OPTIMISTIC VIEW Of

Thomas Z. Wilson, Packer, Says

justment in Motion.

Boston, Oct. 5.--An optimistic view of
the general industrial situation in America
was expressed by Thomas Il. Wilson,
president of the Institute Of American
Meat Packers, in an address before the
Investment Bankers Association of Amer
lea here today. He referred to recent de-
cilnes in prices of many commodities and
said the process of readjustment WAS
"in full motion"
''The pressing necessity Of the present" )"
he said, "is TO maintain n courageous and
optimistic morale. The descent from the
heights of abnormal production TO the
normal levels Of peace times should be
reached by graduation and not by per
pendicular drops. No industry upon which
large bodies of labor are dependent for a
livelihood or upon which considerable
number of producers are dependent for u

right to close its doors in such time as
this, merely to prevent shrinkage IN

of limiting production 50 as TO create
artificial values for materials on hand. -
Mr.. Wilson said that labor was begin
ming to realize that "if 1t is to proht per-
manently by the increases in wages which
it has received, it must increase the value
and the purchasing power of the sum added
to the pay envelope by lowering the cost of
commodities through increased produc-
ton"
He said that may commodities were
being sold at loss and raw material
In many instances at less than cost of
production and that this was especially
true of the livestock industry.

Aside From Repudiating the
 League of Nations, the Vital Issue in the Campaign Is Which Party Can Best Serve the Interests of the People
BY COL. WINFIELD JONES


 WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-(Special Correspondence) - Tremendous re- construction problems will confront the next occupant of the White House. The United States has en- tered on a peaceful era in which it must meet the commercial rivalry of all other nations, and the most in tense competition is already coming from our late allies, England, France and Japan. Soon our late enemy, Germany, now our friend, will again seek to dominate many markets in the United States, as she did before the world war.
 The paramount question before the voters of the republic, after a com plete repudiation of the League of Nations, is which administration Republican or Democratic-can best serve the interests of all people and contribute most to their safety, pros perity, and happiness.
 The United States is a creditor nation. Billions are owed this coun- try by the nations that were recent ly warning in Europe. The debtor nations desire to pay us in manu- factured goods rather than gold the debt cannot be paid in gold for there is not enough gold in the world to do it. This country main- tains the highest standards of living in the world. Our people receive the highest wages, work the short est hours, and have the most sani- tary and satisfactory surroundings in factory, farm and mine. Our workmen are the best fed, the best clothed the best housed and the most intelligent on the globe. We can never lower these standards and never will.
 The debtor nations are now seek ing to pay us part of their debts with goods manufactured on much cheaper scale than similar goods are produced in the United States. These foreign goods are produced by work men who are pair much less than American workmen who make simi- lar products Unless American manu- lecturers, farmers, and merchants can meet this foreign competition they ar certain to suffer. Unless American labor and industry is pro- tected from foreign competition the United States will certainly expert ence a repetition of the conditions which almost WreCl-ed American in dustry and caused American labor to suffer in 1913 and 1914. These years were under Democratic ad- ministrations. If the Democratic party gains control of the presi- dency and congress in the Novem- Der elections, and inaugurates next

REAL REC0NSTRUCTLONESTS
 MUST COMPOSE NEXT CONGRESS

year it's economic policies, such as tariff for revenue only" which have proved disastrous in the past, we will certainly experience once more the industrial ruin and commercial disaster, the millions out of em- ployment, the soup and bread lines in the big cities, and all the ills that have always followed on the heels of Democratic economic schemes.
 Obviously the return to that Peace, Progress, Prosperity" that the Democrats falsely have adopted as their campaign slogan can only be obtained by the return to power next March of the Republican party, which has always stood for con- structiveness, sound economic poli- cies and good government. The Democratic party, the party that re- fused to prepare for the world war, that bungled that war after it had begun, and that during the Wilson administration has been sectional party, headed by the "solid south,' must be busted in November. There is no other remedy for the myriad ills that have afflicted the United States during the Wilson administra- tiOn
 The next congress will be the real reconstruction congress. The present congress has merely scratched the surface of the government recon struction problems that are pressing for solution. The man elected to the White House and the men elected to house and senate in November will have to shape the country's course through the most difficult period in our history. How important it is, then, to elect members of a party that are pledged to policies which have been proved in the past to be sound economically, and which have invariably contributed to the pros perity and welfare of the citizenry.
 The laboring man will do well to reflect how he failed to prosper during Democratic administrations, and how he invariably got better wages and steadier employment during Republican administrations despite MT. Gompers attempt to "throw the labor vote" to Governor Cox
 It is only common sense for the manufacturer and the business man to reflect on his profits and losses during Democratic and Repub- lican administrations, and vote ac- cordingly in November
 The former knows that under Re publican administrations his pro- ducts have already brought a higher price, and under Demicratic admins tratios a lower price except in the artificial market conditions created by war. He knows that under the Wilson administration southern agricultural products have been pro- tected while northern and western farm products have received no pro lection from foreign competition.

Better Days Ahead

There is a growing sureness that our country has better days ahead. Of course, we have to go through a pres;dentirl campaign every four years, and while it may slow down business a little we have no discussion of the tariff to rip the life out of indus tries nor any agitation of our financial system to lay the coun- try flat. Harding and Cox are both sound, level-headed Ameri- cans and not cranks. They do not cater to any form of radi- calism or rot.
 Our country is not going to be Billy bryanized, nor Billy sunday ized, nor Gomperized, nor bediz- zened or bedevilled by Reds, Yellows nor Whites. The day of the professional agitator and special class pleaders is about ended. The minorities who ad- vocate group prosperity at the expanse of all the rest of Gods children, and organizers of All Wrong clubs have a rocky road to travel and will not get very far. The country is to big to rally for any one idea proposition or respond to appeals for race hatred or special privileges for any class or sex.-Industrial News Bureau.

Save for the rainy day but also for the day of opportunity when the dollar will buy something.
 American flax sold to Bel gian manufacturers at $500 a ton should be food for thought.
 Drugstores are now accused of svpplying nearly all the jags. Not if people don't want them.
 A good platform-less bogus politics and more real patriotism. Too many of us are only patriotic when 1t pays.
 "Divorces are the greatest evil" howls one moralist. Why net initiate an amend ment 10 the United States Constitution and prohibit them absolutely? That would be a fine chance to apply the Prohibition principle.
