ally, labor leaders give as their rea-
son for the new departure that con-
gress as at present constituted has
not given proper attention to the
needs of labor.
Whatever may be the reason, the
move can be nothing else than wise
one. 1t is thoroughly in accord with
the constitution that when a depart
ment is not functioning to please its
constituents, it is time for that group
to exercise its power to obtain change.
And what the clear, level headed lead
ership that characterizes the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, nothing
could be more sane than it is entitled
to and should receive direct repres-
entation in congress.
Politics has come in for much abuse
of recent years. But the way to tack
lie the problem is not thru critisism
not through wailing and pointing out
the things that should be made, but
by simply getting into the game and
doing constructive things from inside.
II there is any real fault with the pres
ent system of representative govern
ment in the United States, il 10 be-
cause voters permit il to be. The re-
sponsibility is upon the individual, not
upon the representatives that are Sc
lectcd. II is unfortunate that many
American people cannot realize that
it is their duty to become individually
active in everything that pertains to
government. And It is always those
who are too busy to vote who are con
tent at election to let the other fel-
low select his government official who

exactly right.
One Of the remedies is, Of course
active participation by every citizen in
the great game of determining how
We are to be governed. The proposal
of the American Federation Of Labor
offers the possibility that many men
otherwise inactive will become, polit.
ically, active citizens of the United
States. And that is thing to be en-
couraged.

IRELAND AND POLITICS.

American people are really taking
interest in the Irish problem, In re-
Spouse to the endless propaganda emf
anating from political centers and SOL
civ for political reasons and effects,
many substantial citizens have con-
cluded that the United States has
more than a right to sponsor Irish In
dependence.
II seems strange that we cannot re-
alize that the Irish problem Is not an
American question and that we can
have no Just share in solving Il, Ire
lands independence can BE no more to
an Alaskan republic is to England.
And the fact Of the matter Is that not
more than IS per cent of the Irish
people are stimulating trouble and
demanding secession from the British
empire.
All the trouble in the United States
relative to that matter has come as
consequence of the efforts Of adroit
politicians in certain sections where
the Irish vote predominates to make
political capital of the difficulty Eng
land faces. In New York. any dis
