STUPID GOVERNMENT

Government in the United
States is incredibly stupid and in
efficient. 1t is the first business
of the public to reform and I'M
prove il. Without that, nothing
else matters much.
Take the coal strike as an eN-
ample. Everybody knew months
beforehand that it was coming.
Everybody knew the motives be-
hind it. Ii was an attempt to
put over" the old gag. repeated
so many times, of a pretended
difference between operators and
miners. ending with a pretended
agreement which should be fol
lowed hy an advance in prices
great enough to give both of the
actors in the big show fine
slice.
II was pretty clear that the old
game would not work. because
The country would not stand for
IN advance in coal prices which
are now at least one third higher
than they should be. But miners
md operators are not very IN
ventive people, even with the
lure Of doodle; and they thought
hat they might get something
ont Of a nationwide disturbance.
- the strike wa declared.
Vow the situation. so far as
lie duty Of public authorities is
roncerned. wa the same the dag
after the men walked ont as 1t
is today. Ii was pefectly obvious
hat nothing would be done for
months. since that was what both
parties desired. Both Of them
wished to wait until the threat Of
n coal shortage in the face Of ap-
preaching winter should compel
somebody to do something And
everybody cheerfully agreed TO
follow this very studid policy.
The only thing 10 be done IN
the ease Of any strike is 10 de-
clare from the first moment that
the right Of each man TO quit work
or to continue work as he chooses
is sacred; and that protection

ernments are too stupid and in
