Eagerness to learn of the plans of
the Remington Arms Company,
whose great emergency plant of thir-
teen units was built with a special
view to conversion at the end of hos
tlllties, has stimulated the growth
of new industry hcre-the devel-
opment and distribution of rumors.
That the company will make cash
registers, adding machines, type

oft repeated. Moreover, every one

Its geographical position. since last
summer. The Machinists' Union
signed a working agreement with the
New York Air Brake Company at
that time. Now they charge that
the agreement was broken in many
ways and that after the signing of
the armlstlce the company discrimi-
mated against the leaders by dis
charging them, even in cases where
they were old and faithful employees.
A combination of petty grievances
against the company is one explana-
ton for the attitude of the workers.
who claim that for the last twenty
five years the company has not played
fair with them, a charge which the
company officials deny.
The men are now seeking a
straight eight hour day with the
same pay as for a ten-hour day.
They also want closed shop. The
company, on the other hand, asserts
1t IS willing to take its old men back,
but declares its unwillingness to be
dictated to by imported labor leaders
and agitators. A curious thing in
connection with the strike situation
is that the moulders of the Air Brake
Company, the men who work in the
foundry, are welded into a strong
union organization, but have refused
to go out on strike in sympathy with
the Machinists' Union.

Mediation Thus
Far Has Failed

When the machinists' union an
nounced three weeks ago that
strike had been called, effective
March 3, the company countered
with lockout The brake plant
was closed down for a week, during
which time not a wheel turned. Dur
ing the shutdown the company gave
the workers desirous of continuing
on the job an opportunity to sign an
agreement, with pay allowed for the
time lost during the walkout. When
the plant resumed operations, on
March 10, substantial working
force was on hand, including some
of the strikers, and the latest esti-
mate of the management is that out
of 1,5O0 men all but 400 are at
work. The strikers dispute the fig
ures and claim that the strike is be-
ing successfully carried on

RadicaHsn Of
Various Species

movement into this agricultural dis
trict has come some of the other
natural concomitants. Most of the
leaders Of the strike are men of
soclalistic tendencies. They deny
they are |. W. WIS and Bolshevists.
but confess to radicalism of other
species. A meeting was held the
other night by the principal movers
in the strike. James Manson, presi-
dent of the Trades Assembly of
Watertown, is a leader of the ma
chinists' union which is backing the
strike.
1--WE are here to organize an
army of unemployed" Manson, who
is Socialist and one of the leaders
of the party here, told his follow
ers. I'VE might not have enough to
organize a whole regiment at this
time, but | think we have enough
for company. The more we get in
the army the more dangerous
we will be. Men are not
dangerous until they become
hungry. BY and by it will be fight
or starve. What are we going to
do? We have heard of the Boil
sheviki in Russia, Germany and
England. They couldn't stop them
there. If things continue we will
have Bolshevists here. Maybe they
can stop US, but l don't be-
lieve it. The army Of the unem-
ployed has it in their own hands
and when they get to be a great
hungry army they are going to do
something" Yet there is no general
unemployment in Watertown, ex-

concerned. Most Of the munition

As the Future Appears
To the Socialist

I'm trying always to take rea-
sonable and scientific viewpoint it
seems to me that we are unable to
see very far ahead excepting on
broad general principles. For in
stance, it appears to be inevitable
that labor will agitate unconsciously
rather than premeditatedly for a
greater and still greater share of
the value of its products until, as in
the case Of the railroad, industry
after industry breaks down and gov
eminent operation and ownership
lntervenes in order to keep industry
functioning. Taking this broad gen
eral view it is Idle to speculate as
to the precise direction that labor
Will move next. Psychological fac

little dream to-day. | am not so
much concerned with beatifc visions
of what we would like to see real
lzed as IN the stern necessities which
we must recognize in order to es-
cape serious social friction or pos
sibly violent revolution. And it is
because | realize that the workers
have more to lose by violence than
other classes that | am opposed to
everything that leads, even indi-
rectly to violence where violence
can be evaded. 1t seems clear to
me that since the large majority
OF wage workers are still pressed
closely for daily necessities, while at
the same time they read of the
10000 or more new millionaires
made by this war, and while the
inequalities Of life are more appar-
ent than ever before, the one safe
attitude for every lover of his kind
and for every true American to take
is to help in the social readiust
ment by such degrees as shall in
volve the least jar. In other words.
we want to conserve all that is good
IN the old while we are making the

Prosperity and Unrest
Products OF the Far

War brought prosperity to Water
town. 1t also brought in it's train a
spirit OF unrest among the working
classes. The New York Air Brake
Company, the leading industry here,
Which is the second largest manufac-
turer of railway airbrake equipment,
went into the munitions business on
a giant scale, building several large
war plant units, where it turned out
huge amounts of shells and other
war-making devices, both for the
Allies and the United States.
In its search for skilled and un-
skilled labor to operate the war
plants the company combed the coun-
try. 1t had to compete in it's search
for labor with the thousand and one
other munition concerns seeking men.
1t imported approximately 5000
workers. Many came from the farms
of the surrounding country. Others
came from the large industrial CEN
tres. The newcomers from the in
dustrlal centres brought with them
many of the radical ideas of the new
labor movement and transmitted
them to the old workers. SO long as
there was plenty of work nothing
happened. But when the war ended
and the war business halted, necessi
tatlng the turning off of the huge
surplus of workers, trouble began.
For a time Watertown was a CITY
full of unemployed. Most of the float
ers have since left for other more
promising fields of employment, but
the spirit of unrest remained behind,
and now Watertown, three hundred
miles away from the great centre of
congested population, has been
thrown into the turmoil of labor
war.
Watertown's predicament is inter
estlng, for it is symptomatic. 1t is
what is happening in many other
small towns and cities the country
over. The labor party is we'll organ

human tide of war work
ers at the munitions plants seemed
as inevitable as the action of the
sea. From every state in the
Union men and women gravitated
here to embark on the great advent
ure Of making smokeless powder
in those epic days when the future
of humanity was being tested on
the battlefelds of Europe. And
Immediately after the last shot of
the war had been fired the drift
of human labor was irresistibly in
the reverse direction.
For four months the outpouring
of plain men and women who met
the Teutonic challenge during the
war by producing in the plants of
E. l. du Pont de Nemours & Co.
40 per cent of the powder used by
the Allied nations has gone on.
Now, as the unscrambling is about
completed the personnel in the mu-
milton plants has been reduced to
the minimum necessary to take care
of the motionless machinery, which
became scrap when the armistice
was signed.
Types of laborers in the muni-
ton plants were as diverse as Amer
lean labor itself. A cross section
of all American labor would have
corresponded with the classification
in the du Pont war plants. Con-
trasts in personality rubbed elbows
in the factories of destructive pow-
der, and all of them in the period
that is just closing were confronted
with the task of somersaulting back
into peace activities. Professors
and hoboes, women workers holding
their first jobs and highly. skilled
mechanics, white collar men and
rough and ready fellows of the
lumber camp type were attracted
to the war plants while the fighting
lasted, and poured out for the most
part in the subsequent weeks of
unwinding.

Shutting Labor
During adjustment

rs the government began dras-
tcally to cancel its orders for arms
and ammunition a great shuffling
of labor began. In the relentless
human scramble many thousands
were dropped from the payrolls, yet
they were not all turned out into the
street. The toy factories, the cor
set plants, the automobile factories
and the various others which had
been discouraged during the war i'm
mediately took advantage of the op-
portunity to get workers and to re-
sumo normal activity.
Tens of thousands were dropped
with little warning by the war
plants, but the reabsorption into
peace industry took care of all but
1880. Of these many were "float-
ers," and they drifted away from
Bridgeport as soon as the lure of
fantastic wages and continuous over
time became a fact of the past.
Moreover, many of the workers who
we're grinding out the implements of
war we're women and children, who
went into the war plants to help out
in the emergency. When the crisis
passed they were ready to return
to their households and to the
schools. After the various factors
in the readjustment operated, sur
plus Of $500 workers remained un-
cared for, and it is estimated that
that number Of persons who desire
jobs are without work to-day. In
the Bridgeport ordnance district,
which includes all of Connecticut
and western Massachusetts, the
army of unemployed has reached
10000.
Perhaps from 10000 to $4,000 are
engaged in the factories of Bridge
port at present. AT its peak the
Remington Arms plant employed
only $4,000. Although the latter's
personnel capacity is small COM
pared with the aggregate capacity of
the rest of the factories, it would
be more than ample to save the stu
alton.
