LONDON Captains of industry
and the working classes tho world
over agree that an International in
dustrial conference which ignored
Germany would be folly For this
reason Germany was represented at
Geneva recently.
They see clearly enough that the
success uf iutcrnationnlism depends
upon tho hearty cooperation Of an
countries. what Is less generally
evident is that lu the political field
the absence Of similarly complete
cooperation may have quite a disas-
trous effect upon industry.
Yet the main problem Of our
workers today is not 40 much to
fight employers and determine their
share Of profits as TO stop artificial
conditions In Germany from bring
ing down the general standard OF
living.
\ Lower Level.
The fact is that allied policy has
created artificial conditions which
compel Germany 10 be a blacklcg
among the nations. The threat OF an
armed occupation of their country
~ hich hangs over the German Ilso-
tlo ~ largely responsible for driving
thom 20 work at n much lower level
OF substance than they had before
the war.
II is not simple affair TO aay
precisely how far the standard OF
life for the German worker has fall
en- below his lg1l level. The fed
eral statistical office calculates that
the cost of living wac nine times as
high In February March, 1921, as In
