HOW MUCH DO STRIKES
COST THE NATION!
Curious Figures Based on Depart
ment of Labor Statistics

WASHINGTON, July 6-Statistics
issued by the Department of Labor
show that strikes in this country av-
erage more than 5000 per year. 1t is
not contended by the department that
its figures are accurate, since they
depend upon newspaper and trade
paper reports for the most part, but
that thye are under, rather than over
statements.
1t is impossible truthfully to esti-
mate the average cost of strike, since
they vary so in duration, number of
workmen affected and economic loss
through whatever industry is wholly
or partially shut down. But if the
most conservative possible estimate be
adopted, and it is considered that the
average strike affects 100 workmen,
and that the average strike lasts 10
days, the total arrived at is 100000
working days lost per year. If the
average cost to each workman is SIS
per day and the average loss to each
industry does not exceed three times
the loss to the workmen, then strikes
cost this country some $66,000,0O0
year.
1t is not believed that these figures
are anything but suggestive. The
average strike undoubtedly affects
thousands, rather than hundreds, and
for many more than ten days; few un-
ion laborers receive as little as S. a
day, and. of course, the industry ar
fected suffers out of all proportion TO
the workmen.
But, it is pointed out at the Capitol,
if it were true that only $66,0O0,O00
were wasted by strikes every year,
that 100000 spent in proper chan
nels on arbitration would undoubtedly
stop most if not all of the strikes!
II mikht be an economic measure to
spend part of it for accurate sta
tistics of strike costs to the country;
a little education on what it really
costs to stop work might make people
less willing to indulge in, or cause,
strikes
