Shoe dealers' and manufacturers
predict that before the end of 1917
the price of women'u fancy boots will
be $35 a pair, and that all other foot
wear will be correspondingly high.
Ere long, n pair of all-leather shoes
will be a curiosity in this country.
Heretofore, most of our shoe ma
terial has been imported from South
America. The U. S. furnishes only
25 per cent of our leather. But blood

lost no whit of its business OTUincn,
has contracted for the citire output
of South America for the next two
years. And the irony of the thing is
that they clinched the dc:il with (Amer

There is a fourth view, however,
which is not yet crystallized into an

at this time than many of the other
questions that have arisen from tha
war and are confronting us now for im-1

This shoe, of course, is for use in mild
first used down to present-day foot-
mediate settlement. In view of the
generally accepted necessity for ade
quate military preparedness, immedi
ate steps should be taken to discover
the reason, and the means of counter
acting it, for the apparent apathy, if
not opposition, on the part of the
wage-earning and agricultural classes
of the country to all proposals for
national defense. One reason is the
widespread agitation of the pacifist
bodies, which has resulted in develop
ing a false sense of security. But thero
are some curious phases of the situa
tion that are not so clearly under
stood. For instance, at a time when,
in all the great countries of Europe,
the working men are pouring out their
life's blood and the working women
are making sacrifices to save their
countries from destruction, we have in
this country the spectacle of a body of
professedly anti-patriotic people, com
posed of radical preachers, radical
college professors, socialists, anarch
ists and extreme pacifists, viciously
denouncing all proposals to prenar?
debating the question, "Is this coun-
try fit to be defended?' And this
they are doing in spite of the gen
erally recognized fact that our coun
try is today almost equally hated by
the people of the Entente Allies an l
those of the central powers, and thut,
while today we might have to prepare
for attack by the central power.!
should they win, tomorrow such attack
might come from the Allies should
they be victorious; or the next day w;
might have both groups to fiirht in
case they should arrive at an adjust
ment of their differences, and shou'd
feel that our gold and yrent wpnlth
might be needed to pay some of their
staggering war debts, or that South
America might lie a good country to
divide up.

revolutionary legislative measure,
with which it was adjusted, is likely to
result in a number of evils only lesa
harmful than the alternative of a
strike. For years .the National Civil
Federation and all friends of what is
termed 'the labor movement' have
been promoting collective bariraininir
as the most intelligent and humane
method of dealing letween employers
and employes. And yet when put to
the crucial tjst ;lie highest tvuo of
collective bargaining utterly failed be
tween the largest and most intelligent
organizations of wage-earners and of
capital. In view of this shattering of
some of tho illusions of the friends of
arbitration, mediation, and collective
bargaining the federation's commit
tee on mediation legislation began at
once tho drafting of a proposed sub
stitute measure to present to congress
and tho president, which it hopes will
prove more effective in the future.
This bill and the reasons for it will
also be discussed at the forthcoming
meeting."
