From the dim and almost forgotten ages of
the past until the very present era of modern in
dustral life, one garing and only too evident fact
has appeared in all the struggles and bitter striv-
ings of the working class for better conditions
lack of unity There have been divisions upon
many things but never entire unity-that prime
requisite without which the workers struggle for
betterment is shown Of most of it's power and can
never be productive of the greatest good for the
sons of toll.
Divide ct impera, the Manchiavelan motto
of Louis XI of France, has ever been the method
by which ruling class Delilah sheared the Labor
Samson of his locks. divide and govern" was
well recognized maxim of the possessing classes
when the Ptolemies were young g-aye, even from
the very beginnings of history, ever since man
learned to exploit the labor of another, this was
recognized by them as the sure and only effective
way to perpetuate their exploitation and continue
their existence at the expense of the sweating
masses

slave of the ancients; divide and govern" and

has surely come to sorry pass when its protagon-

are protests unless you back them up? An un-

complish more in one single week than all the
years of puny, puttering protest. And who is re-

and there, again and again, the damnable fact
comes down the ages in all it's terrible truth-only
too well accepted by kings and kaisers, princes
and plutocrats, and for their own aggrandizement.
To keep the working masses divided has ever been
their task. That this has always with them been
conscious purpose I do not aver. But as to its
result for the workers it is always the same
dsorganization and disaster. Thru school and col

FEDERAL AID To
HELP MEET BIC
: FACTOR URGED
Iowa Senator, After an
investigation, Thinks
Government Should AS
sist in Building Homes.

MISUNDERSTANDING to Wash
ington, after an investigation of hous-
ing conditions in various parts of the
country, William S. Kenyon, repub-
lican, senator from Iowa, said recent
ly that he estimated the housing short
age in the United States at about
l,OOO,OOO. He believed that it would
be possible and desirable to work out
federal home loan bank plan, similar
to the Federal Farm Loan bank, to
aid Americans in the purchase or con-
struction of homes.
Senator Kenyon expressed the opin-
ion, which he voiced several times dur
ing the last session of congress, than
the possession of home will do more
to prevent man from becoming a
Bolshevist than anything else in the
world. In the cities, where the con-
gestion is so great, homeless men are
an easy prey to radicalism, he pointed
out. In Chicago, the committee OF
which he is member found that about
half a million persons are improperly
housed, and he estimated that there
are in the whole country about TO-
100000 persons in the same condition.
Prices Limit Building.
The chief reason found for the fail
ure to provide adequate buildings for
the people of this country is that
prices of materials have scared be-
yond the reach of persons of-moderate
means. The price of window glass
alone, he said, had increased 300 Ger
cent. and the price of plate glass 400
per cent, within the last four years.
Although the cost of labor is ad-
lmittedly high. Senator Kenyon said
that it had Increased in nothing like
the proportion in which materials had
risen.
New York and New Jersey have
undertaken to aid in the housing stu
alton, and there is no reason why the
federal government should not lend
a helping hand, Senior Kenyon said
He expects to introduce a bill at the

RESOLUTION.

Whereas, the department of public
works and the chief administrator Of
our state. Governor Davis, after in
vestigation of the highway subject,
have recommended that it be to the
best interest of the state of Idaho
that we support and urge federal high
way aid and assistance, and every
form of moral support and backing.
Therefore, be, it resolved, by the
Commercial Secretaries association OF
Idaho, in meeting assembled, that we
recommend to the various CONNER
cial associations of this state that they
investigate and present this matter to
the proper officers and committees
for their consideration, with the re.
quest that these respective organiza-
tons similarly endorse and encourage
for the future highway aid.

The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1920-11-26
RESOLUTION.

Because the recent lifting of the
alfalfa weevil quarantine from all
counties and districts within this state
by our state department of agricul-
ture has resulted in the quarantine of
all Idaho alfalfa by several neighbor-
ing states which limits the shipment
and sale of hay outside our own
states boundaries and isolates Idaho
alfalfa from rightful and profitable
markets.
And because this system of free
intercourse of infected hay into the
counties and districts of our own state
not as yet infected with alfalfa weevil
allows more rapid spread of the in
lection throughout the state of Idaho
And whereas, both of these causes
tend to lessen the demand and value
of all Idaho alfalfa hay.
Therefore, be it resolved by the
Commercial Secretaries association Of
Idaho that this matter be submitted
to the commercial organizations oil
this state with request that they
consider the matter of recommending
to our Idaho officials and department
of agriculture the re-establishment
of the alfalfa quarantine against coun-
ties and districts within our state nov
infected.
