Lets Abolish Strikes.

Strikes have almost gone ont Of fashion Laboring
nov avoid them as earnestly employers always
have Arbitration IS the solution OF labor disputes
Strikes are wastefuI of time money and materials
Strikes cause untitled contracts and untitled market bas
kets. Strikes cause community disturbances an unset
ting of credit sometimes failures, always hatred and
often bloodshed
strike won leaves the employer resentful and de-
termned TO "get even" way, If possible. strike
lost leaves the aborers Pnched suen and determined
to do as little as possible for what they received.
Arbitration is the practcng Of the principle Of give
and take It is the spirit Of compromise. It Is the di-
vision in the middle giving each side half the cake
For instance carpenters strike in Tucson has Just
been called off and the differences between mechanics and
their employees arbrated The carpenters received $3.50
day. They wanted s., couldn't get it. and called
strike The arbitrators fixed the scale at $3.50 II
more than S45O and less than S. It was more
than the men had been receiving and less than the
which the employers had refused to pay
Thus both sides won. That is a good way to termi-
nate dispute and nowadays most Of labor troubles
are being thus terminated

It and it hurts rather than helps their cause. :
If those who sympathze with the men now on strike,
wish to help them wish to excite the sympathy Of the
public for the cause of the men, they will do well to
exert every effort to carry the fight forward in
