THE

Today, in paying homage to its unknown
soldier dead, the nation pays tribute to all Of its citi-
zens who. going forth to battle in the cause of Lib
crty, gave up their lives in the great struggle and
earned for themselves the gratitude of a world.
There could be no finer expression of the spirit of
democracy, for, i'll doing honor to the memory of
this soldier of unknown name and rank we have be-
fore us the symbol Of all that great company of men,
drawn from every element Of our population, to
whose patriotism no limits were set, and who, in the
time of trial and stress, stood forth simply as
American citizens and gave all that they had to
their country.
Our people are not alone in this form of tribute.
Elsewhere, in the capitals of Europe, the bodies of
their unknown dead have been laid beside those of
the great and mighty of the earth, and the inter
ment of these sacred fragments of what were once
living, pulsing bodies has been accompanied BY ex-
ercises as impressive and as sincere as have marked
the burial of men whose names may ring down the
centuries.
In the burial Of Our own dead the other nations
Join with us in sympathetic acts of honor. Flowers
gathered from the four corners Of the earth will lie
upon the tomb. Distinguished statesmen, specially
commissioned by the heads OF their respective gov
attended the o~bsequies and add their
quota to the solemn chorus.
Unnamed, unknown save as one of a gallant
company, this soldier lies as the type of all is com
rades, the symbol of a spirit which lives from age to
age, though its earthly habitation crumbles to dust,
a spirit in whose preservation lies the hope of hui
%rnanity.

PEACE ON EARTH.

The anniversary of the signing of the armistice
could not be more fittingly marked than by the
formal assembling of representatives of the great
nations to remove causes OF misunderstanding
strengthen ties of friendship and remove from the
world at least a large share of the risk of war and of
the burden of war armament.
The conference on limitation of ornaments
called for this day, will meet only in a formal way at
this time, as it is desired, that nothing shall stand
IN the way of the solemn exercises attending the
,nterment, with all the honors than men can pay, of
the body of the unknown American soldier'i in the
national cemetery at Arlington. Dignitaries who
have come from abroad to attend the conference
will participate in the exercises, and the actual ses-
slons of the conference will not begin until tomor-
row: Nevertheless, this is the actual date for the
beginning of the conference, and it is thus that the
record will read.
In many quarters extravagant expectations as
to the possibilitie of the conference have been en-
tertained and. expressed. AS in all cases where
people have been led to hope for, the impossible.
there will be disappointnents. But while there has
been njudicious emphasis on the impossible, the
outpourings of desire for real peace have been so
general and SO earnest that those who are charged
with the duty of making the decisions cannot fail
to be impressed with a sense of their responsibility
to their own people and to the world.
The world longs for peace. 1t is weary of war,
and the talk of war, and of the burden which the
menace of war imposes. In this conference are rep
resented the nations which have in their hands the
issues Of peace or war. On the spirit in which they
approach their work, in their recognition of what
the needs and the longings of the world arc, and in
their willingness to subordinate selfish ambition to
the common good lies the fate of the world.

ARM1STrcE DAY,

Three years ago, along the long battle line that
stretched from the North sea to the Swiss noun
talns, a great silence fell upon the camps. The guns
had fired their last shot, weary men had made their
last charge, and death ceased to stalk abroad over
the shattered and tortured fields. The terms of the
a%r1n1stice had been accepted, and everyone realized
that the real end of the war had come.
The war had placed an unusual strain on all the
peoples involved. Life. whether in the front trench
es or in the comparative security of the home, has
taken on a strange, unnatural aspect. Men and
women had been living under high pressure, facing
conditions new to them and which changed rapidly
from day to day. The sudden relaxation of this
tension caused reactions in many different forms.
The world. at fever heat. was in a partial delirium,
and with the sense OF immediate danger removed,
its first impulse was to celebrate, noisily and hys-
terically.
That impulse was natural. The conditions call
ed for some unusual form of expression. the more
cxtravagant the more satisfactory. Those condi-
tons have long since disappeared, and it would be
impossible now to repeat the scenes of iubilation
which marked Armisticc Day three years ago. Since
that time the world has been trying to readiust
itself, and there has been a gradual revision to hab-
its Of sober thought. We continue to celebrate MOI
vember II as the anniversary of the Armistice, and
we shall continue to do SO indefinitely, but our cele-
bratlons take on a different form and are marked bv
a different spirit. Three years ago we reveled in the
sunshine when the cloud which had obscured it was
lifted. Today we observe the anniversary of what
we hope marks the end Of the dominance of the
nilitaristic spirit in the affairs Of the world. and,
with eyes looking forward, seek for paths wherein
our feet may tread safely as we 20 onward toward
the better things of life.

HAWAIIAN LABOR CONDITIONS.

The emergency labor commission appointed by
the Hawaiian government summarizes the labor
conditions in the islands and discusses the condi-
tons governing labor in this territory. Special at
iention is given to the activities of the Japanese
group. The commission says that while at the be-
ginning the Japanese laborers were very desirable
and helpful, that condition has disappeared and
that the Japanese have shown themselves the most
difficult to handle Iof any of the foreign labor
groups. These laborers are strongly Japanese in
all their activities, and, unlike nearly all of the other
aliens who have reached Hawaii, they display no
desire to become a part of this civilization or to en-
ter sympathetcally into the development of Amcri-
can ideals and institutions.
In. connection with the whole labor situation,
the commission declares that because Of the condi-
tons there, material notifications of the general
American Immigration policy are necessary.
At this distance it seems that the position of
the commission is entirely sound. Hawaii has not
sufficient native labor to operate it's industries. 1t
must import workn1en from somewhere; it has i'm
ported from many parts of the world. The condi-
tions in Hawaii do not lend themselves to the de-
velopment OF a large immigration from the United
States, What is needed is a sufficient supply of la
Dor accustomed to the tropical or seni-tropical con-
ditions prevailing on the islands, and that labor
must be recruited largely from the sub-tropical
countries. Portugal and Spain have been drawn
on very heavily. A few negroes from the southern
states have gone to Hawaii, but they are reluctant
to move, and the number who have made this
change is not large. Chinese labor was employed
largely until further importation of Chinese was
prohibited by law.
immigration to continental America is very
properly restricted perhaps it ought to be more re-
stricted, but the conditions on the continent are
such that labor is moderately liquid. It can and
does move from place to place as the demand for it
exists, and the country at large may be considered
fairly self-sustaining in this respect. In Hawaii,
this condition does not exist. Alien labor must be
relied on if the production Of the islands is to con-
tinue, and it seems reasonable that some provision
contract, with the rights Of the laborer, and all the
conditions properly supervised by the government.
This, it appears, is what the authorities in Hawaii
desire, and their desire appears to be eminently
sound.
