LABOR PROBLEM
I DISCUSSED BY
F. H. AMBROSE
New Freedom" Will Bring
ALI Wages and No Work,
Says Pastor.

Rev. F. Kelsey Ambrose painted
anything but an optimistic picture Of
the labor situation in the United States
and declared that the enactment and
enforcement Of prohibition laws was
in a measure responsible for the pres
ent labor unrest, in his sermon,
"Watchman What of the Night de-
lfvered at the First Presbyterian
church Sunday morning. s,
s Mr.. Ambrose, who a just returned
from an extensive eastern trip, where
he studied actions and sentiment of
labor in that section as we'll as in the
northwest stated that q throng intox-
icated with the New Freedom" is far
worse than a like throng could be il
intoxicated with the most powerful
OF liquor.
ssNew Freedom"
The New Freedom" talked Of by
labor in. the eas IS nothing more
than seizing what another has pro-
duced and getting away with it," C
that in~the east speeches that are I'M
American and un-Christian are re-
eeived with great favor and cheers by
the laboring classes.
The tide Of unrest and revolt of Ia
Dor 10 at our doors. according to Rev.
Ambrose. and his must be stopped,
he declares.
In developing hts topic. Mr.. Am
brose said that there is hardly al in
dustrial city Of the east that is not
suffering from labor unrest, revolt
and disorder and that in many sec
tions bloodshed has resulted from the
situation. In support of this state
rnent he cited instances of several
strikes and revolts such as in Buffalo
and Pennsylvania.
The strikes for six-hour days with
ten-hours' pay and the ever increas-
ing cry of labor for shorter hours and
more and o pay is gaining in
strength every day and the result will
be materially increased prices for
goods e fall, says the pastor.
He continued with the statement
that the .laboring man, weary of toll.
has lost his love for labor and tina
industry and righteous endeavor is
lacking.
Labor and Prohibition.
That the prohibition situation has
had more to do with the present labor
situation than anything else, is the
statement Of Rev. Ambrose, who said
that when one of the last rights Of
doing as he chooses is taken from the
laboring man. he revolts.
Mr.. Ambrose said that he would not
make the statement that prohibition
was the sole cause of so much unrest
and trouble with labor. cut that pro-
hfbition was one of the many things
that added breeze to the flame of un-
rest and revolt.
Rev. Ambrose said that before he
started on his trip through the east
he was an optimist, but thai he has
returned to Grand Forks a. pessimist
with much food for thought on the
labor problems.

WHAT Is LABOR?

lNnarter OAK IlmeS,l
The war council in Paris may de-
| clare that labor is not a commodity,
! and the world may ratify the state
ment: but calling a spade a club
does not make club OF IL.
Labor is a commodity and can be
nothing else.
II IL Is not commodity, then what
is the need of collective bargaining .
So is capital commodity.
And the failure to recognize these
two facts is doing the damage today,
To declare labor and capital not COM
modities is not the way 10 solve the
problem.
To recognize them as commodities
and inquire into the best method OF
handling them will start the readjust-
ment that both labor and capital are
asking for.
The same mistake is being made
with this that was made for many
years with the prohibition question and
the suffrage question. You cannot UP
a tree over by pushing on the trunk.
You have to strike at the roots.
Furthermore, what difference does 1t
make whether labor is or is not com
modify ? That means nothing,
What labor wants is just treat
ment, and the matter of whether II is
a commodity or a condition or prin-
Ciple is not in mind.
An incident OF our young manhood Is
patent. A neighbours calf had fallen in
TO the cistern. The man asked how II
GOT there hut the woman said: 1T
makes no difference how it got In: get
II out
That is the idea. II makes no differ
ence what labor is or how it got there.

MADE IN GERMANY"

Trade has been opened between Ger
many and the United States, We shall
operate over lines between this coun-
try and German ports exporting our
goods to Germany. The Germans need
cotton, copper, foodstuffs. clothing and
other articles badly and We will supply
them.
OF course if We are TO sell TO Ger
many our markets will be open to
German goods with certain restriC-
tons. Just what reception German
manufactures will meet with here is
not assured II IS certain that a strong
prejudice exists against anything
made in Germany" How long that
will last and how far it will extend is
not TO be stated with certainty.
However, it Is certain that the con-
sumner usually asks the price and not
the place OF manufacture when she
goes shopping. German made goods
will not bear the label once SO com
mon made in Germany" while that
country is striving TO re-establish its
commerce. And price has more to do
with trade than prejudice in the long
run.
If Germany is to pay indemnities
Germany must produce and sell her
productions. Somebody must buy
them. 1t is likely that both France and
England will buy of Germany not by
preference but TO collect the debt due
them.
But for many years a serious dis
taste toward Germany and German
manufactures will exist in the United
States. Sooner or later of course the
ordinary relations of trade will exist
| between this country and Germany,
sooner than we are likely to believe;
for it is historical, proverbial and hui
manly natural that We buy in the
cheapest market and that price with
reasonable quality appeal in business
and the mutually Of trade and trade
advantage is healer of national
wounds. 81.
Nevertehless there are many Of us
who will sidestep German goods for a
| long, long time-when We know that
they are made in Germany"
