Men and women who scrimp and save sur the Urey- won spider secret dqfloinney, tlit.first whiff of militarism which was allowed to make its own secret agreements ns well.The dismal failure of it nil is so a;

they have reckoned the costs uf idle machinery, idle men and poor planning as legitimate overhead expense and have asked of the ; government and the consuming public full reimbursement for that eost and their margin of profit besides.“11 i.s a crime that grows out of ignorance.The minds of business men generally are in some phases of the art of production wrapped in medieval mysticism.They don’t know what their costs are.In the so-called model mills and factories, where efficiency What every trade-unionist should do on that glorious day of celebration.Italiques Mr.John ,/.Maiming, Secri tan/ teras urer of the Union Label 2 rad rs Or Iuirtmcnt of t h t‘ Americiin federation1 of Labor, has issued ttie following circular let ter, which is very interest ing anti self- explanatory and its recommandâtio/i.s are well worth the fall support of tvery trade unionist: "Labor’s National holiday is fast np proaehing and in connection with the celebration of this day upon which the j | toiling masses congregate either in par ades, demonstrations, field days or ;

An incident took place last week at Victoria, 11.t'., worthy of notice, there, was a By Election at which a conserva ; live, a liberal and a private soldier we ic candidates for office; Private Frank I Gudina won by a vote so overwhelming that both old party's candidates lost | their deposits.The people out there are evidently tired of empty political cant, nominated the man they wanted and wont out and voted for him; that’s simple enough dear knows: and if the exemple is followed everywhere in Canada workingmen here will soon lie able to say hands across the sen to tlicii Australian and British Brothers.This election proves how utterly helpless tho old parties are if the people would only east their votes for their own party ttie ‘‘Labor Party .If the workers and their wives set themselves to the la-'k of realizing the aims of labor there is no power on earth strong enough to heat them, both parties were retained in power through the vote ol labor, neither party are there to represent labor.Why should labor plead for or expect any thing from them! Tinsse gentlemen are minding, and minding well their own business, when labor pays attention to its own business and not till then will they have a pait* to attend to their affairs.A Labor Party, hurry up boys!

but in each country it is winning its way against groat odds, and in each country it is full of promise for the poverty-stricken workers.Agricultural and credit societies predominate in each.In 1913 Japan had 9,000 consumers, producers, and credit societies, with about 900,000 members.India had in 1910, Is.min agricultural co-operative .societies, with a membership of 700,000 and 1,000 non-agricultural, although the movement was introduced only Id years ago.The majority of the-sc agricultural societies are virtually credit unions.As the local village money-lender often charges the ryots in India from do to 30 per cent on loans, the value of their service 'heir own mo nev — landing societies perform for them can easily be aprreeiati-d.The profound revolution that is grad ually taking place in Spain is somewhat romantically epitomized in the fact that in Madrid, the ('ada del Tueblo, in which the central organization of the Socialist party, the labor federation, and local co-operatives are housed was once a ducal palace.At the Municipal elect .oils held in Mexico City in December, 1917, the Par tidi.Co .p.-rista National "as elected.The first plank in this platform was the extension of consumers’ and producers co-operation.Moreover, this partv ¦ .j st rises — o Viser, Mr.Charlemagne, ,t.ss thail 10 new schedule of t ram- : | | u ;l The Montreal Trade i Council has decided, at its meeting of|af j Thursday night, to follow the counsels of its legal adv 1 Rodier, as to the ways' fare: Mr.Charlemagne Rodier, iu an inter testing document supported by judg ments rendered by the courts, gave the best way to act in these circumstances and made the following recommenda lions: I.Not to take any injunction for the present;
