AMERICANISH AND HONOR ARE
TESTED BY DEEDS, NOT WORDS,

The seamen' IS strike and the printing
trades strike show how Americanism
and honor can be debased by en-
ployers.
Vessel owners are attempting to cut
wages, and in their greed for profits
have east aside every pretenss and re-.
gard for an American merchant ma-
rine.
They have even refused to agrea
that they will give>preferepce to Amer.
leans in employment and Insist Oh
multiplying the seamen IS law that they
may compete with the cheapest labor
on the seven seas.
The seamen s law is based on tbs
proven fact that American standards
on American vessels force other mari
time nations to meet this standard to
hold their employees when they arrive
at American ports.
This system, the seamen prove by
statistics, is attracting the American
boy to the sea.
The seamen also show that sea power
is not in vessels, but in men-that
ships can be easily built, bat an Amer.
lean spirit cannot be ineulcated in nom
American seamen working under de-.
basing conditions.
The seamen and marine engineers
offered to submit the issue to Presidenu
Harding, and agreed to abide by bis
deeision, but this was refused.
The public press and statesmen have
thundered for an American merchant
marine, but these voices are silent on
the vessel owners policy while the
stage is set to smash tho unions Of sea
farers, kill the seamen's law and get
hold OF the hundreds Of merchant yes
sells owned by the government, which
will then be disposed Of at handsome
profits by business buccaneers.
This is the "Americanism that yes
sci owners, who own stock in foreign
steamship companies, their political
agents and editorial scribblers believe
in.
The Americanisn, of vessel own
ers is paralleled by the "honor'' OF
printing trades employers who agreed
with their rganized workers to install!

This agreement was made two years
ago and checked a shorter work week
movement at that time, as the printing
trades believed they could secure
through negotiation what they would
have to enforce by costly strike.
The employers are now attempting
to capitalize a vicious apti-union pro-
paganda of the past two years.
They have broken their pledge and
a nationwide strike is on,
