willing to make exceptions in emer-

Not seldom they would give us time
saving jobs tthe so-called good jobs)
when we were behind on our time
cards"
This factory was not unionized. It
was open shop Some workers were
c. I. O.'s and some A. F. of LIS, but
most of them were neither. The
G. l.. O.s were more numerous as the
education and skill of the workmen
became less. The men all hoped some
day to leave their machine work. As
Mr.. Pribichevich puts it:
MY fellow workers did not like
being laborers, but they also had no
desire to become employers. They
wanted to be on their own, neither
hiring nor firing Their attitude to-
ward life was neither proletarian nor
was it capitalist; it was typically
middle class"
This attitude, based on a confident
expectation Of self lf-betterment, is, says
Mr.. Pribichevich, the chief reason for
the failure OF the Marxist doctrine
OF class warfare in America.
WITH Japan committing economic
suicide in order to crafty her
political leaders neuroses, one might
suppose that the object lesson Of her
conduct would at least be apparent.
That it is not is borne out by another
Harper's article on the subject OF
Germany's psyehopathic ambitions.
This piece Is called What Would Ger
many Fight With" and is written by
Wilson Woodside.
Mr.. Woodside considers the four
great material essentials for war max
ing-iron, oil, rubber and cotton-and
demonstrates that Germany does not
produce her own peace-time supply of
any one Of them. and that the mar
kets from which she buys the re-
mainder of her needs are 80 situated
that. in the event of war, she could
not call on them. That done, he
takes up the question Of food and of
gold and makes similar revelations
concerning'the nations resources. He
next asks, could Germany gain control
