almost every conceivable obstacle has
been placed in the path of the. en-
ployer. He has been hazed by the gov
eminent. He has been bedeviled. re-
|viled. investigated. taxed. coerced. re-
pressed. and. at the same time. blamed
because he has not increased en-
ployment.
The general attitude of the govern
ment has been-and the unthinking
public has followed its lead - that
there is a way to increase employ
ment and at the same time make it
increasingly difficult if not impossible
for employers to employ. In fact the
vague notion seems to have gotten
abroad that there is some way by
which an employer can employ
people when he cannot afford to do
so, or that the government can COM
pei employers to employ people
whether or not it is profitable or pos
Sible.
If an economist should raise his
voice and say that the first thing to
do is to make increased employment
possible. and that this involves en-
couraging employers. restoring their
confidence in business conditions, and
removing obstacles from their paths
in every way possible. he would be
attacked as an enemy of the laboring
man and as a friend of the employer
or as a tool of Wall Street or as
friend of the vested interests. Did not
the mean. selfish employers cause all
our troubles and is ii not the laboring
denouncers say? The employer is get
ting just what is coming to himi This
is the popular, unthinking attitude to-
ward this problem.
People who argue thus are. in gen.
eral. labor's worst enemies. although
their chief stock-in-trade is protesta-
ton of friendship for the laborer.
The real friend of the unemployed is
the man who gives him his job-the
employer. He is the only person who
can solve the unemployment problem
and he should be helped to do it. not
hindered. Every obstacle placed in his
path. every governmental act that
has increased employers costs has
been nasty blow at the unemployed.
Inspired by cheap demagogues.
workers and the unthlnklng public
have mistaken things labeled "aid to
labor" for things that actually do
benefit labor.
In spite of all the shouting and pro-
testing and demagoguery, unemploy-
ment figures are very little below the
maximum recorded. The real eco
Monies of such questions always tell
the true story. and the shouting and
clamor and turmoil and demagoguery
finally become known for what they
are. 1t is the quack that shouts his
wares. praises his snake oil. boasts Of
his friendship for humanity. The real
physician does not shout about his
friendship. He employs scientific
remedies that restore and cure. The
lesson in this ought to be obvious.

Editorial

Mr.. Apselmo Pablo has issued invita-
tions to large number of people both in
the fowls and country dislicts TO attend
his campaign meeting in ChrisIiansteu
tomorrow night.
Mr.. Fabio is candidate for the MUM
cipal Council for the November elections
and we presuma he has much to say to
the people on this question.
In Cbristiansted town it seems that
there will be four candidates to choose
from: Mr.. Joseph Alexander, Mr.. An
selma Fabo. Mr.. Morris E. Davis and
DIR. D. C.. Canegata.
DIR. Canegata is part time Govern
ment employee but. years of squirting
torture proved that he is not a vest
pocket councilman. He has safeguarded
his manhood though the penalty was
great and. he continues TO stand firmly
for what he considers to be right. Be
cause the Doctor has been tried and has
not been found wanting we would raise
no objections against his return to the
Council.
The same csnno. be said concerning
other Government employees che same
cannot be said of any other Governme Mt
employee who has been in the Couucll.
they have all allowed themselves to be
carried in the executive vest pocket.
The man who even suggests TO fiji he
Council with must" meu is traitor to
the rest of his people.
Mr.. Alexander has lost business, lost
friends and came near losing his lite
when continental American beat him
merclessly at his office door. So great
was public indignation on that occasion
that the offender had to be carried
through the back stree;3 10 the Police
headquarters. Mr.. Alexander is ''stick
er" for native rights.
Mr.. Davis has large following. He
incurred the hatred of many who disap
proved of his methods. But, whether we
like or whether we dislike his methods he
aims to establish urity among the PEG

0NBETRAYAL
OF SPY

BALTIMORE, July 9 GN.S0.
Accused of "betraying her own
flesh and blood" Mrs. Grace Kraft
today believed she did "the right
thing" despite the scorn heaped
upon her by her mother and broth
ers and sisters for informing on
her ex-Sailor brother.
Harry T. Thompson, a former
Navy yeoman, was sentenced to
Is years Imprisonment for sell
ing Navy information to the Jap
anese. Mrs. Kraft admitted his
arrest was prompted by the in
formation she gave police here
last September when she applied
for a warrant charging him with
stealing a radio.
Mrs. Ida Thompson, 76, the
mother, said she was ordered out
of Mrs. Kraft's house when she
went there for an explanation.
She said she and her eight other
children will do all they can to
try to gain leniency for Harry.
The mother said the radio. over
which all the trouble between
Thompson and his sister was
caused, was actually owned by
Harry and not Grace.

The Nations Capital is ranked
as one of the ideal cities affording
recreational facilities in survey

The Capital has 80 municipal
recreational centers and So school
Fairgrounds. Statistics compiled
by the association showed that
$4,000 persons used the facilities
of the Capital for picnicS and out
ings last year.
District Fairgrounds Director
Sibyl Baker said one reason the

here is the vast park system and
the close cooperation of recrea-
