The advantages of collective bar
gaining are going a glimmering in
this insurgent uprising in the ranks
of organized labor against their con-
stituted leaders. OF what possible
value is the agreement with a labor
union under conditions like those
now existing in the railroad broth
erhoods? Must we have the COM
munism of Russia and the conse-
quent conscription of these men to
compel them to do their duty ?
When men do not recognize the au-
therity constituted by themselves
they are headed straight for the
perdition of tyranny. They cease to
function as intelligent, liberty-lov-
ing. law abiding human beings. In
some way they must be brought to
recognition and acceptance of their
responsibility or circumstances il
not tyrants will do it for them.

France But Did Her Duty

(The North Americana
France, discerning the peril of let
ting this vital safeguard be nullified,
forbade the Ruhr invasion, EXCEPT
upon the terms that the Allies should
occupy Frankfort and other Rhine
cities and hold them as hostages to
guarantee the withdrawal of the
German forces as soon as order had
been restored. The Germans pro-
tested, evaded and finally rejected
the terms. Nevertheless, encouraged
by the passive attitude of Britain
and Italy. and especially by Presi-
dent Wilson's approval, they under
took to violate the stringent prohi-
bition, and sent several thousand
troops into the neutraliZed zone

nified the acceptance OF the new pol
icy forced upon her by the deser-
ton of her assoCiates-gave prompt
warning of reprisals. Last Friday
the German government pleaded that
the military movement was due to
"a mistake" which would be correct

boldly avowed that the army had

Grim Humor

Viewing the Turkish muddle. a
Berlin paper remarks sardonically,
The United States is for the re-
moval of the Turks from Europe, but
won't be responsible for the conse-
quences. America makes only pro-
posalS: the burden and quarrels of
execution she leaves to the Allies"
This refers, of course to the propo-
sails made by President Wilson's note
in which he suggested several i'm
possible things to be done in the
former Turkish territory without the
slightest assurance that his country
would back him in their execution,
if they were attempted.

Watched the Clock instead Of Orders

The report of the decision Of the
Public Utilities Commission printed
in another column will be found
worthy of careful reading. The
hearing on this terrible accident at
Onawa last December and which re-
suited in the killing Of twenty four
people and the injuring Of thirty
nine more. was one of the largest
ever held by the commission and no
effort was spared to get out the evil
dence. The result of all this is a
decision in which the parties at fault
will find little to relieve their blame.
The following sentence is quite
impressive: apparently every eff
fort Of the crew Of the first section
of Number Is and a large part OF
their energy was directed to the at
tempt to make their destination at
Greenville junction within the limit
of the 16-hour law" :.
Because as appears. they watched
the clock for knocking off" time in
stead of their job which Involved the
guarding of many lives, includ-
ing their own, twenty-four people
were killed. In other words it may
be said their anxiety was rather with
getting through their worl: than with
the work itself.
That attitude towards ones voca-
ton is by no means confined to those
termed workingmen, employees. In
deed the decision, recommending as
it does the establishing of a block
system on this road, is another in
dication of it, as other consideration
than the safety and completeness of
the railway is shown to have infiu-
enced the management. 1t would
seem that the number of those who
lind enjoyment in their work, who
derive satisfaction from their skill
reputation as masters of their voca-
ton, rather than in the amount OF
money which they may be able to
squeeze out of it in the shortest time
possible, is increasing. If this be so,
man is in need of new inspiration,
or an old one restored to activity.
