A NONUNION STRIKE

The strike in the car works at Pittsburg is
an object lesson to economists and to students
of the labor problem. Its lesson is the mpor-
lance of the trade agreement to industrial
peace. This lesson implies another, and that is
the Importance of organization, both of EN-
ployed and employers for the trade agreement
is collective contract and is practicable only
with organized labor, that can meet upon re
sponsible and representative conditions organ
lied capital
The notable feature of this violent and bloody
strike at Pittsburg is that il is one of non union
men. Here is another proof, if proof were need
ed, that modern unionism, ntelligently conduct
ed, is an agency for peace. When an employer,
and more especially an impersonal employing
corporation, treats only with individual wage
earners, they are at the mercy of its self-made
terms. If man out of work applies to such "A
source for job, the question may be- not How
much pay do you ask?' but ''How little pay
will you take!" Alone, unaided, and with the
need of bread imperative the applicant has no
choice but to answer the second question as
shrewdly and as humbIy as he may But if he
belong to union that has an agreement with
the employer, he may demand and receive the
standard wage; and if the union perform its
duty, the worker will render full equivalent for
his pay. E .E -
1t has now become fact that the industries
most thoroughly organized are those most free
from strikes. When the time arrives for the
continuance or the modification of an agree
ment between workers and employers, the
representative of each side may meet in ami.
cable conference. 1t is for the advocates of
capital to prove that the condition of the partic-
ular industry concerned must lessen the factor
of labor cost or cease production, in ease they
wish to reduce the scale of wages 1t is for tn"
Spokesman of labor either to disprove such an
assertion of fact, and thus establish rightful
claim for continued or higher rate of wage
or else to accept demonstrated industrial con
dition and suffer with capital its share of re.
suits 1t is the organized capacity to fight that
makes possible these intelligent treaties of in
dustral peace, based upon mutual respect and
good faith.

THE COST OF GAMBLING

The Italian government does not hesitate to
publish the statistics about its system of lot
teries. Last year the people invested in them
over $16,000,000. OF this the government kept
la little more than half for its revenue and for
expense of administration. The winning buy
ers of tickets received less than half
But that is only part of the story. 1t APP
pears that the gambling instinct is coincident
with ignorance. Thus, in Como, where II per
cent of the dwelIers are lliterate, the average
expenditure for lottery tickets is 20 cents per
inhabitant in year. In Naples, where 81 per
cent are illiterate, the investment scars to $2S0
per capita. 1t is the boast Of the government
that these lotteries are honestly conducted If
that be true, and if investors get back less than
half their ventures, what is the percentage won
by fortunate" gamblers in this country!
There are no statistics upon which to base an
accurate answer. But it has been calculated
that in one game in Chicago the odds were such
that if ten men with $40 each should sit in I"
during one hundred turns of the card, every
one of them would be ''broke," even if the
game were on the square, 1t is also said that
the odds on horse-racing are SO nicely calcu-
lated that the chances of winning are even less.
Perhaps experience, as in other forms of fol-
lily, is the most thorough schoolmaster in gamb-
ling, if the dearest. But the Italian statistics
seem to prove that ignorance and stupidity are
characteristic of those who persistently Woo
the false goddess of chance. The evil OF lot
teries however honestly" conducted, is the
same as the evil of all forms of gambling; that
is the stimulation of the desire to gain without
rendering an honorable equivalent. The sin
goes back to the inhibition Of the Decaogue
"Thou shalt not covet" Not money, but the
love of money, is the root of evil
