WE'RE SLACKING UP
,B
/
It may be recalled that everybody
was going at a pretty stiff gait in
this country about the time the ar-
mistice was signed, excepting an
element which dodged the draft and
army service by getting into ship-
yards and other so-called, war wor]
at high wages and was he'artless
enough to render as little service as
possible in retu'rn. Young and okl
were producing on the vacant lots,
conserving our time by daylight sav-
ing and resCricting, whether by
force or necessity, our general con-
sumption in all lines. Certainly the
United States was making a wonder-
ful production, which, had it been
eontinue'd for the following year,
would have flooded this country
with everything its people might
call for, and as a natural sequence
prices wouhl nov be fair, if not low.
But we seem to have chosen the
other course, possibly the effect of
reaeJtion and the chasing after the
"Jams," and the habit of "slack-
ing" has become general. With the
hours of labor all along the line re-
duced, if not cut in tw'o, production
has been cut in equal ratio; while
increased wages have worked with
the opposite effect toward the still
mounting cost of necessities as well
as luxuries. Indeed the old luxuries
have become the/present day neees-
cartes of all. Nor can we indict the
so-called profiteer for all our ills,
when the human trait seems to spur
all to keep abreast the rising tide
of prices.
Roger Babson, the noted trade ex-
pert whose business it is to analyze
trade conditions and point out the
hidden dangers, expresses "it in tbe
following general sentence: "Every-
body• is trying to get as much money
as possible for the least possible
effort." While this is a broad crit-
icism we are inclined to think it
comes near the crux of the matter,
and the menace to our future lies
not so much in the amount of money
demanded as in the value of the ef-
fort given in return. He adds that
"nobody is. getting anywhere." His
conclusion is what everybody knows:
That this state of affairs cannot
continue indefinitely without a more

conditions, but there is little pros-

year. The remedy rests in speeding
up our productive efforts rather than
slacking on our several jobs, and
in permitting natural rather than ar-
tifidial rules to function for awhile.

convictions have been secured before c. H. Hillman .................. 15
juries, followed by prison sentence,
on the showing of'seditious teachings

destruction. These actions are only
intended to reach the unscbupulous
and vicious leaders, and not the cred-
ulous and deluded dupes who have
been cajoled into giving up money
,.for "red cards." The L W. W. is
making little noise, especially while
the trial at Montesano is going an,
and the better element has come to
realize that it was in bad company
and is tearing up its cards. It is
being made clear that any society
founded on such vicious premises is
bound to be short-I/red and full of
troubles.
COMMUNITY CO-OPERATION
The Allyn-Clifton residents, as well
as those of the several other distant
county districts which have come be-
fore the County Board in a body to
reSs their claims for a much-needed
provement, are proving the value
of friendly co-operative efforts for
community good. They have long
]earned by fruitless effort that in-
dividual "kicking" will get them no-
where, but that if they will Join first
to agree on what i$ fair and just and
present their demands as a body upon
the authorities they will receive full
consideration, and wherever possible
their prayers will be answered. As
citizens and taxpayers those of each
community must be fair with them-
selves and with the other commun-
Ries which go to make up the county, [
bearing in mind that each section has
