Production, then, not distribution, is the great scheme of American life as the economists and capitalist sees it. Blanshard, who this summer tra veled around the world third class for $1000, insists that what the country needs is a living wage, with a bet minimum, for those who work; the nearest approach to this having come from the trade union movement. Also there is a need for a whittling down, or taking away of the money that is on top. This has so far been best brought about by means of income and inherit ances taxes, though not yet carried far. Workopia is an outcome of the clash between the modern machine and the laborer who enjoys none of the benefits of the increased pro duction. A remedy for this he sees in an increase in production to such a point that all the work now done in one day can be done in four or five hours, thus giving the laborer the extra hours to educate himself and have some leisure and recrea tion. This is the greatest industrial dream, an ideal. The common, la borer’s stupidity is no fault of his own. Blanshard said in this con nection, but is fostered by his me chanical endeavors of feeding the “mile-a-minute” mechanism. Poweropia—more power for the laborer who now must dance to the music of the moneyed man—would 6ounteract this labor present sys tem which is fundamentally auto cratic, despite American’s lauding the situation as democratic. It is unjust, the speaker exorted, to make a man invest his life, or the better part of it, in an industry which gives him not the (slightest phase of control. Labor should not be a commodity bought and sold as a bar of soap. The laborer’s citizenship in indus try could be brought about, in the beginning at least, through the cre ation of an impartial judge to ar bitrate the disputes—even in the small matter of firing a single man —between the laborers and the em ployers. For labor, he asserts, should and must have the preroga tive of protecting itself against dis charge to secure social justice. Y.W. Group Will Hear Discussion Of Youth Movement I n China The “Youth Movement in China” will be discussed at a meeting spon sored by the Y. W. C. A. World Fel lowship discussion group Thursday evening from 7:30 to 8:30 at the Bungalow. This will be the second of a series of meetings in which de velopments of the movement in dif ferent countries will be studied. Ben Chai, of Pekin, China, a ma jor in botany at the University, and a former student of Tsing Sun Col lege at Pekin, will discuss the im portance of the student movement in China. He will also explain how recent outbreaks in that country have influenced the development of the movement there. Ta Lee, a student in the business administration department here, who attended a preparatory school in Honan, China, will describe stu dents and student life in his native country. Hung Fai Chung is in charge of plans for the evening, and Jackson Lui, another Chinese stu dent, will conduct an open forum which will take up about 15 minutes time. This meeting was origijnaUy 'scheduled for February 11 but was postponed because of conflicting events. Anyone interested in the question is invited to attend. Dr. Bates and Wife Have Reviews Printed Two reviews in the February 6 edition of the Saturday Review, which are printed side by side, one by Ernest Sutherland Bates, form er professor of philsophy and lit erature at the University of Ore gon, and the other by his wife, Gladys Chandler Graham Bates, are attracting attention on the campus.

Bernard Shaw in a review says of it, “The author shows great quali ties for writing for the stage, some of the highest in fact. One (scene in the play is one of the best I have ever read, it is truly a stroke of genius.” Several other new books have been added to the library collec tion. “Soundings,” by Hamilton Gibbs; and “Unchanging Quest,” by Sir Phillip Gibbs; are now on the rent collection. Two new seven day books are, “My Life As An Explorer,” by Sven Hedin and "Norway,” by Hardy.
