PAGE NINETEEN THE EVENING NEWS, HARRISBURG, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1910' Read The Ad News REAL ESTATE FOR SALE ment of a tribunal, fair and Just alike to all, which will settle industrial disputes which in the past have led to war and disaster? America, witnessing the evil consequences which have followed out of such disputes between these contending forces must not admit itself impotent to deal with these -matters by means of peaceful processes Surely there must be some method of bringing together in a council of peace and amity these two great interests, out of which will come a happier day of peace and co-operation, a day that will make them more hopeful and enthusiastic in their lUS tas-ks' thRt wi make for Comfort happiness in nd a more tolerable con- rirtMm2n8r a11 clasRes of men. Certainly human intelligence ca.n tZ aceeptable tribunal for adjusting the differences between capital and labor. i3 the hour and trial ror America. By her wand 8trensth and the indomitable courage of her soldiers, she demonstrated her Pof1 to vindicate on foreign battlefields her conceptions of iberty and Justice. Let not her inriuence as a mediator between capital and labor be weakened and her own failure to settle matters of purely domestic concern be proclaimed to the world There are those in this country who threaten direct action to force their will upon a majority.

Russia Object Lesson "Russia today with Its blood and terror, is a painful object lesson of the powefof minorities. It makes little difference what minority it is; whether capital or labor, or any other elasn; no sort of privilege will ever be permitted to dominate this country. We are a partnership or nothing that is worth while. We are a democracy, where the majority are the masters, or all the hopes and purposes of the men who founded this Government nave been defeated and forgotten. In America there is but one way by which great reforms can be accomplished and the relief sought by classes obtained, and that Is through the orderly processes of representative government Those who would propose any other method of reform are enemies of this country.

America will not be daunted by threats nor lose her composure or calmness In these distressing times. Wo can afford, in the midst of this day of passion and unrest, to bo self-contained and sure. The instrument of all reform in America is the ballot. The road to economic and social reform in America is the straight road of justice to all classes and conditions of men. Men have but to follow this road to realize the full fruition of their objects and purposes.

Let those beware who would take the shorter road of disorder and revolution. The right road is the road of Justice and orderly process." pause and consider the means ti be found to stop the spread of this contagious thing before it saps the very vitality of the nation itself. Do we gain strength by withholding the remedy Or is it not the business of the statesmen to treat these manifestations of unrest which meet us on every hand as evidences of an economic disorder and to apply constructive remedies wherever necessary, being sure that in the application of the remedy we touch not the vital tissues of our industrial and economic life? These can be no recession of the tide of unrest until constructive instrumentalities are set up to stem up that tide. Labor Not Commodity "Governments recognize the right of men collectively to bargain for humane objects that have at their base the mutual protection and welfare of those engaged in all industries. Labor must not be longer treated as a commodity.

It must be regarded as the activity of human beings, possessed of deep yearn- ings and desires. The business man gives his best thought to the repair and replenishment of his machinery, eo that its usefulness wiir not be Impaired and its power may always be at its height and kept in full vigor and motion. "No less regard ought to be paid to the human machine, which after all propels the machinery of the world and is the great dynamic force that lies back of all Industry and progress. Return to the old standards of wage and Industry in employment is unthinkable. The terrible tragedy of war which has Just ended and which has brought the world to the verge of chaos and disaster would be in vain if there should ensue a return to the conditions of the past.

Europe, itself, whence has come the unrest which now holds the world at bay, is an example of standpat-ism In these vital human matters which America might well accept as an example, not to be followed but studiously to be avoided. Europe made labor the differential, and the price of It all is enmity and antagonism and prostrated Industry. The right of labor to live in peace and comfort must be recognized by governments and America should be the first to lay the foundation stones upon which industrial peace shall be built. Adequate Wage Deserved "Lnbor not only is entitled to an adequate wage, but capital should receive a reasonable return upon its investment and is entitled to protection at the hands of the Government in every emergency. "No government worthy of the name can 'play' these elements against each other, for there is a mutuality of interest between them which the Government must seek to express and safeguard at all cost.

'The right of Individuals to strike is inviolate and ought not to be Interfered with by any process of government, but there Is a predominant right and that is the right of the Government to protect all of Its people and to assert its power and majesty against the challenge of any class. The Government, when it asserts that right, seeks not to antagonize a class but simply to defend the right of the whole people as against the irreparable -harm and injury that might be done by the attempt by any class to usurp a power that only government Itself has a right to exercise as a protection to all. Tribunal Is Suggested "In the matter of international disputes which have led to war, statesmen have sought to set up as a remedy arbitration for war. Does this not point the way for the settlement of indus-trlnl dlnputes. by the establish tagonisms, and food of radicalism.

The only way to keep men from agitating against grievances is to remove the grievance. An unwillingness even to discuss these matters produces only dissatisfaction and gives comfort to the extreme elements in our country, which endeavor to stir disturbances in order to provoke governments to embark upon a course ot retaliation and repression. The sed of revolu- tlon is repression. The remedy for these things must not be negative in character. It must be constructive.

It must comprehend the general interest. The real antidote for the unrest which manifests Kself is not suppression, but a deep consideration of the wrongs that beset our national life and the application of a remedy. Must Democratize Industry "Congress has already shown its willingness to deal with these industrial wrongs by establishing the eight-hour day as the standard in every field of labor. It has sought to find a way to prevent child labor. It has served the whole country by leading the way in developing the means of preserving and safeguarding lives and health in dangerous industries.

It must now help in the difficult task of finding a method that will bring about a genuine democratization of industry, based upon the full recognition of the right of those who work in whatever rank, to participate in some organic way In every decision which directly affects their welfare. It Is with this purpose in mind that I called a conference to meet in Washington on December 1, to consider these problems in all their broad aspects, with the idea of bringing about a better understanding between these two units. Headjustmont Compulsory "The great unrest throughout the world, out of which has emerged a demand for an immediate consideration of the difficulties between capital and labor, bids us put our own house in order. Frankly, there can be no permanent and lasting settlements between capital and labor which do not recognize the fundamental concepts for which labor has been struggling througn the years. The whole world gave its recognition and endorsement to these fundamental purposes in the League of Nations.

The statesmen gathered at Versailles recognized the fact that world stability could not be had by reverting to industrial standards and conditions against which tne average workman of the woria had revolted. It is. therefore the task qf the statesmen of this new day of change and readjustment to recognize world conditions and to seek to bring about, through legislation, conditions that will mean the ending of age-long antagonisms between capital and labor, and that will hopefully lead to the building up of a comradeship which will result not oniy in greater contentment among the mass of workmen but also bring about a greater production and a greater prosperity to business Itself. "To analyze the particulars in the demands of labor Is to admit the Justice of their complain in many matters that lie at their basis. The workman demands an adequate wage.

permit him to live in comfort, unhampered by the tear of poverty and want in his old age. He demands the right to We an the rleht to work amid sani-ry surroundings, both in home and in workshop, surroundings, that develop and do not retard his own health and well being, and the right to provide for his children's wants in the matter of health and education. In other words it is his desire to make the conditions of his life and the lives of those dear to him tolerable and easy to bear. Leajruc Holds Solution "The establishment of the principles regarding labor laid down tn the covenant of the League of Nations offers us the to industrial peace and con-clliltion. No other road lies open to us.

Not to pursue this one Is longer to invite enmities bitterness and antagonisms whlcr In the end only lead to Industrial and social disaster. The unwilling workman is not a profitable servant. An employe whose industrial life is hedged about by hard and unjust conditions, which he did not create and over which he has no control, lack That fine spirit of enthusiasm and volunteer effort for which are the necessary WfrealeTn a great producing entity. Let us Se frank about this solemn mat- evidence of world-wide which manifest ourselves the world bid us Attorney General has submitted a bill providing for an extension of this act for a period of six months. As It now stands it is limited in operation to the period of the war and becomes inoperative until the formal proclamation of peace.

It Is imperative that it should be extended at once. The Depart- ment of Justice has built up extensive machinery for the purposes of enforcing its provisions; all of which must be abandoned upon the conclusion of peace unless the provisions of this act are extended. "During this period the Congress will have an opportunity to make similar, permanent provisions and regulations with regard to all goods destined for interstate commerce and to exclude them from Interstate shipment, if the requirements of the law are not complied with. Some such regulation is imperatively necessary. The abuses that have grown up In the manipulation of prices by the withholding of foodstuffs and other necessaries of life can not otherwise be effectively prevented.

There can be no doubt of either the necessity or the legitimacy of such measures. Publicity Big Asset "As I pointed out in my last message, publicity can accomplish a great deal in this campaign. The aims of the Government must be clearly brought to the attention of the consuming public, civic organisations and state officials, who are In a position to lend their assistance to our efforts. You have made available funds with which to carry pn this campaign, but there is no provision in thn law authorizing the expenditure for the purpose of making the public fully informed about the efforts of the Government. Specific1 recommendation has been de by the Attorney General in this regard.

I would strongly urge upon its immediate adoption, as it constitutes one of the preliminary steps to this campaign. "I also renew my recommendation that the Congress pass a law regulating cold storage as it is regulated, for example by the state of New Jersey, which limit the time during which goods may be held in storage, prescribe, the method of disposing of them if kept beyond the permitted period, and require that goods released from storage shall In all cases bear the date of their receipt. It would materially add to the serviceability of the law, for the purpose we now have in view, if it were also prescribed that all goods released from Btorage for Interstate shipment should have plainly marked upon each package the selling or market price at which they went into storage. By this means the purchaser would always be able to learn what profits stood between him and the producer or the whole- sale dealer. Goods Should Ho Marked "I would also renew by recommendation that all broods destined for Interstate commerce should in every case, where their form or package makes it possible, be plainly marked with the price at which they left the hands of the producer.

"We should formulate a law requiring a federal license of all corporations engaged in Interstate commerce and embodying in the license, or in the con-' dition under which it is to be Issued, specifio regulations de- signed to secure competitive selling and prevent unconscionable profits in the method of marketing. Such a law would afford a welcome opportunity to effect other much needed reforms in the business of inter- -state shipment and in the meth- ods of corporations which are engaged in it; but for the moment I confine my recommendations to the object Immediately in hand, which is to lower the cost of living. "No one who has observed the march of events in the last year can fail to note the absolute need of a definite program to bring about an improvement in the conditions of labor. There can be no settled conditions leading to Increased production and a reduction in the cost of living if labor and capital are to be antagonists Instead of partners. Sound thinking and an honest desire to serve the interests of the whole nation, as distinguished from the interests of a class, must be applied to the solution of this great and pressing problem.

The failure of other nations to consider this matter in a vig- oroua way has produced bitter-ness and Jealousies and an NEW YORK QUOTATIONS Furnished by Chandler Bros, and 8 North Market Square, Wi Open.

The Secretary of the Interior has pointed out the way by which returning soldiers may be helped to And and take up land In the hitherto undeveloped regions of the country which the Federal Government has already prepared or can prepare for cultivation and also on many of the cut over or neglected areas which lie within the limits of the older states; and I once more take the liberty of recommending very urgently that his plans shall receive the Immediate and substantial support of "In the matter of tariff legislation I beg to call your atten- tlon to the statements contained in my last message urging legislation with reference to the establishment of the chemical and' dyestuffs Industry in America: 'Among the Industries to which special consideration should be givenf is that of the manufacture of dyestuffs and related chemicals. Our complete dependence upon German' supplies before the war made the interruption of trade a cause of exceptional economic disturbance. The close relation between the manufacture of dyestuffs, on the other hand, and of explosives and poisonous gases, on the other, moreover, has given the industry an exceptional significance and value. Although the United States will gladly and unhesitatingly Join in the program of international disarmament, It will, nevertheless, be a policy of obvious prudence to make certain of the successful maintenance of many strong and well-equipped chemical plants. The German Chemical Industry, which we will be brought into competition, was and may well be again, a thoroughly knit monopoly capable of exercising a competition of a peculiarly Insidious and dangerous kind.

Farmers Need Help "During the war the farmer performed a vital and willing service to the nation. By materially Increasing the production of his land, he supplied America and the Allies with the increased amounts of food necessary to keep their immense armies in the field. He indispensably helped to win the war. But there Is now scarcely less need of Increasing the production of food and the necessaries of life. I ask the Congress to consider means of encouraging effort along these lines.

The importance of doing everything possible to promote production along economical lines, to Improve marketing and to make rural life more attractive and healthful, Is obvious. I would urge approval of the plans already proposed to the Congress by the Secretary of Agriculture, to secure the essential facts required for the proper study of this question, through the proposed enlarged programs for farm management studies and crof estimates. "I would urge Oio, a continuance of Federal participar tlon In the building of good roads, under the terms of existing law and under the direction of present agencies; the need of furthe.1- action on the part of the States and the Federal Government to preserve and develop our forest especially through practice of better forestry methods on private holdings and the extension of the publicly owned forests; better support for country schools and the more definite direction of their courses of study along lines related to rural problems; and fuller provision for sanitation In rural districts and the building up of needed hospital and medical facilities in these localities. Perhaps the way might be cleared for many of these desirable reforms by a i fresh, comprehensive survey made of rural conditions by a conference composed of repre- sentatives of the farmers and of the agricultural agencies responsible for leadership. Unrest in Politics 'I would call your attention to the widespread condition of political restlessness In our body politic.

The causes of this unrest, while various and complicated, are superficial rather than deep-seated. Broadly, they arise from or are connected with the failure on the part of our Government to arrive speedily at a Just and permanent peace permitting return to normal conditions, from the transfusion of radical theories from seething European centers pending such, delay, from heartless profiteering resulting in the increase in the coBt of living, and lastly from the machinations of passionate and malevolent agitators. With the return to normal conditions, this unreBt will rapidly disappear, In the meantime, It does much evil. "It seems to me that In dealing with this situation Congress Bhould not be impatient or drastic, but should seek rather to remove the causes. It should endeavor to bring our country back speedily to a peace basis with ameliorated living conditions under minimum restrictions upon personal liberty that is consistent with reconstruction problems.

And it should arm the Federal Government with power to deal in its criminal courts with those who by violent methods would abrogate our time-tested institutions. Fowl Control Necessary "With the free expression of opinion and with the advocacy of orderly political change, however fundamental, there must be no interference, but towards passion and malevolence tending to incite crime and Insurrection under guise of political evolution there should be no leniency, legislation to this end has been recommenced by the Attorney General and should be enacted. In this direct connection, I would call your attention to my recommendations on August 8, pointing out legislative measures which would be effective in controlling and bringing down the present cost of living, which contributes so largely to this unrest. If the Government's campaign- is to be effective, it is necessary that the other steps suggested' should be acted on at once. "I renew and strongly urged the necessity of the extension of the present food control act to the period of time in which it shall remain in operation.
