Strikes and Lockouts

American labor leaders beginning to talk about
Ia conspiracy of unemployment They say that there
plan to force wage reductions hy withholding employ
ment and by shutting down factories where there
lis demand for the product at price that will permit
THE payment Of the present WAGE scale.
On the other hand a great many people believe that
labor leaders have determined that there shall
mo reduction from the wartime wage scales without
gard any decline of general prices or living costs
The probability is that there is truth in both
these and that they both reveal conditions
that dangerous to public peace and contrary the
publ, interests.
Generally speaking no workman willingly accepts
pays than he thinks he has pay in order to get
fair the matter of labor disputes finds
lit difficult to form opinion and equally disapproves
the lockout and the strike.
In some states and Colorado is one of them an ef
fort has made to get an impartial decision in such
industrial controversies. The state does not attempt to
compel to work against their will It does not at
tempt to make employers pay that they think they
afford to pay. It does provide for nvesra
tion of industrial disputes and does make author
itative statement of what is fair and right under the
circumstances
When such an investigation iz fairly made md the
decision is honestly given, that decision is entitled 10

Highway Robbers

The increasing number of crimes of violence upon
the highways of this state Is matter of great public IN
terest.
Colorado is spending millions of dollars upon the
roads, and this expenditure augmented by that of the
national government the cities and the counties.
The highwayman Is a obstruction to highway
travel than broken bridge or a washed-out grade,
If Colorado is TO get the full benefit from the road
building program the roads be safe not only from
accidents of weather and ordinary bnt also from
the criminal whose selfish disregard of the rights of
others is directly contrary to the public interest.
Once let it be generally believed that Colorado roads
are not safe from robbers, and from those reckless
drivers that endsnger other lives along with their
and the people of this state may well give up their
hopes of becoming the playground of the nation
Two things are necessary One of these is the strict
enforcement of the legal penalties against every hGhwa,
robber and against every vioator of the hshwsy
law The other is persistent and unrelaved prosecution
of the makers and sellers of bootleg whisky who
ponsibc for of the crimes of carelessness we'll
as most of the crimes of violence, in this state at the
present time
It ia of unusual Importance at this time that every
citizen shall set example of obedience t law,
and that he shall also give active and untaltering sup
port to the federal state and local officials that
charged with the duty of law enforcement.
