SATURDAY, AUGUST IL. 1922.
Does President Harding Want
Teeth in the Law?

1t has been reported that a dennlte
indication of the nature Of the leg
islation President HARDING will ask
Congress to enact is afforded by a
certain vote of his, as Senator
HARDING, about two years ago. Our
esteemed contemporary tho New
York Times, for example. remarks
editorially:
when the Transportation act was
before the Senate in 1920 he voted
for an anti-strike clause that was
defeated; presumably he is now bent
upon securing its equivalent"
The indication would be valuable
il this meant, as it seems to mean,
that Senator HARDING joined advis-
: edly in an attempt to provide teeth"
for a measure that lacked them.
Such, however, is by no means clearly
the case.
The insertion of teeth" signifies
the provision of measures for the
practical enforcement OF a proposed
law; in this instance, specifically, the
provision of an effective penalty for
persuading railroad employees to quit
their jobs in defiance OF decisions Of
the Railroad Board.
Our neighbor the World, In its
Washington correspondence. says
that Senator PorNpExTER presented an
anti-strike and teeth-putting amend
ment to the Esch-Cummins bill; that
this amendment was defeated, Sen
ator HARDING not voting upon it, and
that Senator PorNpExTER thereupon
embodied his anti-strike measures in
a separate bill Ito prohibit interfer-
ence with commerce"
The final statement only is accu-
rate. After the enactment and ap-
proval on March /, 1920. of the Esch-
Cummins bill without the teeth, he
advocated teeth in a speech delivered
on April II, 1920. when the subject
OF anti-strike dentistry was by him
broadly and boldly discussed. Senator
PoINpExTER then introduced a bill
making it a felony to attempt to per-
suade employees to quit their jobs
and providing heavy penalties for in
timidation and sabotage. This bill
was reported from committee but
never came to vote.
What Senator HARDING had done
was to vote, on December 20, 1919,
together with forty-five other Sena-
tors, for the original Cummins bill,
in which there was an anti-strike
provision; but his vote then was a
vote for the general measure, not a
special vote on the question Of en-
abling toothless creature to bite.
While the Cummins bill was under
discussion in December. 1919. two
amendments proposed by Senator
PorSpExrER were voted upon and re-
1ected. Senator HANDING voted against
one Poindexter amendment on De-
cember IT; but this amendment re.
lated not to anti-strike measures but
to the long and short haul question
Two days later another OF Senator
Po1YpExTERs motions to amend was
rejected, Senator HARDING then not
voting: but this again related to dis
criminatory rates and not to strikes.
Accordingly, THE New York HER.
AID will be under obligations to any
learned historiographer who will
supply an exact reference to the page
OF the Record which chronicles any
really significant vote by Senator
HARDING for inserting teeth, or any
significant failure by him to vote
either for or against such teeth
inserting clause.
