A Prediction and
a Good Answer

Secretary Wilson OF the depart
ment of labor says:
THE present period of readjust-
ment is the critical time. If we can
pass through it safely, we have be-
fore us from eight to ten years of
industrial activity equal to any
wave of prosperity we ever have had.
But if there is any serious unemploy-
ment, there will be a period of in
dustrial unrest which may lead us
to a repetition of the French or the
Russian revolution"
Secretary Lane of the department
of the interior says:
II congress will appropriate the
relatively small sum which have
asked for the construction of
soldier-settlements in every state in
the Union, can offer jobs almost
Immediately to 100000 of our re-
turned fighting men, thus helping
to stem the tide Of industrial unrest
predicted by Secretary Wilson; pro
vide farm homes for $4,000 Of these
men, thus mitigating the evils ol
tenantry; and bring into cultivation
100000 acres Of at present unpro
ductive land, thus helping to make
up the deficiency in the growth ol
cultivated land as compared will
the rate Of growth of our population
There can be no surer insurance fol
the nation than to put its men upor
