General business has slowed

ated a serious scarcity of labor;
tile result being that labor as a
class is uaprecedentedly prosperous
and inclined to spend freely and
demand still higher wages. The
strike ot today are incited by pros
peri'y and not bv -wage reductions;
thev are a part oi the general In
flationary moYeinent which Is
spreading OTer the whole© world,
and which has apparently not yet
run its full course. One of the
results oi the war has been to im
mensely stimulate the Industrial ac
tivity that would in any qvent hare

in a much less degree. Thia war
stimulus -will extend for some time
yet, some authorities sayingj the wa-r
will last for another year at least.
The progress oi the Allies is ex

tae resisting porwera o£ the Central
Powers are doubtless muchj greater

lies progress, the more desperate
the resistance they will have to
encounter. The managers of our
Industrial plants are, therefore, cal
