WHO STARTED THE STRIKE ?

Secretary Morrison is quoted as
saying "the American Federation of
Labor does not care whether or not
German gold started the Bridge
port strike" It is difficult to be-
lieve he was correctly quoted. No
matter whether it is right for the
allies to be allowed to buy munitions
here-as this country has repeatedly
bought munitions, in war time, from
them; no matter whether it is wrong
to sell American shells to kill Ger
mans-as Germans, when neutrals,
have persistently sold them to kill
combatants; no matter whether
there are good labor reasons to jus
tify the strike-the fact remains
that the invasion of this country by
the gold of an alien country is only
less offensive than its invasion by
the armies Of that alien country.
1t is a more dangerous thing to
have our economic system poisoned
and perverted by such an insidious,
fugitive, secret influence, than it
would be to have hostile troops on
our soil. If the American Fedora
tion Of Labor does not care whether
German gold started the strike, it
should be made to understand very
clearly and emphatically that the
rest Of America does care. If, alien
gold may create strikes in this coun-
try now, why not at time when
this country shall need, for its own
uses, the output Of munition factor
les? Surely to propagate the idea
that a foreign government may
come here and corrupt our people in
time like the present, is to weaken
the sentiment against such a proce-
dure at another time.
Organized labor faces the danger
Of making a frightful mistake in
this matter. It is in danger of losing
friends who have stood by it IN good
repute and i'll. It cannot afford to
take such a chance.

MUNITIONS PLAN OF ITALY

The government Of Italy has taken
hold of its problem of war NUM-
tions with a vigor that is highly
commendable. Its proceedings sug-
gest moreover the lines along which
it might become necessary for the
United States to proceed in the
event of this nation being at war.
Under the decree issued in Italy.
munitions establishments are practi-
cally taken over by the government.
Every establishment must make
what the government tells it to
make; it must produce according to
other designs and patterns than it's
own, or must provide it's own de-
signs and models to other factories,
despite patents and trade interests,
If the government directs. Work.
ers may be placed under martial law
II necessary to insure effective pro-
duction. Differences are to be arbi-
trated by commission whose per-
sonnel is provided for, and the de-
cision is to be without appeal.
Labor difficulties and incendiary
undertakings in munition works in
this country suggest what serious
conditions might obtain if this
country were at war. 1t would be

that this country would bs immune

The Washington times., 1915-07-21

from the troubles England has;
rather, by reason Of the fsctional
divisions Of sentiment here, our
troubles might easily be worse in
this regard than those Of any other
country. When even highly organ
lied Germany has trouble in the
Krupp works, which come near to
military precision Of control, it is
plain enough that this country could
be intrigued into far more serious
difficulties.
Should this nation have war there
would be need to give instant dem
onstration that the iron fist was to
be employed at every need. The civil
war provided lessons in suspension
of habeas corpus and enforcement Of
the rigors which. military necessity
entsils. It would be desirable to
give the copperheads Of today very
definite and early lesson in the ma
tion's powers of self-preservation.
Lincoln and Stanton showed how to
do the trick; let none imagine that
it is altogether safe to trife with
this Governpent. There has been
already too much squeamishness
about uncovering the full inwardness
of such affairs as fomented strikes,
incendiarism, bomb outrages, and
passport frauds; sGueamishness
based on the fear that to show the
full truth would prove that alien gov.
ernments have been doing unfriend-
y acts on our soil.
