CRUSH STRIKES
AT INCEPTION
Spain Uses Iron Hand and CIaps
Labor Leaders Into
jail.
BIG BUSINESS OPTIMISTIC
Republic Is Long Way Off, Is opin.
ion Of British Government Official
Who Has Been Making Study
Of the Situation.

London.-Big business men of Spain
are backing their faith in the future
stability Of Spain by spending their
money on big projects in their coun-
try.
England. it is stated, is apt to have
naturalization Of mines and railroads
long before Spain overthrows the mon
archy and sets up a republic.
This is the gist Of what a British
government official and business mar
said after a months trip through
Spain.
Reports of strikes and rumors of
revolution in Spain have been
Gus.
Throw Leaders In Jail.
But" said this official, "far from
closing Its eyes to strikes, the gov
eminent seems to have a very sum-
mary way with them. In fact, it has
a way which would not be attempted
In Anglo-Saxon countries.
"The military promptly clap the
leaders Of the strike into Jail, and it
naturally dies down after that.
1.-THE only trouble I saw in Madrid
was a lockout by the employers
against the employees in the build
ing trades:
1T lasted in Spain for weeks and
weeks before it was finally settled.
II asked the Spaniards what would
happen If there were q big national
strike Of railway men. T..
1.-THE response was that most of
the railroaders were Of military age:
that they would be promptly called
back to the %colors; that they would
be enrolled in regiments Of railway
engineers and put back to work on the
railways-not as employees Of the
roads, but as soldiers Of the nation.
Whether such a drastic program would
be carried out I do not know, but it
was discussed quite freely.
Business men told me there was
not as much unrest in Spain as there
was in England, France and America.
Spain is suffering from the same
malady all civilized countries are suf-
fering from-high cost of living and
q consequent insistent demand made
by the working class for much higher
wages. The same vicious circle is
being. gone through with in Spain"

The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1920-08-28
CURRENT COMMENT
The Traction Problem.

More than year ago President Will
son named a federal electric railways
commission made up of eight men Of
such strong personality and so di-
vergent interests that few believed
they would be able to reach even fair
agreement upon the traction questions
they were to study. But after having
made an extensive investigation these
men now sign unanimous report.
They have had real problem to study,
for 1919 is said to have been the
most disastrous year in the history OF
the industry, with one company in
every 10 going into the hands OF re-
ceivers. The industry represents six
billions Of investments, and the cleo
tric lines carry many times as many
passengers as the steam roads.
The commission recommends the
service -at-cost plan Of operation, the
actual cost of rides TO govern the rate
of fares and fixed return upon an
agreed valuation of his holdings TO be
guaranteed the investor
The commission in clean-cut style
tells the public, the management and
the employees what their respective du-
ties should be- The 'managements
Job is TO serve the public at highest eff
ficiency at lowest cost; theirs should
not be speculative industry. The pub
lie must maintain an attitude of friend
illness and cooperation toward railways
and their operators. The employees
must have living wage and humane
hours of labor, all disputes must be
settled voluntarily or by arbitration
awards must be final and binding or
both parties, and the right of collective
bargaining must be conceded. 1T is in
tolerable," says the report, that the
transportation service of a city should
be subject to occasional paralysis
whether by strikes or lockouts."
The commissioners agree that The
right of the public to own and oper'
ate all public utilities must be recog
, nized, but that this method Is undo
sirable save as a last resort
The whole document is worthy Of
study. The traction lines, however
are almost entirely subject to the argu
lation of states and cities, for they are
interstate in their service. Therefore
the recommendation of this report
have suggestive value only, and escf

virtually at the mercy OF the fetaii
dealers of that product because the
dealers will take only the better yari'
cites. thus making it necessary Tor
the growers to leave most OF the crop
to rot on the ground because OF the al
legged lack of a market, while all the
time a great many people would be
pleased to get the apples even though
not of the highest grade. This cores
pondent points out that the dealers
pay only $3.50 barrel for apples and
sell them at prices ranging from $3.50
to $40, making still more on hand
picked apples at ten cents pound
There is 80 much sense TO what this
correspondent says and it is so APP
plicable to Vermont that we reprint
the article, which is as follows;
"a trip through the western part OF
your state shows that there is large
apple crop, but we will probably be
obliged to pay from 81 to $40 a bar
rel for them. The dealers offer $3.50
for ordinary fruit, and sell hand picked
ones at 10 cents a pound. We look at
the tags on the apples and drive past
thcusands of barrels of them going TO
| waste in the country. A grocer told
me that he could not realize the cost
of the empty barrel if he sent his crop
to Boston. The dealer wants TO sell
the fancy stock, and the people would
be glad to pay reasonable sum a bar
rel for others.
"There is something radically wrong
with our market system when we can
not get apples that must rot on the
ground"
The only remedy for such conditions
in Massachusetts,, as well as in Yer
mont. is for the growers Of apples "a
cooperate and carry the apples to the
people, thus cutting out the dealers
who will not carry the lower priced
apples and who sell only the fancy up
Piles at prices prohibitive to the aver
age consumer. A little well-directef
energy and fair degree of publicity
would tend to create such demand
for the so-called lower priced apples
that people would buy of public mar
ket, or a community market, whatever
the name of the scheme Of selling di
rect to the consumer. II the apple
growers of western Massachusett,
should club together under plan e
carry their apples to a public mar
ket in some places accessible TO III
public of Boston they would have littl'
trouble disposing of their goods. TIT
something radically wrong with on
market system" which the correspond
ent complains of is the failure Of th'
growers to take advantage Of their or
portunities.
