4 Futile and Foolish Strike

| e OR the better part OF two weeks great
! industrial centerS OF the country were
| in state Of partial paralysis because the
| transportation system had failed 10 func-
| ton few thousands Of railroad men
had quit their work They had struck
and III striking they forced dleness and
hardship upon many hundreds of thousands
! Oh their FELLOW workingmen. They had not
succeeded in starving any community into
surrender. however or forcing the govern
ment to stand and deliver. The worst they
did was to visit unmerited punishment
upon men of their own kind and give con-
scicnceless profiteers here and there an OPP
portunity 10 gouge a little deeper.
The railroad men who lef, their posts
were actuated by no fixed grievance They
had no concrete complaints to make In
most cases they gave their employers no
warming whatever. merely deciding over
night that they would strike as Il protest
against some underlined evil. For many
days they wandered about aimlessiy. then
upon one pretext or another most OF them
went back 10 work.
No more unnecessary and misguided
strike ever was participated in by any large
body of American workingmea. If the
strikers had evolved any genuine grievance;
il they had put forward any intelligible de-
mands; if they had not simply fired their
heavy artillery at random. they might have
gained measure Of sympathy from the
public and degree OF support from their
organizations. But they did nothing Of the
sort They defed their own leaders. pre-
ferring the advice and guidance OF a group
OF radical inceudaries, and as Il result they
had nothing to stand upon when the time
came TO force issues.
The strike may prove to be useful. how
ever. in indicating to American labor as n
whole that ii cannot hope TO win n fight
Without having something sound TO go on.
There is a Willingness on the part of the
great body OF the American people to see
labor have place of comfort and we'll

outlaws II cannot hope 10 achieve a def
nitc end. Certainly ii cannot do If the
recognized organizations OF labor. such as
the railway brotherhoods. condemn a given
strike and refuse to uphold it.
incidentally. the country as a whole was
not frightened into panic over the pos
sibility OF a transportation paralysis. 1t
did not Immediately surrender some
strikers expected. On the contrary. it stood
pat giving fair notice that it would neither
be scared nor hrowbeaten into yielding to
