Check-Of Injunction.


in coal mining contracts, issued by Judge
Anderson of indianapolis, appears to have been
wholly voluntary. 1t sort of flank movement
aEanst the miners campaign to unionize the West
Virginia nonunon district. Under the check-off
agreement, the mine operators withhold from the
pay OF the miners, the amount OF their union dues
and pay this in bulk to the union treasury.
Judge Anderson holds that this money is used
for an illegal purpose, in that it provides the funds
needed in the effort to unionize the West Virginia
field; that this effort aims at a monopoly of the
coal supplies, through conspiracy of miners and
operators, and is violation of the Sherman anti
trust act. If this is statement of his posi-
tion as given in the press reports, it may to
the onlooker who merely coal, that the judge
went a long ways around to reach predetermined
conclusion.
The check off agreement is pait of the con-
tract fixing wage scales. The courts injunction
orders violation of this agreement, and the OPP
orators are told to disregard the order at their
peril They are virtually ordered TO break their
contract with the unions. The judge. of course,
had sufficient evidence of the conspiracy feature,
though subsequent events indicate anything rather
than conspiracy between operators and the
miners. Also the Clayton act exempts labor unions
from the provisions of the Sherman act
But be all OF this it may, The Herald re-
CARDS this injunction order as decidedly inOppOr-
tune 1t as an invitation for a coal mine
strike at the very beginning of winter. 1t follows
the recall of the railroad strike order which pract-
cally assured a revision of the coal miners scale
in the spring without serious trouble. 1t injects
into returning peace another hrebrand 1t annuls
agreement between two parties without request
from either of them, and quite evidently against
the wish of the individual miners from whose pay
the un;ol dues had been deducted.
Judge Anderson moreover, does not seemingly
object this system of collection, but only to the
use made OF the money by the unions Yet the
men from whom this money comes do not object 20
this use made Of it. The system it elf is not
ror confined collection of union dues. 1t is used
by corporations in many ways, such the COLLEGE
ton of hospital care assessments, company store
bills, club Dues insurance and the like. 1t is
equally legitimate method, in itself, of collecting
union dues.
1t is not probable the injunction will result in a
general strike. There has been sufficient evidence
that the do not wish to be protected frpm the
check-off method of paying dues But their leaders
apparently do favor strike and after the first
outburst of hostility to the order, the men will
probably adopt the wiser way of appeal to the
higher courts. This is not time for a coal strike
system of collecting dues, or court order which
is not final, would not be justified. Indeed the time
seems to have when the public mind is as
determined against strikes against The
complete heartlessness of both is beyond any ex-
cuse save self-preservaton of persons, not
ganization.

Wouldn't it be a grand and glo-

THE Russian Soviet has offered another bogus

The Soviet has made bid after bid to gain

money; took away the free of public service;
is supposed have discharged 100000 superHuous
public employees; has invited foreign capital to re-

Immediately after Gen. Pershing

went over to organize and COM

was strongly commended by allied
military commanders for the ex-

Gen. March returned to the

become acting chief of staff while

M. Bliss, was In France as the
American member of the supreme
inter-allied war council. Gen.
March later succeeded Gen. Bliss as
chief of staff and remained in that
post until July 1, when he was sue

Blames Traffic Bureau.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
To my mind have yet to see an
editorial that imposed a rather I'M
just criticism on our traffic bu-
reau, but of course Robert G. Klotz
has a right to his own mind. On
the other hand. the facts in the
case and not some motorists opin-
ion. will prove to anyone interested
that the traffic bureau Is entirely
to blame for the deplorable traffic
conditions of Washington, because
IL is up to that bureau to see that
the traffic laws and regulations are
enforced,
In the first place. the traffic DO
licemen themselves are not familiar
with existing traffic regulations, or
at least, IL they are, they fail to
make known the fact. One instance
of that is constantly being demon
strated at street crossings where
great care is exercised In painting
nice. straight white lines from cor
ner to corner as safety zones for
pedestrians in crossing the streets.
Traffic, with the block closed
against It. is supposed to stop back
of the white line, thereby leaving
the cross-walk clear for pedestrians
