4 Public Duty

lTlHE Denver Times. speaking Of the visit of HAS.
FORD MAcNDER, national commander Of the Ameri.
can Legion, has furnished an additional excellent
reason for membership in the Legion that may be
read probably by those who have not yet come for
ward in the present membership drive and enrolled
under the Legion banner. The Times says:
"HANroRD MAcNDER, national head OF the Ameri.
can Legion conferred a service upon the eIsoldier
during his recent visit here when he made it plain
that buddy and bonus are Synonyms.
"'When the public hears of the American Legion
it thinks of the bonus BILL he said. 1T forgets the
other work OF the Legion in making the road for
the sick veteran easier. The bonus bill is in the
hands of our jury now. We have been assured that
lit will pass. The American Legion never has lost
any legislation it has attempted
The American Legion is bigger than any bonus
bill and the sum total OF its activities includes the
|exertion of every energy Ind influence to improve
The lot of the ex service men. particularly for those
broken in body or health.
"The Legion thus far in its brief existence has
benefited from sane and intelligent leadership.
Without the backing Of the Legion it is hard to tell
in what condition the exservice man would find
of veterans of the late war is a power in America
and will continue TO be so, and as long as its pur.
poses are TO protect the ex.service man and see that
the nation accords him the consideration he has
earned it will be a power for good.
"The visit of the national leader should have n
stimulating effect upon local posts and instill in
the membership of the Legion a yet stronger desire
to make it of service to the disabled veteran. Our
chief duty declared Commander MAcNDER, lis to
our disabled brothers in arms. We must see that
they are taken care of and we must see that they
get all that they need But this duty is not lin
tied to the men who fought with them side by side.
1t is n public duty, shared by all alike and p%articu-
larry obligatory, it seems to us. on those who can
not claim camp comradeship with them, but who,
nevertheless, are their chief benefciaries.'

The Danger Ahead

DECLARING that "there arc doctrines abroad in
~ the land which, if not controverted and over
come, may lead to the fall of this great country as
the countries of the past have fallen" Col. THEODORE
ROOSEVELT, assistant secretary of the navy, pointed
the finger of warning at American economic strife
in his address at the concluding exercises of the
5Sth annual convention of the Grand Lodge of Elks,
AT Atlantic City.
Il am going to point out to you certain matters
that must be taken in hand if our country is to make
its march of progress" he declared, Il am not going
to try to make you cheer; 1 am going to try to make
you think.
Were / to tell you that I thought all things were
running smoothly and that 1 saw for our country
n course lying clear before you across a calm sea,
I would be telling a deliberate lie.
Il know not who was to blanc, whether EN-.
ployer or employe-but if our country is to stand
we must mete out justice regardless of the afflia
lions. On the law depends our society. without
law, our civilization crumbles."
There is no excuse for breaking laws. Neverthe
less, we seem to be increasingly lawless; We seem
bent on destroying the structure we have builded.'

policy that the efficiency of American labor is great
er than that { H-y other country, and this should
be take -lD gSlsiderati -. In a measure that is
no doubt true, although with respect to the textile
industry it can hardly be said that the American
operative can turn out a greater amount in a day
than can the English or German workman. In fact,
in the New England mills a large proportion Of the
workmen are English. But granting the contention,
the efficiency of the American workman is not by
any means great enough to Offset the difference in
cost of production of a given quantity Of output,
while the Americans standard of living, which he
demands, and which we would not have lowered, is
far and away superior to that of any of the others.

viii They Be Goodo

SOME TIME ago the suez Canal company issued
regulations which had the effect of practically
banning American oil tankers from.the canal. Pro
test on the part of American interests followed
speedily, for If the original regulation had been
.rmitte to stand nearly 1000, 900 tons of American
tankers would have been barred from the use of the
Suez. This would have applied to the United States
Shipping Boards tankers, privately owned and
naval vessels. The shipping board got busy. It was
suggested by government officials in Washington
that if the discrimination were allowed TO stand this
country would retaliate through its control of the
Panama Canal. Did that work? Raw-ther! as the
British would say. The Suez company has prom
ised the American Bureau of Shipping that it will
change its regulations to admit tankers classified
Aby the United States organization. In shipping. as
well as in tariff matters, the nations of Europe are
going to find that it will not pay to pick on Unce
Sam. He can do some retaliating of his own, il he
is driven to it. But If the Democrats were per
mitted to remove all our levers. or If Democratic
control of the government would re-establish the
policy of surrender which characterized the wrsoN
regime, We would soon be in a bad way.

Don't Shift, Reduce

THE SUGGESTION that is frequently advanced
l. for reducing the growing tax burden is to SHIFT
the load from one class of taxpayers to another.
No relief would be thus secured. Relieving the
farmer or the workman Or the average citizen of
tax payments and adding the amount to industries
or those having large incomes would simply mean
that the money to raise these tax payments would
be shifted back to the individual through increased
cost of everything he purchased, thus showing the
cost of living up another notch.
The program of taxing invested or accumulated
capital to the point of confscation will in a short
time reduce this source of taxable wealth to the
point where it can no longer pay the taxes required.
Then the burden of taxation falls back automatical.
|ly on the small taxpayer.
Shifting the load will only aggravate the situa.
ton The one remedy is to bring about a reduction
in taxation demands and increase efficiency in gov.
ernmental management and expenditure of pusIic
funds.

Wages in Cotton Textiles

INVESTIGATION was recently made covering
L wages and hours of employment in 81 northern
and % southern cotton mills, employing an aggre-
gate of about 10000 persons. This survey showed
that the average wages of all classes of wage earn
ers before the reduction which started the strike in
the New England mills, ranged from 100 to 13S per
cent above the level of July, 1914, according to the
National Industrial Conference Board.
The average hourly earnings of all wage earners
in northern mills on January 1 stood at 13S per
cent above the July, 1914, level, while the average
weekly earnings were 100 per cent above the 1914
level. In the southern mills hourly earnings showed
an increase of 126, and weekly earnings, 13 per
cent above 1914. While there have been some reduc-
.tions in the northern mills, it is safe to say that
I wages at present are from so to 100 per cent above
what they were in 1914, as a whole, There have
also been some increases in wages in Europe and the
Orient, but the tendency in those countries is for
reductions relatively greater than in this country.
The information is pertinent as showing one of
the chief reasons for tariff protection on cotton
goods, and what may be said of the cotton textile
industry applies TO all others with equal force. Let
us say, for instance, that the average daily wage
of a cotton mill operative in 1914 was, in this coun-
try, 500; in England, $1.O0; in Germany, 90 cents,
and in Japan, 10 cents. The assumed figures are
not far out of the way. And let us assume that in
the United States that year the labor cost of pro-
ducing a given quantity of cloth was $4,000. Then
in England it would have been $4,000; in Germany,
$4,000, and in Japan, $500.
Again let us assume that wages have risen 100
per cent in each of the four countries under discus
sion. Then the labor cost of producing that same
quantity of cloth would in this country today be
$4,000; in England, 10000; in Germany, 2,0oo.
in Japan. $1,000.
We therefore find that in 1914. the American
manufacturer was at a disadvantage in the labor
cost of producing that cloth of $4,000 with Eng
land, $4,000 with Germany, and $1Sy500 with Japan.
Surely protection was justified under such condi-
lions.
But today, the American manufacturer is at n
disadvantage with respect to the labor cost of pro
duction of that same quantity of cloth of $50, 1000 as
compared with England, $4,000 with Germany. and
$4,000 with Japan. How much greater therefore, is
7ihc justification for a protective tariff in 1922 than
in 1911.

The Rising Tide

DOR THE YEAR 1917, previous to the coming of
L ROBERT D. CAREY to the governorship of Wyoming
appropriations for state expenses totaled 81 100000.
With the coming of CAREY in 1919 the cost of state
government increased right off the bat TO s2,9S9,OO0
while in 1921. two years of CAREY management, n
further increase TO $3,2S5, 900 was found necessary
10 pay the states bills. Here is a net increase of
S1,595,O00 for the CAREY lax boosters and CAREY
spendthrifts to explain to the people who dig up
the money.
We received nothing for the more than a million
and a half that we did not get before.
Is it about time that such a person as JOHN
HAY should rise up 10 demand stoppage of this
criminal waste of the peoples money?
Let the CAREY onlce-holders and hangers'on bawl
about brass tacks" and Eventually" but it is all
go evident that these people are not so much In
terested in saving a dollar for the tax burdened citi-
zen of Wyoming as they are interested in their
strangleLold on the public teat.
CAREY and his horde of ofice'holders have yet to
show the slightest inclination to cut state expenses.
Their efforts have been entirely directed to Great
ing revenue out of the people. Their slogan has
been "The more we get the more we have to spend
Do the people of Wyoming agree with any such
policy?
