Though it is not vet clear how ex: tensive Is the agreement just reached between the railroad shop crafts and the executives of certain of the rail ways for a settlement of the strike. apparently a beginning has been ef- fected that practically means the end of the strike in a short time. Th names of the agreeing companie not definitely announced, but it is are | chased from abroad, $3,000,000,000: | American government loans, $10,- '000,000,000; inferest. on' government lcans, $2,000,000,000; commercial cred- i's extended abroad, $3,000,000,000; doliar securities bought from foreign countries, $3,631,000,000; foreign- meney securities sold in this ceuntry, $620000,000, and foreign currensies bought by America, $500,000,000." The $3,000,000,000 of American se- curities repurchased from abroad rep- resents the cancellation of a debt and !stops the annual tribute, and, there- ! fore, is an immediate gain. The other | ltems represent ejther a final and defi- e loss—as is likely to be the case with a part of the government loans and is sure to be with a large propor- tion of the foreign curreneies—or they represent a postponement to the in- o | defirite future of the time when we |can enjoy the fruits of our labor. | In the light of these figures, It is { easier to understand why there is so !great a shertage in this eountry of {dwellings. of schoolhouses and other {public buildings, of railroad trackage {and rolling stock, of improved high- | ways and other conveniences and ne- ssities. Instead of being engaged in building the dwellings and school- houses and the other things we need, each of the 38,000.000 workers in this ountry for the last eight years has devoted considerably more than a month each year to labor for the peo- {ple of other countries. and have re- 'd nothing mere tangible in re- to pay. sured that those bing to the government repre 09 miles of ghe 230,000 railroad milcage in this countr more than fifth, ard include some of the most important of the trunk systems.

The men are to return to work | at the wage ale established by the labor board. effective July 1. They are to be restored to their position in the class as they originally held and at the same point of employment As many as possible are to be pu back immediately, and all who have been on strike, those proved guilty of violence, are to be to work or put under pay not more than thirty days after the agreement is signed.

If it is true, as now estimated, that the operatives have lost $100,000,000 by this strike. they should surely be as eager as the general publi¢ for the definite estab-| lishment of a procedure that will put an end to this enormous waste. —————————— Demecrats are again resretfully compelléd to note the obstinate dis inclination of Massachusetts to break away from the Henry Cabot Lodge habit. —_————— Cllemenceau on an American Jecture tour will contribute a “tiger to the spectacular ~ demonstrations already made interesting by the traditional donkey and elephant. —_— ———— The average Greek resards the po- sition of king as being almost as pre- caripus as the average Turk considers the -position of sultan. $22,000,000,000. Controller Crissinger's statement be- fore the Indiana bankers that Amer- jca's eontribution to world salvation, rehablilitation and stabilization reaches | a total of $22,000.000,000, is calculated to make people sit up and take notice. Twenty-two billlon dollars is a siz- able sum of money, take it as you may, and even the richdst nation in the world cannot part with that much wealth in a period of less than .a decade without feeling the pinch. Of course, this- contribution to world welfare was not made in actual money. As & matter of fact, we have more of the world's stock of money than we had before we began making the contribution: It was made in goods, the product of labor, and, In| the final analysis, in labor itself. In other words, we have done $22,- 000,000,000 worth of work for the world and have been paid only a frac- tion of the wage due us. We have denied ourselves the pleasure and ben- efit of consuming $22,000,000,000 worth of the goods we produced in order to supply the pressing needs of people whe “ere producing less than they consumed. In terms again of labor, this represents a contribution of approximately 3580 for each of the 38,000,000 persons in this country en- gaged in gainful occupations. Taking the average daily wage at'$2, it rep- resents for each wage-earner 290 days of labor, none of the products of which the American people have con- sumed. Mr, Crissinger’s listing of detalls of the '$22,000,000;000 contribution is as fallows; Amesigan ‘sécurities_ repur- i o - | guests.

It was a contributed to the senator’s defeat for renomination.

A veritable flivver boob did a little stunt yesterday on the road between Cherrydale and Washington, and but for a marvel of good fortune would have caused the death of several geo- ple.

If! a prohibition referendum were to be taken in the United States a wet majority might be the resuit. but we | believe that nine out of ten wets| would vote solely because of pers: sonal craving for liquor—of personal slavery.
