COLSTON, Colonel, From the beginning the chief problem of the Allies has been the organization for war of the great industries of production and transportation. For that organization the cooperation of labor is imperative. Both in England and in France the war has brought representatives of the' industrial classes to power in the government. Just as the men and women who are working in the munition plants and in the fields while they send their , boys to the trenches are forcing the displacement in England of the old official class which controlled Parliamentland the army, so in France the war has made the government more genuinely democratic, more representative of the whole people. Viviani the partisan, the radical, the repre sentative of labor, made more practical and more conservative by the heavy responsibilities that he has borne long and well, is a part of that movement in France just as Lloyd George i3 in Eng land. He has helped to carry gorward the complete subordina tion of party and person, of caste and creed, to the cause of country, which has given France the power to accomplish her tremen dous task.
