Whom Do Strikes Benefit?
To the Editor OF The Star:


In view of the recent epidemic of strikes
1t is in place for all parties to ask whom
they benefit. Presumably they are ex-
pected to benefit the strikers. Do they on
the whole? In the last twenty years the
loss to workmen through strikes has
amounted to the enormous sum of $3O7 =
100000: to employers, barely half that
sum- The loss to the general public can
not be estimated. Today every working
man, every poor Washwoman is paying
In the price of coal for the great coal
strike of 1902 an that strike the workers
lost in wages s25000,0O0. besides nearly
unions. These are tidy sums. They are
worth considering by thoughtful work.
men. This is the financial side. But a
more serious loss to all parties is the
weakening In regard to law. When strikes
become adjuncts of assaults. maimngs
sale destruction of property, they raise
questions of the highest Importance to
all citizens. whether they are working
men or employers or neither. A settle
ment of expediency or for political ext
gency is no settlement. 1t is make
shift and will not long satisfy either
party. In time the whole question will
have to be fought over again, with proba-
bly, more disastrous results than ii it had
been carried through and ended at first.
1t Is always true that nothing Is really
settled until it is settled right, and there
can be no right and final settlement with
out a recognition OF moral obligation.
Legal obligation is not enough. The whole
history of labor troubles proves this
Bitter wrongs may be committed on either
side which law does not reach. The chief
end of man is not to keep out of Jail, but
when the law itself is defed. it's judges
and courts denounced. it brings up ques-
ton quite as important to the working
man as to the employer. Only as he has
the protection of the law is the worker
himself safe anywhere. Nine-tenths of
our American born laborers recognize
this. They have a sense, too. of moral
obligation. Are they wise in allowing
themselves to be drawn into strikes for
any reason or for no reason at ALL" even
though their legal right to do this may be
unquestionable? Does it pay? Would
they not have been as we'll off If they had
kept the $500, ,OOO, 900 in their own pockets?
