JUDGE GARY'S VIEW
“Union control of the industries of
the country means decay and the
dropping off of production,” said
Judge Gary, chairman of the board of
the United States Steel Corporation,
recently to the senate investigating
committee. To emphasize his posi
tion Judge Gary said: “Such union
control means this country cannot
keep up the race with the world.”
In answer to the claim that the
steel corporation officials refused to
confer with the heads of labor or
ganizations representing the employ
es, Judge Gary showed that the labor
leaders do not work for the corpora
tion and do not represent the men
employed in that institution. He add
ed that the steel corporation officials
have alweys met and discussed mat
ters with their own employes but
have refused to confer with them as
union men. “The big issue,” he said,
“is the open shop,” which he says
“means, betters methods, more pro
duction and more prosperity.”
Denial of bad conditions prevailing
in the steel mill districts and mis
treatment of employes brings that
important matter up to the decision
of the members of the committee,
which proposes to visit the cities
where the works are located.
Back of this strike is an issue which
the entire country must soon face
and solve for the good of the employ
ers as well as the employed. The
safety of the country is involved.—
New York Herald.
BECAUSE IT IS INCOMPETENT
Is the Democratic party competent?
We may concede its honesty, its
high ideals and all other equipment |
of the spellbinder. The real question
is whether the Democratic party has
proved itself competent to run the
government.
Its leader undertook to make peace
alone, though that is what the people
have most wanted since November II,
1918.
He undertook to organize a league,
which has been a national aspiration
of the American people for many
years. He organized a league to
which the United States alone among
civilized nations has not conceded.
He cannot shift responsibility to the
Republicans. When he found objec
tions which prevented this necessary
thing from being done, he should
either have compromised with his
opponents or he should have proved
their position so factious and un
reasonable that the people would
have driven them into agreement with
him. On the contrary, his own position
was sc uncompromising and unreason
able that he drove half of the Dem
ocrat)'-. senators into the ranks of the
opposition.
In the first year of war the Demo
cratic party doubled the national debt
tv/ei tj times, but as regards produc
tion cf war material it was just ready
for war when the war ended.
It brought back the soldiers with
no provision made to clothe them
after discharge or to support them
during the critical period when they
would be settling down to civil occu
pations. It had left them without pay,
while in France, and had left many
of their families without allowances.
Return of peace demanded much
legislation to readqust the country to
peace conditions. No such laws.-were
passed until a Republican congress
took charge, and some of the most
important Republican enactments
were vetoed.
When return to peace conditions
required reduction of the currency it
added further to inflation, thus caus
ing prices to rise higher.
It enacted a system of taxation
which enhances prices, incites to
profiteering and checks production
by diverting capital from productive
enterprise at the precise juncture
when larger production is needed as
the most effective means to reduce
prices.
Many more counts might be added
to the indictment, but these are suf
ficient to prove the case.
In the face of this record the Dem
ocratic party has the effrontery to
ask for four more years because its
intentions are good. However good
they may be, it is incompetent to put
them in effect.
CANDIDATE COX A “ME TOO.”
Woodrow Wilson is for the League
of Nations—his league. Candidate
Cox says, “Me, too.” Woodrow Wilson
does not propose to have any reserva
tions. Candidate Cox says, “Me, too.”
Woodrow Wilson said he was willing
to allow “Interpretations.” Candidate
Cox says, “Me, too.” But that is
what all expected when the candidate
went to Washington recently to get
his orders. He needed the Wilson in
fluence or he was a “gone Cox.”
By his speech accepting the Dem
ocratic nomination, Candidate Cox
Cox shows himself an adroit politi
cian. He dodges every real issue ex
cept the League of Nations, touching
upon certain questions upon which
there is practical unanimity between
the two parties. On the subject of the
i League of Nations he had no choice.
| He must swallow' the Wilson policy,
"hook, line, and sinker,” or face de
feat. Possibly w'e should also say, “and
face defeat.” Probably he thought to
catch some votes by conceding that
“interpretations” would be acceptable
but the people have been fed up on
“interpretations” by Mr. Wilson. Any
one w'ho has any knowledge of law
knows that an “interpretation” cannot
operate to change the league cove
nant. We may make all the ’’inter
pretations” w'e see fit, but what we
agree to do is embodied in the cove
nant itself, and we agree to every
thing contained in the covenant un
less w^e expressly make “reserva
tions.” Mr. Wilson know's that, or he
wmuld have been entirely willing to
have “reservations” instead of “inter
pietations ’ adopted. He drew the lino
on reservations” because he wanted
the covenant to be adopted without
change. If Mr. Cox does not know
this he is not a fit man for the pres
idency.
Mr. Cox’s acceptance speech makes
it plain that the Wilsonian policies
will be continued if the Democratic
candidate shall win. The country has
had enough of anti-Americanism,
enough of one-man government,
enotigh of super-government propa
ganda, enough of attempts to nullify
the Monroe Doctrine, enough of over
taxation, underproduction and govern
mental extravagance, enough of free
trade which enriches foreigners at our
own expense. We have had enough
of amateurish, of theoretical govern
ment. We want a surcease of it. In
stead, we want a government man
aged along business principles, ad
ministered by men who understand
the business. The only safe wray is
to vote the entire Republican ticket.
VOICE OF THE ALASKA PRESS
If you feel that you would enjoy a
real rich diet, chew on the corner of
your newspaper. Measured on the
basis of increased costs, the chew
would be costlier than anything your
diet includes.
The pulp from which the paper
was made has increased in cost 633
per cent, chiefly during the past five
years. Few other things you chew
upon have advanced more than half
the same amount.—Nome Nugget.
The near-tragedy enacted in the
city on last Saturday night when an
eighteen-year-old youth shot his part
ner, again brings out the fact that
guns and boys should not be allowed
to mix. In Alaska no one needs to
have or carry a revolver. Life and
limb are perfectly safe. There are no
hold-up men or desperadoes. There
is some excuse for a rifle or a shot
gun, as they are good for shooting
game, but why anyone should have a
revolver is a great mystery.—Douglas
News.
After March fourth, when Wilson
and his party pets march forth, the
school boys who have hitherto enter
tained their audiences with the an
cient gem of oratory, “Beyond the
Alps lies Italy” can paraphrase it by
saying “after Wilson comes Harding
and protective prosperity.”
