Drive Germany to Action

Drive germany TO ACTON
TINE idea that people will remain
Il unarmed when surrounded by
armed neighbors is ridiculous. We
are all going to ride in the same
boat, whether toward peace or war.
We are all going to put our faith
in a reign of, law, or a continuance
of the old order.
BY their failure to do what they
promised; the allies virtually have
driven Germany to ask for the right
to increase her army and navy.
Though such a promise has been
written into the treaty, it was writ
ten into history by the blood of mil
lions of men who imagined they
were dying in 'a war to end war"
who were told that nothing but a
new and more permanent form of
peace could make such a sacrifice
worthwhile.
Germany is entitled to armed
equality, but the only right way
of giving it to her is through a
general and drastic reduction of
military establishments.

The MAGIC Quintet

THE medieval alchemists be-
Il lieved that everything in the
universe was composed of four ele-
ments, fire, earth, air and water.
Davis and WI pointed out that
a similar notion was held by the
Chinese, even prior to the founding
of the TaoiSt religion. This religion,
was founded by Lao Tzu, who is
supposed to have lived from GOA to
500 B. c.
According to the old Chinese idea,
the universe was compounded of five
elements. These composed the
quintet. the Chinese word for which
is "Wu-hsing." The Wu-hsing con-
sisted of water, fire, wood, gold, and
earth.
Just as in medieval alchemy. the
four elements came later to mean
elemental qualities rather than
things, so the same change took
place in Chinese thought.
Water, for example, in the Mid
die Ages, when considered as an
element, was thought of as the
quality of wetness, earth as the
quality of dryness, and so on.
A translation from the Chinese
Book of Historical Documents"
reads as follows: Water is that
which soaks and descends; fire that
which blazes and aScends: wood that
which is straight and crooked; gold
that which obeyS and changes, and
earth that which is of use for seed
sowing and harvest.
That which. soakS and descends
becomes salt; that which blazes and
ascendS becomes bitter; that which
is crooked and straight becomes
sour; that which obeys and changes
becomes acrid, and from Seed-sow-
ing and harvest comes sweetness"

Experience, however, shows that en-
durance is the test of this policy, and
for this workers are not equipped
equally with management. After
the test of strength is settled, even
| if in favor of the union, there still
remains the problem-how to make
| the changes necessary for better
ment. Conferences must be held
points of view presented, facts con-
sidered, positions harmonized and a
policy agreed to. In final analysis the
problem is one to be thought through
and the conference method is the way
to achievement.
How to establish the conference
method and make it daily practice,
is the real problem for every union.
To be able to present the workers
position in conference requires knowl-
edge of the facts, the facts of the
job from the workers point of view
and the facts of the whole industry
as related to the workers functions.
Not only must workers have these
facts, but they must know what they
ax,I L. -
them. Conferences and the exchange
of facts from another point of view
will correct inaccurate information or
misunderstanding
The power of information conse-
Grated to the advancement of human
welfare is the greatest power the
union can WELD. 1t brings confidence,
dignity and authority. To utilize this
power the union will provide its men,
bers with facts and educational liter
ature, opportunities to meet, and hear
experts in various fields. The union
can be an educational center devel-
oping it's relationships so that they
shall be ready to use opportunities
through contacts with sub-foremen,
foremen, managers and higher execu-
tives, to better balance industrial
policies and better organization of
industries. Consciousness of the
power that comes from understand
ing the situations removes the bar
riers of timidity.
The greatest power of the union
lies in being able to use facts.

AGAIN THE FOOD BUDGET

If all food budgeteers for charity
organizations were to be told to cease
and desist, the world might be better

A fresh case bobs up. The dieticiar
of the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities
calculates that $7.55 a week will feeG

13 and 5, and a girl of 10-a family

Probably the lady is correct. Per-
haps they could live and maintain
health for less in some communities
Health" has many definitions and Sc
has decency and so has comfort.
But every such calculation regis.

in terms of feeding the animals
and adds to the dirty ammunition
with which he shoots at standards of
living every time they get above the
bare subsistence level.

CAPABLE" BUSINESS
LEADERS

Thomas ]. Watson, president of the
international Business Machines Cor
poration, declares that "the business
of the country, our railroads, our in
dustrial institutions and our financial
institutions, are in capable hands,"
The capable" hands referred to
by Mr.. Watson are the officials who
manage our business concerns.
Under our industrial system, work
opportunities are owned as a private
monopoly by the men who own our
business establishments.
The workers can live only by SELL
ing their ability to produce wealth
and perform service to the work
opportunity owners.
To provide these work opportun-
tiles is the moral function of busi-
ness. During the last two and one
half years those who own and con-
troll business have refused to provide
these work opportunities for over ten
million workers, and have reduced

THE GREATER POWER

1t is easy enough to see things
that could be put upon more con-
structive basis Workers can see
many in the days work. It is not
difficult to see the more obvious
changes that should be made. But
how to do it often seems so diff
cult that things go on unchanged.
The first method that appeals to
workers who have just begun to try
to do something about their prob
lens is to use power to compel recog-
milton of their proposals. Workers
who join together in union, create
and possess power quite unlike any
thing in the experience of individual
workers. They constitute the work
force Of the plant without which the
wheels stand motionless and no prod
uct is Forthcoming.
To strike to withdraw this labor
power seems calculated to put man
agement at helpless disadvantage.

DIVIDENDS AND GLOOM

Dividends and interest paid on
July this year approximated bill
lion dollars, which is a lot of money
but less than for any year in the last
five.
Anyway, it may not be unadulter-
ated cause for gloom that less is GO
ing in that direction. The real gloom
is that more is not going into the
pockets of wage earners.
In this picture we see the certain
penalty for crazy financial structures
that only partly succeeded in their
mission before the crash came. They
were planned to produce "too much of
a good thing"

FRIDAY, JULY %, 1882
WHY NOT THE THIRTY-HOUR
WEEK NOW?

Using the figures as of March this
year general introduction of the 30
hour week would put all unemployed
Americans at work.
No other single measure will dc
that.
The more unemployment grows the
shorter must be the work-week fol-
all if all are returned to work.
Must we go to further depression
and desperation before American in
dustry and its banker bosses realize
the necessity for genuine and sweep
ing remedy?
Eight months ago a 35-hour week
would have put all back to work.
If unemployment gains just little
more it will take 25-hour week to
put all at work.
The American Federation of La
boris figures as of March are authen-
tic, based on actual statistical reports
of jobs and jobless.

America" until all Americans are at
work, and all Americans cannot be
given jobs until the work week is re-
duced so that the total amount of
work available is divided in terms of
not more than 80 hours of work per
week per worker
What delays this just and fair
arrangement? Why cannot American
employers see the necessity and do
the inevitable?
Let America go to the universal
30-hour week NOW!

GIVE US WORK

Labor is facing a situation that has
grown steadily worse week by week.
Our incomes have declined so per
cent since 1929; about eight millions
of us have no jobs; our reserves are
badly depleted; relief funds are
dwindling. While we now have as
wages only so cents where we pre-
viously had dollar, it takes 80 cents
to buy what we formerly paid a dol
lar for. Taking these things into ac-
count, our incomes are 81 per cent
below 1929.
We must have work In order to
live. We have repeatedly made the
following suggestions:
That the available work oppor-
tunities be extended to as many
as possible by a five-day week
and a shorter workday.
That the federal government
assume responsibility for provid-
ing all possible employment on
public works
That the federal government
extend credit to such industries
as can submit reasonable evil
dence of sound management and
intention of providing additional
employment.
Providing jobs for workers is the
key to our present difficulties. 1t will
take care Of relief problems and re-
store confidence. The federal govern
ment must act for general welfare
and accomplish what is being defeat
ed by conflict of the interests of va
rious different groups. The federal
government can use our national
credit to recover prosperity whereas

TEACHERS
Map National Campaign for
Membership

Chicago (ILNS)-The American
Federation of Teachers at its six
teenth annual convention, which clos
ed here last week, determined to put
into immediate effect plans for an in
tensive organization campaign. The
work will be under direction of Flor
ence Curtis Hanson, secretary treas
urer. Centers will be established in
four sections of the country, Atlanta,
San Francisco, st. Paul and Wilkes
Barre, Pa. Each will be under direc-
tion of district representative.
'The American Federation of
Teachers is convinced that the only
hope for safeguarding public educa-
tion from the onslaughts which are
being made upon it at this time lies
in the sound effective organization of
teachers into trade unions affiliated
with the American Federation of La
bor," says union statement. ut
has found that all over the country
the only support which the teachers
have received in their resistance to
salary reductions, curtailment of the
curriculum, shortening of the school
year, lengthening of the school day
increasing of the teacher load and all
those things which make for the re-
duction of costs at the price of les
sened efficiency and service to the
children, has been from organized
labor.
"The teachers of America are real
izing their responsibility in this
serious situation which jeopardizes
the future of our public schools and
are prepared to take steps to resist
those influences. The American Fed
Grafton of Teachers through the plan
which is being worked out will give
the teachers the opportunity to work
in constructive movement to save
our schools for our children"
Mrs. Hanson plans to give her time
and services throughout the nation
wherever the need seems greatest,
visiting Massachusetts first in Sep
tember upon the opening of the
schools. She will present the cause
of the teachers and public education
to the American Federation of La
! Dor at it's annual convention in Gin
cinnati in November.

stanchlessly, like blood from a mortal
wound. And there is all knowledge,
all art. There are men and women,

THE ROMANCE OF BATA

Death of Thomas Bata, Czechc
Slovakian shoe king, in an airplane
crash, has moved newspaper writers
to rhapsodize about the romance OF
his business life.
Born the son of a poor cobbler
Bata rose like rocket. His big move
was to come to America, learn ma
chine shoe production and then to take
American machinery to his home land
where he added low wages to almost
automatic production, exporting to
the United States shoes made on
American lasts at wages that Amer
leans could not and would not meet
That is what lot of newspapers
call romance.

must concentrate on avoiding bank
ruptcy in their own domains.
To put people back to work means
the creation of wealth. Unemploy-
ment and idle machinery means loss
of credit and shrinkage in values or

will create the basis for raw credit.
There will be no more need to rescue
banks. Give us work and through the

structure will flow plenty for ALL
