OUR WORST PROFITEERS.

At luncheon held in New York last week o. the
Community Councils of National Defense R. c. Cad-
well, cotton manufacturer recently returned from
England said that English experience had taught the
value of councils between organized labor and ne en-
ployees Mr., Caldwell said
'If organized labor had been recognized in Eng
land twenty years ago that nation would be enjoying
greater measure of success than today. We must
recognize organized employers. Refusal of employ
to deal with labor has led to extremeties
81 view with satisfaction the signs of dissatis
faction that around today. 1t is sign Of
awakening The workers realize what they want and
that they have rights Those rights should be recog
nzad. The basic wrong of labor unions is in demand
ing shorter hours when increased production is
50 necessary. There must be a revision of senti-
ment
1T is said that there 1000 mlionaires in
this country. If this is true, there are IT 900 new
milIionaries. This an improper distribution OF
wealth. The first step toward proper adjustment
of conditions is councils whether community councils
shop councils"
The charging of excessive profits is reprehensble
enough at any time since always the taking of
an unfair advantage of ones fellow human beings
but the nature of such practices in times of peace
not to be compared with the utter criminalty of war
time proteerng, and the report that there are 1000
new millionaires and probably at least $1,000 new
near-milionares in the United States as a result of
the war, Cor in other words, the result of con-
scienceless proteering the needs of the govern
ment and the American people during the period of
war; is one of the most serious indictments that has
ever been brought against considerable body of
the people of this country We may well wonder
what has become of old time spirit of fairness
and patriotism when many thousands of our peo-
pie, instead of treating their fellowmen and their
country in its hour of peril fairly and squarey have
been so Infamous to take advantage of the great
emergency to enrich themselves, by taking excessive
profits instead of contentng themselves with reason
able and legitimate earning and thus at least avoid
ing the putting of serious obstacles in the way of their
country's success in the war.

LET PUBLIC WORKS TAKE UP
THE SLACK

Each day that labor is unemployed
there is an economic loss to the com
munity. Each man not employed is
either a public charge or an idle pro-
ducing unit, and since it is certain that
return to peace basis will take some
time, public works should absorb labor
as fast as possible, even under condi-
tions which might seem uneconomical
on account of high wages and high
prices of materials. Even if the public
pays greater price for public i'm
provements, it prevents the economic
loss due to idle man power. If, to
prevent unemployment, the army is
demobilized slowly, the public pays for
the maintenance of the soldiers. 1t
would be better to demobiliZe as
promptly as the military situation per-
mits, increasing the amount of public
work to such an extent as to prevent
unemployment. Such a course would
mean permanent and substantial re-
turns for the money spent whereas the
maintenance of men in camp after the
military necessity ceases is a dead loss.
