Compulsory Investigation of Industrial
Disputes Under Colorado's Neu Law

ulate demands for higher wages, and sup
pose it is urged that they go on strike
May !. Some one suggests that it would
be better to postpone the strike one
month, or until June /, and that this
date complies with law requiring thirty
days notice. Suppose the employees ac-
tually agreed to comply with this law
and did so by giving the thirty days
notice. This is a concrete example of
how the law operates. Can it be said
that such action and such continuance of
work amount to slavery, The employees
have simply advanced the time at which
they will put their demands into effect.
They have merely postponed the resort
to force in the hope that force will not
be necessary. The employer knows thai
their right to strike has not been taken
away from them and that back of their
demands is this potential right which
may be exercised.
No Element of Slavery.
Often the knowledge OF this potential
right to strike is of more value to work
ingmen than the actual resort to the
strike itself. The public has an interest
in the matter and has a right to de-
mand that all peaceful means be ex.
hausted before the strike or lockout is
resorted TO. If this be slavery, then we
must find a new meaning for that term.
Ii does not comprehend a single element
of slavery.
Very often trade agreements provide
for thirty days notice before going
on a strike which would bring about com
pulsory work just as truly and effec.
lively as this law brings about eompul-
sory work. The only compulsory labor
the American nation recognizes or ever
will recognize is a compulsory labor i'm
posed upon eeyry man based upon the
Divine law that man shall earn his bread
in the sweat of his brow.
II is not surprising that some employ
ers or employees chafe under the restraint
OF eompulsion. The two forces of capital
and labor have been almost sovereign in
their power. Public Officials have been
afraid TO deal with them. They have
been allowed TO work out their own in
dustrial disputes but both OF these pow
erful and valuable forces in American
life. must be brought under complete re
straint Of law.
Deprived OF No Rights
Another objection has been that the
law interfcres with the power Of the
union to collectively bargain and make
it, own terms There are three answers
TO this objection:
Ia The Commission never uses its
own power 10 compel the two sides to
bargain together IL they themselves will
voluntarily get togethr and bargain.

a fine example of the best type of Amer

No one could have witnessed the general
conformity of the trades unions in Colo

that labor unions do not obey the law.
The State Federation of Labor has sent
out a letter of instructions TO every
union affiliated with that organization,
notifying them OF the steps necessary to
fonform to the law, and urging them to
keep within the law in all disputes.
I believe that the great majority of
labonng men in Colorado have come to
see clearly the great advantage this law
brings. There are some individual labor
leaders who have not yet endorsed the
law nor the principles behind IL; some
of them are in "A mood to be convinced,
