Indianapolis, Sept H-D NJ. Parry, Of
indianapolis, has taken a cudgel 10 both
William J. Bryan and Senator Albert 7
Beverldge. for their views on the labor
question as expressed in their debate in
the Reader Magazine, and has prepared
keen and peppery article. in which he
scores both for evasion, faHacious rea-
soning and trucking u the labor vote.
Mr.. Parry handles both the Reader dis
putants without gloves. He SAYS:
THE real labor question is whether men
in an organized capacity shall ID be per
mitted a special license to violate law
and t2) whether they shall be granted
special favors by government at the ex-
Pense Of the whole people. The unions
assume the power 10 deny, by forcible
means If necessary, the right Of a non
member to work where, when and Tor
what he pleases, and the right Of the en-
ployer TO hire whom he pleases and to
manage his own capital as he sees lit
under the law. Also the unions are par
ticularly clamorous for special favors
from government
Eyade the Real Question.
Tho labor question is thus one i'm
posed on the country by the efforts OF
organized labor to use its power in an
way. and it is this attempted
abuse of power which occasions all in
dustrial troubles and constitutes the en-
tire capital-labor controversy. Tho real
labor question has nothing 10 do with
the right Of labor 70 organize for legiti-
mate ends, and when confning their ef-
forts within The sphere OF the lawful
the unions DO in important ways serve
the best ends Of society.
Do Mr. Bryan and AIr. Beveridge ad-
dress themselves 10 the labor question as
/ nave here stated il? no. They would
rot dare 10 DO it. The union labor man is
"a Yoter-a very hard voter II please. and
still harder 10 keep pleased But hor
-rr of horrors. il he isn't pleased there
IS the fatal roll OF the political enemies
)f labor edited from day To dav by Mr.
ioI-pers. And If Mr.. Bryan or our dear
senator should get his name on that roll
I would be cataclysmic, Could tbev tell
no unions thar when they strike when
hey abandon their employment their
members should leave the place where
hey had worked. and not molest in anv
way their former employer. or the man |
he hires in their stead? Could they ten
hem tnat their proposed class legislation /

ave a labor debate, which, in point OF
