A Way to Strike Settlement.

Chairman Hooper of the Railroad
Labor Board and B. NJ. Jewell, leader
of the railroad shop crafts. are making
explanations which may effect a meet
ing and a settlement of the strike.
Chairman Hooper says that the board
has not "outlawed" the unions, but
that the board has merely accepted
the statement of the leader that the
striking men are not employees OF the
carriers. This puts out of the case
the unpleasant word outlaw" against
which Jewell and other labor leaders
took. strong exceptions. On his side,
Mr.. Jewell explains his failure to ap-
pear before the Labor Board last Fri
day, in response to invitation, on the
ground that to do so would have re-
suited in "a moblike suspension of
work by the shopmen and possibly
bloodshed." An attempt at an elev
enth-hour settlement to avert a walk
ont would have resulted, he says, in
chaos.
If these explanations have the effect
OF bringing about a resumption Of
work they will have been we'll worth
while, whatever view may be taken
of them. In point of fact. the strike
seems to have ''f1ivvered." 1t has not
thus far had any effect at all upon
the operation of the roads and has
been participated in. indeed, by far
less than 100 per cent of the member
ship. On some lines only a very small
percentage of the shop workers have
gone out. In practically all the lines
the vacancies have been filled in some
measure and shop work is continuing
at rate to keep the roads in running
order for the present.
A sign that the striking shopmen
realize the unlikelihood of success ap-
pears in the disorders reported from
the middle western area, where in
some cases new employees have been
forcibly ousted from shops, and in
others attempts have been made to
prevent the movement Of trains. There
has been some interference with the
mails. also. and this Is an indication
of either bad leadership or a break
down of union discipline. For the
surest way to lose a railroad strike is
to. stop the transportation of the
mails. That brings the United States
government into the case directly.
with the inevitable result Of federal
Intervention and the collapse of the
strike
1t is possible that the failure Of a
complete walkout Of the shopmen, and
especially the refusal Of the mainte-
nance-of-way men to follow, have con-
tributed to the present willingness of
the shopcraft unions leaders to confer
on terms Of strike settlement. Appar-
entity the only terms possible are
prompt resumption Of work and ac-
ceptance of the wage boards rulings,
with perhaps assurances of further
consideration of the wage question and
cancellation Of repair contracts by the
carriers. THE way is open now for
such an adjustment.

Lenglen is still Handicapped by. her

Broad statement that, but walk

morning with: that peculiar slant in
mind-count the white collars II you
will. notice how few slovenly dressed,
untidy, and soiled people you can
count. !: .-is.. ~ .,s4 :
/ OF course. the fact has not yet been
proven by statistics. as mono has yet
had the temerity to count all the
white collars in Washington. but
there are certain; figures which do
er persons here with incomes below
the average in the United States than
in the usual American CITY,.
i *+x
In other words II you pay an income
tax and wear a white collar, you be-
long to the Washington society of the
selected 1884 per cent (not Liquor,
but people). That 1894 per cent Of
the population OF the District to
which You belong is more than twice
as large as the proportion. 6.s5 per
cent of the average Americans
throughout this nation who paid in
come tax. If the truth were known
about your home town Of Keokuk or
kokomo, the chances are about ten
to one that fewer of your friends
there are paying income tax, and are
entitled to the white collar than
here in Washington.
Or course. it has been admitted that
the prevalence OF the clerical force in
Washington brings the white collar.
Just because one wears a white col
lar does not entitle one to the pride
of plutocrat. Sometimes 1t is a
necessity with which the wearer
would gladly dispense.
The fact that persons in Washing
ton dress better than their cousins
in Keokuk Is not always evidence
of fatness OF purse. For clerks in
Washington often spend their money
for fine clothes. while their cousins
in Keokuk would more wisely put
it into the sock or savings bank. AS
matter of fact the average taxed
income here was $e,9SS.5o. as COM
pared with the much higher $3.269.40
of the nation.
But, howsomever and nevertheless.

Base Ball for Englishmen.

The inertia of the masses is per-
haps the most powerful obstacle with
which Sir. Arthur will have to con-
tend as he begins to carry out his
self-appointed role Of acting as base
balls advance agent in England.
Britfshers Of all ages and conditions
ditional tenacity to the game of
cricket, itself sport with many good
points. There IS something in the
numbering gait of the cricketeer, and
in the leisurely requirements of a
cricket match, that seem peculiarly
we'll adapted to the English tempera-
ment. A cricket match is social
several days. and afternoon tea is a
ime-honored ceremony at most of
the leading matches. Imagine a half
hours intermissfon for tea, for both
spectators and players. in the seventh
inning of base ball game, when
excitement on both sides is at white
heat pitch! Efforts have been made
in years past to transplant the Amer
lean national game onto English soil,
but these efforts have heretofore met
with Indifferent success. Granted
that base ball is q better game in
much better suited to the fire and
dash of youth. the fact remains that
English boys for Q hundred years
have been brought up to play cricket
with their elders, and q habit of cen
turtles Ia not easily to be broken.
Logically, base ball, properly intro
duced, ought to capture English youth
literally overnight. But will 1t thus
be accepted, even though so eminent
q man as Sir Arthur is its sponsor?
