GERMANY HAS SETTLED DOWN
TO REAL PRODUCTION
She is Outstripping United States
and Allies in Fight Towards Nor
malcy. Says Schwab People Must
Economise and Co to Work at
Reasonable Wages.
Germany through the economy and
sacrifices of her working people, has
settled down to real production and
is outstripping the United States and
allied nations in the fight t6wards
normalcy, Charles M. Schwab de
clared in New York Thursday inan
address before the Chamber of Com
merce of the State of New York.
Quoting frcm a New York dispatch:
Mr. Schwab was the guest of the
chamber at a reception given fn rec
ognition of his service to the country
during the war.
"Germany today can put a ton ff
steel in England at a price $20 a ton
cheaper than England can make it,"
he said, "and i8 selling pneumatic
tools in Detroit where formerly we
shipped such machinery to Germany
and sold it cheaper than she could
make it.
"The difference is solely a matter
of labor costs.
It is estimated that 5,000,000 men
are out of work in this country. It
is, accordingly, of supreme impor
tance to the workingman as well as
to the capitalist to restore our pros
perity. "Never before was the need for
nrodurts so creat. never before was
' such ' valuable producing machinery I
and facility available, never before
was there so much that needed to be
done.
"I have just returned from Europe,
and I came with renewed admiration
for the courage, the enterprise, the
determination displayed in Italy, Bel
gium, France and England. Germany
was ahead of all of them in produc
tion. "It is possible that after having
won the war, we of the allied nations,
with everything in our hands, will
allow Germany to win the peace
through the efforts of her labor?
"Labor on the whole can be paid
only what labor as a whole earns,
and if some sections of labor exact
more than their share of the current
produce of the world, other sections
are going to suffer. I understand
that our railroads today pay to labor
over sixty cents out of every dollar
received. The labor costs of making
a ton of steel today is 85 cents out
of each dollar of total cost.
"Labor costs underlie our railroad
difficulty. They are the cause of the
excessive railroad rates. We former
ly sold pig iron at a profit at about
$14 a ton. Today the total freight
rates involved in making a ton of
pig iron are more than $14.
"But tne railroads cannot give ser
vice even at present rates with their
existing costs.
"Railroad costs must come down
and'it is in the interest of national
prosperity that our government, act
ing through the Railroad Labor Board
and every other agency, shall reduce
railroad wages and bring costs down
to a tfving point.
"The same situation confronts our
merchant marine. In operating, and
repairing ships, labor costs are hope,
lessly high. That this is true is shown
by the millions of tons of shipping
now lying idle, the great number , of
shipyards with no work to do and the
hundreds of thousands of idle shipping
and shipbuilding workmen.
"Insofar as our people in America
are prepared to go to work at reason,
able wages, insofar, as we are pre
pared quickly to abandon the artificial
extravagances of the war, will we
lay the foundations for a new pros
perity such as we have never enjoyed
before.
"This is the route through which
not merely America but the peoples
of our allies can fiild their wy out,
and triumph in peace as they did in
war."

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This is vastly more Important because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri
ties Into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
it quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts which,
should suck only nourishment to sus
tain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glas of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate m it,
which is a harmless way to wash
these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos
phate costs but very little at the drug
store but Is sufficient to make anyone
an enthusiast on inside-bathing. Men
and women who are accustomed to
wake up with a dull, aching head or
have furred tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, sallow complexion, others who
have bilious attacks, acid stomach or
constipation are assured of pro
nounced improvement in both healU
and appearance shortly.
