NEW YORK. oct. 3.-wllllam NJ,

Second \ desire on the part OF labor
10 take advantage of the scarcity Of the

return for services rendered as can
possibly be obtained.
Third-A lack Of personal response
hiliiy among large number Of i'm
provident wage carncrs. This class OF
people. owning virtually no property.
Is consequently without regard FOR
property rights.
Fourlh-A lack of knowledge of The
fundamental principles Of economies.
This is responsible for lahOr's willing

Flflh-Labor's desire for voice In

of interest between employer and em-
ploye.
seventh. There is large number Of
unprlncipled, selfish labor
leaders. who. IN order TO promote their
own ends. keep tho workers In a state
OF constant unrest.
Mr.. Wood says "The American
Woolen Company has recognized the
first desire as well grounded. and ac-
cordly We have advanced wages an
average of 100 per cent, since The be-
ginning Of the war The other condi-
