HAS Plan TO
END IDLENESS
Samuel Gompers Suggests Use
Of Public Credit for Pub
lie Purposes.
''PRORLEN MUST Be SOLVED"
President of American Federation Of
Labor Says cycIieaI Unemployment
ls Social Crime Of Highest Order
How 1t Can Be Eliminated.

A program to solve the problem of
seasonal and cyclical unemployment
has been put forward by Samuel Comp
ers, president of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, as labor's contribution
to the efforts begun at the unemploy-
ment conference 1t is based largely
on the suggested use of public credit
for public purposes, inasmuch as Mr..
Gompers believes it would be difficult,
even If subsidies were permissible, to
set the wheels of private industry GO
ing in hard times.
"On the other hand, in countries
like Great Britain and the United
States, where the public credit is ex-
cellent, there is no practicable obstacle
whatever to the undertaking during
hard times of public enterprises of
a productive character on a sufficient
scale to stimulate all industry and
reduce cyclical unemployment to a
mere fraction of what it is today"
he says.
1.-The problem of unemployment can
be solved" he says. Seasonal unem-
ployrhent can be almost eliminated.
Cyclical unemployment is a social
crime Of the highest order, and no so
ciety which permits it to continue can
expect to survive. The question is no
longer open to debate. The problem
Of unemployment must be solved.
There is no alternative.
Labor lays down it's proposals. 1t
supports every constructive move, no
matter where or by whom initiated.
1t brings forward, in addition to those
moves, a program of proposals which
will clear away the social waste and
wreckage caused by unemployment
and put the nation ON the road to full
and final remedy.
'These proposals are before Ameri-
ca. Labor demands that the problem
be attacked with full vigor and de-
termination, with fear1essness and an
eye single to solution with justice"
Mr.. Gompers suggests the use of
public credits for land reclamation,
water-power conservation, inland wa
terways, public highways, forestry,
housing and railroads.

By EDwARp ". PlcKARp

a LII Europe and in a lesser degree
all America is interested in the
selection of a pope to succeed Bene-
dict XIV. The sacred college has been
summoned to meet on February 2 for
this purpose and the cardinals are
all hurrying to Rome. Those from
the United States and Canada cannot
reach the Eternal city in time for the
opening of the cOnclave unless it is
postponed, and may be too late even
TO participate in the election. This,
however, is unlikely, since the cam
paign, if one may so term it, Is be-
coming so complicated that the choice
of pope may be delayed. According
to Italian correspondents, the main
issue is again what is called the
Roman questionable question of re-
latiOns between the Vatican and the
Quirinal. The Italian cardinals, who
are in the majority in the sacred col
lege, are divided into two camps on
this matter, some supporting the poll
cies of Plus x, who favored a strong
church Independent of the Italian
states, and some standing for Bene-
diets measures of rapprochement
with the Italian government, leading
up to final reconciliation. In the for
mer group the leading candidates are
Cardinals BOggiani, Merry del Val and
laurent; in the latter, Cardinals Gas
parri, Maffi, Ratti and Vanutelli.
Cardinal La Fontaine of Venice had
been classed with the Plus group, but
1t is said Pope Benedict's dying wish
was that he be elected. The Italian
government is supporting the candi-
dacy of Mafh because of his strong
nationalistic tendencies.
Though It is believed Cardinal Mer-
cier, the hero of Belgium, will receive
a large vote on the first ballot. 1t is
generally conceded that no non-Italian
can be elected. However, foreign ma
tions are concerning themselves great
" in the affair and the international
jealousies and suspicious generated |
by the World war are playing an i'm |
portant part. France does not de- |
sire that relations between the Vati- |
can and the Quirinal shall be re-
stored, fearing she would lose the ad-
vantage she now holds as the strongest
Catholic power. Belgium and Poland
will vote as does France. Some of
the italian cardinals were quite sym
pathetic toward the central powers
during the war and there was a rumor
that they might combine with those
from certain other countries to elect
q pro-German.
