Principle of Service Is Everywhere
and Generally Being Insisted On
By SAMUEL GOMPERS, President of American Federation of Labor
Every emergency brings with it opportunity and
danger in proportion to its magnitude. Now the whole
| world lias suspended every other consideration to main
' tain principles of basic importance to the civilization of
1 democratic freedom. Organization is now in a fluid form
every agency and method must demonstrate effeetive
^ ness or gi\e wav to something better. The only test is
pH, service. This principle is potentially revolutionary. It
If is that for which constructive idealists of all ages have
contended. It is the basis for labor's contention that a
man’s worth to society is the service he performs and 1
that all the rewards and compensation are determined upon that simple]
basis.
This war has brought out in illumination a new interpretation of
service. This war is being fought bv whole nations, not merely by the men i
on the firing line. Those in military service are helpless without the co
operation of those rendering service in industry and in transporting troops,1
in making supplies and munitions of war. This war has no place for para- ,
sites or special privileges founded on tradition or legalistic liction. There
is a place only for those who render service. 'Phis is the revolutionary
spirit which the world war is breeding in every country and in every army,
our own included.
i Imse who stand on the firing line and face death in the most awful*
forms that human intelligence can devise will never again accept unques
tioned institutions and standards based on any other principle except serv
ice. Those in the factories, the mines, and the shops who have once had
this war standard applied to their work, will accept none other unques
tioned.
This is the spirit of revolution which has been felt stirring us all. it
is this revolutionary spirit seeking justice in all relations between men
that has aroused concern for existing institutions. *
But there is nothing to futffrom this constructive spirit of revolu
tion. On the contrary, it presages a new age—a forward movement for
the well-being of humanity. It is the thrilling spirit of the Marseillaise
that has stirred many a hear! in deeper determination for service in the
cause of human freedom.
It is the purpose of all liberty-loving men and women that this shall
De the nature and the effect ol the war for which they are lacrificiug so
much.
Ill BREAD HAS
NUTRITIOUS
LONDON. May 25.—The British
“war bread” has been vindicated and
indorsed by a committee of scientists
after a series of tests conducted in
the laboratories of Cambridge, Glas
gow and London universities and in a
number of factories and hospitals.
The committee finds that bread
composed of whole wheat flour mixed
with 20 per cent of other cereals is
not only suited to all ages and diges
tions, but also “gives a higher per
centage of energy."
The loaves used in the experiments
were baked from flour milled under
the personal supervision of a. K.
Huihphries, president of the National
Association of British and Irish Mill
ers. No precaution was omitted to
make the experiments complete, and
every result was worked out in a se
ries of tables.
At one factory in Yorkshire the
tests were applied to a group of
twenty men, nine women and two chil
dren. It was their sole bread supply
for a period of two months, and they
were under medical supervision
throughout. In no case did it cause
digestion trouble, and in certain cases
health seemed to improve during its
use.
When the mixed bread was tried on
twenty-five patients suffering froiu tu
berculosis it was found that the bread
was preferred by the majority 0f the
patients, all of whom had more or
less impaired digestion. Most of the
patients gained weight during the pe
riod they were undei observation.
The report of the committee says:
“The main fact established js that
the human body can make better use
of the parts of the wheat grain which
have hitherto been discarded than the
pigs and poultry to which these rich
and nutrient by-products of milling
have been given in the past. The coun
try has gained enormously in food
and energy from the compulsory in
clusion in I he loaf of these by-prod
ucts. The gain can be expressed in
definite terms as an increase of
1,700,000,000,000 calories of energy on
the wheat milled each year in this
country, or enough to extend the cer
eal supply of energy for more than
a month.”
TOKIO, May 25.—Warning that ad
verse economic conditions may de
velop in Japan as a result of the war
was given by the Japanese premier,
Count Terauchi, in an address deliv
ered before the annual meeting of the
clearing house banks. Responsibility
of averting disaster, tun said, rested
upon the bankers of Japan.
The premier remarked that the ne
cessity of industrial independence had
been vividly brought home to Japan
in consequence of the war, and it was
because of this that the government
had introduced into the last session of
the diet projects tending towards the
achievement of this independence.
Mr. Shoda. finance minister, who
followed Count Terauchi, said that the
government, in compiling the esti
mates for the current fiscal year, paid
the utmost attention to the perfection
of the national defense. A project
was mapped out for the building of
two battle cruisers, three cruisers and
seventy-five warships of all sorts, at
a total cost equivalent to $150,250,000,
the disbursement was to be spread
over six years. This, together with
the expenditure of $141,500,000 which
had already fixed, would bring the to
tal naval expenditure to be defrayed
during the next' six years to about
! $292,000,000.
AMERICAN SOLDIERS ILL
RECEIVE MAIL REGULARLY
LONDON, May 25.—American sol
diers training in camps in England
were somewhat startled last week to
read an official notice stating that in
future the British postoffice would not
undertake the delivery of letters ad
dressed to them. Investigation, how
ever, showed that ail the announce
ment meant was that military post
men had been appointed to collect di
; rect from the local postoffice and de
liver all letters addressed to men in
camp or barracks. At. ihe front this!
duty is performed by members of
various non-combatant departments.
