THINGS TO COME

Britain's new understanding" with nazi Ger
many is in danger of'being disrupted by a problem
that hasn't been much publicized as yet-but will
be heard of to much larger extent in the future.
That problem is Germany,s us,arpation of trade
areas that England used to regard as almost her
exclusive province. The Reich is as aggressive in
it's commercial policy as in it's bold diplomatic and
military policies. 49, go so - '.'~A e.
AS one commentator puts it, Germany has
made no bones about her intentions of dominating
the Balkans. The Germans say they intend. to
dominate from the Baltic sea to the Black Sea.
Worse than that, from the British standpoint, they
are making serious inroads into British markets in
India, South Africa and Australia"
That has already resulted in loss of untold
thousands of pounds in foreign trade to the En-
pire. 1t seems inevitable that it will result in much
more serious losses in the future. Such countries
as Turkey Greece, Rumania and Jugoslovia used
to buy the great majority of their foreign pur-
chases from Britain Today they are buying more
and more from Germany. One reason is that in
some cases Hitler offers extremely favorable
terms And even more potent reason SSqpe SAY
lis that he also gives them to understand that If
they don't patronize him they are liable to violent
invasion.
Ango-G German trade rivalry, in view of most
experts, was of the main causes of the last
world war. Both nations attempted to camoufage
that fact, and attributed the war to various OPP
posed causes, but the statistics tell the story. And
lit is not impossible that Anglo-German trade riv-
AIRY could start the next world war.

The continued installation of machinery, some-
times called the "iron man." by industry to dis
place labor in the interest of dividends to stock
holders was criticized by James j. Davis, United
States Senator from Pennsylvania, in an address
before the annual convention of the American
Federation of Labor at Houston Texas. On this
important subject Senator Davis who was form
erly Secretary of the United States Department
of Labor said:
"The machine is both the glory and the scan
dal of age. 1t is the glory because it enables
man to create more wealth in twenty years than
the world could formerly produce in eighteen CEN
tures. 1t is the scandal because, having created
vast wealth through machine production, many
of our people are left in condition of utter desti-
tuition and deprived of the work opportunities for
self maintenance
Unemployment compensation and old age as
sistance have been provided to cushion these
shocks, but as yet these governmental aids have
proven inadequate to build strong purchasing
power.
There is something obviously and desperately
wrong about social organization which permits
factory workers to suffer at the foot of the ma
chimes which have displaced them, for farmers to
be forced relief rolls in sight of bursting gran
aries, and investors to lose the earnings of life
time in one tragic turn of the wheel of fortune "
Impressed with the Importance of shorter
hours as an element in creating employment for
those thrown out OF work by machinery, Senator
Davis referred to the establishment of the eight
hour day in the steel industry many years ago.
which he said was accomplished without reducing
the hourly wage" Now he added the workers
operating high powered machines "can produce an
abundance in the shorter-hour day. With in
creased labor and industrial efficiency, we can
shorten hours, increase wages produce more and
have more"
The shorter hour philosophy advocated by Sen
ator Davis to counteract the unemployment caused
by labor displacing machinery leads up to the pro-
posal of the American Federation of Labor that
the work week must be gradually shortened to
thirty hours as the only solvent measure to pro-
vide jobs for the unemployed, who now number
eleven million.
The shorter work week must be applied as a
step toward conquering the machine for Labor
and consequently for humanity

THE WORLDS BEST MILK

A health specialist recently pointed out that
the United States on the whole, has the best and
purest milk supply in the world. ~
A considerable part of the credit for this i'm
mensely important achievement must be given to
the large dairy marketing cooperatives of Amer
ica Part of their work has been to show farmers
how to improve both the health and productivity
of their herds-and also how to handle milk in the
safest possible manner. These lessons have been
widely followed-and our pure milk supply is the
result.

LABOR PEACE ASKED

Biloxi, Miss. (ILNS).-The National

Dor peace in the United States. A
resolution adopted by the convention
expressed "the sincere hope that labor
leaders will lend their energies to
bring their factions together and to
restore peace SO that in their united
strength they may better support a
program which will insure to every
worker a full measure of social JUS

!. COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS


The eighth annual forum on cur
rent events held by the New York
Herald Tribune had deal to say about
public health in the session just ended
but the debate was very much one
sided. Only DR.. Morris Fishbein,
editor of the Journal of the American
Medical Association, expressed him
self as satisfied with the present
status, and denounced compulsory
health insurance.
Six speakers championed one or an
other form of group medicine. w. c.
kirkpatrick, head of Group Health,
Inc, of Washington, denounced sharp
ly the District of Columbia Medical
Society for refusing to let the
surgeons of Group Health operate in
Washington hospitals. DR.. r. c.
Cabot, Emeritus Professor of Medicine
at Harvard, declared that group prac-
tice averaged rather better than
private practice.
And Josephine Roche, who for
years has played leading part in
health work, showed that acute illness
is AZ per cent and chronic illness 81
per cent higher among relief families
than among families with $4,000 a
year or more of income.
1t is a pity that the special grand
jury in Washington, which is hearing
evidence looking toward an Indictment
of the medical society of the national
capital, could not get through it's work
in time to send it's findings to the
forum. But they will come later.

Columbus was not long dead when
Francis | of France remarked that he
would like to see the clause in Adams
will which divided the New World be-
tween Spain and Portugal. In differ
ent form, the same question is up
again.
Officially, Germany has not demand
ed the colonies which were taken from
her at the close of the World War.
From a practical viewpoint, there is
no reason why she should. Those COL
onies cost Germany more money than
they gave in trade; with about 1,0O0,-
600 square miles of territory, the Ger
man population of those colonies was
between $4,000 and $4,000; and most
of these were officials and soldiers.
But while an official demand has not
been made, publicly, representations
have been so strong that the defense
minister of South Africa, Oswald Pi-
row, is in London to protest against
any deals that give the Union Of
South Africa Nazi neighbors.
What stirs South Africa most is
the chance that the Portuguese pos
sessions in that neck of woods will be
handed over to Germany as a sop
and the Portuguese provinces are
right on both flanks of the Union Of
South Africa
"We know that vast armaments are
rising on every side and that the work
of creating them employs men and
women by the millions. 1t is natural,
however, for US to conclude that such
employment is false employment, that
it builds no permanent structures and
creates no consumers goods for the
maintenance of lasting prosperity.
We know that nations guilty of these
follies inevitably face the day either
when their weapons of destruction
must be used against their neighbors
or when an unsound economy like a
house of cards will fall apart. >
Franklin d. Roosevelt, at Buenos
Aires, 1887.
