THINK AGAIN FOR JOHNSON

Mr.. jackson johnson, st. Louis
manufacturer, while admitting that a
railroad strike would have cost his
company 100000 a month, asserts
that he has been unable to get anyone
to explain to his satisfaction how
President Wilson's course was right.
Very well.
If Mr.. Johnson's factory should
catch fire would he have the fire de-
partment stand around and argue how
the building laws should be revised or
would he have them start Immediately
to extinguish the blaze?
If a surgeon is called upon to per-
form an operation to save a mans
life, would he have him first prepare
a thesis on the wrong mode of living
which made the operation necessary,
or should he go ahead at once and op-
crate?
If, to save city from destruction
by flood, it became necessary to cut
a dixie and submerge farmers wheat
field, would it not be better to do that
than argue over future methods of
flood control?

In the emergency the President and
Congress obeyed the old Roman Max
im-"Public welfare is the supreme
law" A prolonged railroad strike
would have cost the people of the
United States hundreds of millions
and inestimable suffering which no
future legislation could have squared.

prevented all that loss and misery
