FIGHTING Tllli FRK8IDEKT.
Senator Lodge said frankly In an-
swer to a question put to him lato
last week:
"I am fighting President Wilson.
That I am willing to acknowledge."
Whether this acknowledgment on
the part of the republican leader Id
accessary, or whether or not it dis-
closes anything that most of us do not
already know, are questions of very
little moment. Senator bodge has a
perfect privilege to fight the presi-
dent If he so desires, but he ought to
be careful how he drags the treaty
of peace Into the encounter. He
ought to exercise mors care, also.
About Injecting partlsanlsm Into the
treaty fight.
Yesterday the Telegram cited figures
from a prominent statistician which
placed the estimated cost of the war
at |31l,000,OOI.OOO. It Is also esti-
mated that at least 10,000,000 men
are dead as a direct result of the fight-
ing. The cost In money and human
i:Ves has constituted a terrible strain
upon the world, and we are all pretty
veil agreed that civilization could not
stand up under another conflict of
such gigantic proportions any time
soon. It has come simply to a battle
between war and civiKzatlon; for if
civilisation does not in some way pro-
Vent war, war Itself will destroy
civilization.
In fighting President Wilson for all
he la worth, using no care In the
weapons he chooses and caring less
•where the blows fall. Senator Lodge
Is doing very little to aid civilization In
the struggle.
It takes a small man to Inject par-
tlsanlsm Into a big issue, and Senator
Lodge's frank acknowledgment that
"I am fii?ht:ng President Wilson" may
have a very particular .significance in
this connection.
mar* work to be done but it la be-
cause tiia necessary work la not be-
to* dona that there la so much eoai-
ptalnt about the shortage of labor
It Is perhaps true that tha output rf
manufacturing plants ia less today
than a year or ao ago under war
restrictions. Laborers may have In-
creased In tho aggregate but produc-
tion has not Increased to t.iko care
of tho demand.
What Is the explanation of this
pleiititmle of laborers and scarcitv
of labor? One answer that may ap-
ply for port oiib of Texns. Oklahoma
and Louisiana, Is that hundreds of
th onsanils of laborers nre employed,
nnd this Includes thousands of re-
tiirni'd soldiers, In the proven nnd
wildcat oil fields—drilling and deal-
ing In leases and stocks snd carry-
ing on all tha trades and professions
that accompany the oil business. Hut
these men aro engaged In a Very
necessary enterprise and the oil In-
dustry has simply Increased the de-
mand for labor.
Another answer Is that many thou-
sands of people who laid extensive
after-the-war building and Improve-
ment plans aro now trying to carry
out those plans, and mnch tabor Is
employed In this way. Many return-
ing soldiers have been offered em-
ployment In the cities and a shortage
of labor has sprung up on the farm.
Tho real answer to the question,
however, probably lies in the fact
that Old Hard Work has lost Its
standing with thw gang and has
sneaked off behind tho city Jail and
ended It all with a bottlo of acid.
The cartoonist of the Chicago Even-
ing Post tapped the main root of the
trouble recently when he produced a
picture showing a sign poster which
read, "Wanted: A Man for Old
Fashioned Hard Work." A score of
ostensible position seekers, after get-
ting a glance at tho legend, were
shown climbing tre«s, running over
park benches and scurrying In every
direction as fast at their heels could
carry them.
While there are many men here
and there who are working their
heada off there are fewer who are
working their arma off; for every-
body naturally wants to get along
wltlv aa little effort as posalbla.
Perhaps we will get around thla
Inclination within the course of tlirw,
but we hope we'll never get back
to the point where men really pnjoy
the old fashioned sort of hard work,
when that moans working from
twelve to sixteen hours a day with
only tlmo enough off at noon to
choke down a piece of fat bacon and
corn bread.
TIIK PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
SPEAKING OP THE LABOR
SHORTAGE.
That there is a shortage of labor
every one knows. All have felt it to
a greater or lesser extent. But that
this Is occasioned by a shortage of
laborers Is perhaps an entirely dif-
ferent question.
Twelve months ago the sages were
acratchlng their heads over the knot-
ty problem of how to provide em-
ployment for the five million sol-
diers returning from overseas and
feeing dscharp<-d from training
camps. Now with the soldiers back
and the army of war workers demo-
bilized and thousands of women and
girls still retaining positions obtain-
ed during the war and with every
able bodied man, whether ex-scrvlce
men or no, who can be persuaded
by the tare of big wages and the
love of country, employed at lucra-
tive Jobe and positions there is still
•n appalling shortage of labor.
Haa the demand for labor increas-
ed by such unprecedented and un-
foraeen bounds that all these mil
lions have been fitted into the indus-
trial fa brie and still there Is room?
Is there so moclr work being done
that all these laborers have been ad-
ded to the Job and the Industrial
«APtaln* a tin crying for more?
It Is not because there la so much
President Wilson In his message
to the congress presented a clean-cut
bualness program which, if carried
out, ought to set things back on a
normal peace basis. even to the for-
mal establishment of peace Itself, al-
though no mention of the treaty was
made.
Hie first recommendation along
this line was for the establishment of
a budget system—suggesting that the
government lead the way In efficien-
cy of management and expenditures
und cutting down taxation as far as
possible through the elimination of
waste and duplication. To Insure the
success of the system be proposed an
• udlt bureau to keep a close check
on affairs.
Such an arrangement ought to be
productive of good results.
Next in order, though not necessar-
ily In importance, the president pro-
posed a revision of the revenue laws
—no radical or Immediate changes,
but a clear policy so that business
may know how to plan ahead for the
future,
Objection has frequently been
raised to the excess profits tax In that
it puts a premium upon expenditures
and a penalty on brains and efficient
management. To avert paying out
'housands of dollars In excess profits
taxes, many firms, it is safe to say,
have m ule purchases that might eas-
ily have been delayed for three or
four years or not made at all—fig-
uring that our good old Uncle Sam
Is paying the bill. This has a rather
stimulating effect on business for the
present, but it will have a very differ-
ent effect three or four years from
now—because the needs which ordi-
narily would hive existed at that time
will not exist then for the simple
reason that they were anticipated and
filled before (hey should have been
filled.
It is a false economy, for everybody
1a trying to dodge tha tax collector
but the tax collector la going to gat
his money Just the same. The people,
as usnal, have to pay.
Renewal of the recommendation for
a better democratization of Industry
la far reaching In ita poastblo effects,
and at the same time presents n maze
of Intrlc ile problems. That the con-
gress and the country have to meet
those problems and solve them sat-
isfactorily, all will agree. Should the
president not havo recognized the In-
dustrial unrest Jio would have been
recreant lo his duties and if he
should have presented a single for-
mula to bring about Industrial peace
—one that would woTk—he would
have pliocd himself somewhat with-
out tho realm in which mortal men
now live and operate. All he could
do In this connection was to suggest
a very general program, leaving it to
capital and ]al>or to get closer to-
gether with the very commendable
soal of better living conditions for all
In sight.
Congress, we know, cannot solvo
the Industrial unrest. It may help
some In the work, but this sort of
peice cannot be bronght about by leg-
islation. If capita) and labor, how-
ever, will meet each other, not as one
clans fighting another class, but as
a great number of Individuals co-op-
erating for tha benefit of all, a solu-
tion can be reached. In the mean-
time, the congress can do well to
study thoughtfully the suggestions
made to curb profiteering, hold down
the cost of living and put an end to
radicalism everywhere.
The president's recommendation
for an enlarged program of rural de-
velopment in recognition of the part
played by the farmers tn the war Is
very Interesting. The farmers ask no
reward for their war services, but
heaven knows that "an enlarged pro-
gram of rural development" was bad-
ly hi need before we ever thought we
would get Into the war.
If the struggle shall result in an
efficient execution of sucb a program
the country will be repaid In part for
the sacrifices it made In the battle,
for with better rural schools, better
roads and better living conditions
throughout the rural districts, as a
nation America will step forward as
no other nation has inarched before
Congress may improver upon some
of the recommendations made by the
president, and others It may rejoct
all together. Itot tha burden of cat
ting business back to a peice time
status has been passed to tha con-
gress, and It will be Interesting to
watch the progress it makes in carry-
ing out the program; for nobody will
say that the president has not made
very commendable suggestions.

permanent strsngth.
Secretary Daniels says: "We are
having all our ships which were so
busy In the war in the Atlantic fleet
overhauled preparatory to going to
Oaantansmo Jan. I."
This wo also have understood and
so reported. It does not bear out
Mr. Daniels' statement that wo are
misinformed. On the contrary. It
supports Admiral Wilson's statement
that there Is but one battleship ready
for Instant jutiun. The secretary
seems to thTnk that the propos-d
practice at Guautanumo tn January
Is a month early, hut on thst score
our recollection and Information are
tlttit January Is the usual time.
We have no desire to prove that
It Is tho seorctary who Is misinform-
ed as to naval conditions. Hut we
do think It Important to remark
that Ms polite letter gives an entire-
ly wrontr Impression as to the ac-
tual state of our naval defense.
Tho facts, which he either ad
mlts or doss net deny. are that with
thv exception at one ship our erttl-e
battleship force has been In dry-
deolca or ports undergoing repa'rs.
"Hie fleet he tetls us he saw on the
l*ac1flo roast lis saw not as n flsht-
Inir force but In docks and drydocks.
Hut of tha most Important fact
Mr. Daniels* letter rives an entirely
false lutprrsfdoa, namely, tlie fa.-t
'thnt our fleet Is grossly underman-
ned as well as laid up for repatrs.
It was asserted In the hearing 1n
congress that there are only enough
men to fire t*e guns uf our battle
fleet on one side. Our Intwit Infor-
mation from the department is thst
at the maneuvers at Ouantannmo to
which Secretary Daniels refers with
apparent satisfaction, only elaht bat-
tleships will lie stile to attend and
th- se must le manned by taking
men from other crews.
In short, the fleet is not a fleet In
lielng. It is not ready to flsrht. It
could not be got r«ady to fight as a
naval unit In a lemr time, becu.se.
first. It Is In docks, second, it Is
■not manned, third, its organization
has largely disappeared because tens
of thourands of Its trained men h«>ve
left, and to map and restore organ-
ization 1s, as every one knows who
has even a smattering of mllltaiw
knowledge, a matter of months af
prenaration.
We think it Is of the gravest con-
ce~n to the nation that our navM
defense is in this deplorable condi-
tion of unreadiness at & time of
world-wldo disturbance and demoral-
ization.
We think it also of the gravest
concern that the civilian head of the
navv dewanment should either h*>f«
sueti slarfc standards of naval effi-
ciency as Mr. T<anlets' letter lmnliea.
or, to adopt the less friendly alter-
native, sbonld be willing to give to
tbe nrewa and ptibl'o a false Idea of
of the ftuai sta'e of *ur naval
defense.—Tho CWcst) Tribune.
EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
Our First Line of Defense.
Secretary Daniels In a recent let-
ter to The Tribune says we were
misinformed when wo stated to an
Inquiring reader that only, one bat-
tleship Is ready for instant action.
The secretary's letter Is an Inter-
esting one, which we hastened 'o
publish, but have deferred discussing
unt.l we had further verified the re-
ports upon which our statements re-
garding our naval preparedness were
based.
We said only one battleship was
ready for Instant action.
Admiral Wilson, commander of the
Atlantic fleet, had made this asser-
tion to the hous^ committee on naval
affairs. We relied upon his knowl-
edge.
Secretary Daniels saya we were
misinformed, but ho does not say
that more than one battleship was
or is ready for Instant action.
He dtKS say. "We have 120.000
men In the navy and I have recently
returned from tho Pacific coast,
where we have the biggest fl^et that
ever sailed the Pacific from Mexico
to Canada "
Our Washington c^rspondent up-
on Inquiry nt the nnvy department
r;nds that th« enlisted pe-sonnel of
♦he navy Is now (Nov. 2?) 95.010.
If these figures, one from the de-
partment and one from the secre-
tary, are both correct there has been
a reduction of IT.oeo In eluht days.
We nre informed that 10.(Mil) old m-
1 stment men haw- Just been dis-
charged—-a serious loss of season .1
men.
As for the 9,1,000 men reported by
♦hie department as the present
strength. It is IS,000 short of the
nuthorir.ed strength for this period

PITCHING I*.
Strickland Grove, In Williamson
county, has a new school house to
replace the one that was struck by
lighting and burned last summor. It's
a perfectly good school house, too,
because the trustees yitched in and
built it just like they wanted It when
it was Impossible to secure carpcn-
ters#to do tho work.
It's been a long time since we heard
of any of these "pitching in" parties
but in a rural community that's a
mighty fine way to get something
done. There are school houses scat-
tered all over central Texas where a
little more "pitching In" could be
practiced to good advantage, even if
for no more than tbe purchase of
window shades to protect th-e eyes of
the chlidren, a stove to protect their
health or new seats and desks for
tholr comfort.
