WILL THEY RESPOND?

Unless all experiences shall be belied
the effort, more ambitious, indeed, than
has ever been made before, TO have the
labor unions mark out the candidates for
the labor voters will fail of the results that
the Federation of Labor hopes tn get.
Word has been sent out to all the central
unions that the campaign must be made
memorable by the solidarity of the labor
vote for the friends of labor.
Undoubtedly, this element will prove a
factor In the campaign that may not be
reckoned with and will tend to discount
many of the calculations of the politicians
IN advance. The labor unions appear to
be taking chapter out Of the experience
of the Antisaloon League and carrying
the text into national campaign. The
success Of that organization in the matter
II sought TO promote does, IN fact, yield
food for reflection as TO what NAV be done
by other bodies of similar solidarity of
purpose and machinery.
Yet, in the case of the labor vote, the
worker has been peculiarly sensitive to
dictations as TO the act of his superior
Americsnism, and he is under so many in
Huenees personal, local, and of party at
tachment that there does not seem to be
any sound basis for the federation to hope
TO carry anything like its full membership
In the direction to which il points--labor
control in politics. American.

The Nc~sprint Market.

The trend Of the newsprint market
clearly indicates Increasing difficulties 70,
the consumer, and it 10 tho belief Of many
persons. well-informed on the situation
that there arc ahead even more serious
times than those already experienced. o.
| course. this means increasing problems for
| daily newspapers-problcms not alto
gethcr as regards price, although that is
today out of all sense or reason-but
the problem of actual supply; the failure
to procure which means suspension with
a newspaper. Already this very thing
has happened in various cities. in most
cases temporarily but in isolated cases
permanently.
The spot market for newsprint six
months ago was four cents per pound:
three months ago seven cents, and today
IL is ten cents and even more. 1t does not
require the mind of a prophet to see what
is ahead of us.
There are today, or were the fore part
Of this week, many hundred tons of news
print at the various mills in New England
and New York awaiting shipment, with
no cars on which to load it. Some few
mills had piled up stocks TO the point
where they were considering shutting
down until the transportation companies
could furnish cars and forward the long
delayed shipments TO anxious customers.
In justice to the railroads, it must be add
ed that the cold weather and heavy SHOWS
had proven a great handicap in their
work, but there is the situation.
Only yesterday, publishers who made
limited tonnage contracts for 1920 with
price named for the first three months
only, were notified of an advance on April
first.
And so it goes. II the upward trend in
spot newsprint continues for another six
months as now seems probable, newspaper
readers are likely to see many radical
changes develop in the publishing BUSH

PRODUCTION AND LIVING COST.

The contention that the high cost Of
! living is very largely due TO increased
| cost of labor in all lines is generally
recognized as well founded The cloth
iers contend that the unprecedented
advances in the pay to garment work.
ers IN recent years is at the bottom
of the higher cost of clothing. APP
parently the end is not yet. The Bu-
reau of Statistics In the Department
OF Labor has issued a comparative
statement showing conditions IN many
OF the important industries. The figures
show that wages in the clothing industry,
for example, continue to advance faster
than production.
The governmental figures show an
increase Of 54.2 per cent in the num-
Der employed in making mems cloth
ing last month, compared with jan
uary of last year. The increase In the
pay rolls of those factories was 1875
per cent.
The increase in the number of boot
and shoe workers was 81 per cent
and that of their pay roll was 25.7.
Tn number employed as cotton fin
ishers was 24.3 per cent greater last
month than In January, 1919, while
the payroll was $40 per cent larger
The increase in the hosiery and un-
derwear workers was Il.3 per cent
and the increase in their pay rolls 1913
The number of automobile factory
employees increased 377 and the pay
rolls of those factories Were 70 per cent
larger than a year ago. The number
employed In paper mills increased Al
per cent and the pay rolls 25.2.-In-

THE BUSINESS GIRL,
By Lillian Leveridge.

| With steady, pauseless pace she hastes
Along the crowded street,
That echoes, morn and noon and eve.
The clangour and the beat
OF grinding wheels and vendors cries
And tramp of hurrying feet.
Her eyes are bright, her step alert,
Her spirit joys to know
Herself wave of this life tide
That siirges TO and fro;
Her own allotted task work
No hand but hers may do
The Haunting shows~of wealth and pride
Are passed unheeded by;
NO art is there to swerve her steps
Or win one envious sigh,
But, lol window full of flowers
Has caught her ardent eye.
To day wild asters of the wood
The, place of honor hold,
They bring glimpse of heavens own blue
And sunlight's peerless gold;
And memories of far off things
Their petals fair enfold-
OF wind swept hills and perfnmed Wales
Where dreaming sunbeams lie
Upon myriad swaying blooms
That almost seem to vic
In color and in loneliness
With you low bending sky;
OF forest stiffness that enfolols
In warm and close embrace
A Thousand little loves that know
The smile on Natures face.
And find within her sheltering arms
A blest abiding place.
The business girl amid the toll,
The hurry and the din,
Feels that the wild has opened wide
Its arms to take her in;
She knows that all true things and sweet
Are still her own TO win.

Whatever is the REASON that you mean so

You think tho worlds your playground,

PRESS COMMENTS.
CONCURRENT POWER.

Nobody except tho attorneys 1T the
Anti-Saloon League pretonds to under
stand the clause in the Eighteenth Amend
ment which says, "I'he Congress and the
several States shall have concurrent
power to enforce this article by appro-
printc legislation" and these attornc6ys,
strangely, shy that Congress alone shall
have the power described
On the theory that such a provision
could not have been introduced into the
Constitution for the first time without a
purpose. the New Jersey House Of Repre-
scntativcs has exercised the power granted
by passing bill, 81 to 81, authorizing
the manufacture and sale of $50 per cent
beer. II is expected thnt the measure
will be favorably actAd upon by the Senate
next week, when, with Governor Edwards
approval, il will be used by the attorney
general to sustain his suit in the Supreme
Court of the United States attacking the
validity Of the amendment and the law
for its enforcement.
In this way an Ameri can State, con-
scious of its rights and interpreting reason
ably the plain language a the Constitution
addresses with autho rity and dignity tho
only tribunal capable Of determining the
issue. That court is not in the habit of
multiplying the instrument of which it is
the living voice. 1fthe Prohibition Amen
mend was unlawfully submitted and
adopted, If it is in conflict with the Bill Of
Rights and If the concurrcnt-power clause
vitiates the whole article by indefniteness,
We shall soon have n judgment 20 that
effect.
When such questions arise between the
States and the Nation the processes of the
law comprehend something more than the
Of drys and vets. The controversy in
wolves the whole people and goes to Che
very foundations of elf-government--a
great cause worthy of the profound con-
sideration of a great bench.-New York
