A BT E. W. HOWE. In B. W. Howe's Monthly. GENTLEMAN" who haa lately re turned from Russia aays the vast majority of the better classes there will not raise a finger to save their country. The one idea uppermost in their minds is simply to escape from the bolshevik I. but there is no idea of turning back to fight therd; when they have escaped, they appeal to the allies, to anybody and everybody, to come and tight for them, -but will not make the slightest sacrifice or effort to do so themselves. A wrong Idea Is in control in Russia, but those who oppose it, the majority, do nothing. We have the. same situation In the United States. We of the middle class, the majority, do not accept what is being done by the mistaken and very danirerous minority, but only grumble make a splendid gala in healthy flesh to our wlves and children, and to an occasional neighbor pledged to- secrecy.

Bad debts and bad principles have piled up until they are have become a menace greater than we have ever before been called upon to face. I don't care what Sam Gompers may, say: he is the head and front of the present great offending.

Both phones, Adv, failed; we must fight, and once we start, millions of the better class union men will enlist under the ban ners of moderation and common sense, I am a labor union man. When I was a journeyman, I belonged to the union when I was an employer, I willingly employed union men only: I was never a "rat In my life. But labor leaders have adopted ideas that wont work, and we must vigorously oppose them. or perish as a nation. The common sense of mankind has always doubted the programme the leaders are trying to put into effect. Select a dozen citi zens of the world of greatest practical sense, and ten of them have denied this programme; the other two have been suspicious. The world has more to do today than ever before In its history, but instead of doing more work, millions of men are doing less and demanding more pay In spite of our virtual bankruptcy. Everybody knows the real foe we must come to grips with is union labor. Earopeaa Conditions Viewed. Do you realize what the actual situ ation Is today? Frank A Vanderltp. one of the lead ing men of this decade, without doubt, recently said: "I was in Europe from the first of February to the ninth of May. I spent some time in England first: then went to France, to Switzerland, to Italy, to Spain, back to Paris again; then to Belgium and Holland and back to London. It is a fair statement to say that I saw the leading men In those countries. I met every finance minister. I met many of the prime ministers. I met the leading financiers and bankera. great employers of labor, labor leaders. And what I have to tell you Is not just an opinion of my own. snatched out of the blue sky. It is a reflection, perhaps a composite of the opinions of the first minds of Europe. If it were not. I would not arare tell you some of the things I am going to. I want to say right at the beginning that however Mack a backgr&und I paint and it will be dark 1 would not paint It. I would not tell the atory, except that I believe America must know it, most comprehend H. must get It Into heart and mind, because we must act: and If we do -act. we can save Europe from a catastrophe, a cataatrophe that will involve us. That la why I feel moved to tell something of the conditions that I saw over tbere. something of some of the consequences that may flow from those conditions. I believe It is possible that there may be let loose In Europe forces that will be more terribly destructive than have been the forces of the great war. I believe we can probably save- the situ ation from anything as fearful as that. If I did not believe it, I would hesitate to say what I shall about condition. If I were to try to put into words what I sum up- as the most essential thing to grasp about the situation In Europe, the two words would be "paralyzed in dustry.' IaUeaieas la Ineompreheaaible. There is an idleness, there Is a lack of production throughout Europe, and Indeed in England, that you can hardly comprehend. There is a difficulty about a resumption of work on ordin ary peace affairs that I think nobody could be made to comprehend that did not see it on the ground. Of course, there is a great scar across Europe where there has been devastation. I hardly need to speak of that. Tou have been told the story. But, after all, that Is only a scar across northern France and Belgium, destroying a con siderable part of the industries of those two countries, it is true, but it is not that devastated district that I speak of. It is the idleness all through the countries where the mailed hand of war has been laid upon industry. Why should a factory unharmed by the war, in the midst of a continent wanting everything, incidentally be idle? Why snouid there be 1,000,000 people In Erne land receiving an unemployment weekly dole? Why should there be In little Belgium 800,000 -people receiving s weekly unemployment wage? Let me try to give you a picture of the diffi culties that a manufacturer Is under in Europe today in an attempt to start his factory. In the first place the manu facturer is facing a wage situation two or three times what the wages were in pre-war days. I was in Spain. Spain has been unharmed, has prospered as she never prospered before, and but for a terrible cancer In her she would be the most promising place in Europe. That cancer Is the labor situation. There was presented at Barcelona as perfect a laboratory of Bolshevism as you ever saw, an organization that was the most mysterious, the most terrify ing, of any organization that I ever en countered. It takes in the whole labor ing population there. It Is secret to the extent that the members themselves do not know who guides it. It calls gen era! strikes merely for gymnastic ex ercises. Rule Is By Assasalnarlon. "It rules by assassination. In the time I was there 72 employers and fore men had within a few weeks been as saselnated. Not one conviction. No witnesses would testify; they were ter rified. It terrified the papers. They had told the papers: Tou can not pub lish anything that we do not censor.' They censored one paper for publishing an official order of the government. fined It 5000 pesetas, and told the pub lishers they would destroy their presses if they did not pay. They did pay, but the censorship became so absurd that every paper stopped publication. There Is a minority in every country in Eu rope, active minority, that believes in a programme for the upsetting of social order. In England employers estimated to me that that minority was 10 or 15 per cent, a minority that actually be Ueves the whole theory of property rights should be abandoned, that we should go into a communistic state of aociety. - Mr. Vanderlip outlines other causes of the present fearful conditions abroad, but says the real cancer is the labor situation. This has resulted in railroad paralysis. Mr. Vanderlip says Herbert Hoover told him that the breakdown in transportation in Cen tral Europe and in the countries east of Germany was so, serious that there was bound to be starvation of hundreds of thousands of people simply because the food could not be moved. If ports were run or rood, there would still be many thousands of people starving. in tne present great and temporary emergency tne millions of Idle men in Europe could at least go on the land, and produce their own food; with spades and hoes, if need be, until ma chinery and work animals can be pro vided: but Instead of that they are de manding more food, more luxuries, and less wcrk. And politicians everywhere. n spite of public bankruptcy, are try ing to meet these demands: England is undertaking to build a million houses, that the demands of the unreasonable grumblers may be met. Situation Gradually Spreads. The situation abroad Is gradually be ing duplicated here; you know it. and I know it, God is doing nothing for us: we must do something for our selves. The bear has long been looking for us, and finally he has found us. We can't outrun him; we can't put salt on his tail. We must fight to a finish: hereafter bear or man will rtrie. Thero is no doubt of the programme agreed- upon by the disturbers, in the United States. A mass meeting was lately held in Madison Square garden, in New York city, and 10.000 attended. Addresses were made by one of Presi dent Wilson's appointees; by one of the editors of The Nation, the most notable of our reviews; by a socialist preacher; by a well-known progressive politician, etc.; the same old new thought crowd. All the speakers in dorsed the Russian revolution. One man (President Wilson's appointee) said: "The new world haa come, and the oapitalists and all the other accursed ones and their armies cannot keep back the onrnshing flood of freeing, cleans ing Ideas which are refreshing the hearts and minds of men, and which are making the face of the earth a greener, sweeter, lovelier place to look upon." This meana. of course, that the meth ods which have made Russia a greener, sweeter, lovelier place to look npon are to be adopted in the United States. President Wilson himself wrote, in one ' of hie famous literary masterpieces (January, 1918): "We assure her (Rus sia) of a sincere welcome Into the so ciety of free nations nnder institutions of her own choosing; and more than welcome assistance also of every kind that she herself may desire. Still later, in January of this year. the president again took up his famous pen, and wrote: "They (the associated powers) recognize the Russian revolu tion without reservation, and will in no way and In no circumstances aid or give countenance to any attempt at counter revolution. ' Roasts Revalatioai Pralaed. Another speaker praised Lenine and Trotzky, and declared that the "Rus sian revolution marks the one and only beneficent result of the world war." The speakers particularly emphasized the point that the present revolution Is economic; that Is, It demands a divis ion of things. One of them likened the Russian revolution to the French revo lution. "It didn't dethrone the king alone," he said; "it was economic. The French peasants also took the land, and distributed it among themselves. They confiscated it." Ths objection to the Bolshevikl plan is that it Is not a good plan. It will not endure; people have never long' accepted it- France soon changed, and adopted the system under which we now live under which all civilized peo ples must live. These men are mistaken; they are advocating a fallacy. Tne objection to. 'JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII. The Scarcity of High-Class Silverware, Both Sterling and Plated, Should Prompt Many lo Buy Silverware Now From every authentic source comes word of an impending shortage of silver ware for some time to come. In fact, to some extent, a shortage already exists. Many leading manufacturers of silver ware are even at thil time refusing to accept orders. These very manufacturers predict that for the next seven years at least the price of silverware will not be lower than pres ent prices. The fact that so much silver has been withdrawn from commercial use for coin age purposes by the nations of the world accounts for this condition. We advise early selection on the part of . those who are giving some thought to selection of silverware, be it sterling or plated.

We must oppose the doctrines of President Wilson as ear nestly as we oppose the doctrines of Karl Marx, Bam uompers, KoDespierre; all are as certainly mistaken as were the Millerltes, who gave away every thing they possessed because they be lieved the end of the world was at hand. A good many believe the Russian bol shevikl go to lengths never dreamed of by socialists In other countries. As a matter of fact, the Russians are doing what the socialists everywhere have always wanted to do, and will do. unless restrained. In the tremendous publication known as The Dial, Jessie Wallace Hughan says: "The programme of the British La bor party has justly provoked the ad miration of the liberal world. We point with pride to an American congres sional platform, later than the British and profiting by it, yet to the student of American socialism a direct devel opment of the immediate demands of past platforms. In addition to the call for government ownership of public utilities and basic industries, always present in the socialist platform, a far seeing succession of demands is made for measures of present reform" One of these reforms is inheritance and income taxes of 100 per cent; that is, if yon make a thousand dollars a year, all of it must go to the state; if you die, all of your property is con fiscated bv the government. Do you know of anything more' liberal in the bolsheviki platform?
