PPPIPWPp " -"-" ' TALKS ON LABOR TOPICS JBy Max Hayes". v War Demagogues Losing Grip. We are peridically regaled with sanguinary reports that Germany and France or England and Ger many are about to grapple in,.a struggle that would spell disaster to millions. If the jingo editors and the 'demagogic politicians had their .way there would be war. But they wont hae their way"; they are losing their grip on the mass es who are expected to kill and maim each other. The unions and socialist organ izations of Germany, France, England, Russia, andMther coun tries have declared against war. They correctly express" the opin ions of the commonv people in this respect, and they are doing more to preserve the peace of Eu rope than all The Hague confer ences and Carnegie peace funds ever devised. i Labor, Turkey's Peace Hope" In the' present war between Italy and Turkey thelatter coun try has been able to turn nowhere for aid and comfort to end hos tilities except . the International Socialist bureau at Brussels. President Ahmed" Riza, of the Turkish parliament has appealed to the bureau in the name of a common humanity to use its ip fluence' to prevent the, despolia tion and partition. of his country, and the socialisms' are now'ihaug jirating a general agitation to end the war and settle all disputes involved by arbitration. Up to within a year or so labor unions were not tolerated in Tur key. The young Turks were near ly as uncompromisingly opposed to working 'class organization as was the old regime. - It was the Italian Immigrants who largely planted the seeds of the' new movement of labor and thereby incurred the hatred of the Turkish exploiters. Yet the or ganized working class of Italy, was denounced the war and is de manding peace, and the Italian government fearing that it might be driven from power, has post poned the general parliamentary elections.
