The Employer, tho Union and tho Man.
From the Los Angeles rimas

From the Los Angeles Times.
me effect of the supreme court decision
In the union labor case under the so-called
coercion statute of Kansas simply puts the
eights OF all parties-employers, employees
and labor unions-on a basis Of equality.
a LABOR union accepts or rejects It's mem
oers on Its own conditions. An employer
engages his men or discharges them on his
own conditions. The worker has the ut
most freedom in choosing between the
either. AA'e' opoAA
II both the employer and the union are
agreeable, he may adhere to both. If the
union makes 1t a condition of membership
mat he abandon the employer. he must
him hinlp, OFT. II cen rsfnsss, sh Il q the e may sar
makes it a condition that he shall leave
the union, he must comply. If he refuses,
the employer may discharge him.
The rule seems to be absolutely logical.
IT is IN accord with the strict demands Of
fair play. It is not a blow at the reason
able operation of unions. 1t simply dis
solves an alliance between unionism and
the law mak.ng power which left the en-
ployer helpless to choose his own assist
ants.
The decision draws the teeth Of the Kan
eas statute which made 1t unlawful for
any one to coerce or influence another to
make an agreement not to belong. to a la
Dor union as a condition of employment,
Fourteen states altogether have similar
laws, so the decision will have a poten-
tally sweeping effect. 1t must be remem-
Dered, however, that the extreme position
assumed by the st. Louis & San Francisco
railway, of Scott. Kan. in this case Is
very unusual. being the reversed case Of
the closed. The attitude OF the employer
who does not freely accept unionism is
usually in favor of the open shop.
This the unions habitually combat by the
exclusion or expulsion Of men who are
willing to work with non-un1onists. Ac-
cording to the reasoning Of Justice Pitney
such action would seem to be prohibited
from this time forward.

feet Of the present decision may be, in the
long run, to promote by protecting the
open shop i6ea rather than to encourage
the extreme policy of exclusion on the EN-.
ployer's part. In any case, this decision
IL undoubtedly a great victory for this
Just cause Of Industrial fairness.

Across the sea I heard h Kroans
OF nations in the intervals
OF wind and wave. Their blood and bones
Cried out In torture, crushed by thrones,
And sucked by pr1estly cannibals.

BY martyr meekness, patience, faith,
And 10! an athlete grimly :tained
With corded muscles battle-strained,
Shouting 1t on the fields of DEATH,

Among the clamoring thousands mute:

And that the children OF the light
Shall tread the darkness nder foot
I know that pent fire heaves its crust,
hat sultry skies the bolt will form
To smfte them clear; that nature must
The balance Of her powers adjust,
Though with the earthquake and the

God reigns, and let the earth rejoice!
I bow before His sterner plan,
Dumb are the organs OF my choice;
He speaks in battles stormy voice,
His praise Is in the wrath Of man.
Yet, surely as He lives. the day
OF peace He promised shall b. ours,
To fold the flags of war and lay
Its sword and spear to rust away,
And SOW its ghastly fields with flowers.
