THE CRIME OF CONFINEMENT

10 see amid the fatory's sullen roar
Small children shaving at some huge
machine;
Their little bodies stunted, pinched
and lean,
That profiteers may stuff their gold
en- store.
| To look upon this awful tragedy,
or childhood that is daily being
staged,
Where cries Of anguish seldom are
assuagcd,
While profits yield to pity grudgingly.
TO close the eyes to this grim social
That saps and enervates the human
race;
no lack the moral stamina to face
! The cause of it and then to find the
cure;
On those let this anathema be vented:
Damned be. he who sees, yet is con-
tented.

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE

When baking a pastry shell for a
cream, custard or lemon pie. invert
the pie tin and bake the crust on the
bottom. Such shell keeps its shape
better.
If using sweet cream and it has

sweet
If turnips are strong, change the
water once while boiling and season
them with cream instead of butter
When you have added too much
soda to mixture, add a teaspoonfu|
Of vinegar to counteract it.
Crust in teakettles can be prevented
by keeping = clam or oyster shell in

 ARIZONA MERCHANTS

i DOUGLAS, Ariz.-Passport regu- lations of the United States. which
 prevent hundreds of Mexicans in Sonora from crossing to this side Of the international line to do their
 trading. have caused considerable complaint among the merchants of Arizona border towns who have heretofore reaped a harvest from Mexican patronage.
 The Mexican shoppers often pre- scented some peculiar contrasts. For merly many Mexican families, their
 nakedness barely covered by the rags they wore, but with thousands of dollars in their purses, crossed the border for their annual buying trip.
 After a day or two they would .recross to the Mexican side, mem
 bers of the family wearing as much .of their clothing purchases as pos
 sible in order to escape Mexican
 import duties Sometimes a man
 would be seen wearing several suits .of clothing, with four or five hats,
 one upon the other, on his head Such sights, once common, are rare
 ly observed now.

LABOR AND OUTPUT

The present disposition of labo. organizations to seek relief from the high cost of living through wage increases rather than through iu- creased production leads the Ma tional Foreign Trade Council to view with concern the future of our foreign trade in all parts of the world. The experience of Great Britain during the last fifty years offers an example of 9 similar un- sound economic policy the fruits of which are now becoming apparent. It has been the belief of English labor that the greater the restric- ton of output. the greater the mum Der Of men to be employed, and therefore the greater prosperity for all. Tn reality. restricted Produc- ton has resulted in profits so small as to leave no room for wage in- creases. The net result has been underpaid labor and poor working conditions. h the main, this course has been unopposed by the British government. Instead of hitting at the root of the evil and eliminating restrictions on output, the policy has been to palliate social unrest with unemployment and old-age pen sions. The government has there bv countenanced an economic situ- ation in which increased wages, if granted. would lead to no greater rroduccion and would render the British manufacturer unable to com pete with other nations in foreign trade. Therefore the wage increase never came, and England drew for herself red-inE overhaul on the future.
 ExceptionaI war conditions upset all customs, resulted in huge wage increases. but affected only slightly the old ideas about restriction of output. So England now finds her self in the difficult position Of try ing to sell goods abroad in compe- tition with foreign nations Cand her whole industrial future. depends or her success in the effortl, when the labor costs of production have been enormously increased with but little compensating increase in output. To add to her difficulties, the payment of recent unemployment doles' has served only to make the state of unemployment attractive rather than otherwise, and has seriously weak ened the Twill to work" of the in dusrial population.
 If the foreign markets of the world in many lines of goods are not to be lost to the United States in the future, two things are obvi- ous: (l) Increased production is. a condition precedent to all increases of pay and decreases of working time; (2) the policy of our Gov ernment must be modelled more along lines which keep maximum production in view than on any sys- tenn of benefits tending to make labor less self-dependent, or on any theory of decreased hours of work designed fallaciously to provide worl; for more people, but in reality re sulting in more pay for the same number of workers.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS


 generally which 1t must live up to, and that the staff correspondents' helped us out nobly on the occasion of the Presidents visit to our terri ble city, says the Seattle Post-In- telligencer. To get the req! news of that visit one must read the New York Post. ardent supporter of Pres ident Wilson; the New York Sun. equally ardent in its opposition to President Wilson. and every one of the score of newspapers that had staff correspondents along with the presidential party.
 The hallucinations of the staff correspondents are bad enough, but when the editorial writers contribute their wisdom, from facts gleaned from the stories of the staff cor respondents, then, gentle reader, one must weep and laugh. Finally there comes the marvellous flood of in vective, denunciation, anger, an guish, sorrow, despair. as the pen sioners writing editorials on the smaller newspapers rewrite the met ropolitan editorials. Their slant de bends entirely upon whether they read the New York Post or the New York Sun. Verify, one must go away from home to learn the news.
 Up and down the land today Sc attle is being editorially denounced for the shameful reception given to the President. Just hearken to this from the Fl Paso Herald:
 The reception given President Wilson by large number of Seat ties residents-one must not say citizens-was the most amazing re- ception ever experienced by a Presi- dent of the United States. That an American President should be re- ceived in sullen silence would be hnthinkable had it not actually oc- cured" "
 "Sullen silence" we submit, is exquisitely good. And it actually occurred" ....... ....- .... ~ . Now let us swing back to the Springfield Republican, which as sures its readers that the mad ac- claim and tumultuous enthusiasm shown by the Reds, I. W. ". and anarchists of Seattle for the Presi- dent is not to be taken as an in dication that the President is fa- vorably disposed toward these wor- thies. The Republican very man. fully proves that the President is no Bolshevist, even if the Bolshe.. vists of Seattle welcomed him as a brother. The Republicans consid- cred conclusion is this:
 There is no justification what ever in interpreting or misinterpret- ing the Seattle demonstration as an acclaiming of the President by the extreme and revolutionary elements of the city as their champion or as Ia sympathizer with them "Sullen silence" in Texas; 'revo- 3lutionary acclaim" in Massachusetts. The effulgent New York Sun has this to say:
 President Wilson's reception in Seattle has amazed and alarmed the sober business men and thoughtful liberals of the Pacific coast states because of the enthusiasm with which he was acclaimed by the ex-
