Every trade unionist ought to be
able to see that it is the easiest, the
simplest way of promoting his own
interests, and, seeing the truth of the
situation, he should be more than
willing to act accordingly.

THE SUBSTANCE OF SELF
HELP
A paternalistic government is not
desirable in America. Business men
talk against it and labor unions of
the American Federation of Labor
group fight against it.
Some of them may want public
ownership of public utilities under a
democratic rather than a bureaucratic
management to protect them in their
opportunities for success in the field
of industry.
Some business men who talk loudly
against paternalism depend on gov
ernment to protect them under some
form of subsidy or tariff. They'll
take that SO long as government does
not itself go into private business.
Some of them, too, want to be god
fathers to their employees. Rather
than encourage the working people to
do things for themselves they try to
do for them what parent does for
his children They have been making
all the rules and regulations and
bending everything in their own favor
for such long time that they do not
SAVIOR the idea Of permitting their
employees to work out their. own des-
tiny in their own way, without having
something to say about it.
This is evidenced by their company
"union," their welfare programs. old
age pensions, insurance plans and
other paternalistic schemes, in which
they deny their employees the oppor-
tunity for self help.
The great virtue in the trade unions
lies in the fact that they teach the
workers how they can help them
selves. They develop self reliance
| They enable the workers to do things
collectively that they cannot do very
we'll alone.
The workers in their own managed
unions are providing for old age pen
sions, sick, accident and death bene-
| fits. Through their unions the work
ers are insisting that they be given a
| wage sufficient to provide for their
own welfare divorced from patronage
and supervision of their employers.
Isn't that really the American way
Any agency that teaches folks to dc
things for themselves rather than tc
have things done for them, helps to
make better and more useful citizens
of us all.

WISDOM

is to create a rapid accumulation Of
property in the hands of the few, and

cred that political and religious free
dom were not sufficient to protect all
of his interests.
To these two priceless blessings it
was necessary to add another-the
right to industrial liberty, the right
to say how, when and under what
conditions one man should work as
the employe of another. This last
great important right the labor move
ment has won without the frightful
carnage of the battlefield.

THE BEST TIME TO ORGANIZE
The time to organize is all the time,
but the best time to organize is dur
ing period Of industrial depression.
1t is comparatively an easy matter to
maintain union wages and even get
an increase occasionally when busi-
ness Ms booming and when skilled
workmen are steadily employed. The
wage cuts come when there is slump
in business. Unorganized workmen
look upon this as matter of course.
1t is only the we'll organized trades
that successfully resist wage reduc-
tions and actually secure an increase
when considerable idleness prevails.
j. There is no sense in man selling
his labor at a low price when he can
get a higher price, and he always
gets higher price when his trade is
fairly well organized. Look at the
local building trades. They are ever
lastingly and eternally organizing
The result is, they never go back
ward in their wage scale On the
other hand, some of the shop crafts
are drawing little more than is paid
common labor. The most glaring ex-
ample of this condition is the machin-
lists. Here we find the highest skilled
mechanics, men above the average in
intelligence, the lowest paid of any of
the skilled crafts.
And why? Because of the lack of
organization. The hodcarrier and
common laborer can see the benefits
of organization and they organize.
About 80 per cent of the machinists,
while they can see as far as the hod
carrier or the common laborer, they
seem to like to let George do it for
them. In the meantime they cast
hungry and longing glances at the fat
pay envelopes of the higher paid
crafts. Some day the machinists are
going to wake up to their opportuni-
ties, with ambition enough to GO
after what is coming to them.
The most important work of ALL
the unions of Hamilton at this time
is that of organizing the unorganized
workmen, and constant propaganda in
behalf of the purchase of union label
ed products.

LOST CITY AS STAGE
OF HISTORY PAGEANT
Early Days of Southern Nevada to
Be Depicted on Ground Made
Memorable.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ST. THOMAS, New, May 23.-Be-
fore numerous railroad, church and
public officials, the history of south
ern Nevada will be enacted tonight
at Pueblo Grande de Nevada, the ia
nous lost city, which was the scene
of recent archeologist finds dating
back 5000 years or more.
The lost city itself will form the
stage for the pageant, which will take
up the lives of the earliest residents
of this State. Under the direction of
NJ. 3. Harrington, representing the
Museum. of. the. American :. Indian,
Heye Foundation of New York, the
lives of the original inhabitants of
the Pueblo will be portrayed by Zuni
Indians brought from Mexico for the
pageant. The retreat of the Pueblo
Indians further south when the first
Pah Ute tribes arrived on the scene
also will be enacted, as will the COM
ing of the Spaniard explorers and the
arrival of Jedediah Smith in 1927.
Following this arrival of the Mormons
will be portrayed, scenes will be

CUTS IN GERMAN
PROPOSED
GraduaI Lowering of Rate on
Autos Among Changes
Suggested by Berlin.

New German tariff proposals are
Icing put out with the informal but
official statement of that government
that the provisional rates are oil sub
ject to alteration by international
bargaining.
Commerce Department officials yes
terday gave out a summary of changes
proposed, which indicate that in sew
eral respects the difficulties anticipat-
ed for American producers may be less
than has been supposed.
In one particular, as to automotive
vehicles, the rates are being laid out
with the intent of reducing them ma
1926. They indicate that the duty on
automobiles will be practically pro-
hibitive in it's inception, amounting to
250 marks per 100 kilos. This would
mean approximately S215 per 200
pounds of weight, but on July /, 1926,
the reductions would begin to go into
effect and the rate would become
215 marks per 100 kilos and by July l,
1928, 1t would have diminished to 10
marks
The new rates on foodstuftS would
be practically equivalent to those
maintained by the old German Empire
prior to 1914. Increases on raw SILK
and artificial silk are also particularly
heavy. Rates will be higher when the
material is more completely manutac-
tured.

creaSeS, the German government mas
emphasized it's unfavorable trade bal
ance in recent months.

Ii is no secret that there are in this
country quite a number OF people who
since the opening of the Panama Canal
have been imbued with the desirability

United States to purchase in 1917 the
Virgin Islands from Denmark for the
sum of $25, geo, 900, aud that has led on
several occasions, to a discussion or the
possibility of acquiring from France her
Guadalupe group of large and small

800 square miles, the Island of Martini
que with its 400 square miles, and
French Guiana with its 81, 900 square
miles on the northeast coast OF South
America. They are a source Of expense

All state departments, now located

Bank of North Dakota building, ac-
cording to plans Of the state indus
trial commission, which yesterday
authorized the purchase of the build
ing by the state from the Missouri
Valley Motor company for $65,000.
Formal transfer of the building
will not be made until July l, but the
state now holds lease on the pro-
perty and will go ahead with plans
for remodeling. Architects and en-
gineers will start Immediately to
draw plans for making the structure

building, putting in an elevator and
making available all the building for
office purposes. The basement can
be utilized as we'll as quarters now
used by other tenants in the build
ing.
Business men of Bismarck declare
that the state made an excellent deal
when it bought the building for $685..
900. The structure is fireproof and
can be made into an up-to-date and
model office building with very little
expense. More room is needed to
house state departments and it was
only question of time until the
state would have been forced ia
erect or purchase building.
Under the plans for purchase OF
the building, the Bank of North Da-
kota will buy and hold title to the
property. C. R. Green, manager of
the bank, said today that the banj
has the cash on hand now. to make
the purchase.

LUTHER rule
TO CONTINUE
Germany's Foreign Policy
Will Not Be Changed
(By The Associated press>


Berlin, April 29.-Germany's for
eign policy will not be changed, DR..
Hans Luther, the German Chancel-
lor declared emphatically today in
an address before the annual con-
gress of the League for German In
dustry and Commerce.
This declaration is understood to
reflect also the viewpoint of pres
ident-elect Won Hindenburg, with
whom the Chancellor conferred yes
terday.
While DR.. Luther did not refer
to the recent election, it is gener-
ally understood he spoke with the
full authority of Hindenburg and
the group promoting the Field Mar
shalls candidacy.
The German cabinet held meet
ing last night and, after listening
to report by Chancellor Luther on
his conference with President-elect
Won Hindenburg, agreed unanimous
ly to remain in office. This deci-
sion was arrived at on the ground
that there was nothing in the Ger
man constitution which required the
resignation of the cabinet on the
occasion of an election of a new
president.
DR.. Luther carried the German
governments official greetings and
fluctuations to Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg, who was visiting at
Gross Schwuelper.
