SATURDAY. OCTOBER 20. 1921.
The Labor Board Acts.

The United States Railroad Labor
Board has summoned the railroads
and the unions to appear before it
next week for hearing on their diff
ferences, commanding the unions not
to strike pending the boards hear
ing and decision. The board has no
compelling authority over the unions
in this matter of forbidding the
strike, but the unions may comply
with it's warning as the best way TO
get out of o situation into which
they never should have leaped, a sit
uation, in truth, which spells disas-
ter for them II they go on with their
strike.
Hundreds Of thousands of men now
at work on the roads announce that
they will not go out, strike order or
no strike order. Former railroad
men no longer in the business are
enrolling for the emergency in large
numbers. General volunteers, pro
fessional men, business men, the
hite collar boys, are stepping for
ward all over the country ready to
an the trains and keep the roads
running.
Tne American public cannot be
terrorized, has not been bluffed and
viii not be duped on this crucial
national issue.

ALaw Against Strikes.
Congress Has Power to Protect Rail-
road Traiic.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD; Your
editorial article entitled Let Us Settle
II Now" Is sound and right.
The question is. DO the people own the
railroads or do the employees own them?
Nearly year ago Senator Poindexter
passed In the United states Senate his
bill which, had the House and the Presi-
dent approved II, would have made the
issue of a call for a strike by railroad
employees unlawful
Congress has the power TO prevent
Interruptions of Interstate commerce.
Chief Justice White of the Supreme
Court so held In the Adamson case.
Congress should exercise it's power.
This Is the time and the occasion for
courage on the part Of our representa-
tives in the Senate and the House of
Representatives.. They should act with
out delay. Interruption Of interstate
commerce must be made unlawful.

Rich Men i, BasebaA.

1t has long been a saying that
every man who was successful in his
own business, whether it was writing
epigrams or stuffing sausages. har
bored the notion that he would be
a great theatre or hotel manager
Now it seems necessary to add q
third occupation toward which mer
turn from their familiar vocations
This is owning a baseball club.
Mr.. SroNEHAM, after years Of tri
umph in stocks, bought the Giants
Mr.. RUPERT, long identified with
brewing. acquired the Yankees. Mr.
FRAzEE, a veteran Of the theatres
took up the Boston Red Sox. Now
an equally prominent figure, GEORGE
M. CONAN, Is reported as plunging
into the diamond game.
The secret of this passion for buy
ing baseball teams is not merely the
desire for a thrill. Almost every
tan is fond Of his own judgment ol
baseball players. He is more or less
what the professionals sarcastically
describe as grand stand manager y
He considers himself as wise as Con
ME MACK used to be and as forceful
as JOHN MCGRAw. II he owned a
baseball club, he thinks, he could find
new pitchers as good as JOHNSON OF

ScHANG, infielders like WAGNER and
COLLINS, outfelders like TT COBB

must be full of mute, inglorious
Ruths, waiting to be signed up.
