Lansing's Takers
Sabotage Meeting
For June Convention


LANSING, Mich, April 30.-Edgar
Owens, District Organizer of the
Workers Party, spoke here recently
on the Farmer-Labor convention to
be held at st. Paul on June nth. He
had a fairly large audience consider
ing the handicaps under which they
had been assembled.
Early in the month a committee
from the Lansing local Of the Work
ers Party succeeded in gaining entry
to the Trades and Labor Council. The
workers attempted to get the support
of the Council for the June 18th Con-
vention. They were told to arrange a
date for the hall and bring an able
speaker and that the Council would
cooperate in securing good attend
ance.
The meeting was arranged and
George Allen, editor of the Lansing
Industrial News" agreed to assist in
publicity by advertising and personal
soliciting of trade union members.
While processing friendship, Allen,
who belongs to the Labor Council
proved himself utterly contemplate.
He not only failed to give any notice
to the meeting in his press but he
was largely responsible for Council
members turning away, by denying
the meeting to many interested work
ers who wanted to attend. In spite
of this sabotage Owens had an en-
thusiastic audience.

WASTED IN WORLD
WAR,SAY BANKERS
Allies Cost Twice That
OF Germans
BY LELAND oLDs,


The total cost Of the war to all ma
lions, expressed in 1913 dollars,
amounted to the huge total of $780,
CSC, 900, 600 according to an analysis
prepared for the Bankers Trust of New
York by H. e. Fisk This represents,
says Fisk, the value in gold of goods
unproftably consumed during four
and a half years of insensate strife.
1t is sheer waste equivalent to all the
wealth accumulated by the people of
France and Italy combined in the
course of centuries. It exceeds by so
per cent the total cost of the govern
ment of Great Britain from 1858 to
1914.
The enormity of the total impresses
the Bankers Trust statistician, but he
fails to point out the extraordinary
fact that the debt burden assumed by
the common people as a result of the
war amounts to five times as much.
The infiammatory method of financing
the war adopted by the financiers left
the population in debt to the wealthy
classes to the tune of approximately
S412, 000, 900, 900.
The burden of this debt will stead
lily increase as prices slowly approach
the prewar level. thereby increasing
the amount of labor which the work
ers must exchange for each dollar
that they use in paying the interest
and principal Of the debt. In the
course of the generations which will
be required to pay it off the owning
class will receive in interest and prin-
cipal many times the value of the
goods and services utilized in the war.
More Than EngIand's Wealth.
The $SO,6SO,OOO,OO which the war
would actually have cost if the gov
ernments had controlled the rapacity
of the financial oligarchies, represents
colossal waste which is emphasized by
Fisk in the statement that it exceeds
by $10,OO00 100000 the entire wealth OF
the people of Great Britain in 1914
including the railways. the docks, the
shipping traversing every sea, the en-.
tire navy, the great factories, the coal
tin and iron mines, in short all the
property of every kind in England
Wales, Scotland and Ireland. If all this
wealth had been suddenly destroyed
in 1914 the loss would have been $40.
900, 100000 short of the waste due Ii
the war. He continues:
Coming home for final compari

y. S. Fights Labor
In Porto Rico For
Capitalist Exploiters

WASHINGTON, April 30-Santiago
Iglesias, president of the Porto Rican
Federation of Labor and Socialist
senator in the island legislature, is
leading the struggle begun by his own
party and by the rank and file of the
Republican party of Porto Rico,
against the attempt of Sen. Tous Soto.
leader of the Republicans. to throw
that party into an alliance with the
Unionist party to control island pol.
itics and to destroy the labor move
ment. Editorials from Republican
papers in San Juan, reaching here
show that the alarm raised against
Iglesias by Tous Soto and Senator
Barcelo, leader of the Unionists. has
failed to stampede the public.
The first purpose of the Barcelo.
Tous Soto alliance is to secure from
Congress bill limiting the franchise
in the island, thereby cutting off a
large part of the votes which repres.
ent labor. Senator Willis of Ohio is
chairman of a subcommittee Of the
senate committee on insular affairs
which has been asked to report bin
enabling Porto Rico to elect its own
governor. The sugar. coffee and tobac
GO companies and the bankers con
trolling American ownership of the
industrial life Of the island, are CO
operating with Secretary Of War
Weeks in this attempt to eliminate
the Socialist party and the labor
unions at one stroke.
Iglesias, in an appeal to the Amer
lean Federation of Labor for help
says that over 10000 fraudulent reg
istrations for the next election have
already been discovered.

NEW YORK CITY, April 30.-Mat4
thew Vol, Vice President OF the
American Federation of Labor and
head Of the hoto-Engravers' Union,
speaking before the convention Of the
National Civic Federation here on the
subject, as There Need for An Amer
lean Labor Party?" declared whether
or not there was formed an American
Farmer-Labor Party would depend
upon the attitude taken by the two
old parties.
Woll said that if the two old parties
continue to help business and neglect
the workers and farmers, it would no.
only create third party of farmers
and workers but would wreck one Of
the old parties.
Apparently so naive that he mag
ines the old parties can serve the
workers and farmers. Vol fastened
to reassure his cohorts in the Nation
al Civic Federation that in his opinion
the old parties could forestall the Gre
alton Of third party by repeating the
Esch- Cummins law, or changing it so
that railway workers can adjust their
wages and working conditions by vol
untary action. If this is done the de-
mand for parliamentary action will
cease, according to Mr.. Vol.
