WORK AND WAGES.

There is no more absorbing topic be-
fore the general public today than the
matter Of wage increases for those who
toll from one weeks end to the other.
Perhaps the only other question that
rivals it in general interest is the one
OF constantly increasing costs loaded
upon those who have to live by the

If there is no satisfactory method of

BOLD RAIL PROPAGANDA.

One Of the boldest pieces Of propa-
ganda being issued in the interest Of
railroads is the claim that the govern
men is not guaranteeing income to rail.
roads.
This claim is made despite the fact
that section, 422 of the Cummins- Esch
act amends the interstate commerce
net by permitting the Interstate COM
merce commission to set rates so that
the railroads may have a return Of 512
per cent on their aggregate value and
one.half Of + per cent to ''make provi-
sion in whole or in part for improve.

This clear authorization to the com
mission to adjust rates so that the rail
roads may. have 6 per cent interest, is
ignored by railroad incluenees that as

OUT IN THE OFEN.

Living in city is mild sort Of in
sanity. In New York, for instance, girls
are being taught in public school how
to keep house in small cramped flats
and apartments. And it is necessary
too, for the tendency now is for people
to congest more thick1y in the cities.
Somehow we feel it's going to be a
red-letter day for America when the
tide turns from the cities to the small
towns and the farms, with fresh air,
good health, pure milk for the babies,
independent life, glorious nature and
boundless Fairgrounds for the Riddles.
Only those who have lived away from
the cramped and crowded houses Of our
large cities can really know the comfort
Of living. Packed in the modern
apartment like sardines in a box, as
the modern city family is generally
packed, isn't healthful, econ omical or
a happy mode Of living.
Of course, it wouldn't do for every
one to start for the farms and small
cities at once. We've got to have
cities. But sometime the tide may turn,
and slowly but steadily each year the
trend may be toward the opens When
it does we predict that those who are
first to seek life where it can be more
comfortably lived will be the very type
Of citizens needed in our rural dis.
tricts. Always the foreign element will
want to eolonize, and the cities will
always hold out the greatest induce
ment to them. But into the country,
and into towns like Duluth will come a
sensible, hopeful class of people, the
kind worth having as neighbors and
onto the farms will 90 enthusiastic
workers who will make good from the
start, and who will make America a

SUGAR BOWL BANKS.

Still there are many who will not in.
vest their saving in government securi-
ties and who can not bring themselves
to trust their money to the care of
savings banks.
Their days would be filled with anxi-
ETY. and they would worry SO at night
that they could scarcely get any sleep
and what little they did get would be
filled with dreams of financial pirates
descending upon their funds, or OF
trusted bank employees fleeing to Can.
ada or South America with their pre-.
cious possessions hidden in potato
sacks.
Recently man lost his straw hat
and with it SIS which he had hidden
under the swaziland. He has now prob.
ably lost all faith in straw hat as a
substitute for a savings bank. Had
this mans $75 been invested in regis.
tered government securities he woul.i
not have lost hiss savings.
Recently the newspapers told of a
man in Greenwich. Conn.,, who gave q
boy pair of shoes to take out to be
polished. He received back the shoes
shining like a mirror, but the $4,000
he had hidden in their toes were gone
and the boy can not remember who
shined the shoes.
Many women have a habit of hiding
money under the parlor rug, or under
a mattress; which is the first place A
burglar searches when he enters q

And there have been numerous cases
Of farmers who would not trust bank

to put up some extra tomato catsup and

to the Joint Labor Committees de-
mand that Parliament shall be imn1e-

They would prefer, however, that
there should be no delay and are
critical of the postponement of the
QUESTION for a month.
Both J. R. Clynes, leader of The
Labor Party nthe House Of Com
mons, and C. w. Bowerman, M. F.,
Secretary Of the Trades Union Con-
gress, were delighted with the noti1i-
cation that steps were being taken
to call the House together.
Ben Tilett, M. p, said in an inter-
view with the London Daily "Herald;':
"1n spite of the delay, there can be
very useful discussion in the mean
time. Any good result must be. forced
by public opinion, and that opinion
should represent the views of those
directly interested and penalized. not
only the very poor but the trades
men and the working middle class.

executives of the great unions might

not greater than, the war itself.

Total loss of man power......5O ,1os, 900
The loss in property is estimated at
over $4,000, 100000 and the cost in
money at over $1s6,o0o,00006o.
Before the war the national debt Of
the United States was $1,o2s 200, ooo. It
is now 24,974 100000. Great Britain IS
debt piled in the same period from
$3,4S5,0o0,000 to $39,314,Oo0,O00
frances debt mounted from $685.
100000 to $4e,o95, 100000.
That's the debt, but it is not all; the
cost of maintaining the worlds armies
and navies has been pyramided. Ia
1912 this country spent $244,177 900 on
its army and navy. In 1920 it spent
81 ,422, 752 900. England in the same pc
riod increased its army and navy bud
get from 1851 ,044,000 to 1,l21 ,318, 900,
and Japan s expense for army and navy
maintenance jumped from $93, SIG, 900 to
$685., 1857 900.
The average tax paid to the federal
government in 1920 by each person was
$43.64. Far what was it spents About
$40 was used to pay for past wars and
for preparation for future wars, ana
only d trifle more than three dollars
was spent for other purposes. That IS
to say that $l3 Of the money collected
by the government every year from the
people goes to war while only one dol

needless money, for the pastime of quar-
reling with our world neighbors, for
killing one another and for destroying

A big army and strong navy made
