Washington.-It is just three years
since the four leaders of the railway
brotherhoods, having refused arbitra-
ton Of their demands, sat in the gal
lery Of the United States Senate and
held their watches on the Senators
while the memorable vote was being
taken on the Adamson Law that gave
them $60,OO0,O00 additional wages a
year. When the vote was counted and
announced the four labor chiefs rushed
out to the telegraph office and with
drew the order for a nationwide
strike.
That such a scene may be again en-
acted on a much greater scale is indi-
Gated by the startling developments
at the nations capital in the past few
days. Now the $4,000 men in the
brotherhoods have been Joined by
more than million other railroad
workers-shopmen, trackmen, tele-
graphers, clerks, station agents-and
the demands are many times what
they were three years ago.
A Thousand Million Dollars.
On top of thousand million dollars
of added wages granted by the Gov
'ernment in the past year and a half,
the allied workers are asking for an
other increase Of a thousand million
dollars.
But more than this, this great body
of railroad employees has served an
ultimatum on the Government that all
the railroads of the country must be
taken away from their owners and
turned over to the employees to be OPP
Grated by them on a communistic
profit-sharing plan.
The plan is as daring as any con-
ceived by the Russian Bolshevists, and
behind 1t is the threat of a nationwide
strike, with the leaders of the men sit
ting in the Senate gallery, watches IN
hand; counting the vote.
To Tie Up All TranspartatIon.
"we will tie up the railroads so that
they will never run again If we do not
get what we want" announced one OF
the labor spokesmen, standing within
a stones throw of the Capitol, and
this amazing announcement, like an
ultimatum from leader of the Rus
sian Soviet, was instantly flashed over
the telegraph wires to every part of
the country.
Since the first Brotherhood bomb
shell exploded in Washington at the
end of July, the fact has leaked out
that the brotherhoods are gathering

TRYING TO KILL
LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Senators Are Resortlns to the Old
Parliamentary Device of Killing
by Amendment

The immediate aim Of the Senator
ial plotters against the League Cove
nant is plain to the view. They are
trying to kill the League of Nations.
The law assumes that men intend
the necessary consequences of their
own acts. If the action these Sena-
tors urge upon the Senate is taken,
1t win necessarily destroy the League.
They do not even seek to conceal
their purpose. They are resorting
Ito the old parliamentary device of
killing by amendment. Mr.. Knox's
hostile resolution, which has gone to
its death. has been abandoned for a
fqualifying resolution" 1t is intended
that the Senate shall declare In this
resolution that its ratification of the
Treaty of Peace, so far as it applies
to the League of Nations, shall be
without effect so far as the United
States is concerned until the other
nations signing the Treaty shall agree
to certain reservations, which are to
Ibe substantially those recommended
by Senator Root. The Washington
correspondent of The Times asked
Senator Knox what would happen II
the allied nations decline to accept
these reservations. "The United
States in that event would be outside
the League Of Nations" Mr.. Knox
replied, with a smile. Without the
United States the League would be
o lame and impotent organization; in
all probability it would fall to pieces.
Therefore, we may start from the
postulate that Senator Knox, Senator
Lodge, Senator Borah, Senator john
son and their associates fully intend
the death of the League of Nations
and are taking measures to that end.
But what is Ntheir Interior aim?
Merely to prevent the erection Of
safeguards against the greatest cause
of human suffering cannot be the
whole end and aim of their plotting.
We know that they have political
purpose-to express their hatred of
PRESIDENT WILSON, to discredit
him and thereby advance the fortunes
OF the Republican party. Their tao
tics and their utterances disclose that
motive, it is charged against them by
responsible leaders of their own
party. But by what strange perverted
process of argument have they per-
suaded themselves that the success OF
their desperate plot against the
League Covenant would improve the
chances of the Republicans in the
Presidential election next year?
The country is against them. The
great sober minded, reasonable, and
patriotic mass of their own party is

a propaganda fund of $10,000,000 for
an. intensive drive on Congress. Three
million dollars, it is announced, has
already been collected from the men,
bers of the unions. This will be used in
campaign work in the Congressional
districts, with the purpose of enlist
ing the votes of the members of
Congress, or of defeating them for
reelection IL they do not vote as the
brotherhoods dictate. Money will also
be lavishly spent, 1t is stated, in send
ing speakers throughout the country
to stir up the enthusiasm of organized
labor for the brotherhood plan Of
communistic railroad operation.
"NationaIIzing" All Industry
/. "If we don't get what we want out
of this Congress we will put this
Congress out and put another one in
that will give us what we want" is
the matter-of-fact announcement of
the central propaganda Office of the
brotherhoods in Washington.
Back of the immediate purpose to
gain control of the railroads Is an
even deeper scheme to gain control of
all great industries, taking them from
their owners and putting them under
the direct management Of the organiz-
ed workers, as has been done In Rus
sia, and as they are attempting to do
In Germany and Austria.
The reports of the United States
Railroad administration show that the
Government, since it took over the
roads in December, 1917, has increased
railroad wages by considerably more
than a thousand million dollars, and
about $500,000000 a year is being TAX
en- out Of the National Treasury to
meet, the deficit caused by the great
increase in labor cost.
Big Wage Increases.
The principal advances in wages
have been: To shopmen, 100000, 900 |;
to unskilled labor, $225,OO0,OOO; to the
train brotherhoods, $2eeO00,O0O; to
clerks, $125,000,000; to telegraph and
station agents, $10O,O000O0; to mis-
cellaneous classes, $1100OO,O00.
All Of these groups are now demand
ing additional Increases of from 80 20
80 per cent. When the Government
took control Of the roads the average
earnings of all railroad workers, in
cluding several hundred thousand un-
skilled workers, was $1,000 year. The
average is now more than 81, 500 and
the new demands would raise 1t to
$4,000.

against them. IT is practically certain
that they cannot command the sup
port of the majority of the Republican
Senators in their desperate adventure.
That the Republican party at large
condemns their procedure is made
evident by authoritative utterances in
many States of the Union. An ex-
President and an ex-Attorney-General
of their own party have condemned
them. More than q score of repre-
united the other day in a remon-
STRANGE against the course they are
pursuing. In the West, newspapers Of
high standing and of unquestioned
loyalty to the party are outspoken in
denunciation of the thing they are
trying to do. The st. Louis Globe
Democrat, a great and influential
newspaper OF answering fidelity to
Republican principles, declares that
"a large proportion of the Republican
press favors the League, and there
are but few important Republican
newspapers that are uncompromisingly
against it." In support Of this asser-
ton it reproduces upon its editorial
page in its issue of June 22, five COL
umns of editorial expressions from
Republican newspapers Of promi-.
nence, all deploring the unwise and
dangerous course of the Senatorial
opponents of the League. Among
these newspapers are The Los
Angeles Times, The Portland Oregon
ian, one of the great papers of the
Pacific coast; The Des Moines Reg
lister, a representative Republican
paper; The Salt Lake Tribune. an
other sound Republican newspaper,
The Topeka Capital and the Globe
Democrat.
The Globe-Democrat calls attention
to the adoption of resolutions en-
dorsing the League Covenant by the
representative vote of 29,750 to 420
by the American Federation of Labor;
to the resolution of the Federation of
Women's Clubs, representing 100000
women, declaring its approval of the
revised Covenant of the League; it
points out that in canvass of agri-
cultural papers published in forty
three States, only one Of sixty eight
opposed ratification of the Treaty
with the League and sixty-four un-
qualihedly favored II. The attitude
OF the Church in favor of the Cove
nant has been made known from hun
dreds of pulpits. Says the Globe
Democrat: Here we have labor,
agriculture, the Church, the women,
and probably business supporting the
League. From what source would the
Republican Party draw q conQuering
power in opposition to it? 1t is q
pertinent question for leaders of the
party"
