VALUE OF ARBITRATION.


The averting Of the threatened strike
Of the railroad engineers Is another
evidence that when everything else
fails-arbitration is the reasonable and
practical method of dealing with labor
disputes. A strike would have been a
disaster causing millions of dollars of
damage to commerce-and hardship
and suffering to strikers and their fam
lies. Properly applied, a little common
sense-mixed with willingness to
give and take-may be counted on to
accomplish much more than violence.
