I have met Mr. Thomas twice. The record of the first interview. In the light of the sad ending of his colorful career, may be of interest to Americans because it reveals the man at his best, as well as raising certain questions relative to his

This I wrote during the

1921 sessions of the American S'-m-

is Mr. Thomas, and as Rowntree put it, he is ‘The Right Honorable Mr. Thomas' with heavy emphasis on the H of Honorable, and looms large in

his own horizon.

“He has but recently returned from America, and said, *1 find no difference whatever in the general outlook of the American and the British capitalist, they are in agreement in the desire to become millionaires. I w'as quite amazed thougl by the ignorance of people who ought to know in America, I refer to mer occupying responsible positions, directing great business concerns. They arc not only ignorant of the genera 1 world situation but fail to understand the outstanding fact of the hour namely that America cannot isolatt herself from the rest of the world."

The Inner Meaning

The great miner’s strike of 1921 had just ended. Thomas had but recently visited America and had seen President Harding concerning the strike. He said, “ ‘I talked to Harding,’ he referred to him as one might to his manservant, ‘about it. He ask ed me to discuss the matter. I said ‘Do you mean America’s part in it?’ He said, ‘What did America have to do with it?’ If you want to know the inner meaning of the British Miners’ Strike, you must know America’s relation. When America sent Wilson to Paris, regardless of his jealousy of having people around him. whatever he may have done that was bad, or whatever he may have failetl to do, he nevertheless was your President elected under your democratic constitution, therefore when Wilson came to Paris to help shape the world peace it was not a question of whether he was a Re-

Objections to the issuance of said bonds may be made hy ten or more

publican or a Democratic leader, he was the President and representative of the American state. The connection between that and the miner's strike is this: they refused to profit by the teaching of history. They did not try to visualize the world twenty or thirty years ahead and frame a peace to stand on then. “ ’For instance, Germany has nlenty of coal in the Ruhr Valley, !,000.000 tons per month is sent to •'ranee, hut this is more than Trance’s total requirement. It was nore than France’s total import beorc the war. At the moment we vere selling coal abroad at 8 and 9 wninds per ton. we were selling to >ur own people for 17s. We boro the oss at home through the tremendous irofit abroad. But because of ‘'ranee’s coal given through treaty. Trance now had surplus and sought Markets. She got coal for nothing, ind could undersell Britain in Italy nd Mediterranean ports. Belgium lecided to do the same thing, selling o Holland. Our employers found hey could not sell coal. The gov■rnment found it was losing 4.500,000 )ounds a month througli operating he mines, so that it at once decided o return the mines to their owners. Then coal owners said, 'If you lose, •ve will lose.’ They decided to cancel all agreements and contracts with labor. Then they worked out a scale of wages upon which mines could work economically. In some coal fields a reduction of 60 percent was called for. The miners said ‘No.’ Then they struck. This is the inner meaning of the coal strike. It was brought about by America, Great j Britain and France following the I policy of making Germany pay. I

said to Harding. ‘Wilson is responsible for it And then America sent coal over to heat the miners and made as much damn profit as possible.’ “ :Again, on the policy Germany must pay. Great Britain took 1,000,000 tons of shipping. The government sold this tonnage for 7 and 8 pounds per ton dead weight. I saw contracts cancelled by the payment of 50,000 pounds indemnity instead of pay :i7 pounds per ton. The result was that the shipbuilders were turned out of work hy making Germany p»y. “ 'Again, they said, let Germany go on selling her goods. If English manufacturer orders loot) P. from Germany, German manufacturer will take 500 P. and our government will take 500 P. The result was that Germany need not sell anything to us at all. So we reap the benefit of our policy. We owe you a great sum, but our loans almost balance us. “ ‘America is the only creditor na lion in the world. Forty-two percent of gold of the world is in Washington. Now America ought to he the happiest and most prosperous nation in the world. Yet there is no bank solvent in America today. An accii dent is preserving you. You have also 4 1-4 million unemployed. There is a critical situation in the rural sections. “’What is the moral? America cannot live alone. You are suffering in America because you have too many things, and people in other parts are suffering because they have nothing. This is due to the fact that those who control have failed to bring the two together.’ ”
