STRIKE MENACE BEGAN
WITH FIRST WAGE CUT
Majority of Unions Voted for
a WaIkout.

CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-The decision OF the
United States Labor Board on July /
authorizing the railroads to reduct wages
of their employees an average of 12H
per cent. was the first event in the series
which led UP to the orders for gen.
eral strike by six unions.
So soon as this decision was rendered
a majority Of the rail unions voted over
whelmingly in favor of a strike rather
than accept wage cut although on
some lines, notably the Pennsylvania,
there were divisions where groups Of
workers voted not to strike.
The taking of the ballot itself de-
veloped some signs of friction among the
urions. w. c. Lee. president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, sent
out a separate ballot to his men. when
the other unions included In their ballots
such questions as rules and working
conditions. Mr.. Lee held that 1t was IL
legal to vote on anything but the all
ready authorized wage cut.
Leaders Of the big four brotherhoods--
trainmen. conductors. engineers and fire
men-met In Chicago to decide what ac-
ton should be taken. On October Is 1t
was announced formally that a walkout
beginning October 80 and extending
progressively in four distinct movements
until virtually every road In the coun-
try would be covered had been author
lied. The Switchmen's Union of North
America Immediately announced that II
would join the big four, while B. NJ.
Jewell. president OF the Railway EN-
ployees' Department, American Fedora
tion Of Labor. which Is comprised of the
shop crafts unions--publicly announced
that he would fight tooth and toenaiI to
avert walkout by the eleven standard
unions"
A few days after the "Big Five" strike
call the United States Labor Board
stepped into the situation. The three
members of its public group who had
been summoned to Washington to con-
fer with President Harding announced
their plan to avert the strike--no fur
ther reduction of wages and immediate
reduction OF rates by the roads and ac-
ceptance OF the July wage decrease by
the unions. Both roads and unions Inn
mediately declared the plan impossible.
The board then called the union chiefs
into conference at Chicago, and pend
ing this conference the eleven stand
ard'' unions deferred action. Nothing

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct 27.--Union
leaders among trainmen Of the Interna-

began q strike last Saturday. were in
doubt here tonight whether the decision
OF their chieftains at Chicago cancelllng
the general strike scheduled for October
30 would affect the situation here.
Local leaders announced that no action
would be taken until word was received
from their general chairman, r. ID.
Frame, at Chicago.
The New York herald., 1921-10-28

that they would not authorize a wS,k-
out. This was the first break aid
others followed rapidly until every ons
of the eleven standard unions except
the order OF railway teleeraphers had
refused to authorize strike.
The labor board hearing was held
yesterday. 1t adjourned when the
unions. at the instigation of the board.

requested permission to confer with
their chairmen. These conferences led

HOW TO GET BACK
TO HARD MONEY

Some who have lived through the
vfcissitudes OF Mexico during the last
few years. and studied her economic
and fiscal conditions. feel that they
have some precedent for predicting
what may happen to the currency Of
Austria and Germany and the coun-
tries of Eastern Europe. In Mexico
there was food after food of paper
money, growing. as was inevitable,
cheaper and cheaper, more and more
worthless, as 1t became more and
more hopelessly remote from any SOL
Id underlying security. Finally a re-
vulsion seized the people, running
more or less simultaneously through
out the nation. They would not both
er further with the truck. Therewere
severe legal penalties against refus-
ing to receive the paper currency as
legal tender; but the revulsion and
the refusal to accept 1t were so wide
spread that the law was imperative
from the cas- of the broad nature
of the movement and the attitude of
the population.
The paper dollars were re~pudiated,
not by the government. but by the
people. They would take only hard
money-silver or gold. So, with the
swiftness Of a revolutionary move
ment and without any governmental
action, the nation, almost overnight,
speaking fguratively. changed from
paper to gold and silver; and to-day
in Mexico only gold and silver are
used as money. Thus a new econo-
mic and monetary law, a sequel to
the oft-quoted law of Gresham, was
evidenced. Gresham's law, as we re-
member, was that in times of depre-
ciated and varying currency, the
cheap money drives out the good. In
France, for example, the paper money
has driven out the silver coins, which
have disappeared-sold into Switzer-
land or England or boarded. But the
new law as displayed in Mexico land
not alone there) is that at a certain
stage of cheapness, when the cheap
money becomes practically worthless.
the good money drives it out. So all
the mining and other enterprises in
Mexico now are compelled to pay
their wages only in solid COIN
Such an event is accordingly pre-
dicted by. these observers for certain
countries in Europe. In Russia and
in Austria the revulsion would ap-
pear to be overdue; and such a hap
pening in Germany would provide an
avenue back to sound money not con-
templated by economists. The re-
valuation Of the mark or the repudia-
ton of paper currency by the govern
ment are the probabilities contem-
plated by many financiers, and either
avenue is a reputation. But, IL the
people should drop their paper rolls.
as worthless, into the gutter, and
trade only with something else, the
government would be saved the
trouble of solving the puzzle and the
paper marks would have the same
status as Confederate currency, now
valued solely as a historic curiosity
of our Civil War period, has with us.
