that the operation has been success

Gods people face future in many
lands of greater hope. Convalescence

Of war means opportunity for labor
and the people who have fed and

lasting more than four years, will
find the coal, the food and the trans

able to repair and extend the ma

turn to pre-war conditions over

tine the Great decided that this city
should be his capital In preference to
Rome, and gave 1t the name of Con-
stantinople. 1t soon became the head
of Greek civilization. while Rome re-
manned the great center for the Latin
races. From 396 to l463 1t was the
capital Of Byzantine or the Eastern
Empire. The Patriarch of Constan-
tinople gradually rose to be the head
of the Christian church In tho East.
Owing to its position It was beseiged
in many wars and finally taken by the
Turks. Its great walls were ruined
although parts of them remain stand

sius the Great, who reigned In Con-
stantinople the latter part OF the
Fourth Century and stretched for

ing the economic conditions Of the
world. 1t is also true that great
part of the war expenditures has
been circulated among the peoples Of
the countries at war through higher
wages, and much of this has been
saved because it could not be spent.
Money would not buy additional food
and luxuries upon which it might
have been spent could not be secured
at any price.
The nations Of Europe are burden
ed with great national debts, but in
some countries the masses of the
people have a reserve buying power
which did not exist before the war.
There are, of course, many excep-
lions to this rule, but the people Of
England and France have more
money than formerly, even though
its buying power may not be as
great. We also sometimes forget
the fact that as wages are increased
in nation, the consuming power OF
that nation increases, for the in
creased wages quickly find their way
into circulation through the pur-
chase of added comforts and luxur-
les.
l recently read very gloomy de-
scription of the possible result of the
increased wages in England and the
probability Of England's inability to
compete in the export markets of
the world. / will not attempt to
argue this contention, for the result
depends so largely on conditions
which cannot be clearly foreseen at
the present time. I have great conf
dence in the sturdy common sense Of
the British people and the man who
prophesies that their own action will
be the means of cutting off their
markets is likely to be without honor
as a prophet in any country. II the
wages in England remain at a higher
level than before the war, as l am
sure every thinking man must be-
lieve they will, for it is undeniably
true, that English labor has been
desperately unpaid for generations,
the result of the higher wages will
be an increased demand among Brit
ish subjects for the products Of their
labor which will decrease the neces-
sity for an export market. This
wages in many Industries in Eng
land have advanced several pounds a
week. OF course all of the popula-
ton of the British Isles is not en-.
gagged in productive pursuits, but i
the average increase in wage should
amount to only $500 per week pei
head, for all Of the population Of
Evening capital news. (Boise, Idaho) 1901-1927, 1919-10-05

as, 900, 900 people who live in the
British Isles, there will still be an
increase in spending power OF $780,
900 200, 900 per week. l give these
figures merely a. an illustration. l
believe the wage increase will be
vastly more than this amount. Much
Of this will go in the higher cost of
food AMI living necessities, but if the
labor of England is made more pros
porous, they will consume great
quantities Of manufactured articles
which have heretofore been forced
to find a market in foreign lands,
because the labor of England was so
poorly paid as to be unable to buy,
in SO large a measure as should be
the case, the products of their own
workshops. One of the reasons for
the great buying power of the Amer
lean people has been the fact that
our labor has been paid sufficient
wages to enable it to purchase more
than the necessities of life. AS an
illustration, l am told that one per-
son in five in America owns an
automobile, and in England one per-
son in five hundred. AS basis for
deductions this argument cannot of
course be maintained, for during the
last five years the people of America
have been increasing the number of
their motor cars enormously, while
Great Britain has been without
power to manufacture or import
motor cars, and with strict regula-
ton of gasoline. The fact remains,
however, that prosperous and we'll
paid people will consume much
greater percentage of the products OF
their own factories than people
working for low wages.
Nearly all of the observations
which l have made are generalities
and do not apply to all of the ma
lions Of Europe, for the psychology
of each is different. If one thinks oil
the economic structure of France
the first thought is of the thrift o.
the French people. The care will

is behind us. We know the worst
and for the first time in five years
the world can begin to make its
plans without reckoning with war.
There will be labor difficulties and
capital will have troubles OF its own.
Reform will be discussed on all sides
and we all know that there were
many conditions before the war
which were sadly in need Of reform.
Out of It all, progress is being made
every day. It is difficult to recognize
it day by day, but as we look back it
will loom large. Labor needs few
headaches to understand capital, and
capital a few backaches to under
stand labor, while reform needs to
get its hair cut to understand either:
Out of it all better civilization and
a better understanding among the
people of the world will come. The
