R

A Washington dispatch says that the president
is being urged by some of his advisers to demand of
the railroads that they end ther strike by restoring
the seniority and similar rights of the strikers.
1t is generally understood that the adoption Of
this course by the roads would bring the strike to an
end. There are other matters under discussion, but
it appears that it is the matter of seniority which
presents the chief obstacle to immediate resumption
of work. The other controverted questions, it is
generally agreed, can be disposed of on a basis
which will be accepted by both parties.
If it is true that the dispute over seniority con-
stitutes thenonly real obstacle to a resumption of
work, the strikers have failed in the attainment of
any one of the real purposes for which they struck,
for the basis on which it is reported that resumption
of work would be ordered by the union leaders is
that the controverted questions be left for settle.
ment by means of the machinery which existed prior
to the strike, and in accordance with the methods
prescribed by law.
The net result of the strike then would be that
the strikers, having undertaken to force concessions
from the railroads, after rejecting the decisions {of
the labor board. and after having absented them
selves from work for a month, now return to work
without having gained a single one of the conces-
slons for which they struck, but without prejudice
to their own positions as continuous employees of
their respective companies.
For the government to- issue such an order or
make such a demand would be equivalent to serving
notice when the employees in an industry essential
to the life of the nation choose to leave their employ
ment for the purpose of enforcing demands, reason
able or unreasonable, they may lay down their tools
and suspend operations at will, and may remain
away from their employment as long as they please,
and then, at their pleasure, may resume operations,
with all their former rights and privileges intact,
their position differing in no manner from that of
men who ha~veremained at work, aiding in carrying
on the work for which the business exists, and pro
viding the public with the service which is essential
to its existence.
We need transportation, but that is too big a
price to pay for it.
