PREVENTED MANY STRIKES
Excellent Work Done Under Canadian
Industrial Disputes Investi-
cation Act.

The chief feature of the beneficient
Canadian act called the industrial dis
putes investigation act was the re-
quirement that, in the event of a dis
pute arising In any industry known as
public utility, II should be illegal to
resort to a strike or lockout until the
matters In dispute had been made the
subject of an investigation before a
board of Cancellation and investigation
to be established under specified rules
by the Canadian minister OF labor.
During the two years from March
~, 1907, to the end of March, 1909, SO
applications were received for the APP
pointment of boards, under which 40
boards were set up.
On the 55 applications received
strikes were avoided or ended In 25
coal mines and four metalliferous
mines. In 10 railroads and three street
railways, In two bodies of longshore-
men, In one body of teamsters and in
one body of sailors. and In two indus
tries not public utilities. There were
two cases In which strikes were not
averted or ended. Only two cases.
therefore. out of 55 ultimately resulted
In strikes. these two strikes being In
perfect accordance with the wise
terms of the act, which permit own
ers to lock out their men and work
men to strike after the public inves-
tigation has been completed and its
results published.-Charles w. Eliot,

Perhaps the largest cost the world
over, is the maintenance of ever grow

of war and the cost of pensions are
somewhere near equal. Every large
nation Is taxed heavily TO support large
armies and navies. A still greater TAX
is that involved in Withdrawing from
industry the service OF millions of men
