trade to make it
desirable for the laborer to share in
the profits, or the savings in cost Of
production, | think.
"When one follows out these pro-
posals for industrial reforms one is
forced to see how ignorant we are in
America. That is why the Washing
ton conference will be like opening a
national school upon labor, and that is
why it is going to be long-drawn
session. Out of the discussions that
are going to be had there we may, in
time, arrive at a practicable plan for
representation of laborers in making !
conditions of work and sharing in the
profits of industry; of increasing eff
ficiency; of procuring continuity of |
and of preventing indus
trial disputes; but think we who have |
been summoned by the President |
should acknowledge our ignorance and
look first to the educational advantage
es before we attempt to either recon-
cile or block the present tendencies Of
our industrial life.
'ln the heydey Of prosperity we
Americans have never had any irk-
some schooling in these labor prob
lens. | predict that it will be a good
long time before any conclusions shall
be reached"

WHY RURAL PRESS is POWER

The average man can live in a big
city all his life and never see his name
in the paper, but the farmer and the
average man and woman in any small
town will see their names in their To-
cal country newspaper at least ten
times year, and always connected
with some worthy cause, some faith
full service, something that brings joy
all through life. The country news
paper is the paper that spreads hap
piness and content.
Don't you always want to read about
the ball game you saw the day before?
If you witness fire you read the de-
tails of that fire with double interest.
If you hadn't seen the blaze perhaps
you would not read the story at all.
Why is this? asks the Oelwein Ua.)
lowan. 1t is because the things you
know about are the things you like to
read about. That is why country
newspapers have such a tremendous
hold on their readers. They tell them
about the comings and goings of their
friends and neighbors, the people they
know. Nothing on earth is as inter-
esting to the farmers and people liv-
ing in the town as the news of their
babies, the marriage of their boys and
girls, their social and church events.
the illness and the deaths among their
friends. Year after year the country
newspaper records the history of its
community.
Is it any wonder the country news
paper is the most powerful advertis-
ing medium on earth? Just as it's
power is great in holding it's readers
interest, so is it helpful in shaping
thought and powerful as an advertis-
ing medium. 1t turns the printed
word almost into the spoken word.
No metropolitan daily, no magazine
no billboard, no farm journal--good
as they all are--.rings the bell with
farmers and small town people as does
their home newspaper. 1t is an inte-
gral part of the community that can
not be filled by any other medium.

EXPORTS AND IMPORTS

Record-breaking exports in the
month of June, as we'll as in the fiscal
year ending with that month are
shown In statement issued by the
Bureau Of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce of the Department of Com
merce.
Exports in June amounted to S918,-
100000 against S484 100000 in June a
year ago and $6O6,OOO,OOO in May of
this year. This exceeds by more than
$200,0O0,00O the previous high record
in April of this year. During the fis-
cal year 1919 the exports amounted to
$7,225, 100000 against $500, 900, 900
in the fiscal year 1918. This is more
than three times the exports in the
fiscal year 1914, the last year before
the war, when they amounted to $2,-
365,O00,O0O. About $5,000,000,OOo of
these exports have been sent out since
the signing of the armistice in No
vember last. The excess of exports
over imports is $4,129,000,000 in this
year against less than $3,000,000 a
year ago and less than $500, 100000 in
1914.
Imports during June amounted to
S293,OOO, goo, an increase over June a
year ago when imports amounted TO
$260,000,000, but considerably less
than the amount in May of this year
of 1929, 100000. Imports were valued
at $329, 100000, against $2,946,0OO,-
900 in 1918, an increase of $150,000,-
600.
The removal of wartime restric-
tions caused decided increase in the
exports of gold from less than $2,-
100000 in the last two previous
months to $83,000000 in June. Ex-
ports of gold during the fiscal year
1919 amounted to $117,000,O 900
against $191 100000 year ago. Ex-
ports of silver show decided de-
crease, from $29,000,000 in May to
$13,000,000 in June. During the fis-
cal year 1919 silver exports amounted
to 1901 100000 against $139,00O,O00
in 1918.
During the past three years the
United States has exported an excess
of merchandise over imports totaling
in value approximately nine thousand
million dollars.
