Following the example set in
other cities. some authorities in
N< w York (ietermined to show that
people could live well tor a much
less expensive diet than popularly
was supposed to be followed.
Thev got some cops and upon
them experimented to the immense
satisfaction of the authorities it not
to the satisfaction of the cops prov
ing that their theories were correct.
In effect what they were driving
at was tins. The higher costs ot
staples had made living according
to regular and average standards
alntO't out of the question except
tor the most highly paid of tin* wage
workers. They came to the coin *u
sion then that they would be per
forming an art ot charity - -some
one is always thinking up charitable
tiling- iii tl is vvii k* d old world
to show the workers that within
the compass of their small wages,
notwithstanding high prices a regi
men could lr- devised which would
give them a healthy, wholesome diet
and yet leave one money over.
They wanted to show that the
present standard of living could be
lowered and the workers still exist.
It may be pointed out that when
these philanthrope exprimenters be
ur.rt cut their nlatis. labor is
i lie goat.
Now these ol' New ^ ork might
have attended to the other etui of
!!:• industrial scale and • onsideren
the employers. They might have
eoneludod. alter due consideration,
that they would request the employ
er to grant an increase in wages
wherebv wages would adapt them
selves in a relative measure to the
higher vest of the necessities ol
life. They might have pointed out
that inasmuch as all the necessities
and luxuries of life are produced by
labor, they arc entitled at hast to
an equivalent share of their pro
duct as would maintain such a
standard of living as they had been
accustomed to. These welfare work
ers might have argued that as a
matter of pure industrial morality,
inasmuch as the workers by their
labor produce all wealth, they are
entitled to it stric tly speaking.
Howe ver no such thing happens.
They forget th< exi.-Ktici* of the
employer in lavishing their tender
hearted pity upon the poor work
ing man. The'r hear-, y art’ for
servic e, and they take into consider
ation the few pennies available fot
food clothing and shelter for the
workers, and they proceeded with
plans and experiments to devise
wc.ys and means whereby the work
ers can sec ure1 a sufficiency of tood
TO Jirt'VtMIl
iiifir empty bellies ami too iniirh
suffering from sheer starvation.
It is very beautiful indeed. and
it is what will always happen when
the worker allows himself to be the
plaything of the shallow parasites ot
Capital. it the worker thinks that
. in h experiments are bound to re
sult in an amelioration of Ills eon
diton surely ho deserves no better
fat 3.
Really there social workers are
earning their keep for capital and
the time may be coming when scien
tific dieting may reach the stage
when the workers can live upon
grass or reindeer moss.
If artificial selection can reach
that pitch of development, it is to
he hoped that natural seleciton will
do the rest for those workers who
have submitted in a docile fashion
to be the butts of these parasitic
attentions, and they will be gifted
bv nature with long ears and horned
hoofs, so that they would learn to
properly appreciate the master's
erib and to know their owner.
THK T'AL’SE.
If we would boldly put aside the
amazing perversions of fact which
pass muster as the historical causes
of war, we would come down to the
one broad fact that all wars are eco
I nomie in their origin. And when we
grasped tiiis fact a whole lot of the
' gush and emotionalism and senti
mentality that surrounds any war
' and which in the beginning is used
I to lead a number or hypnotized
slaves to the slaughter fields would
I leave us untouched by their infernal
| contagion.
Now it is the most unlikely thing
that in any country will happen
that the real issues and the real
i causes of war will be placed fairly
1 and squarely before the people. Na
tionalism is aroused, patriotism is
aroused, the national god is invoked
• and weazel words pervert the mind
' ;rom perceiving the real issue.
How many wars have been fought
to prottct the working classes ot
I any country? How many wars to
see that they had an ample food sup
ply. liberal educational facilities,
warm clothing and comfortable,
good wholesome dwellings and al
ways that security of living which
comes when work is assured under
all conditions with the comforts ot
, life thrown in? How many wars
i have been fought to extend the
power of the people, to remove spe
cial privileges, to promote unre
stricted freedom of conscience, the
press, thought and speech? Count
them and discover how few they
are! On the other hand it is utterly
i n . • tut; O > 1. t < . iwi-r i v hnu- mnnv

wars great and small have been
fought to extend territorial control,
to protect investors, to preserve pro
fits, to further trade, to secure finan
cial magnates in their undertakings
Practically all movements of mili
tary and naval forces, all occupa
tions. dashes and engagements have
one. or more, or all. of those ends
in view. They have been wars for
the econmically powerful by the eco
nomically powerful and fought by
the economically powerless always.
These are facts without poetry;
but they are facts just the same.
Tin y are not calculated to rouse the
war lust of the people and they
are as a rule carefully hidden from
publicity. They are facts none the
less which should induce all to
think twice ere they abandon their
resjson to the emotionalism of a war
lever
