BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Dec. 28.-A

school music designed to develop lat
ent musical talent and appreciation
among school children was successful
~ demonstrated at Indiana University
during the Christmas holidays when
1000 children from the Bloomington
public schools presented a Christmas
musical festival before an audience of
5000 people. The chorus of 1000
school children is said to have been
the largest Juvenile chorus ever as
sembled in the state. Accompanied
by combined orchestra of high school
and university musicians the children,
usually indispensable concert per-
formers, sang so perfectly as to attract
high praise and to mark the perform
ance as one of the major concerts OF
the year at Indiana University.
The concert was carefully planned
to demonstrate to students of the
School of Music at Indiana university

Irrepressible Expansion
BY FREDERICK J. HASKIN

of their ability to undercut the Ameri-
cans in way of living.
The irrepressible expansion doctrine
if examined with regard to any coun-
try, seems always to be a cloak for
economic imperialism-fo the desire
TO exploit some other country in a
commercial way. This, in fact, is the
whole motive of the international dra-
ma, the fundamental cause of war.
In all the principal countries the
maker or producer of goods is paid
less than what he produces is worth.
The farmer who raises a bushel OF
wheat is not paid as much for 1t as
the bushel is worth in trade after 1t
leaves his hands. If seven operatives
in shoe factory between them make
a pair of shoes worth seven dollars.
they are paid only about four The
result is that in all of the principal
manufacturing towns there is a con-
slant tendency to pile UP a surplus of
goods. Some of this is exchanged with
other manufacturing countries, but
manifestly most of it cannot be SO
disposed of. because each of these
countries also has a surplus The re.
suit is that the actual surplus of what
| labor produces, over what labor can
| buy with its wages, must be sold to
some Communicating countr !,
where the industrial system doees no,
| exist, or at least is not SO highly de
veloped. Hence the fact that all Ma
| tons compete fiercely for markets in
| China, South America, and all othe,
| 'undeveloped" countries. They mus
have these markets for their surplus
| goods. The nation that does not gel
it's share of these markets has a sur
plus of goods pile up on it's hands
Then production stops, there is unem
ployment, famine, strikes social un
rest.
Every war is at bottom struggl,
between the principal manufacture:
nations for special rights in these SUI
plus goods markets, and for the SUP
plies of raw material they contain
War will stop automatically when thu
common man refuses to fight for thes'
markets, which are made necessar.
| largely by his exploitation, and whel
he learns how TO check that eXploita
ton by getting for his labor as mucl
as it is worth in goods produced.
