acil control, and not until then.
Every progressive step taken in
tho history Of Minnesota, the United
States and tho world has originated
among producing classes. Progress
never emanated from those opposed to
the interests Of labor. Why then
should this class be permitted to con-
troll government?
ANY observer. of world affairs can
see two movements now in progress:
First, labor will: get a larger share
Of what It produces and those who
live through their power to capitalize
the product Of labor will get smaller
share.
Second, labor will have greater
voice in the management Of industry
and in the dictation Of working con-
ditions. .
Sentiment overwhelmingly favors
both these reforms. No argument has
yet been given against the justice or
fairness of either. Favorable sentt-
ment, though, can only become effec-
tive through organized expression and
that expression will never become
fact until labor emphasizes 1t through
political action.
Labor today is intensely interested
in reducing the high cost Of living.
Old-guard political organizations are
doing a lot Of canouflaged talking
about cutting down prices, hut still no
prices go down. If labor held and
controlled public offices there would
be neither waiting for nor a question
about reduction of living costs.
Every 1aboring man knows that
when his wages are increased the bills
he has to meet are boosted so as to
require more than the increase he re-
ceived to pay them. That is simply an
old-guard trick and it will continue to
be worked at the expense Of labor
until old-guarders are thrown out Of
office and the people themselves: al
/ lowed to rule. ::..-: ..-,.
High prices are attributed by prof.
iteers to an oversupply Of gold, in
flation Of the currency, laws Of supply
and demand and various other alb
struse principles Of economies. The
profiteers find that these principles
work according to the amount Of
money in, circulation. They point out
that when there is an So per capita
circulation prices are low; when there
is a $54 per capita. prices are high.
Economic principles always are to
blame because labor has nothing left,
no matter what it's wage. after living
expenses are paid.
Labor knows, and anybody inter-
ested in finding it out knows, that
talk about economic principles is all
buncombe. Prices are high or low be-

WHYLABOR SHOULD
ENTER POLITICS

the power can be exercised for the
welfare Of all the people. This trans
fer will come when labor wins polit-
acil control, and not until then.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1919-08-30

Labor. organized and unorganized,
constitutes IS per cent of the popula-
ton Of Minnesota and the United
States. On the basis Of population
labor is entitled to practically all pub
lie offices.
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1919-08-30

The square deal principle says that
every man and woman shall share
equitably in the product Of their toll.
When there is such an apportionment,
wages will be high and prices low.
Anybody knows there is enough
money. in America So no person needs
to be. In want. The trouble is that
the money is not; equitably distributed.
Economic principles say that what
ever labor produces someone else shall
have and dispose OF at his own price.
The principles say that when wages
are high prices shall be still higher
so that no laboring man shall profit
by reason Of his efforts. The idea of
economics as interpreted by old-line
ruling politicians and their. financial
hackers is that the bulk Of the accum-
ulattons Of the IS per cent producing
class shall be usurped by the per
cent profiteering class.
Political action by labor means that
tho square deal principle will rule.
Political action by the profiteers has
meant. and will continue to mean, that
their. self interpreted. and enforced
economic principles will rule.
There is no hope for an ameliora-
ton Of conditions under the present
system of, governmental control. The
system must be changed. This does
not mean change in the form of gov
eminent. It means that the true prin-
ciples of democracy shall rule under
the government as now formed rand
not the stultified principles Of gougers
which have ruled.
The change in the system will come
| when the people realize the advantage
of running their own government.
The fact that this advantage is being
appreciated is seen in the entry Of
labor into politics.
The profiteers have long known of
the; advantage in political control.
They have got everything there was
to get because they organized and
jock-eyed themselves into position for
a grand grab-all act.
The profiteers did this with only

fixed so the profiteers will get oil Of

FEEDING VALUE OF SOY BEAN
Seed Contains From 80 to 46 Per Cent
Protein and Compares FavorabIy
With Other Feeds.

prepared by the United States DEPART
ment OF Agriculture)
- The feeding value of soy-bean seed,
which contains from 80 to 40 per cent
protein, is very high and compares
favorably with other concentrated
feeds. The growing Of soy-bean seed
will enable the farmer to produce at a
moderate cost ut least part of the
high-protein concentrates necessary for
stock feeding and milk production.
Vhen fed to sheep and hogs the beans
cun be fed whole, but In general 1t is
preferable to crack or grind them.
Practical experience has shown that
It Is necessary to mix the beans with
corn or peas first and then grind to-
gether into meal. Owing to the high
content Of protein. soy-bean seed
should always be fed in mixture with
q less concentrated feed.
