The old and furtive clan of the Panhandlers’ Union is active and he is a hard-hearted cit, indeed, who can“entirely escape from the multiplied appeal of these dime diggers, many of whom look. like honest workers and none of whom is likely to waste his “beg gings” in riotous living these P. V. days—P. V. being Post Volstead. Which might remind us that the coming winter will probably see more of this sort of thing in Seattle than in 10 years, and that unless some definite program is under- taken, the just and the unjust will equally suffer, only the unjust panhandler will have a better chance than the humble, honest worker, with three kid job. , and a wife, and no The labor unions of the city realize the seriousness of the situation impending, but having no cash reserves and, in many cases, having a considerable per cent of their own members out of work, the labor unions can do but little. The regular charitable organizations of the city and county are not fitted to deal with the situation and private relief is always haphazard and inconsequential. Seattle should at once unite to organize relief for the local unemployed, and, while it is yet summer, should prepare for the winter. Given efficient management, insuring a just deal to the local deserving, this work should pay dividends; certainly Seattle cannot afford to drift into another winter at the mercy of an itinerant army of homeless wanderers; an army swollen, too, by thousands of local workers out of a job.

England’s Way Out Great Britain is not paying her way, this year, and the govern- ment will have to borrow money to moet expenses next year, as well, But, there ls a way out. Germany must be told that she need not pay the war indemnity which the allies are taking from her, Two million British operatives are out of work. German manu- facturers are responsible very largely for this condition. To pay the indemnity, German labor is being forced to work for little wages. German products are en- tering neutral markets and re placing British goods. The credits thus created by Germany are us ed to pay the indemnity to Great Britain, but Great Britain in turn must make use of the indemnity money to pay unemployment in- surance to her own workingmen. This vicious circle can end on- ly in coniusion. Nobody wants to remit any of Germany's punish. ment; bat the present financial form of the punishment is react- ing against the allies themselves. It ts not the course of wisdom to continue in that direction. Once the British workingmen are put back ‘o work, Great Brit- ain’s exchequer deficit will begin to disappear. For, there will be greater wealth in the country and taxation will yield more. What re mains of the deficit can be made to vanish by governmental econo- mpyand by cutting down military expenses—for instance, by settling the Irish question, Congreamcoman Robertson says twcomen «Mould disarm.
