24 REPUBLICANS TO AID GOMPERS TO MAINTAIN WAGES J. Bourne, Jr., Issues State ment in Reply to President of Federation of Labor Washington, N'ov. 22. The Tte publican Publicity Association, through its president. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., has given out the fol lowing statement from its Wash ington headquarters: "The declaration by Sumuel Oora pers that organized labor will resist to the uttermost any attempt to reduce, war-time wages or lengthen hours of labor is one that will be read with interest by all the people of the country, as also will any state ment he has to make as to the means by which the present high wages and short hours are to be maintained. 'To the extent that maintenance of high standards of wages and of conditions of labor are possible, Mr. Gompers will have the co-operation of the Republicans of the country. The Republican party has always endeavored to maintain an economic policy which makes possible the pay ment of the highest wages', and the observance of the shortest hours, and we believe the records will show that in time of peace American labor has been better paid under Republi can policies than under those im posed by the Democratic party, it is perhaps true that, on an average, hours of labor have been shortest under a Democratic administration, for in 1893 and 1913-14 millions of American working men found their hours of labor cut to nothing ; at all. "Having made his declaration re garding continued high wages and short hours. Mr. Gompers should explain specifically how he expects to secure and preserve a market lor the product of high wages and short hours in competition witli the pro duct of low wages and long hours from Europe and Asia. "Republicans hope iv> maintain the home market for American pro ducers. They hope that we shall be able to sell our surplus in the Mark ets we have gained during the war. We hope to accomplish this through a protective tariff, which will build up our home production to such a high quantitative basis that our unit cost of production will be low. thus enabling us to sell lite surplus in competition with all the rest of the world. "That is a specific statement or ihe methods by which the Repub licans would maintain high wages and short hours for American labor. "Now. will Mr. Gompers state j specifically his plan for enabling American labor to market its pro duct in competition with the rest of the world, for we must have a market for our products or we can have no satisfactory standard of wages and conditions of labor Traces Democracy to Martin Luther New York. —lie principles of ecclesi astical freedom, as expounded by Martin Luther, and deliverance from religious autocracy, were the themes of addresses delivered by speakers al the jubilee mass meeting of the ( United Lutheran Church in America, held in the Hippodrome. There were 5.000 men and women present and they expressed their full accord with the merger of the three bodies into which the Lutheran Church in the United States and Canada has hitherto "been divided. The spirit behind the merger war voiced in the declaration of the Rev. M. M. | Kinard. D. D., Salisbury. N. C. thai j "the people are tired of hearing il i said there are twenty-four denomi- ; nations of Lutherans." Declaring that the moulding of I the world at this time is being done by workingmen, as it is an age of democracv, the Rev. Frederick H. | Knubel, New Tork. president of the > United Lutheran Church, said it j rests with the people of the United, States to mould the world s taith. thought and life. Fn an address on "Luthcranism and Democracy," the Rev. David H. Bauslin, D. P., EL. D.. Springfield. Ohio, said Martin Luther was the anticipation of the American repub lic of this day. The events ot today were but a reaffirmation of tlie prin ciples of humanity uttered by Luther in the sixteenth century. The Rev. John A. \V. Haas, I). D. LL. D., in an address on "The -Mes sage of Lutheranism for the New Age," said November 11, 1918. will go down in history as one of Hie greatest days the world lias ever seen, the dav that marks the epoch of the political deliverance of mil lions of men. back of which lay November 10. 151,. the birthday oi Martin Luther. | "Germany." he continued, failed In 1848 to give its people just poli- j tieal freedom. 11 sowed the seed j of autocracy which finally destroyed I it and now it must come to freedom because freedom is a moral fact and a reality which cannot be destroyed. , We have the sympathy of those that labor and toll, but we do not believe men can create democracy out of themselves. Democracy will full un less It is founded on eternal prin ciple We must not at this time be subjected to all sorts of uprisings that will destroy peace, law and order and justice. Popular govern ment does not meun the right o any people to destroy law, order and institutions." ! Among the other speakers were the Rev. Theodore E. Schmuuk. t> D LL. D.. president of the torm er General Council: the.Rev. Victor G A Tressler, Ph. D„ D. D., presi dent of the former General Bnyod. and the Rev. M. M. Kinard. D P president of the former I nited .
