BY Ben. Tillett
This is labor's greatest triumph of
a century Not only are one hundred
thousand workers and their families
benefited by the increase of wages
which enables them to moet the
cruelty high cost of living but they
receive material reductions in the
hours Of labor giving them, for the
first time in their lives. the oppor-
tunity of recreation and getting TO
know their families Heretofore they
toiled all of their waking hours.
But far more important than the
material benefit has been the demon

wage Garner. The forces of capital

that united labor can enforce the
rights of the workers through their
control Of the food supply of the ma
ton
Our coronation strike" has also
been a mighty protest against the
barbaric splendor or the coronation
spectacle with the waste of millions
Of pounds which properly expended
would have mitigsted the wretched-
ness Of the poor.
The loyalty and discipline of the
organized workingmen has been sup
erb. Instances of violence has been
few and widely isolated. Many of
the reported fights we're deliberately
encouraged by the city police who
wanted the troops sent here to take
control The orderly manner In
which this strike has been conducted
from the outset until its happy termi-
nation has been most remarkable
considering the vast number OF
strikers.
There has not been a single fatality
and labor is proud of the result.
