Labor Bites Itself

LII ''0 CHORUS 10 get suddenly
much larger share of production
labor is biting itself in a tender SPOT
tor it fails to take account Of the
tact that we cannot divide what we
90 not produce. And every strike
cuts down production.
From an article in "The Call" we
extract the following, which is a
typical specimen Of the propaganda
largely responsible for the possibility
of an economic crisis:
Driven from pillar to post, bounded
IN the shop and out Of it by its mas
tiers, organized labor is quite ready to
take up the cudges against its
enemies-the organized capitalist class.
1t goes without saying that indepen-
dent action on the political field for
the class-conscious working men and
women spells adherence to the Socialist
party and support of the Socialist
campaign
The absurdity of the statement
that labor is being "driven from
pillar to post, hounded," ETC., is so
patent that it hardly calls for COM
ment.
But the assumption that labor and
capital necessarily are opposing
forces, without common interests, is
another matter. This assumption
underlies all the vicious doctrines of
unrest and is based on a complete
lack of understanding of the quail
ties and functions of capital.
Fundamentally, capital is not
mere money; it consists rather of
the stocks of goods and services
available, and in the process of being
made available, for the satisfaction
OF human needs and desires; and,
Of even greater Importance, the
agencies and tools for producing
more of the material things that con-
tribute to the comfort, progress and
enjoyment OF inc natlOn.
This capital-all of it-works rfft
only for the individuals or gro Uos
who have title to tit workrT for
everybody. There is nothing Hmore
fallacious than the suppositi on that
because the ownership of we; nth ie
unevcnly distributed-as ~, ALWAYS
will be so long as some eople are
more thrifty and intel ligent than
others-there are CORE spending inc
qualities in its enjoynent. If that
were true the fami'W/of the indi-
vidual with an inco ne of, say, s10,-
100000 annually vWald use perhaps
l 100000 loaves Of Jread, 10000 suits
of clothing, 100000 cigars, 10000
theater tickets4l. and so on, and
others would lave to do with less of
these things. 1l8ut we all know that
nothing of the kind happens or ever
could happAn. Only minute portion
OF the arT.ual production Of wealth
is utllizea. to meet the personal re-
qulrem1lts of the rich. What, then,
oecomeFj of the remainder?
lhA answer is obvious. It goes
lntoHthe creation of new wealth.
my production of the things which
arr required to maintain or improve
fFl> standard of living, not of the
= capitalists" who consume onlv a
small fraction of it, but the people
as a whole.
1t follows, therefore, that when
labor attacks capital it hits every
one in the country. And labor itself
suffers most of all, because most of
US are workers. Every strike means
production irretrievably lost-so
much less to be divided among us.
We read, for example, that the
strike of tool makers at Cincinnati
continues beyond the tenth week.
Here is a strike regarded as being of

'Santo" Not San
% the Editor of The Tribune

1 y the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: With regard to the "san
Domingo controversy, should like to
quote from De Wits Spanish Gram
mar as l learned it in high school:
THE masculine adjective 'santo' is
shortened to SAN before proper names.
except those beginning with TO- or
Do Examples: San Francisco. but
Santo Tomas or Santo Domingo. The
feminine adjective santa is never alb
breviated."
This rule may also be found in any
good Spanish grammar. Thus, "W. c..
W." is right and al. H. B." only partly
so. Any one familiar with the Spanish
language will agree that it is so much
more euphonious than the English that
Spanish will not well bear anglicization
for euphony. E. C.
