UNIONS DO NOT DESIRE STRIKES.
John Mitchell Tells Yale Divinity Students
I,abor's Struggle Is an Upward One.

New Haven April 2O-''No strikes have been
begun against lowering OF wages and the standard
Of living" said John Mitchell before the Yale di-
vinity students to-day. The workngman IS justi-
fed in adopting such measures necessary for
the attainment OF better condition of living.
The impression of the prevalence of strikes is
exaggerated. Most persons fail to recognize that
they are exceptional. The average worlingman
loses less than day year in this way. a strike
lasts just twenty-three days, the average. and
the average employer carries on his business just
thirty years without strike
ut be said that labor unions desire
strikes because they ready for them than that
the United States wants because II has a large
feet and army. Unionism has made its mistakes,
but the life of is short and evolution is
There will be the ebb and flow. and the movement
is onward and upward.
1T has been said that large number of work
ingmen have become unsympathetic to the Church.
If this is so, there must be a reason. The Church
and the union both work for the betterment of and
the moral and intellectual uplift of mankind. If
asked to propose solution of the whole vexed
question of human endeavor. it would be TO apply
the Golden Rule to it,
