WAR RELATIONS OF CAPITAL AND LABOR.
OXK of llii' tfcdiKiinii' yiiins f tlii! war to of'fst t Ihc tre
mendous Ions iiiitl eollosal t'XiJcnditui'CH, liiis been
the more sympathetic undei'stiiiidins that has )revailed
hetween capital and labor in their clone co-operation to
win tho war. Labor has in the world crisis, secured a
recognition never before enjoyed, nof only in America but
in all bellijjerant countries and has demanded and secured
a seat at the council table.
For the first time in modern industrial life, capital and
labor have betjiin to consider themselves as partners, each
contributing his share to production for the common good,
instead of enemies, each intent on looking out for selfish
interests.
The democracy of the modern army has swept aside
posit ion and caste in the blood, shed' in common on the
battlefields, and the common effort at home to keep the
war machine going has torn down tho barriers of class and
prejudice in the mutual dependence, and gone far to es
tablish a real democracy.
Kadi side is more ready to lend- a sympathetic ear to
reasonable demands of the oilier than ever before.
Commenting upon the new recognition of the commu
nity of interests, the Archbishop of York recently said:
"Nothing Is more striking than Die way in wjiich the employers frank
ly recngnixe that they must be prepnred to look at tho new situation In a
new spirit. The employers must recognize the necessity of giving to the
workmen a larger shore of the prcduct of the Industry and a greater
iiharo of control of tho management of Industry."
Secretary of labor, W. 13. Wilson, recently said on the
same subject:
"It Is an unreasonable and untcnuhlo position of modern industry to
assert for itself It : right of combination and deny that right to tho labor
ing people. . . . Lal.or denied the right of solf-oxprossion always feels it
self aggrieved, Is nevr nn efficient force 'because of its discontent which
Hog smoldering beneath tlio surface, nnd which may at any time break out
In disastrous strikes and other Indut trial disturbances. If lubor Is to be
a partner of capital In tho welding of a nation that shall conquor tho Her
man autocracy, a recognition of the rights of labor to bo consulted on tlio
torm of partnership is essential." ;
To further this program of harmony between capital
and labor, the president formed the Committee on Labor
as part of the Council of National Defense, headed by ex
President Taft, to adjudicate labor disputes. Their decis
ions have in the main been generously accepted by both
capital and labor.
There are of course both captains-o industry too re
actionary and unpatriotic to recognize the democratic
rights of their employes, and labor unions too rapacious
and unpatriotic to accept the decisions of the national
board. In such instance, the president has not hesitated
to act for the common good.
Tlie Western Union Telegraph company refused to
obey the; order of the war labor council to permit its em
ployes the right to organize for collective barganing and
the government took over the telegraph lines.
The IJethleheni Steel company has refused to comply
with the findings of the labor council; and permit the prin
ciples of democracy to prevail in its army of employes and
unless it does comply, the concern will probably be taken
over and operated by the government.
The Smith and Wesson Co. refused to reliii(iii.sh its
feudal rights over labor, and abide by the decision of tin
war labor board enforcing collective bargaining, and the
war department has taken it over to operate it, so as to
secure continuous production and prevent industrial dis
turbances. The recalcitrant labor unions have been similarly
firmly dealt with. Strikers have been informed bluntly!
by the president that, he considered them as slackers and
traitors to America's cause and in all cases they have
returned to work, accepting tin; decisions of the war
board upon the issues in dispute.
The latest labor organization to feel the heavy band of
Uncle Sam is the liridgeport. Conn., Machinist's Union.
These strikers have been notified that unless they return
to work and abide by the wage award of the war labor
board, they will be barred from employment for a year,:
and draft boards will be instructed to cancel all claims'
for exemption from army service based upon alleged use
fulness in war production.
The president is plnving no favorites. He tells the
strikers: "Having exercised a drastic remedy with recal
citrant employers, it is my duty lo use means equally well
adapted to that end with labor and faithless employes."
However, such instances have been rare. In only a
few cases has the president had to exert his authority.
(Icnerally speaking, employers and employes have patri
otically co-operated in harmony to win the war.
The old order of feudal industrialism has forever pass
ed away. 'In fighting for world-wide. democracy we are
also democrat i.ing the United States. The old order dies
hard, but it is dyinn and it must if we are to remain
democratic and avoid Holshevikisiii and I. W. W.ism.

bonds would not he issued nnd you
would have io wait unli! you were al
lowed lo build hut Ihere would be no
interest or oilier chare,!'. There are
two things to consider in this con
nection. First that if the bonds nro
voted the I'nitcd States government
Iims nn opportunity to decide whether
the project should go nhend nnd sec
ond even if we are not allowed to
build now .Mill every one who lenves
the vulley will go nwuy knowinjr that
just us soon ns we are allowed to
build prosperity will return and they
will he looking forward to coming
hnek here. While tinder present con
ditions those who go nway plan to
settle in n community where prosper
ity is evident in spite of tho fact that
many of them would rather live here.
What good would water do me? It
would allow you to raise larger and
more certain crops, it would insure
you n higher average price on your
crops, it would incrense your wealth
and it1 would make your property suit
able if you wished to sell.
How can I be certain about lar-rer
and more certain crops. During the
winter months nn abundance of ruin
falls to wet tho soil hut during tlie
trowinir season wo have almost no
rain. For every ton of dry matter
which you grow you must provide
from 7(1(1 to 111(10 tons of wntor in
your soil within reach of the feedin;,'
roots. Our soils aro lionvy'und: they
t'linmit provide I his huee tonnage of
water at Ihe proper time witirMiiu re
sult, tluit our crops never produce
mainiuiu yields excepting when we
have unusual heavy, rains in. .July.
How cull I he certain of higher av
orage prices Instead of having one
creamery, one Hour mill,, one feed
'store, one ejinery, you will find the
samq thing happen ns it has in every
irrigated district. Stock men will
feed your hay, alfalfa mills will coin
pele for your nlfalfu, dairy men will
demand your green fodders, buyers
will locate periiianenOv in your valley.
Canneries will take till the vegetables
r.nd fruits that you can raise. Today
when prices are high we have little
lo soil and when we have much to
sell prices ore low because we have
not got the business men whoso entire
business is distribution.
How can I bc certain (hat it will in
crease my wenllh? Your wealth is
based upon Ihe profits you can make.
If yon make a profit of .(i per acre
your land is world approximately
Mltll per acre, if you double your
profits you double the value of your
laud und Iherefore your wenllh. The
farmers in Hie Turlock irrigation dis.
I riot were assessed in 11)04 at $1.
7SS,.iS!i, and in llll.") at rl0.1(M,R!IO,
or an increase in their wenllh during
II years of almost $11,000,01)0. That
sainu conditions exists (brought nil
irrigated districts.
How can I be eertnin that my prop
erty will he more salable? Fnnn
lands like any other investment nrc
figured upon the returns they can
make on the money put into them.
. . -
Suppose you were looking for u farm
would you be willing lifter ihe last
five years of drought to put money
into a Hogue Uiver valley non-irrigated
farm? Oive the other fellow the
credit of having ns much sense us
you huve.
