the Englishman to the Frenchman,

piled, Il would be an Englishman.
What would you rather be if you
was not English?" "A Frenchman,"
replied the Briton.
Turning to Pat, they asked, "And

LABOR SURPLUS

With all our soldier boys returning
there is bound to be created a surplus
of labor. To meet this situation,
Secretary of Labor William B. Wilson,
suggests that all municipalities take
up at once the question of contemp-
lated improvements and make them,
so that all men seeking employment
can find it. How about our city Of
ficials getting busy on this at once.
Take up all contemplated improve
ments,pass the necessary legislation
so that when the weather permits we
can go right to it. Don't wait until
fall before thinking about it. And
our county commissioners too, they
should give this matter thought. If
there are any county improvements
contemplated they should be given
immediate consideration and arrang-
ed for so that the county can do its
share of taking care of the situation.
Don't wait, do it-DO IT NOW.

LET WAGES ALONE!

Here's a reconstruction thought:
Let Wages Alone!
Three prominent men in the nation
have. spoken. Two of them are high
government officials, the third a labor
captain.
Secretary of War Baker, at the
annual meeting of the National Con-
sumers' League, said:
"There must be no depressing of
wages.
1.-THE same high standard of living
maintained during the war must con-
tinue."
Secretary of Commerce Redfeld, at
the convention of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States, said:
Beware of the temptation hastily
to lay rash hands on laborl"
Samuel Gompers, at labor victory
celebration held in the Century Thea
ter in New York, said:
"The old quack medicine which the
old school of political economists al
ways prescribed for the body indus
trial whenever any grave question
arose, questions of Importance to
industry, commerce or finance, was
cut wages, cut wages, cut wages, as
remedy for industrial stagnation
Because there was such a small, COM
paratively small, avenue for the
of industry, wages must be cut as a
remedy, so that by this means the CON
suming power of the great masses of
the people should be reduced and the
stagnation actually be made all the
more acute"
We wonder whether these timely
warnings carry any meaning for the
Bourbons, the profteers, the exploi-
ters?
