THE RAILROAD SITUATION-The Railroad
brotherhoods appear to favor government owner
ship OF the railroads. Both President G.. w. Lee
Of the Trainmens Union and Warren S. Stone
president of the brotherhood OF Locomotive Engi-
ncers have expressed themselves OF that PROPOSE
ton
Furthermore Mr.. Stone declares that the threat
cned strike be averted by the limitation of the
proposed ten per cent wage reduction and the es-
adjustment Of favorable working agreements on
seventy five railroads. AS see it, there is no
chance for the elimination of the proposed wage
reduction. In regard to favorable working agree
ments that Of course would be matter OF further
consideration.
Mr.. Stone says: The government can prevent
the strike by taking the railroads, and that
IS what will eventually happen" We don't believe
it. We opposed to government ownership OF
railroads. or other public utilities such telephone
lines and tcegraphs This tried a war
measure and was necessary at that time. But
government operation OF railroads and telegraph
and telephone lines during that period dcmonstra-
ted to nicely that the people don't want THAT
except as an emergency measure.
If the railroads would reduce freight and pass
cngcr rates at the same time they put into effect
the wage reduction, their position would be great
strengthened and the probabilities OF recall Of
the general strike considerably increased Rome

RAILROAD STRIKE SITUATION-The y

RAILROAD STRIKE SITUATION-The pend
ing strike situation OF railroad employees has now
grown acute unless some conciiatory action is tax
tn. there is question but that the entire country
will be tied up and suffering and possible starva
ton will come to many sections of the country
Irrespective OF the merits of the case on either
side there can be justification OF a strike Of this
character. The welfare of the people is at stake
and not set OF men, be they employees or officials
have the moral right to pitch this country into a
state OF excitement over serious condition where
life and property will be at stake. There is no
sane reason for strikes If the employer and en-
Ployee cannot agree and adjust their differences,
then settlement should be reached by arbitration
Arbitration is the only reasonable and fair way bv
which differences should be settled Whatever
may be the verdict of the arbtrators, both factions
should accept it in good grace and abide the deci-
sion without murmur.
The reasons for the strike are summed up as
follows: cut of ten per cent in wages which
would bring wages back to the level which prevail
cd prior to 1920 This reduction is resisted bv the
employees and strike vote has been polled which
resulted IN an overwhelming vote favoring the
strike lhe strike has been called for October 80
ne number OF workers involved is over two mil
hon The strike would tie up every railroad of
Importance in the United States from Maine to
California and from the extreme north to the south
However, it is hoped that President HARDING
may be able to devise some means by which an
amicable adjustment of the differences and a set
'ement may be reached before the day set for the
strike to occur
Strikes are un-American and there should he leo
IS'a''on enacted which would provide for settle
men' OF differences Of this character by a legally
constituted board from which there should he no
appeal Arbitration is the only just and rghtfuI
way through which to reach irregularities and tho
settlement of differences cannot he. aoroo, ,,,.s
