After the war, when the choice is be-
tween taxburdened Germany and some
other power. there would seem to be lie
tie doubt but that the Saar regions will
prefer France, Scheswg will revert to
Denmark, and the East Prussian area
to Poland.

mark the complete losses Of Germany.

In connection with the accompanying

Of Germany, as indicated in the official
summary of the peace treaty and in the
subsequent official statement indicating
the boundary delimtations, the society
has issued a bulletin explaining the ex-

be done. roughly. by eliminating the PAN
handle and that western rectangle be-
yond the Rio Grande, which has Ell Paso
in the northwest corner. The result will
be an area approximately the size of the
continental German empire before the
armistice was signed.
From this area Germany loses out
right her ill-gotten Alsace- Lorraine,
parts Of Silesia, Posen, and West Prus-
STA, the Danzig area, Eupen and NAL
medy. This aggregate loss in territory
Is about equivalent to the area of the
State Of Maine.
But that is not all. In addition there
are areas in which a plebiscite is to be
taken. Their total extent is about equiv
alent to the area of the State Of New
Hampshire. They include the south
eastern third of East Prussia, part of
Schleswig, and the Saar valley Even
before the war 1t is likely that a pleb-
iscite would have found strong anti-Ger-
man support in each of these areas.

This average density was about 800 to
the square mile in 1914, and the total
number of square miles either lost out

future date approaches 1900 square

"Dan-ig has been a port of major i'm

Ever since the armistice Germany
has carried on an assiduous propaganda
to keep from losing her rich Posen and
Silesian mining districts. Zinc, iron and
potash, the very life blood of her vaunt-

ton, to seek the advice of those who have
remained in constant contact with do
nestle problems and who have known
them close at hand from day to day; and
1 trust that it will very soon be possible
for me to do so. But there are several
questions pressing for consideration to
which feel that l may and, indeed muse,
even now direct your attention, II only
in general terms. In speaking Of them
I shall, dare say be doing little more
than speak your own thoughts. l hope
that 1 shall speak your own judgment
also.
LABOR, THE BIG QUESTION
1.-THE question which stands at the
front Of all others in every country
amidst the present great awakening is
the question of labor; and perhaps can
speak OF 1t with as great advantage
while engrossed in the consideration of
interests which affect all countries alike
as I could at home and amidst the in
terests which naturally most affect my
thought. because they are the interests
of our own people.
by the questions of labor I do not
mean the question Of efficient Industrial
production, the question of how labor
is to be obtained and made effective In
the great process of sustaining popula-
tons and winning success amidst CONNER
cial and industrial rivalries. mean
that much greater and more vital thing.
How are the men and women who do the
daily labor OF the world to obtain pro-
gressive improvement in the conditions
Of their labor to be made happier, and
to be served better by the communi-
ties and the industries which their labor
sustains and advances? How are they
to be given their right advantage as
citizens and human beings?
MUST CEASE QUARRELING
I'VE cannot go any further in our
present direction. We have already
gone too far. We cannot live our right
life as a nation or achieve our proper
success as an industrial community II
capital and labor are to continue to be
antagonistic instead Of being partners;
II they are to continue to dstrust one
another and contrive how they can get
the better of one another or what per-
haps amounts to the same thing, calcu-
late by what form and degree Of coer-
cion they can manage to extort on the
one hand work enough to make enter
prise proftably, on the other justice and
TAR treatment enough 10 make lie toloT
able. That bad road has turned out a
blind alley. 1t Is no thoroughfare 10
real prosperity. We must find another,
leading in another direction and to a very
different destination. 1t must lead not
merely to a convention, but also to a
genuine cooperation and partnership
based on a real community of interest
! and participation in control,
This is now in fact real community
of interest between capital and labor
but It has never been made evident In
action. 1t can be made operative and
manifest only in new organization OF
industry. The genius of our business men

workers can certainly work such part

I actly what It Is that they seek and SIN
