Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS J P. MOBOAN. in an Interview given to the Associated Praaa and printed In thla newspaper, aaya that Great Britain's sensational suspension ol the gold standard Is a "hopeful and not e discouraging event." Perhaps, upon reading this state ment, you said to yourself: "He does not believe that himself. He's Just dishing up hopeful hooey." , - '. BtTT suppose a friend of your came to a crisis In his business af fairs and instead of weakly putting off a decision, had the courage and the stamina to do the difficult, but RIGHT thing the thing that hurt J at the moment, but would ultimate ly put him back on his feet. Wouldn't you say that his decis ion was a hopeful, rather than a discouraging, sign? ENGLAND has been drifting for years, going from bad to worse, hoping that somehow she would be able to "muddle through." She has braced up at last, and is acting de cisively to cure what is wrong with her. That, Is why competent onlookers say that what has been happening in England this week Is hopeful rather than discouraging. IP you want some gloom, here it is, contained in an official report, printed by the government of the United Btates and expressing the ' views of a high official of fee gov ernment: Though the discovery of new pro cesses of manufacture will undoubt edly continue, and this will act as an ameliorating Influence. It will not leave room for marked exten sion such as has been witnessed dur ing the last BO years, or afford em ployment to the vast amount of capital which has been created dur ing that period.- Tibs day of large profits IB PROBABLY PAST." PRETTY bad, isn't It?, But lis ten: ' This gloomy prophecy was ot tered FORTY-FIVE YEARS AGO, It Is contained In an official re port of the V. S. commissioner of labor, printed in 1880. And since Its utterance this country has witnessed prosperity and pro gress and new achievements In the way of greater human com forts and happiness never even dreamed of In 1886. - M vOD have heard It said, probably, I that we are suffering now because of TOO MUCH MACHINERY, which displaces hand labor and so causes progressive unemployment. You have said to yourself, per haps: "Here Is something new In tha world; a new lnfluenoe In busi ness; something that affects radical ly everything we have known In the past. "If the machines TAKE AWAY MEN'S JOBS, how are men going to live?" THIS same commissioner of labor whose views as to the future of business back In 1888 were so pessl rnestlc had this same thought. He said In his report: The nations of the world have overstocked themselves with MA CHINERY and manufacturing plants far in excess of the wants of pro duction. This full supply of economic tools to meet the wants of nearly all branches of commerce and in dustry is the most Important factor In the present Industrial depression." They were blaming depression on the machines, you see, away back In 1886. - t I THE depression of 1886, which look ed so terrible to people of that time, has oeen forgotten long since. It was followed by repeated eras of prosperity and human progress com pared to which anything known BEFORE 1886 was trifling and In significant. " FEAR of the machine, as a dls placer of human labor, goes FAR BACK OP 1886. Upwards of two centuries ago the power loom was Invented, and In England, then the center of the weaving world, the HAND WEAVEB8 feared that the new machines wosld take their Jobs away and reduce their families to starvation. So they started riots, and tried to destroy tie new power machines.
