INJUNCTION is BEST
STRIKE STOPPER,
SAYS WALL STREET

(By A. +. of l.. News Service.)
Washington President Hard
ing's close political friends debating
to Wall street or is Wall street dietat-
ing to them?
Only recently Secretary of Labor
Davis and former United States Sen
road labor board should be abolished.
Publicity agents of Wall street are
now making the same claim. These
views are summarized by Benjamin
Baker in the Annalist, "a magazine of
finance, commerce and economics"
The writer says the board should
be abolished and its duties assigned
to the interstate commerce commits
sion whose chairman should appoint
three members of the commission for
this work. The theory of having en-
ployes and management represented
on this board is abandoned
The writer says there is no neces-
sity for congress passing cant
strike" laws. The Wilkerson injunc-
ton, he says, will serve every purpose
that can't-strike" law would Be-
sides, there is no necessity for arous-
ing the workers and launch new
propaganda when the railroads have
made their point that the government
will hereafter come to their aid and
smash a railroad strike.
Mr.. Baker graciously acknowledges
that 'labor is entitled to ask" that
when its economic weapon be taken
from it that the public shall assume
obligations to equalize that loss.
The article indicates that Wall
street and certain members of the
presidents cabinet, at least, are
agreed that the Wilkerson injunction
will now serve every purpose that a
| cant strike" law would without
causing opposition to the political
agents of plutocracy. The railroads
will not object to being denied repre-
sentation on the new wage commits
sion as they are never antagonized
when members of the interstate COM
merce commission are appointed. By
taking the appointment of the new
wage board from the president, Mr.
Baker frankly states that ''politica
pressure" can be used against the

RIGHT TO WORK"
ONE-SIDED THEORY

by A. f. of l.. News Service.)
Washington.--"The fact has been
burned into our hearts that the only
time working man has the right to
work guaranteed him by the govern
ment is when he is under the protec-
ton of strike breaking agency"
says the Journal of Electrical Work
ers and Operators.
IF this were not true, and if Mr..
Harding really meant what he said,
the government would have enforced
the right to work of the thousands,
yes, millions, of jobless men who
were compelled last winter to tramp
the streets, because they did not have
the consent of small set of men.
At that time Mr.. Harding and his
imitators did nothing about sustaining
the sacred right of those hungry and
desperate men to work, eat and live.
"All this cant about workers
right to work Is simply an attempt
to uphold the disgractful act of scab-
bling, make strikebreaking agency
out of the federal government and
pave the road and try to take away
his right to quito strike.
80 We must drive home to every
wage Garner that the only rights he
possesses are those he is strong
enough to get and to keep--no more.
At all times it is question of organ
iZation."

OF INTEREST TO
STOCKHOLDERS OF
GET-GAS COMPANY

Many inquiries have come to The
Review office about the status Of the
Get-Gas Service Stations, and letter
addressed to John II. Walker, presi-
dent Of the Illinois Federation of
Labor, has brought the following re-
ply:
Mr.. c. F. Daugherty President
Twin City Federation of Labor.
Enclosed you will please find letter
which | received today from Secre-
tary of State Louis l.. Emmerson
which explains itself, which think is
about all the information you will be
able to get on that subject.
J. II. WALKER. President.
Springfield, Oct. "a, 1922.-Mr. J.
II. Walker, President, The Illinois
State Federation of Labor, 728 Illinois
Mine Workers Bldg, Springfield,
Illinois.
In re: Get Gas Service Stations, Inc.
Dear Sir:-Your favor of the 23d
inst, enclosing letter from c. +.
Daugherty, President Twin City Fed
Grafton of Labor, received.
This company is local organiza-
ton and qualified the sale of consid-
cradle stock under the Illinois Securi-
ties Law; its preferred stock to be
sold at par, $1,000 per share, and its
common stock of no par value, to be
sold at $500 per share.
In January of this year, they sent
out a notice of dividend of 400 on
its common stock, in addition to the
dividend of so on preferred stock
ouptstanding.
The Securities Department, on ex-
animation of its financial condition,
was of the opinion that the company
had not made any profits, and that
payment of dividends on its common
stock must come out of capital assets
and was not justified, as the state
ment up to December 81, 1921,
showed that the company had not
made any real profits, but had operat-
ed at loss.
The Securities Department notified
the company that it could not approve
the sale of further stock if the COM
pany declared a dividend of 400 on
its common stock. Thereupon, the
company requested the Department to
cancel its authority to sell stock in
Illinois, which was done.
| have had no further information
regarding the company since it's state
ment of December 81, 1921, and am
unable to give you any real informa-
ton as to its present financial condi-
ton. However, number of COM
plants have been made lately regard
ing the affairs of the company, and
| am informed that several suits are
threatened against the company for
the return of money paid for stock.
The company is not required under
the law to make reports as to its
financial affairs after the sale of stock
is discontinued.
Yours very truly,
LOUIS l. IMMERSION,
Secretary of State.

Union.
In Cigarmakers' Journal)
By international Labor News Service
The next Congress will no doubt
attempt to pass compulsory arbi-
tration law. Such law in some form
Is evidently desired by the present
anti-union forces. The railroad work
ers have apparently been picked as
the goat, perhaps with the hope that
they can be placed in the public serv-
ice class and thus a greater pressure
can be brought to bear against them.
1t is proposed to "put teeth" in the
Esch-Cummins law. This means that
railroad employees will then have to
submit their wage demands and adj
justments to hand-picked United
States Labor Board or commission
that will be empowered to COMPEL
the workers under penalty of fines or
Imprisonment to accept any decision
the board may see fit to award.
Such a proposition in any form is
wholly impractical and highly danger
Gus. American workmen in any line
are not going to submit to being

set, nor are they going to tamely ac-
cept any punishment for their refusal.
Price fixing by the government in
industries in which it is not directly
and actively engaged has proven the
greatest failure of our present econo-
mic life. Wages is the price of rail-
road labor and price fixing along this
line will meet with abject failure at
least so long as the government does
not own and control the industry.
The principle is not new. 1t has
been tried and found a failure from
the time of the French Revolution
down to the preeent fizzle of the Aus
tralian law. Labor hating congress-
men had better forget such reaction
AIRY legislation. Such law with
teeth in it," if passed, is liable to be

much Of the million and a half dollars
was expended in securing this enof-
nous number of affidayits, but ! am
sure that if these affidavits served
any purpose whatever il was the rail

"Mr. Daughertys Characterization
Of the strike and the strikers is SO
filled with hatred, ezaggeration and
calumny that every thinking person
will understand il for what it is. The
official who presides over the depart
ment Of justice is supposed to be in
terested in the even=handed dispens-
ing Of justice. and he is supposed to
be interested only in an impartial ek-
animation of the truth.
"Mr. Daugherty says the railroad
strike was a bold challenge to con-
stitutional government and that the
strikers 'mutinied against a decis-
ion Of the railroad labor board.
Mr.. Daugherty IS full aware OF the
fact that the transportation act spe
officially recognizes the right to strike,
that there is nothing in the eonstitu-
ton of the United States which for
bids the right to strike, and that there
is nothing in any law Of the United
States which makes it unlawful to
strike.

to hear a more hamboyant TRADE
from a high government official.

it fitting to classify Mr. Daugherty

ASSOCIATED PRESS
DEFINITION. OF
STRIKE BREAKER

The Associated Press has discov-
cred something new about strike
breakers. 1t has discovered that
"men who act individually in accept
ing positions" are not strike breakers.
How the Associated Press made this
discovery is not known.
The Commercial Telegraphers'
journal quotes the following from
the Associated Press service orders,
the orders to men who write and
handle A. p. copy.
Look out for that word strike
breaker 1t is associated in the public
mind with the bully or thug supplied
by professional breaking agen-
cies and should not be used to describe
men who act individually in accepting
positions"
SO, it is discovered that these who
are not professionals" are ~ to be
known as strike breakers.
This is very kind of the associated
Press, and doubtless Mr.. Atterbury,

There is no difference between the
new plan and a "can't-strike" law.
In one case an injunction judge
backed by the government enforces
his edict that a strike is a conspiracy,
and in the other case the government
enforces an edict by congress that if
workers strike they violate the law.
The injunction process, however,
is supposed to be painless, while the
passage of 'can't-strike" law would
provoke resentment.

FAKE unions
USED BY ANTS;
SHOP MEN SIGN

Chicago.-On motion by the de-
partment of justice, Judge Wilkerson
has ruled that evidence on the shop
mems injunction shall be referred to
a master in chancery. This permits
the judge to get out from UNDER"
and now he will only be called upon
to pass upon the masters report. At
torneys for the shop men insist that
a jury trial be permitted as the
charges involve violation of criminal
law.
The shop men are waging their
strike with vigor and are not per-
hitting the administration injunc-
ton to interfere with either their
rights or their legal activities Agree
ments have been reached on more than
liz roads. These include the largest
systems in the country-Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul, Baltimore & Ohio,
Chicago & Northwestern, New York
Central, Chesapeake & Ohio, Boston
& Albany, Chicago Great Western,
the Big Four, the Monon route, Sea-
board Air Line, and Erie.
1t is announced that l6 railroads
have formed company unions" and
that these have signed agreements
with the roads. Or in other words,
these roads have signed agreements
with themselves.
In this list are the Pennsylvania,
Lehigh Valley, Southern Pacific, Iii
nois Central, Union Pacific and other
roads that have opposed the organized
shop men wherever possible.
The company union" is a change
from former open opposition which is
now maintained through secret con-
troll of the 'union" while publicly
affecting an interest in the workers
welfare.
1t is stated that these roads have
agreed not to litigate if workers sur
render their right to strike. 1t will
be noticed that no individual n0hts
of the railroad managers are sur
rendered, even though they agree that
their corporations will no longer be-
come involved i'm litigation with EN-
ployes for the very good reason that
employees have surrendered every
right, thereby making it unnecessary
for the roads to litigate.
