There are several such social dis eanes which I could name, and prob- ably several others which would be revealed by a searching investiga. tion. But here I shail point out only Pon ogg ss by far the most im- portant. This is the unstable money | growing out of the war But what has unstable money to do with recent labor unrest? We do not remember seeing any mention of it In the newspapers. Yet to find it we do not have to seek far. We can trace our way back in three simple steps from the recent political demonstra tion of labor discontent to un- lemployment as the grievance which, | [more than any other, caused labor | |to make its recent political commo-| tion. The English labor preelec-| tion “manifesto” said, among other things: “Unemployment and low wages, caused largely by the policy of the Nberal and unionist government, have brought distress to the bulk) of the working people.” Since the election in which labor | came off second best, the unem- ployed have been demanding a hear-| ing with Bonar Law. i In other words, labor in England! held the Lioyd George government | responsible for the vast unemploy- | ment during the last two years and | will hold the Bonar Law govern. | ment responsible for putting an end| hed unemployment. The opportunity to work Is like | | wise the demand of the Fancisti in| jitaly. In America also the back-| | swing of the last election im largely because of the depression of trade| and unemployment Next we trace back this depren-| sion of trade and unemployment, whether in America, England, Italy, or elsewhere, to the fall of pricos| in 1920 and 1921, Always and in-| | evitably a great fall of prices kilia| enterprise, closen factories, discour. | | ages farmers and throws men out} of work.
