EDITORIAL PAGE
Theodore Roosevelt Is in the city j
of New York where he is interest
ing himself in the settlement of
the gigantic capital and labor con
test between the manufacturers and]
the members of the garment work
en unions Mr. Roosevelt has ap I
parent! v given his sympathies to
the side of the unions, for he has
spoken of their hardships and of
the injustices that the toilers have
had to endure in their struggle for
a livelihood Little girls, mere
children are involved in this |
strike and the winter and cold is i
all they have to look forward to.
except It be the heartlewness ami
greed of their employers.
When Roosevelt brings his tire
less energies and logical mind t>>
bear upon a question of economics
or politics, his Influence is usually
felt. During and since his last
political campaign, he has more
than ever taken a deeper interest
in eoclological conditions, conditions
that affect labor as well as capital.
He is learning how the other half
liTea, and In learning that he Is
trying to discover and remedy the
mistakes which have before been
apparent but to the dreamers
M Jule* Roche, former minister
of commerce of France, has made
aotne remarkable calciUations as to
the cost of an European war. Tak
ing as a tasis the expenses incur
red by France during the war of
1870. he reckons that, assuming, for
the sake of example, the six na
tions of the triple alliance and the
triple entt-nte went to war. the cost
of maintaining the armies alone
would work out no leu than $5,
400,000,006 a month, without taking
Into account the other expenses.
Continuing in the Gaulols, he says:
And what would be their Internal
condition? The belligerent nations
would be struck with general para
lysis and would see their very
means ot subsistence disappear
Suspension of work would be forced
even on those who were not Inclin
ed In the general mobilisation, since
whom would there be to work for?
To whom would they sell their pro
ducts? How could they be exchang
ed or transported? All the large
works and factories, where the di
vision of labor Is completed, would
have to bo shut. Even agriculture
would be Impossible.
No more purchases or sales, eith
er the ecouomic or the financial
death of labor, an abrupt stoppage
of the heart's action in the national
organism of all the nations at war.
with profound reaction on all oth
er* ? such would be the consequen
ces of a general conflagration in
the present conditions of European
civilisation
Similar views are expressed by
l"aul Lerov-Beaulleu, one of the
leading economists of France. He
thinks, however, that France would
suffer less than other great powers
because, being self-supporting, ahe
always haj at her disposal an Im
mense accumulation of agricultural
products of the previous year on
which to draw for a long period.
i>?rraany would have the greatest
difficulty In obtaining imports, be
ing cut of? by the English fleets
on the ono hand and by Russia on
the other.
What Writers
For the Press
Should Know
By CHARLES R. MILLER. Newspaper Writer and
Lecturer
eniTORIAL writing for which PREPARATION IS MADEl
ONT.Y BY READING NEWSPAPERS is prettv cei
ta n to bo without background and in such cases the guidance
of fixed principle is too often lacking.
THE PURPOSE OF AN EDITORIAL ARTICLE IS INSTRUCTION.
ADMONITION AND ADVICE? THEY SHOULD BE GIVEN WITH AU
THORITY. AS BY AN EXPERT? AND A NEWSPAPER WRITER SHOULD
STRIVE DILIGENTLY TO QUALIFY AS AN EXPERT UPON A WIDE
VARIETY OF TOPICS. AN EDITORIAL WRITER SHOULD READ
MUCH. TALK MUCH. THINK MUCH. TRAVEL WHEN HE CAN. CON- ]
VERSATION WITH THOSE WHO KNOW A GOOD DEAL MORE ABOUT
THE SUBJECTS TALKED OF THAN HIMSELF IS NOTABLY PROFIT
ABLE
It is rital that writers for the press should hare such A GEN- |
ERAT, KNOWLEDGE OF LAW and legal principles as a layman j
can attain to.
Since the law relating to trusts is likely for many rears to come to 1
be a frequent subject for editorial writing, it would be a first rate prep
aration for a student to make a careful comparison of Justice Peck- I
ham's construction of the anti-trust law sixteen vears ago with Chief j
Justice White's opinion in the oil and tohacco cases. INTERNA- |
TIONAL LAW. TOO. SHOULD RF STUDIED DILIGENTLY.
