Written special ror the News by
Samuel Gompers, President American
Federation of Labor
Washington, D. c., Feb. III have
been asked to set forth in very limit
ed space some expression regarding
the relation between industrial wage
earners and farmers and also in re-
lation to the future of American labor
in politics. Both are exceedingly i'm
portant subjects.
Antagonists of all workers seek to
convince both farmers and city work
ers that their interests are antagon-
istic Labor believes that farmers
and city workers, both being produc-
ers of the necessaries and the COM
forts Of life, are entitled to reward
which is not only an adequate return
for their labor but which enables
them to live in accordance with Am
erican standards.
The factor that makes city products
cost more than they ought to cost In
the country and that makes country
products cost more than they ought
to cost in the city is the collection Of
middlemen who stand between city
and country producers and who add
nothing of value either in production
or distribution.
Wall Streets Wish.
Wall Street would like to have far
mers and city workers look at each
other and not see what stands be-
tween. When they look at each other
the ought to see what stands between
them robbing both. When they do
that they inevitably realize their
ground of action and their need for
friendly understanding and coopera-
tive relationship.

Farmers and Union abor
Should Look at Each Other
And See Seat of Troubles

the United States has a unity of in
terest with every other useful, pro-
ductive person in the United States.
If we could get rid of those who
exist mainly to exploit we should
have much less troubles than we nov
have, the wheels Of production on The
farm and in the city would run much
more smoothly, there would be much
more production in both places and
the producers would be much more
adequately rewarded.
1t is necessary at this time to say
but little regarding American labor
in politics. American labor in poll
tics is much like American farmers
in politics as recent events have
proved. American labor and Ameri-
can farmers getting together in poll
tics merely means that the rank and
file Of American citizenship is getting
tired Of government by politicians,
and particularly Of government by
stand-pat and reactionary politicians,
and is determined to bring about gov.
eminent in the interests Of the peo-
pie. We believe thoroughly In Lin
coins idea In that respect.
What Both Want.
Wage earners and farmers alike are
tired of subsidies and tariffs and spe-
cial privileges designed to enrich spe-
cial interests and believe It is time
that government began to take ac-
count Of humanity instead Of dollars.
American labor proposes to use the
political machinery of the United
States t othat end, and it proposes to
cooperate to the fullest extent with
the farmers of our country. We do
not propose to dissipate our energy
in any forlorn third party hope, out
we propose to make our energy count
in every section of the United States
in the interest Of humanity and in the
interest Of a government that will
consider humanity.
