Prohibition has its defects. There
is much drinking in some homes
among people who never thought
of it before the country went dry
In the main, though, the nation
is basically against alcohol. A
referendum would find good
many vets at the last minute,
changing their minds and voting
dry. Light wines and beer may be
returning, maybe not, but the
hard stuff" is gone for good. In
all the talk about modifying the
Volstead act" the most interesting
feature is that practically no one is
plugging for return of the saloon.
And the Town Drunkards who
have reformed by necessity are the
driest OF drys, in a good many
cases-eXcept where they couldn't
stand the change and the under
taker had to pour them back into
the jug.

TO THEIR OWN AID

The most encouraging omen OF
recent times is the increasing ac-
t;vity OF farmers in their own be-
half-and mass activity at that.
Farmers have been given what
might be called the small end OF the
national deal for years, due to the
:act that they alone have been un-
able as a body to demand just and
right necessities in the matter OF
market and legislation.
Politicians, to be sure, have
pledged them this and that, and it
has been an easy matter for writ
ers to point out the fact that the
farmers must be given what was
coming to them before economic
ills could be remedied, but little has
actually been done to protect the
farming interests of the country.
Every fellow has been looking
out for himself, and the farmer,
isolated and fighting his battles as
an Individual has been swallowed
up by the combination of interests
which beset him.
The Ardmoreite does not believe
that legislation alone is going to
help the farmer materially-cer-
tainly not legislation that attempts
to right economic Ills with political
measures.
What the farmer must do is to
combine against those who are al
ready combined against him-and
that is Just what he is doing.
In Oklahoma City last week the
Farmers Union OF Oklahoma met.
Thi. union is only one of a great
number in the United States. The
farmers are sticking together for
the first time. The farmers passed
resolutions calling for this and
that, and impressing politicians
with their needs. That was we'll and
good, but the really encouraging
feature of the whole affair was the
gathering of farmers themselves,
and for the avowed purpose Of
helping themselves.
Cooperative marketing and ware
house systems will do more for the
farmers than any other one thing
and will do more for them than all
the platform pledges OF all the poll
ticians of the world. And the farm
ers must do it for themselves.

All Town Drunkards, whether
or not they were like the father Of
Huckleberry Finn. always had
some woman eating her heart out
with worry.
How many people, now schem-
ing like bucketshop plungers to get
drink, recall the heartaches and
misery in the home where some
male member had developed the
appetite that was getting the best
of him.
The outlaw, ohm Barleycorn, has
become almost an heroic figure.
People seem to be forgetting his
monstrous side.

worthless sons OF respectable and
hardworking families. Whether
rich or poor, in village or city, they
were all tarred with the same
stick. Their thirst was Characters

When the Town Drunkard
couldn't bum the price OF a drink
he sometimes resorted to draining

empty bottles behind the village
tavern or the depot where they
awaited shipment back to the

Railroads Are Enforcing Lockout
Are Offering Lower Wages, Longer Hours
and Harder Working Conditions to Men

The contracting Of repair work by railroads is gigantic
lockout of their shop employees.
These workers notified that all connection between
them and the railroad end and they desire remain
employed they must apply to the private that has
tracted to do the railroads repair work
Then the shop employees find the purpose of the lockout
they offered lower wages longer hours and working
conditions
The railroads defend this contracting by the
different from other contracts they enter into.
This claim is most superficial 1t will not stand analysis
By locking out these employees the roads have broken
which call for specified notice before
have violated seniority rights which workers after long
service and they have ended privileges that have always
associated with railroad work.
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1922-06-09

To say that the railroads discharg-
ed these workers is to play with
words. The railroads do not want
these workers to quit. If they did
quit the railroads would turn on
their tap of public virtue and hys-
terra that served them in their cam
paign for the Cummins-Esch bill and
on every other occasion when their
hand is open rather than fish shape.
The Cummins- -Esch law provides
that wages shall be "iust and rea-
sonable," and the railroad labor
private contracting takes wages of
these employees outside the boards
jurisdiction and nullifies the intent
of congress.
The law also empowers the board
to act in any dispute that sis likely
to substantially interrupt COM
merce."
1t must be borne in mind that the
railroads demanded this law and
their newspapers insisted on its pass
age The latter called upon every
citizen to join the chorus for JUS
tice to the public. the railroads and
the employees.
This charming picture, however,
has been disarranged since the finan-
ciers have squeezed the Cummins-
Esch act for about the last penny
and now consider it liability, rather
than an asset in their labor crushing
policy.
Its labor provisions are flouted by
the men who made the law possible
and their newspapers are mute. The
contracting with private companies
has been most braZen. No one de-
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1922-06-09

nies that these companies are dunn
mics without capitalization or finan-
cial standing and use the shops Of
the railroads they have contracted
with.
The board has recently ruled in
the case of an obscure railroad. that
its contracting is a violation of the
Cummins-E law and that while
the decision applies only to that
road. the principle will be applied to
all others when their cases are re-
viewed.
And the other roads quickly noti-
fly the board. through the public
press. that the boards policy will be
resisted.
The purpose of this lockout is
clear. The railroads want cheaper
production, regardless of Justice. law.
contracts. custom and understand
ings between men.
1t now remains for some federal
Judge to exonerate the railroads and
envelope with his clammy legalisms
and cob-webby lore the attempt Of
the roads to violate and degrate
working conditions at the same time.
This lockout will be remembered
by workers the next time they are
assured that their dependence upon
economic power would not be neces-
sary if they trust a government
board to ascertain the facts and
then depend upon public opinion to
enforce a Just award"
This is the favorite sing song to
labor of those editors who are now
silent while the railroads wreck the
law they iammed through congress
with the aid of the most extensive
lobby ever assembled.
