Walk and Smile
Because You Have to Walk Anyhow

A ND now, brothers, we have the street car strike
"A upon u.s.
We are walking and taking things good
naturedly.
It is unlikely that there will be any kind of
violence. But even at that, the situation is not
healthy
In times of great national emergency, we can
i'll afford industrial paralysis of any kind.
The issue in this strike is clear The men de-
mand the right to organize. The company denies
them that right.
This issue between them is fundamental. To
most people in this country that issue is no longer
debatable The right to organize has been general
" accepted thruout the land. Employers organize
as we'll as employees Under modern industrial
methods, collective bargaining has become
necessity.
An individual workingman cannot bargain
with corporation like the Puget Sound Traction
Light & Power Co.
If he cannot bargain Individually, then we
must recognize his right to join with his fellow
workinQmen, for otherwise he is denied the oppor
tunty for a square deal.
The traction company by shutting its eyes
to the sunlight of equity and justice to its men, is
treating the public unfairly, by making the strike
possible.
In the meantime, you, Mr. Street Car Patron,
must walk AND SMILE
You'll have to walk anyhow.
