Capitalists To
Oppose NewLaw
By CARL D. GRoAT.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
BERLIN, (By Mail.) = Germany's
capitalists are already laying their
plans to thwart the workmen when
the workers council law giving labor
a voice in Industrial management be-
comes effective.
AS drafted, the law gives workers
a right to examine the corporation
books at the end of each pear. Pre-
sumahiy such a right would I'm
mediately lead to demands for great
er participation in the company's
profits when these were high.
But the big corporations do not
propose to have their balances ap-
pear big at the end of the year.
Instead, they will show the work
men either "doctored" balances o,
will form sort of holding companies
whose business it will be 70 take the
parent corporations products at a
, comparatively low price and to ther
resell them at q normal rave. On the
books of the first corporation-the
books which the workmen of thy
councils will see-the company will
appear to have made a smaller pro.
fit than it did in reality.
That such plans are afoot was
quite openly admitted by one of tn,
nations prominent industrial leaders
and this statement was confirmed by
bther men in touch with industria
and legislative affairs. In ract, wher
steps we're under way to get the dem
Gratis to approve the booK-exam
ination portion Of the law, interested
! legislators merely told their dems
cratic colleagues that that they
needn't worry; the workers wouldn'
be able to make a case OUT Of any big
corporation books"
Part of this planned deception /.
for the benefit of foreign countries
Of course, in the first instance it i.
based on the desire Of the big IN
dustrials not to share their profit!
extensively with the laborers. Blu
/ in the second place-and this is b!
no means a minor consideration witt
the German industrial captafn-th,
promoter wants to impress Amerrc;
and other nations with the idea tina
this new system of labor's parti
cipation in management Of industr,
doesn't mean complete specialization
Americans who have viewed the Ger
man industrial situation and pondere,
particularly over the law have game
the impression that Germany wa
fast heading to the point where tn
worker would have, practically all tn
"say" and-all the profits.
The majority socialists-and anon,
them men identified with German
labor unions-believe in slow social
ization. And the Industrial captain
are seeing to it that-law or no law
they shall not have their grip on
things entirely wrested from thei
hands.

SHANGHAI, December 11-(By Mail
To United Press)-If Japan fails to
keep her promise to return Shantung
to China, Japan will be the sufferer,

An Extra Guest
For Christmas

Holly in the window, turkey in the
oven, presents weighing down the
glittering tree, Christmas cheer in the
air!
Can't you make room for one more
guest in your Christmas heart-es-
oecially if it happens to ne little
child whose eyes are Dig and lone
some, and whose litcie body looks as
if it had been hungry fer a good tong
time?
For pust 10 cents you can feed the
h.nery stomach Of .,lch 4 child IN
Christmas Da. For St.tr you can
ca for it for the whole of the Christ
mas month. And if you can dig down
in your Christmas pocketbook and pull
out $36.50 all in one lump, you can be
godparent to a little boy or girl for
a whole year, being put in touchwith
it through correspondence.
What kind of a child Well what
do you think about a little ten-year-
old boy who for three years worked
every day from sunup to sundown
saving up branches of trees for fuel ?
He must support one crippled feg
with huge stone while he worked.
One end of huge cross-cut saw was
pressed against his tiny chest the
other braced against the ground as
with outstretched arms he drew to-
ward him the branches which were to
make fuel and earn 40 cents a week
for himself and an old grandfather
Or how about little six-year-old
girl who when the Germans carried
away every boy baby from her town
was thrown to the pavement by a
burly German when she proved to be
a girl? She is permanently crippl-
ed. Her mother was taken away by
the Germans her father was killed
in the war.
These are just two of the 100000
French orphans of the war. They
are being taken care of now, but
thousands of others are without help
or friendship. All are fatherless,
many have lost their mothers, either
taken away by the Germans or dead
from exposure, privations, or in the
bombardments. The Fatherless Chill
dren Of France, an American organ
ization cooperating with similar
one in France, of which Marshal Jof-
fre is the head, is trying to furnish
American aid to the extent of ten
cents day per child to add to the tiny
| pension the French government has
been able to grant orphans of the war.
Every cent contributed for child
goes directly to it. Not one penny
is used either in this country or in
France for any other purpose the
expenses of the work are borne by
generous friends.
Can't you add one of these chill
dren to your Christmast list? Not on
ly the money but your friendship will
mean to such child a new belief in
the Providence of God, new love
and thankfulness, and will help to
wipeout the memories OF horror and
suffering and the unthinkable atroc
tiles which these children have wit
messed. sa&aSi
To become "godparent" to a child,
OF to make a Christmas donation,
write to Mrs. Walter S. Brewster,
Chairman of the Special Campaign
Committee Of this organization, who
will mail a booklet of translated let
ters from some of the children al
ready helped, to anyone who will

lope, of business size to her at Room
