the Issues involved were local. Fo
the same reason. Howell's success Il
Nebraska is similarly to be discount
ed as an indication OF party-split
AS for the La Toilette victory, tina
is manifestly to be attributed TO th'
strength of personal following. Fol
more than twenty years that candi
date has stood in high favor with
elements that constitute a majority

field brings no surprise to those
who are acquainted with conditions
there. The result simply shows that
La Toilette still holds the affections
OF his>party's majority. which he first
won nearly a quarter OF a century
ago, and is in no sense to be listed as
registration of revolt sentiment.
Only partisanship blurred eyes can
see signs pointing TO revolt within
the Republican party in these pri-
mary results. For 1t is evident that,
II the Wctors should win in the Fall
election, the Republican party would
still hold its alignment unweakened.
And that they will so win is indicat-
ed by the primary majorities that
they rolled up. Nominations of can
didates in Pennsylvania, Indiana,
North Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa and
Wisconsin have unquestionably gone
to those who will make the best run.
This last makes It difficult TO see
how Democrats can find solace in
Republican progressive" victories.
These primary Victories make Re-
publican victories in the election
more certain. Each of the so-called
progressive" nominations merely
means selection OF the Republican
candidate IN the voting State most
difficult for Democrats to defeat.
Nor would the election OF these can
didates in any way threaten the
party with subsequent embarrass-
ment. For with Pinchot as Governor
of Pennsylvania in harmony with
the administration and with Bever-
idge and others of this group sup
porting IL, as they can be counted on
TO do, the Republican party would
hold It's full strength. As for La
Toilette he would still be La Tollette,
as he has been in the past. And as

EDITORIAL OPINION

(Translation from Narod. Bohe-

Many Americans think that
America has not done enough for
Europe. Many Europeans in the
old country think likewise.
There IS, however, a considerable
difference between these two class
es of observers. The Americans we
have referred to are led by motives
OF unselfshness and generosity TO
the opinion that still more could be
done. The Europeans ignoring all
that has been done. feel disgruntled
merely because they would like to
be recipients to a still greater ex-
tent.
Americans of foreign extraction
can perhaps appreciate the situa-
tion better than the native born
ones. We have personal knowledge
Of the conditions that prevail in
different European countries; we
are able to exchange ideas with

We are aware that America enter

millions from being killed, and that
she has given billions of dollars and

Most Of the trouble we have gone

is that so many elements in our

puts It. They have not met their
obvious obligations. The most re-
cent instances are the mine oPer-

were morally obligated to produce
coal. The railroad shopmen were
morally obligated to keep the trains

The OFFER OF compromise terms by
the shopmen and acceptance by a
steadily increasing number Of en-
ployer railroads place railway trans
portation in sight of the end OF the
strike. Under the compromise
terms proposed, the strikers. by
groups in which they were employed
by the railroads at time OF walkout,
offer to resume work on the basis
OF wage schedules now in effect
as many as possible of each group
ito be Immediately put to work"
and the remainder to be put to work
under pay within thirty days after
acceptance. This offer has been ac-
cepted by a number OF important
railroads and will doubtless be
accepted by a number of others
that have places for the strikers.
To the shopmen. the maxi
mum gain derivable from such
settlement is unemployment to
the extent warranted by the needs
of transportation at wage rates fixed
by the United States Railroad Labor
Board last June. This is less than
nil. For if they had not walked out.
the shopmen would have retained
work at the same wage rates and
IN full force. To loss of opportunity
from employment OF new
men to take the places vacated by
he walkout, is to be added loss in
wages in estimating the cost of the |
strike to the strikers. The losses sus-
aimed by the public as a result OF |
he strike have been incalculable.

AGAINST GENERAL STRIKE

From the Washington Post.
Expression Of individual opinion
by members OF the executive coun-
Gil OF the American Federation OF
Labor relative to a general strike
against the injunction prohibiting
interference with transportation
practically assures official stand
against such action. According to
reports, members of the council are,
without exception, opposed to or
ganized labor's employment of such
method Of venting its wrath against
the restraining order. And rightly
so.
Doubtless members OF the council
realize that pursuit of such a course
would antagonize the public to an
extent that would seriously injure
labor's cause. For. while q general
strike would NORMALLY be directed
against the injunction and those re-
spQnsible for It's issue, its injurious
effects would fall on the American
people. And the reaction of a ma
tion that is smarting and suffering
under injuries sustained in recent
strikes could easily be forecast. II
would be against labor. And labor
can not afford to risk this.
Talk of general strike is a simple
matter for hot-headed leaders who
do not count the cost; but it would
prove very expensive to labor II itI
should act in accord Herewith. Such
strike would accomplish nothing
beyond a fiouting American people.
The nations government, with its
mighty powers and practically un-
limited resources, is not 10 be thus
intimidated. The overwhelming odds
against organized workers would
sentence domineering effort of this
sort to failure from the outset. And
