Announcement is made that the first decision of
the national conference unemployment is to the
effect that the burden of the problem is to be
thrown back upon each city.
Fortunately South Bend has already solved a
large part of its problem. or rather has no such
problem because the character of its industries is
such that it has very few seasonal workers and
its factories have been able TO keep running
practically full time.
The decision of the employers here to give first
opportunities residents of this city will probably
result in avoiding any acute symptoms Of what is
recognized to be a national problem.
The larger centers which have large numbers
OF unemployed will find small relief from the
tional agencies They will be asked adopt

be given a chance work part time.

TO the railways be coupled with provision that the

The passing back of any portion of the problem

For this is a dual life we lead. what

There's the life Of strife with it's

CRAFTSMANSHIP BY POINTS.

NO summary OF principles or policy pertaining
to national or international affairs has ever attract
ed wider attention during a limited time than did
the famous fourteen points of President Wilson
during the period Immediately succeeding the war:
Wilson's fourteen points were discussed in every
civilized nation in the world and were treated as il
they constituted a law which had binding force
upon, the nations whose affairs might, be influenced
by adherence to the principles therein expressed.
The text was so frequently referred to- that it be-
came customary to make reference to it as if it
were an actual constitution or form OF law.
The practice is quite customary because it is
convenient. 1t is more convenient to refer to a
document by its general title than 10 describe it's
contents every time it is mentioned. In the mat
ter OF time the Japanese declaration of policy to-
wards China preceded Wilson'S fourteen points. 1t
IS now a good many years since Japan presented to
China a list of twenty-one demands with the i'm
plication that if these demands were not granted.
Japan would proceed to use forciblc means to apply
her policy to the Celestial empire. Most OF us have
forgotten just what these demands were, but every
one who has kept at all in touch with eastern affairs
IS familiar with the fact that such demands were
made, and that they constituted a list of twenty
one. During the present discussion of far eastern
afairs' fresh reference has been made to the list of
tWenty-one Japanese demands Or points.
In connection with far eastern affairs, Mr.. Roof
has outlined a policy in the form of four points or
principles. The four Root principles have been ac>
cepted IN substance by the interested powers, al
though the Interpretation of these principles is not
that we have now another list Of four principles or
points to which constant reference is being made.
Still further. the Chinese have come forward
with a list of their own. In presenting to the CON
terence, the policy which their delegates believe
ought to be observed toward China, they have
enumerated a list of ten points which they insist
upon. It is rather interesting to note also that so
lar as the negotiations have gone, the Chinese have
been signally successfulin putting over their pro-
gram. Each point brought up for consideration
thus far has been agreed to by the conference, a
fact which may be a demonstration of the tradition
al witness with which the Chinaman is accredited,
or OF the sound judgment t of the Chinese statesmen.
IN sensing the probabilities as to how far the other
nations will be likely to go in concedine to China
the details essential to complete and independent
sovereignty.
