CHIEF ARTHUR of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, declares
that he is unalterably opposed to
strikes, and will never sanction an
other. If reduction of wages should
be ordered, as is expected soon on all
mission. and under no circumstances
agree to strike. Chief Arthur is
right, though engineers may not agree
with him. and for that reason refuse tt
re-elect him to the position which he
now holds. The ''Q' strike proved
if it proved anything, the futility Of
strikes. This it did by showing that
there is a surplus of engineers ready tt
be drawn on by railway companies il
1 case of strike; men who are ready t.
fill vacancies at reduced wages, ant
without higgling about conditions
: While such condition continues, t
strike is merely to play the bull but
} ting the locomotive off the track. TIL
3 striker is the one who suffers, and nc
the railway company.
