statement dealing with the fear ex-
pressed in some quarters, he says. that
tho oTga nIzation of the Cancellation de-
partment of the federation might be
responsible for the strikes and threats
OF strikes that have arisen lately. He
says the federation is not responsible
and adds that the true cause of these
strikes shoulc De looked for in the
saQeral conditions Of industry and
labor. He adds that he asked the ed
itor OF Bradstreets for an opinion on
recent stf kes, and received the fol-
lowing answer:
I'm reply 10 your inquiry I would
say that / consider the present apDear-
ance of unrest in several industrial
lines as due primarily to the natural
desire of the workers 70 obtain a Iarg-
er share Of the prosperity which has
ruled III general business for some
years past II has been noted that in

the phenomena connected with great
upward or downward movements in

ductiors in wages opposed.
