Might Affect 100000

The strike, which would involve
more than 100000 commercial telegra-
phels and telephone workers through
out the country, it is said, would be
called as a protest against action OF
the companies in discharging about
100 girls employed in Atlanta as
operators because they had affiliated
with the Commercial Telegraphers
Union, and would become effective at
pm. Monday. The companies affect
ed would include the Postal, Western
Union, leased wires of press associa-
lions and all telephone companies
that employ members of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers and the Commercial Telegra-
piers Union. 1t further was said that
later the strike would spread to the
Order of Railway Teiegraphers, the
membership Of which numbers 200, O0O
men. and later to other organizations
which work in conjunction with the
phone and telegraph service.
Sanction Of General Chairman A. w
Carter of the Atlanta district in
sending the ultimatum to the en-
ployes in his district was said to
have been telegraphed to Mr.. Carter
from Montreal Canada, by President
Konenkamp.
Members of the unions say the &C
ton Of the companies in discharging
the Atlanta operators is in direct vio-
lation of instructions issued by Post
master General Burleson and that the
strike is proposed as Showdown"

IHSTORY'S GREATEST REVOLT
TION.


The present condition of Russia can
be summed up in one word: disSolu-
ton. 1t is the most sudden and pro-
found dissolution in all recorded his
tory, "A breakdown not merely of gov
eminent but of the whole social fab
rio. In a single year a mighty en-
pire. the product of centuries of his
toric evolution. inhabited by 5000
000 of people and occupying one-siXth
of the entire surface of the globe, has
disappeared into thin air. leaving be-
hind nothing but a weltor of anarchy.
This is something unprecedented. Be
side it the French revolution pales
into relative inSignificance.
Yet we should err in dwelling eX-
clusively upon the Russian revolu-
tons destructive side, Such break
down is by its very essence a transit
ton. Ours Is a universe of order and
growth. and nature, ahhoring chaos
as much as she does Il vacuum, per-
mits neither long to endure What
we have been witnessing in the last
year is the death agony of the old
Romanoff empire. But death, viewed
philosophically is merely the passing
of the outworn in order to make room
for fresh forms of life. The principle
certainly applies in Russia, for amid
the ruins of the old order we can al
ready discern the vigol0us upshoot.'

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS--
WHAT IT REALLY, MEANS
BY JOSIAH T.. REED.

gested that the Soviet government in
Russia - the cursed BolSheVilii -- be
admitted to the peace conference. This
was little too much for the French
government who still mourn the ear.
But it indicates that Wilson $ scheme
found favor with the British dele
gates. And when England and the
United States stand together, they can
nut anything through the peace con-
ference. Japan votes with England
France does not need to be afraid
Not all the old Russian bonds are held
in Paris. The Soviet government
needs money. or will presently, and
recognition of the old debts will be
the first condition for making new
ones. Lloyd George knows what he
is about.
BY the Wilson plan for confer
ence with Russia. the Soviet govern
mont is put in q hole. 1t can agree
to meet the allies, and at one stroke
get rid of the invading armies
Americans, British, French Czecho-
Slovaks, and Japanese; but it can
scarcely treat with the allies and
make arrangements for borrowing
propaganda campaigns for overthrow
ing their governments Yet if the So
VETS turn down the offer of a confer
ence, they are in trouble with the
people at home. who care Il great deal
more for getting back to the ways of
peace than for spreading Soviet gov
ernmcnts throughout the world. Every
government wants first of all to pro-
long its power. 1t will spread it's
principles afterward If it can. 1t
looks to me as though tho Soviet gov
eminent would have to accept the
offer.
AT any rate, the scheme of fighting
the Bolsheviki with armies is de-
feated; which illustrates that the fl
nancial interests who control the Tory
governments which selected the Eu-
ropcan delegates to the peace confer
ence are not going to have as much
to say as they expected. The reason
is that the Tory governments won't
last a moment If they run counter to
the will Of their peoples. These peo-
pies want peace and no war with
Russia or ANYBODY else. They want
n League of Nations. and the French
want TO he sure the menace of Ger
many is removed But the peoples
arc not so keenly interested in protect
ing bOndholdersl or providing their
capitalists with new fields for invest
mont And for this reason the Amer
lean delegates can doubtless do much
in the way of moderating the de-
mands of the European governments.

Samuel Gompers, who today enters

as one of a delegation appointed to
look after the interests of the working
classes when certain issues affecting
those interests are brought before the
peace conference. Mr.. Gompers has
been president of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor since 1882. He is q
native of England, who. finding his
way to the, United States quite early
in his career, identified himself with
the cause of organized labor. and, in
the course of time, assisted in found
ing the federation. To have retained
his place at the head of the organiza-
ton so long, with factional feeling
against him very bitter at times in
dicates the firm hold he must have
gained upon the rank and file, Mr..
Gompers has not confined his labor
to the trades union movement. lie
has shared in the discussion and for
NAL deliperanees Of the National Civic
federation and has taken prominent
part in numerous movements having
to do with the public welfare.
