Editorial Opinion on Seniority

When President Harding goes so
far as to propose that even the
faithful old employees and the com
petent new men shall be pushed
aside to make room for the strikers
in all OF their old rights. is seems to
us that he is asking too much OF the
railroads and OF the public's interest
in their operation. unbroken by
these periodical strikes.

SENIORITY RIGHTS AND JUSTICE
From the Boston Transcrlpt.

From the Boston Transcript.
The truth is that the striking
shopmen have failed to date, in their
nefarious purpose. which was to grab
the country by the throat and choke
II into a surrender. Were It not for
the coal strike the railroad strike
could be broken Internationally
within a fortnight, without resort to
force.
No negotiations should be encour-
aged by any Representatives of the
Government that look toward any
thing less than justice to the shop
craft men who refused to strike or
10 the volunteers who came TO their
support.

AN UNREASONABLE DEMAND.

From the Richmond Times Dispatch.
The heralded settlement OF the
shopmen's strike has gone on the
rocks of the seniority issue. and
fair-minded observers will find It ex-
tremely difficult to understand. in
the light OF the nat demand made
upon the railway executives how
President Harding could have ex-
pected any other fate for his plan.
Accepting. conditionally, the other
sections Of Mr.. Hardings plan. the
railway executives yesterday re-
jected this demand by unanimous
vote. And it should have been re-
jected. As earnestly as the Ameri-
can people desire industrial peace,
as apprehensive as they may be over
the prospect Of continued strife. 1t
IS quite inconceivable that they
would welcome a settlement of this
stril8 on such terms.
Questions. not only of policy but
Of simple Justice and good faith, are
here involved. An intensely praeti-
cal consideration may be found in
the fact that to yield TO Mr.. Hard
ing's demand on this point would
place the country's transportation
absolutely at the mercy of any rail
strike.

WHY \ STRIKE?
lm the MINNEAPOLIS journal.

From the Minneapolis Journal.
The difficulty now is that new men
have been brought in 10 do the work,
and these men. as well as those who
remained faithfully on the job. are
entitled 10 seniority rights over those
who quit. The arrangements. in
deed, have made solemn promise to
that effect.
II the shopmen priced their sem
iority rights and their prospect OF
pensions in old age. why did they
strike? They knew that striking
meant forfeiture. They were well
warned Of this before and after the
strike began. The rail managements
even set the dates publicly after
which these rights would be eor-
feited by those who did not return
to work.
II seniority Is now the only issue,
It follows that the present compro-
mise Of all other issues could as wei
have been reached before the strike
order was given. In that case gherc
would have been no seniority issue
and no strike, with the best of pros
poets for Industrial peace on the rail-
roads.

LEGION COMMITTEEMAN
R. A Nicholson, Ellis, Kansas.
Some of the resolutions adopted
can be seen elsewhere in this paper.
They relate to compensation measure
to be voted on next November as well
as the bills now pending in Congress
relating to compensation and also to
help the ex-service man so that he
is given preference in civil service
and other appointments. Then, of
course, the resolution committee
gave US one filled with words of
gratitude for the way Hays handled
six conventions and meets in one day
and everybody had good time.
One man got excited when ne
learned what the people in Hays had
planned to do on Saturday and asked
''Do they take care of them when
they come more than in triplets?"
Everybody-had his chance to have
his say both as to the place of meet
ing and to extol the good qualities of
his town and to tell what was going
to happen during the year. Here are
some of the things that are going to
be Legion Red Letter days in the
Sixth District, to wit:
Goodland- Meeting for 1928, and
Fourth of July 1922;
Hays Fourth of July, 1922;
Downs Homecoming, Corner
stone Laying of Memorial Hall, All
Legion Days, July 27, %, and 29th,
1922;
EHis-Armistice Day, November
II, 1922.
From the way the announcements
were made one could easily tell that
Legion boys are boosters and nothing
was left unsaid that you should ex-
pect good time and get the best
there is in the market Stunts of all
kinds belong to all these meets and
the performers come from all parts
of the world.
The Parade
Was good but it was not as long as
was expected. The threatening rain
kept thousands away from this con-
vention as we'll as from other meets
scheduled. As it was it was good.
The Normal band followed the escort
with colors. Admiral Benson with
escort followed by the American Lee
gion. Very few citizens availed
themselves of the opportunity to
march but such was not the case with
the school children for they were all
eager to ''keep STEP with the Legion.

THE AMERICAN LEGION CON.
VENTION
The Dance

''Good bye, So Long, Well meet
you and lot more at Goodland, next
year," that was heard on all sides
at the conclusion of the Legion Ball,
Saturday night. The light steps com
menced to trip at p. m, Saturday
but when it was all over ut was very
close to Sunday morning. Nobody
paid any attention to any timepiece.
The music made one forget its flight.
The Banquet
The Grand Ball was proceeded byI
a sumptuous banquet served just
right in the K. of C. Hall, by the
Presbyterian Ladies' Aid. The ladies
are certainly entitled to all they made
out of the banquet and unlimited
praise for this happy occasion. Adj
miral Benson was the guest of honor
and he did justice to the occasion by
telling US of the Merchant Marine
and what it will do for this country
in time of peace. The way he ex-
plaind it to US our exporters are get
ting the worst of the bargain for
they are compelled to use Ships of
their foreign competitors. In refer
ence to way we need fear no foreign
foe but it is of forces inside of the
United States that viii play havoc
with our institutions unless checked.
He paid tribute to Hays and its
musical talent.
The girls from the Normal gave
several numbers and in every in
stance they were called back two or
three times. Carl Malmberg's violin
solo made him come back twice.
J. H. Bracken, Blot, the outgoing
chairman of the Sixth District, acted
as POSTMASTER and was the master of
the occasion. He called upon aside
from Admiral Benson, G. K. Withers
of Clay Center; Mrs. Andrew Plat
ner, President of the Gold Star Sec
ton of the Auxiliary; Mrs Rose z.
Cravens, Department President of
the Auxiliary, of Salina; Comrade
Evers of Goodland, and others, and
last of all he called upon w. S. Met
calf, Department Commander of the
American Legion of Kansas.
Everyone responded with some
happy thought that made every guest
feel envious of people who were en-
titled to belong to the Legion or the
Auxiliary.
The way it looked the Auxiliary is
working harder for the State Com
pensation than the Legion boys are.
One argument advanced in favor of
compensation is that for every thou
sand dollars of property it will cost
thirty cents on the assessed valuation
and for the twenty-five years it will
cost the great m-of $3.50.
A census has been taken of how
the boys fool away the money in
other states where the checks are
being turned over to the service men.
Only five per cent has ben spent for
''foOlishness.
SHOULD the boys be paid it was
asked, zone dollar. for every day in
service?" Well, the men in the
munition factories were paid often
more than eight dollars for making
bullets and now why should not the
service man be paid one dollar per
day for stopping Fritz's bullets.

can be certain the management was

as well as the hundreds for there were

The music furnished at the differ

and got interested to the extent of
