ATTENTION, KNITTERS

The knitting committee is most anx- ious to finish it's last allotment by Feb- ruary 27, so all knitters who have ex- tra sock wool on hand are requested to return this as soon as possible to headquarters, so that it can be given out to the other knitters and made up into socks. Unless this wool is re- turned at once 1t will not be possible to have the necessary number made on time.
 Remember that when this allotment of socks is sent to the gulf division the knitting of the chapter will be over, and the splendid knitters of Jef- ferson county have at last their well earned rest.

IN tins country

good and simple reason that should
be common to all countries. II men
living in novels and slums, working
under sweated conditions, were will
ing to sacrifice their lives for their
country, a natural corollary must
be that the country must be made
worth living in. If love of country
means giving up ones life for it
then that country must be made
worthy of such heroic sacrifice.
81 have watched with interest and
anxiety the inevitable effects that
followed the world war. The war
was fought in the interest Of de-
mocracy and justice. Untold sacri-
fees were made in blood and treas
ure, not by any one section of the
community, not by any one class or
creed, but BY all elements in the
nation. The viewpoint-that is your
word, not ours-of the British work
ers is that if justice was desirable in
world affairs and nations resorted
even to war to attain it, justice is
also to be sought in industrial mat
ters and the objective of the labor
movement can be summarized in
that sentence"

too, was greatly modified. His orig
inal idea was that an hours work,
REGARDLESS of what it was, should
have the same value. Thus a man
working an hour en- the streets
should be entitled to the same re-
ward as a skilled mechanic or law
yer.
What is needfui in the support
of the government in an emergency
such as we have just passed through
in the last two or three years, to
enable the government TO exercise
its functions in the way Of handling
its armed forces?" asked Attorney
Stevenson.
"There is only one way that the
government can defend ITSELF was
the answer, "and that is by the use
Of force, and it can only use force
if it can coerce or make or require
the individual to render service TO
the state, and anarchists deny the
right Of the state to force an ind
yidual TO do anything

that the workers demand-and
rightly-a fair share Of the fruits
Of their labor. No one can deny
that the pre-war conditions Of the
railway workers were not only bad
but also a sad reflection on our so
cial life. That they will be altered
and never revert to the old way
again is the considered judgment of
both sides"
"Do you think the railroads Of
Great Britain will be permanently
nationalized?" was asked.
at appears to me-" he asserted,
without hesitation, that the intro
duction in Parliament Of the new
transportation bill, which provides
for coordination Of the steamships,
railroads and roads, renders the ma
tionalization Of the railroads in
evitable."

British appreciation

"The British people appreciate
warmly all that America did. They
understand what noble ideals in
spired her people. While l cannot
and have no desire to interfere with
mere party politics and political
warfare such as exists in all coun-
tries, l very fervently feel that
neither party politics, nor party ad-
vantage, nor personal ambition
should interfere with the cementing
of that friendship so essential to
the worlds welfare.
Eastern Europe is in turmoil.

fessor, was a fair definition Of an

The Goldman definition continued

But Professor Reeves would not
admit that the definition by Gold
man was a fair statement OF an
archism-held by some but not all

To,card Industrial Peace

- Mr.. Thomas continued in few
brief phrases to crystalline his views
on the means of attaining industrial
peace. The great desideratum OF the
labor movement, he feels, should be
harmony, and, although one Of the
prime movers in the formation Of
the Triple Alliance in 1912, he has
always insisted that, with the power
that comes from organization, there
must be responsibility.
"Just as capital has privileges, SO
too it has responsibilities" ne said.

Agrees Vith Vanderlip

Mr.. Thomas was further asked
whether he agreed with the state
ment Of Frank A. Vanderlip that
Great Britain would no longer profit
in international trade from the dig
ferential in costs which came from
the payment Of low wages, and if so,
why.
"I do most heartily agree" he
said. 81 heard and also read Mr..
Vanderlip's first address in this
country after his return from Eu-
rope and thought that it was not
only a courageous speech, but also
that II was very necessary that some
one should say what he did, because
we tend to live in FOOLS paradise,
and TO do that is dangerous at this
time above all others.
"As to why the differential will
no longer exist, I may say for a
