Annual reports of federal officials and commissions call attention to the workers increased purchasing power, through high wages. It is acknow- ledged that this purchasing power is one of the major factors in the nations prosperity.
 The federal reserve board, in its an nual report, says:
 "A national income larger than in 1922, arising both out of increased earnings of fac tory workers and larger proceeds from. the sale of farm products. furnished the buying power to absorb the years increased output of goods"
 In other words, but for high wages in factory, mine and transportation, and larger proceeds from the sale of farm products, the years increased output of goods would not be sold. and factories would close because of an overstocked market.
 To organized labor this is an old theory. Times without number the workers have insisted that if their buy

is exported to Europe and South Anne rica. This means that the people of the United States consumes all but a small portion of their production.
 This is possible because the Ameri- can trade union movement has insisted on high wage standards.
 There is a so-called intellectual element, in this country that is distress ed over labor's continuous fight for high wages. This element sees no diff ference between a high-wage worker and low-wage worker, and would have the former believe they are vast ing their energies.
 The organized worker rejects the so- called intellectual and this is the req son for the latter's continuous attacks on the A. F. of L. Where the intel lectuar' is welcomed, there is progress according to the intellectual

 Less consumption means a lowering of living standards, no schooling for the children and reorganization of the home because every member must become a wage earner.
 These propositions are so easily un- derstood and so vital to the countrys welfare that they should become na- tional dogmas. Every wage reducer should be held up to public scorn.
 Cheap man-power destroys the pros perity that employers are constantly striving to develop.
 Cheap production is possible through labor-saving devices, skilled manage ment and the application of science, but cheap labor is one of no benefit to either employer or to the country. This labor neither produces nor consumes.

The change began when President Harding, immediately after his election ceased all reference to his proposed Association of Nations" It was accentuated when Secretary Hughes began to show in his state utteranceS that he had abandoned his support of the League of Nations with reservations. And, finally, the ideal ganda and secret diplomacy of fnanciers was provided when Secretary Hughes later prononuncements struck at the very foundation of any conceivable associa- ton of nations

The danger comes not from the diplomats, who after all are known but from the fnanciers. who operate be- hind the scenes.
 The phrase international fnancier' seems to imply that the cosmopolitan bankers represent some form of inter nationalism. This Is the reverse of the truth. Along with certain legitimate and necessary functions the very nature of their work compels them to follow dan gerous and reactionary objectives. They seek to export capital regardless of the results on the exporting nations, regard less of the fact that such capital may be much more needed at home, regardless of the fact that the nation loses entire control over that capital over long per iods.
 "In so far as they regard themselves as pure and simple business men, the in ternational bankers do not hold them selves responsible for the political results of what they do; for the entanglement of our government to protect their rights in politically backward countries; for the fact that the transfer of American

Hodges. secretary of the Coal Miners Federation of Great Britain. Speaking before the last A. F. of L. convention the British trade unionists said:
 'The very fact that you have been able to keep wages at the maximum has made 1t pos slble for you, within the confines of your own country, to eliminate unemployment to very great extent, because your people have been able, by the fact that they have the spending power in their pockets to keep industries go- ing at their maximum capacity; while in Eng land and in Europe generally, because wages have fallen, and we have permitted them to fall unemployment has increased, Industries have languished, business has come to stand still. and the latter stage is infinitely worse tthan the first"
 The benefits of high wages are diff fused throughout the nation. The men and women who wage the fights and make the sacrifices for these standards are patriots in the true sense.
 Compared with them the Garyites and other flag wavers look ridiculous with their cheap-wage pleas.

CAPMAKERS UNION PLANS HONOR FOR
 ARTIST MEMBER
Youth in This Country But Twelve Years Already Has Display
 in Galleries.

New York, Jan. 5.-The United Cloth Hat and Cap Makers Union is planning to honor one of it's youth full members, who since comnig to America from Russia I2 years ago, has become an artist sufficiently suc- cessful to have had his etchings and drawings accepted in leading Amer ican art exhibitions of the last year.
 The artist-artisan is Elias M. Cross man, capmaker by trade and, artist by instinct, member of Local 24, C. H. and C. M U., for whom the union is planning an exhibition to which all union men are being invited. For nearly I2 years Grossman, who IS not yet 26 has helped manufacture caps by daylight while thinking, planning and studying for an artistic: career. His fellow workers are proud of him and they want to give him his first "one-man" show-not in the formal uptown galleries but in the environ ment where he worked and among his friends.
 On January Io the exhibition of Grossman's work will be opened in the building of the Reefermakers' Union, IA Second avenue. Many of his subjects depict the scenes and folk of the East Side, where he found his early inspiration on the Corner, that is, the corner of Third and Greene streets, where the capmakers tarried during lunch hour.
 The union feels most loyal toward the young artist member. It is proud of the fact that his drawings and etchings have been accepted for ex- hibition by the National Academy of Design, the Brooklyn Society of Etchers and the Pennsylvania Acad- emy of Fine Arts.
 Grossman took his first lessons in art at the Art Club of the Education al Alliance in 1913. He then attended the evening art class of Cooper Union in 1916 and three years later entered the art school of the Educational Ali ance. He was a pupil of William Auerbach Lew

MUST TAKE LEAGUE OR BE LED BY INTERNATIONAL
 FINANCE, GOMPERS DECLARES

By International Labor News Service Washington, D. C., Jan. 12-Defning the international issue as being one be- tween the League of Nations or lea que of fnanciers. Samuel Gompers in the leading article of the January issue of the official magazine, the American Federationist declares the League of Nations IS the only approach. to de mocracy among nations" Mr. Com pers finds the League also ''is the only international body in existence or seri- ously proposed that serves as a continu- ous open forum for the nations.'
 Seeing as the alternative a league of international fnanciers, whose present operations he describes ill much detail, MT. Gonpers finds that secret diplo- macy, the old order of international af- fairs, might not be particularly danger ous i'll these days of newspaper enter prise if 1t were not for the existence of these huge international interests operat- ing across national boundaries"
 Declaring that the interest of Aneri- cans i'll European affairs IS growing, MT. Gornpers states that Europe prom ises to be an overshadowing issue in 1924. Our interest changes from month to month and almost from day to day, but 1t grows; disarmament, proposed economic conferences or world court, i'll one form or another. Europe IS always before us.
 ''As long as the League of Nations or some association of nations was be- fore the country our foreign relations including economic questions and pro posed remedies against the recurrence of war-were discussed in the open. In ternational financial interests were fore ed to subordinate themselves to the dis cussion of fundamental international principles.

Tompkins, secretary of the Building Trades Council, claiming an af1lia- ton of 115,ooo building workers, said nine additional trades had signed agreements for wage of $Io.5o day for building mechanics and $8.5o for helpers. With seven trades prevl- ously settled, this makes more than half of the building trades signed up.
 The signing of agreements for the building industry will mean two years peace.

 He expects the conference to end this week.

t,6O0 on Reservation hYe Right
 Of Franchise

Billings, Mont, Oct. 23.--The vote next monthof the Indians of Mon tana--their first casting of the bal- lot--was pledged to Coolidge and Dawes, in dramatic declaration by tho venerable Chief Plentycoos of the Crow nation. at a republican meeting here last night addressed by former Governor Frank o. Low den. of Illinois. The vote of the Crows alone is about 1900 with pos sibly a lesser number of Flatheads.
 Standing on the stage of thea ter, surrounded by lesser chiefs, all in war bonnets and other regalia of rank and peering at their audience through the tribal smoked glasses, the Indians made their pledge through their aged chief.
 With the chiefs pledge went an appeal for honorable, honest cam paigning and voting, the dignity of which stirred the audience to trc- mendous enthusiasm, Chief Plenty coos said in part:
 Since l became a citizen and my people were made citizens the peo- pie of the country are wondering what we are going to do, whom we are going to vote for and if we are going to vote intelligently. We are weighing our men. and as head chief of the Crows and your neighbor, l ask that you keep whiskey away and don't go among my people and bribe them. Put 1t up to us intelli- gently, and if we realize that the man you are putting up is the right man, we will vote for him without whiskey or money. When you come to us in the next few days, tell us the truth, don't misrepresent your man, so that we whoN are new corners in suffrage can vote intelli- gently two weeks from now.
