Long Live The Outlaw Switchmen!
By James ,y
By James Patrick

After many months of hard battling against the
combined forces of the railroad corporations the
Government and the craft union officaldom, the
"outlaw" switchmen in several cities have
voted to call off their strike and go
back to work. forfeiting their senior
ity rights and failing to gain the formal recogni-
tion of their demands. At first view the result
appears to be victory for the railroads, their
government and their "labor lieutenants" and a
defeat for the brave workers who defied them;
but they who look beneath the surface and measure
this great and heroic endeavor by the yardstick of
revolutionary progress, will read different story
If we accept the view of the Gompers school of
unionsm that trade unions exist only for the puI
pose of holding the ground that has already been
gained and that collective bargaining" is the
summit of our hopes, we must measure the success
or failure Of strike by the definite and concrete
results directly achieved. On the other hand, if we
look upon the organized labor movement as
machinery for revolution, strikes become to us as
preliminary skirmshes wherein we try out our
strength, lay bare to ourselves our own weakness
and learn by the penalty suffered to throw them
off. This latter is the viewpoint of labers van
guard all over the world and from this angle, we
can now calmly examine this strike Of the switch
men; count up our gains and losses; take to heart
the lessons driven home by it and prepare for an
other struggle on a larger scale. IS ls,{
The Curse OF Craft Unonism
The strike of the outlaw switchmen brought out
in bold relief the curse of craft unionism. These
strikers had not only to contend with the crooked
and conservative officers of their own Unions
who h a m e lie $ s y sold them out to the
bosses, but they were h m S trun G
by the Infamous practice which authorized other
bodies of union men, whose interests and whose
sympathes were one with theirs, to remain at
work and thus become in effect, strike breakers.
Every worker on the railroads who stuck to the
job during the period of this strike was acting as
an ally Of the bosses and an enemy of his own
