EXPORTS

Notwithstanding the United States
exports in 1920 were the largest
ever, and almost three times as
large as those of 1913, unemploy-
ment in this country has reached
over 100000 of workers. Some
thing is rotten somewhere. The
organized workers know some of
the somewheres where this rotten
ness exists. The millionaires and
the millionaire makers say it is be-
cause buying has stopped on ac-
count of the lack of confidence; be-
cause of overproduction; because of
high wages, etc. But they don't
complain of profiteering, of excess
profits, of the pulling of the public
leg by the railroad owners and their
hired man. Congress. Oh no, moth
ing of that kind.
Last summer they were bowling
for more production; they said
prices could not and would not
drop. The railroads were continually
nagging Congress for more privi-
leges, for higher freight rates in
order to make sure of their per
cent on watered stock, while they
were piling up eXorbitant charges
for repair work on locomotives and
rolling stock and doing anything and
everything to increase the cost of
transportation.
Here's about how much high wages
has had to do with the conditions
A pair of shoes that sold for
$3.50 in 1918 went up to $1,000.
The increased cost of labor on that
pair of shoes was 40 cents. If the
labor increase We're all of it the
shoes would now be worth not more
than $3.50. That illustration shows
about how much labor had to do
with high prices. The same is true
of nearly all the necessities of life.
Will some one tell the public how
much labor got out of the increased
cost of sugar in the spping of 1920
over its cost in the spring of 1912
Our exports are larger than ever
before, therefore we have produced
more than ever before. Warehouses
and storage plants are full to over
flowing and there are millions of
hungry men, women and children.
Something must be done to put
an end to this condition.
The country is rich enough in re-
sources to support many times the
population it now has.
Every producer of every kind
should have house to live in,
plenty for his family and himself to
eat, good clothes to wear, time to
read and otherwise to improve his
mind to the end that he may become
an outstanding self-respecting Amer
lean citizen. The laborer of the coun-
try makes or produces all that is
worth having, why is he not al
lowed to enjoy his just share of it?
In a healthy trade condition ex-
ports should in all times equal if not
exceed imports.

Wage Cut Efforts
Another Blot on
Lumber Industry

The strenuous efforts made at the
present time by lumber operators
and their pet, the AL, in reducing
wages below which any human be-
ing can maintain decent standard
of living, is just another blot in the
history of the lumber industry. The
only difference-this time they have
chosen some of the workers to as
sist them, in order that public opin-
ion might not be directed against
them too strongly. However, it is
apparent to those who think in the
industry that pre-war levels is the
ultimate goal.
Many of us have thought that
the intolerable days of before the
war in the lumber industry was
wiped into oblivion, and We're never
to return. We were all led to be-
lieve that democracy in the lumber
industry was to be one of the fruits.
for the sacrifices made during the
strenuous war days, but now 10 our
disappointment We find ourselves
dropping back, step by steD into the
old rut of pre-war days, and shu6de-
with fear of the bare existence that

1t is an unfortunate situation and
highly regrertable that in spite e
the incessant education carried on
during the past in The lumber in.
dustry the workers have not IN
greater numbers realized the neces-
sity Of organization. 1t is deplor-
able that workers in such large
numbers have remained unorganized
because they failed to understand
that their true interest lies in Join
ing the organization of their indus
try. For it is fact that belong
ing to an employers labor organ
lzation, manipulated by them, is no
better than being unorganized, and
recent wage reductions demonstrate
that fact.
The workers have failed to observe
how the army of capital has become
more and more united and disciplined
and how it constantly moves with
common impulse. Organized capital
IS forever seeking out the weakest
spots of organized labor for their
attacks, and the capitalists in the
, lumber industry picked the AL as
the weak spot among the workers in
/ 'S'A-4SNA 4iANNSbly anu dS q re-

wages, but crudely handed down, so
crude that the meekest have cried
out with voices never heard before.
just as the lumbermen through
their organization have today pro-
duced veritable monopoly of
wealth, great, intricate and har-
monious in its purpose, so must the
workers in the lumber industry ere

centralized that it can act with a
single impulse and for a single pur-
pose This can be realized if every
worker in the industry take a great
er interest in his welfare and union.
and uses his utmost endeavors to
bring workers within the fold. There
IS not single union man but who
could influence at least one person
to JOIN his organization, if he tried
but hard enough. The employers are
constantly strengthening their ranks.
and labor must do the same. What
are you doing to strengthen your
organization
