This 1s what the mid : "During the world war, labor was conscripted to go and fight the enemy. Now we are faced with an economic war, why not conscript capital?" Very neatly put. madam, and very eoaeIse. A good many have written books to express the Idea that you have ezpresred in two short sentences. Let's just size up the situation as she presents it to us. She abs that la- bor was conscripted during the war. Trite enough. Without grumbling they came, from the fields anti the factor - Sea, from officer and mines, Their country needed the only things they had to offer -their youth, their laves -- and they gare them freely. They shouldered the gun and went to the front -with a smile on their lips. Some of them never returned, some came back broken pieces of humanity. They paid an awful price in lives, blood and happiness. What for? Just to make their country and their homes a safe blare in which to live. Then this lady goes on to ay that we are now facing a dl .r*wt kind of foe, in the form of economic distur- bances. No quarrel with her on that point. She says capital holds the key to the situation; why not conscript capital to get us out of tile? What could be more sensible? Labor gave what ft could daring the world war; let capiar` ver whimit can dial ing this ecotwtaic w r.__The democra- tic etrueture of our aoclety wee threat= rued during the world war; labor said, 11s ne ptssenmt par -they shelf not pass. Now the financial structure of our system is threatened, why not call upon espial to protect St? Capital couldn't stop the world war; labor could and did. labor ean't clop this economic war: capital can if It will. The release of hoarded wealth would put so mach money Into circulation that the butcher, the baker and the candlestick -maker would go into ■ huddle and burst out with "Happy days are here again." Such a cvsarte of action is perfectly logical, perfectly ethical and perfectly feasible -IF - And there's the stumbling block. We've so got it into our hearda that anything in the nature of a reform is ('ommunietic or Bolshevistic that no sooner would a perfectly earnest re- former get up on his hind legs and ad- chattge than he would be sw whfak ay to King.ton so fast that be'd be locked up before his speech was over. They'd tell ham his -pull was seditious, that it smelled of Mos- eow. And they'd probably put him in the cooler with Tim Buck and his cronies. The sooner we realise our aystem has to change., the better it will be for us. And we can believe that without be- ing ('ommunlete. As Sir Josiah Stamp, president of the Bank of England, aid: "Somewhere between our present 'system of government and the Russian ,yatem Iles the form of government whk'h hest mutts our requirements." A STORi' OF PHUE OBBWRAIEN The writer of an article on the late W. P. Ker. In "('ornhill," nays that one day Ker told "The Story of the Four pcotsmen," which he de- clared to he the best story` In the world. and the most searching test of humor. This in the story : "Two Scotsmen were talking atxxst a third. Said tha.fla.L to. the slay,(A Ile ham nn sense of humor at all. tie would n't awe a joke If you were to Are it at Mm out of a piMol.'
