ABE AND MORRIS DEBATE
IT SOME MORE

81 see from an advertising in the
Tramway Englewood street car this
morning." said Abe Potash to his
partner, Morris Perlmutter, as they
grabbed rear seat on the 5:37 En-
glewood, "that this here Tramway
street car company had to borrow a
quarter of a millyun dollars to pay
their bills with"
"What diffidence does it make if
they have to borrow a quarter of a
millyun?" Morris inquired. "If l was
so broke had to borrow $3.50 to pay
my bills, Abe, would the Tramway
street car company so much as pass
resolutions of sympathy for me,
Abe?"
"Sure, l know" replied Abe, "but
if you wasa borrowing money to pay
bills and them fellers went around
telling your creditors, Mawruss, that
you was making barrels of money and
could easy pay your bills out of your
own pocket, you'd want Teddy Rosen-
felt to call them names for you, Maw-
russ, and with the Tramway it's the
same"
"You may be right" said Morris.
81 see the paper says this United
States Department of War Labor
Board says they looked into the prop
osition and decided the street car rail-
way business was a fine business to
give free for nothing to somebody
you'd like to murder. Them War La
Dor Party fellers say that the Tram
way street car company must got to
have a fare increase just to pay the
help and run the cars, with nothing
over to sweeten the pot"
"There y'are," said Abe, trium-
phantly.
II don't believe it," retorted Morris.
"A motorman told me the other day
that his conductor told him that the
night watchman at one of the car
barns said he had it straight already
that if the Tramway street car COM
pany was run economically, y'under-
stand, without none of them high sal
aries and extravagances, they wouldn't
need no more than &c"
Being in on the inside, in direct
correspondence with the President and
the Board of Directors, so as to speak,
he should ought to know, Mawruss," /"
replied Abe. "a good practical man
like that what can save a total of S10,-
900 out of $4,000 expenditures, say, is
being wasted on a carbarn. / know

"Aber what have them lowlifes done
to help, Abe?" said Morris. "You
amt heard them gougers doing moth
ing, Abe, to stop this here carfare
thing. How much did they cut down
them high salaries, Abe? Oder a
Stuckv'
"Well, Mawruss, / read it report
from a feller who had gone over the
ycutive officers together and saved
all their salaries, you wouldn't save
enough to pay the rest of the employees
for four days. Which would leave,
Mawruss, 361 days yet to go. So
you're worser off than when you
started, because you got it nobody to

kick about to the newspapers, and
you're still about $50O,OOO short of
paying wages. All these here fellers,
Mawruss, which put up hypo-critical
cases of how they'd pay a $5O0,OOO
bill with a $4,000 saving in scraps
and cuttings and salaries got the same
kind of a proposition as Jake Winn-
owitz. Jake started out to see Europe
on a 50 bill, and took taxi-oitermo-
bile down to the boat, and when he
got down to the wharf the shofer had
the 81 bill and Jake he never did see
Europe. Them fellers which expect
to save 100000 with a $4,000 cut
would get just so far as Jake"
But look at all them big improve
ments them crooks made" protested
Morris. Thousands of dollars they
spent"
"Sure, 1 know" replied Abe. "But
you and me neither of us ever heard
the Tramway street car company beg
ging to make. them improvements
Didn't lot of good sitsons of Denver
demand at the Public Utilities Com
nittee up at the Capitol that this here
improvementing be done oder the de
fendant corporation be thrown in Jail,
without food if possible? And didn't
the Public Utilities Committee order
the defendant corporation to do the
improvementing? Am l right or am
/ wrong?"
maybe we amt got no call to kick
about that under the circumstances,
Abe" said Morris, "but what have
them fellers done to stave off this in
creased fare? Nothing, Abe?"
well, Mawruss," replied Abe, "you
got to admit them fellers was paying
more for everything ever since early
1915, amt it?"
"Sure," said Morris.
''They didn't stick US for more car
fare for almost three years after
prices went up, did they?"
That's the truth, Abe"
"And even then they only stuck us
for 1c raise, didn't they?"
yes; but look at what they are
trying to knife US for now, Abe.
Eight cents it is; not six"
"Sure, l know" replied Abe, "but
they would of rather not. Them fel-
lers running the Tramway street car
company don't like any eight cents,
get yer. Six cents would have been
enough, Mawruss, even if the pickings
on six cents amt so thick as to cause
them fellers worry about the eXces-
ed States National War Labor Board
comes along and says pay $5O0,000
more wages for the next six months
and oh, sure, before we forget it-add
S135,000 in back pay to that And
so it goes. Them Tramway street car
fellers might not want to start no
trouble with eight cents, knowing the
pleasure which it gives the people to
see taxes oder prices rise on every
thing except what they've gotto sell
themselves, y'understand, but these
street car railways can't help them
selves. Either they gotta bring up

upon his living carefully up to the let
ter of his pronunciamento.
Mr.. Rockefeller's statements were
made at the war emergency and re-
construction conference here.
Asserting that capital and labor are
partners with common interests, and
not enemies, Mr.. Rockefeller stated
ten tenets of his industrial creed
These included advancement by in
dustry of social as well as material
well-being of employees; opportunity
by employees. to earn living under
conditions of fair wages, reasonable
hours, and proper industrial environ
ment; reward for initiative and eff
cheney; machinery for uncovering and
promptly adjusting grievances; ade-
quate representation of all the indus
trial parties, with annual joint confer
ences, to assure industrial harmony
and prosperity in each plant, with this
system extended "to include all plants
in the same industry, all industries in
a community, in nation, and in the
various nations"
Mr.. Rockefeller added:
"As the leaders of industry face
this period of reconstruction, what
will their attitude be? Will it be that
of the stand-patters, who take no ac-
count of the extraordinary changes
which have come over the face of the
civilized world and have taken place
in the minds of men, who say what
has been and is must continue to be-
with our backs to the wall we will
fight it out along the old lines or go
down with the ship; who attempt
stubbornly to resist the inevitable and,
arming themselves to the teeth, in
vite open warfare with the other
parties in industry, the certain out
come of which will be financial loss,
inconvenience, and suffering to all,
the development of bitterness and ha-
tired, and in the end the bringing about
thru legislation, if not by force, OF
conditions far more drastic and rad
Denver labor bulletin., 1918-12-28

ical than could now be amicably ar
rived at thru mutual concession in
friendly conference?
"Or will it be an attitude, in which
1 myself profoundly believe, which
takes cogniZance of the inherent right
and justice of the principles underly-
ing the new order, which recognizes
that mighty changes are inevitable,
many of them desirable, which, not
waiting until forced to adopt new
methods, takes the lead in calling to-
gether the parties in interest for a
round-table conference, to be held in
a spirit of justice, fair play, and
brotherhood, with view to working
out some plan of cooperation which
will insure to all those concerned ade-
quate representation, sn opportunity
to earn fair wage under proper
working and living conditions, with
such restrictions as to hours as shall
leave time not alone for food and
sleep, but also for recreation and the
development of the higher things of
