In urging their respective claims. the
parties, apparently. disregard the
fact that the people. as a whole. have
a prior claim. The first step, there
fore. toward correcting the evil is to
insist that the rights of the COM
munity shall prevail that law and
order shall be preserved and that the
public shall not be made to suffer
while the contention goes on from
one mistake to another.
The failure to reach an agreement
$ due, in large measure. to the sup
position that class Is naturally hos
tile to class. In truth, each needs the
other. Capital cannot do without
abor, nor labor without capital. This
Is obvious; but the more important
point is that capital and labor are
bound by mutual obligations, not
simply by mutual needs or interests.
Dignity Common Point.
In this whole question, the moral
value of man and the dignity of
human labor are cardinal points.
By treating the laborer as a man.
not as a machine. the employer
will make him a better working
man. BY respecting his own moral
dignity as a man. the laborer will

and of the cor..nunity.
The right of labor to a living
wage, with decent maintenance for
the present and provision for the
future. Is generally recognized. The
right of capital to a fair days work
for a fair days pay is equally
plain. To secure the practical rec
ognition and exercise of both
rights, good will. no less than al

The occasion was very much en-

The personal relations between o.

have been the leading political figures
In the Islands for IL years, yet there
has never been the slightest indication
of rivalry between them. Throughout
their college life as well as their long
political service each has refused to be
a candidate for any position that the
other aspired to.
During the years Quezon was the
Philippine delegate in the American
Congress he won the esteem and con-
fidence Of both the Republican and
Democratic sides of the chamber.
Whenever he spoke he was assured Of

Suppose the Farmers Strike ?

Labor radicals in the indus
trial centers speak and act as if
the world depended entirely up
on them and those they mis-
represent, while they are indie
pendent of everything and ev-
erybody. If such men cannot
be reached thru their brains,
perhaps they can be thru their
stomachs. Here is an editorial
from a western paper-"Suc-
cessful Farming" which
should appeal to that latter or
gan, and convince even the
most unthinking radical that
he and his are dependent upon
society as a whole, and without
it he would starve, freeze or go
naked. The editorial, in part,
follows:
eve ask city workers to pom
der a moment what might hap
pen if the farmers should do
what the workers are doing
demanding shorter hours and
higher pay. The farmers are
their own bosses, so they would
not have to quarrel with any
body. They could hold out on
strike until they got good and
ready, for they can feed them
selves.
"You working city fellows,
suppose for a moment that the
farmers adopted the eight-hour
day. 1t would cut down pro-
duction at least half. Suppose
they also set price on their
labor and their products based |
on an eight-hour basic scale.
Where would you get your
food? Only the rich could buy
it at all, for the price would |
be prohibitive to men on strike.
If the cost Of living is too high |
now, how will lessened produc-
ton affect it? How will in
creased cost of production
bring prices down?
eff You city workers expect !
the farmers to go on feeding
you at the old price you have !
got to get back to work at TIE
old\wage and make it possible .
for the farmer to buy cheaper
so he can produce cheaper.
This is not a one-sided game.
1t takes two to play it and if
you city fellows cult, don't get
sore if you go hungry soon. Eli
Their the farmers must do as
you are doing, shorten the
hours and demand higher pay,
or else you must lengthen the
hours and produce more with
out more pay.
"The farmers have been pa
tent with you. When they
lose their patience, look out. If |
thew quit. who is going to feed
you? What city workers have
in common with farmers is not
so much political as economic.
What are you going to do a.
bout it,"
In many countries of Europe
food production this year was
half the usual amount. because
farmers could not plant the av-
erage crops. Relief societies
are now trying to save the chill
dren from starvation and tuber
culosis-farmers have gone on
strike and refused to produce
more than sufficient for their
own needs-Possession of a
piece of bread is now some
thing to fight for. How would
these conditions suit the we'll
fed laboring people of the Unit
ed States?
