yet placed before the nation during it's recon
struction period. Officials refused to predict it's
outcome Tomorrow it will be formally laid be-

STRIKE STILL SPREADS

Chicago, Aug. 5.-The strike of the
federated crafts of railroad shopmen
which started on Friday continued to
spread, according to a report today Of
the officials directing the walk out.
Representative Of the men who have
been endeavoring to bring about an
adjustment of the demands for an
approximate increase in wages Of rs
percent, are making efforts to end the
strike, claiming that it is not legally
authorized by the several unions Of
the allied crafts involved.
While points in the south and south
west reported walkouts by shopmen,
the strike appears to be confined for
the most part to the middle west.
Traffic Not Imperilled
r. H. Ashton, regional director of
railroads, said that traffic thus far
had not been imperilled by the strike
and that he expected speedy return
of the men now out.
II understand the men have been
ordered back by the officials in Wash
ington," he said, "and the strike from
the first lacked their grand lodge

wages has been granted. Further
more, we will refuse to negotiate for q
settlement thru the grand lodge. If
the government wants to talk business
with us, it will have to come to US
direct"
Officials declared that the effect of
the shipments strike is being felt by
every railway in the west and south.
Reports received at union headquar-
ters were to the effect that many loco
motive engineers had refused to take
out trains because of the bad condition
of the rolling stock.
Secretary Saunders said the strike
is spreading daily.

EX.PitboY a Labor Leader.

Born in a workhouse some sixty
years ago, Herbert Smith, president Of
the Yorkshire Miners association has
become power in England, says the
London Mail.
This Castleford pitboy, by sheer grit
and stubbornness, forced away ahead
of his fellows, and soon asserted him
self In local politics. On the board
Of guardians and on the county cOun-
Gil he showed great administrative
ability, and two years ago he was ap-
pointed vice president of the Miners
federation. Today his word is law in
Yorkshire pits. Ruling in the sumptu-
Gus offices of the Miners council, at
Barnsley, he uses the methods and
powers Of a dictator, as many aspir-
ing delegates have found to their
cost when they crossed the will of
"Our Herbert" as pitmen call him.
A big man with a big voice, Mr..
Smith is a typical working Yorkshire
man and proud Of 1t. With his cloth
cap, seasoned briar pipe, and roomy
clothes, he looks an industrious arti-
san, satisfied with his work. Blunt in
manner, especially to strangers, Mr..
Smith speaks in strong West York
shire dialect which emphasizes his
brusQueness.

Join Labor Clearing House.

A government clearing house for In
dustrial disputes will be one Of the
probable results Of the investigation of
the steel strike by the senate educa-
ton and labor committee, Senator
Walsh, of Massachusetts, a member
of the committee, stated.
II believe that the committee will
make suggestions for legislation which
will at least attempt to prevent a
repetition of any such strike in the
future" Senator Walsh said.
One of the most effective means of
preventing future strikes, according
to Senator Walsh, is by establishing
some government organization to hear
the grievances of employees, investi
gate them and give publicity to them
Senator Walsh made 1t plain that he
did not believe that any form Of com
pulsory arbitration or Cancellation
would be effective.

canada's Labor Situation improves.

The labor situation in Canada has
greatly improved since early summer.
Unemployment is becoming problem
of less significance. At the beginning
Of July, according to the department
of labor report, the percentage of un-
employed among members of trade
unions was 2.75 as against 3.83 at the
beginning Of June. During July, in
spite Of the labor unrest that existed,
there was an increase in the total
volume of employment. In the mari
time provinces there was slight re-
duction In employment, but in Ontario
and Quebec there was an increase
and in the western provinces a pro
nounced increase.

oompers Opposes Anti. Strike Law.

SPPOSSo FAnb'-OAii law
Opposing an anti-strike provision in
the railroad reorganization bill, Sam
uel GOmpers told the state interstate
commerce committee that workers
would not obey 1t even though it were
held constitutional by the supreme
court.
Answering ]. S. Webster (R), rep
resentative from Washington, Mr..
Gompers said In such situation he
would remain silent and make test
before the people" instead of advising
and counseling obedience to the law.
BY appeal to the people, he explained.
he would seek to have the court Opin-
lon reversed by the next congress. He
insisted, however, that he could not
conceive Of the court holding such a
law valid, because, he said, it would
impose involuntary servitude."

Director General Hines Points
Out How Some 0rganiza-
tionS Harm All.
BASED ON ALTOONA TROUBLE
Makes the Statement That "Refusal
to Obey Own Rulers Makes Orderly
Handling of Business lmpossible"-
Cites Policy of Railroad Admins
tratlon.

Strikes Of railroad employees such
as that In the Altoona Pa) yards
Of the Pennsylvania railroad were
declared by Director General Walker
ID. Hines as creating the basis for
the argument that it is nonsense to
deal with labor organizations, because
they will not obey their own rulers,
and therefore make the orderly
handling Of business impossible"
The statement by the director gen
eral was made in a letter to B. M.
Jewell acting president of the rail-
way employees department of the
American Federation Of Labor, In re-
gard to the Altoona strike. Mr.. Hines
reiterated that the railroad admins
tratiOns policy was that no grievance
Of railroad employees could be con-
sidered while the workers involved re-
mained on strike.
Emphasizing the seriousness of
every stoppage Of work at the pres
ent time when "the railroad admins
tration Is straining every nerve to
serve the people of this country and
the people of Europe" Mr.. Hines re-
quested that his warning message he
transmitted to the strikers whose un-
authorized strike, he declared, was In
Juring the cause of organized labor
as well as the general public.
