GETTING TOGETHER

In waving the right to strike
shop crafts OF sixteen railroads VINO
have signed up with the roads IN
question, have set precedent IN
the modern industrial world, and
have opened up new precedents tor
the peaceable settlement OF INDUS
trial disturbances.
These shop crafts did not relin-
quish any ground gained during the
past few years by labor, we think.
By their settlement they agree to
leave all future matters 10 the gov
eminent railroad board, a board
composed of men who give their
time and thought to just such ques-
tions as will effect rail employees
and employers. Certainly such a
board should be able to deal fairly
with the men as we'll as the EN-
ployers.
The Ardmoreite believes that al!
industrial matters should be lett
to such a tribunal, provided the tri-
bunal possesses two very much
necessary requisites, nancy fairness
and knowledge.
Industrial groups, such as rail-
road empoyes, miners, etc, demand
and deserve not only living wage
but a saving wage-this is what
they should get at all times. With
the strong arm OF the strike ever
present, however, it is easy for these
groups or any other for that mat
ter, to take more. The natural ten
dency OF the human being is to
take all he can get, and just here is
where an arbitration board is a dis
tinct necessity in such times as
these.
The Ardmoreite hopes that the
next few years will hnds industrial
boards handling all matters effect
ing industry, and especially all mat
tiers that effect the public veal.
