New YORK city has been seldom. II
ever. confronted with n more serious
labor situation than that OF to-day. BY
shutdown it il probable that 100000
workers. representing the bulk of the en-
ployees in various trades, will be on
strike.
Hut 1t is not only in New York city
that the situation is ominous. To-day.
May 1, strikes IN many lines OF indus
trial activity are TO he called II de-
mands presented by the workers are not
met. As an example. take the bakers.
some 100. 900 men. In New York city
alone there arc $1,000 Of them. In
every city OF any size the bakers have
demanded higher wages. II is likely
that tho demands will he met here. thus
preventing n Nalkout. but in other
cities II is learned the demands Will
not he met and there will be strikes.
That. however, rs only one of the unions
making demands. The spirit Of unrest Is
more general in New York h else
where. But II is spreading 10 every
nook and corner OF the country.
Unrest Traced tn Prosperity.
The reason for this unprecedented
condition. il is beloved. Is to he found
In the wave of prosperity that has swept
over the country line the war in Europe
began. especially during the last year.
Manufacturers OF almost every dcscrip-
ton Of goods have been swanped with
orders The demand for labor has in
consequence gone up by leaps n bounds
until to-day II can fairly he said To be
considerable in excess of the supply.
The working classes have seen that
manufacturing profits have mounted
high. and that the cost Of living a. well
has increased on all sides, The result
has been a general discomfort among
the workers and a determination To-
share in the prosperity.
The situation In New Nork is a pic
ture. II a somewha, highly colored one.
Of tho situation which this morning con-
fronts about every city in the country.

sions are granted by employers. there

painters, the carpenters. the mineral
water workers. the architectural ron
workers and bronze crcctors. the marine
workers. and last. though by no means
least. tho great horde of men and women
In the garment trades.
II is impossible TO foret"ll what would
be the effect Of a general strike by the
workers in every one a. these unions.
A strik. by the carpenters. for instance.
would throw out of employment the
stcamatters and plumbers. OF whom there
are some 10000 in the greater city. a
strike by the cement Workers might
tie up a half dozen trades connected
with building construction. A strike
by metal workers might have much the
same result. And SO II goes. A strike
movement so general as the one 20 be
begun to-day will have an effect upon
all classes OF workmcn which can
scarcely be measured now.
