When the allies decided to create

the Russian bear and defeated Ger
many from uniting, Lithuania was
created as q buffer state. Even when
subjects Of the Gear. the Let's had
been good cooperators, but now that
they have been allowed to develop
their own movement according to
their own national customs, they have
achieved remarkable results. Between
January and November of this year,
for example, the number of societies
increased from !, 900 to 800. Peoples
banks accounted for one-third of the
increase. with farm, societies and coa-
sulners' co-ops also recording lusty
gains. The cooperative movement has
been given the formal approval Of
the government, and looks forward
eagerly to new trfumphs in the new

The truism, that we receive in re-
turn the equivalent for what we give,
applies with IS much force TO our
political As to our trade union ac-
tivities. II We elect incompetents to
the Legislature OF to the governors
office, we must expect incompetent
service. Il we elect individuals who
are indifferent, or who are hostile
to the principles Of trade unionism,
then We must expect Indifference and
hostility from public officials. Il we
elect those who are the representa-
tives Of or sympathizers with the
antftrade union employers Of the
state, then we must expect to meet
with their active opposition. As in
al other human activities, We win
only get out Of the Legislature and
the governors office what we put
into them.
There still remains within our ranks
goodly portion Of partison political
loyalty. Political principles and poll
cies are so strongly united with par
tisan politics in so many mems minds
that It is difficult for them to dis
sociate themselves from that spirit Of
political partisan loyalty which poli-
teal leaders always try to develop
among their followers.
The thought is impressed upon
mems minds that the all-important
question Is the victory Of the political
party. rather than the character Of
the man who win be elected to public
office. There Il : measure of truth

Of much greater importance and in

Platforms and political policies are

tirely different matter, and their APP
plication.s which Is the all important
matter, depends not upon a political
party's platform and It's promises, but
upon the type of men who are elected.
II is the knowledge of these facts,
connected with other considerations Of
vital character, which led the Am
erican trade union movement many
years ago under the guidance of the
American Federation Of Labor to de-
clare for a non-partisan political pol
icy. Wherever this policy has been
actively and vigorously applied the
most beneficial results have followed.
It is this indifference or this blind
devotion to partisan politics which
has prevented much greater progress.
