BRITISH RESENT

Washington. Seizure by prohibi-

The only report received az pro-

said the Emerald had been taken for
alleged liquor smuggling while In
communication with shore from
point beyond the three mile limit.
The message did not say specifically

was assumed at the prohibition en-
forcement bureau that such was tho
case, however, and that the ship.
therefore, fell within the recent Gov.
ernment ruling as 10 operations be-

The British protest, which was pre-

understood to assert that the Emer-

That the British authorities are
convinced the Emerald case does not
fall within the rule was made plain
by the promptness with which a pro-

reply necessarily awaits an official
report from the Treasury setting out
the facts Of the seizure. Should that
sustain the belief here that the ship
was using her own boats TO shore

THE STRIKES AND THE
COUNTRY

Under the above caption, the
Dearborn Independent, Henry Ford's
weekly newspaper, carried an editor
ial on the railroad and coal strikes
that covered the situation in a plain
and thorough manner and certainly
made interesting reading. The edi-
torial in part follows:
Up to the moment this is written
the country has never seen a menace
of industrial breakdown so incompe-
tently handled by the federal gov
ernment, as are the twin strikes of
the coal miners and the railway men.
Hesitancy and uncertainty, contra
dictory attitudes, have marked every
statement and every move, the admin
istration appearing to be swayed by
any and every advisor that got its
ear. At this writing fuel administra-
tors have been appointed, which can
not be interpreted as anything but a
surrender before a defeat. The Amer
lean people must regard with chagrin
the feeble hands that grope and fun
BILE around the nations helm.
The government itself is 'in
wrong" to begin with. 1t was with
government approval that the railway
workers wages were lowered when it
was absolutely certain that such an
act would precipitate strike and a
tie-up. An agency of the government
undertook to do the dirty work of the
railway owners, to give corpora
ton act the aspect of a government
edict, and now that the strike has
come, there are United States officials
silly enough to say it is a strike
against the government! Committed
to the railway owners side of the
wage disputes, the administration
must back up its folly, or repent
and repentance is about the last thing
to expect in affairs of this kind
And not the administration only,

constitution in accordance with the
provisions thereof"

BREAK UP
OF Equipment is Faced By
Rail Managers
Locomotives Scrapped On
Average of $50 Each Day
Since Strike Began

New York.-The Wall street CLIQUE
that is backing railroad managers like
Atterbury, of the Pennsylvania, and
Loree, of the Delaware and Hudson,
would be defeated in five weeks if
they allowed the strike to continue,
declared John J. Dowd, chairman of
the shop mems strike committee in
this city.
The unionist said his statement is
not a guess, but is based on statistics
prepared by the labor bureau, inc,
economic advisers to the committee.
1t is stated that 5000 locomotives a
week are being laid up and that in
nine weeks half of the $4,000 locomo-
tives in good condition when the strike
was declared, will be on side tracks.
"At the beginning of the strike
there were 10000 locomotives in the
country, "a per cent of which were
in bad order That left $4,000 fit for
service. There are SO federal locomo-
tive inspectors in the country, and
they have been ordering locomotives
out of service on an average of five
day each since the beginning of the
strike. That makes $50 a day or
1900 a week, officially declared unfit
| for service
"The car situation is almost as
serious. Among the recommendation
of the congressional joint commission
of agricultural inquiry, recently pub
| lished, may be found the following:
That the supply of box cars, coal cars,
stock cars and refrigerator cars is in
adequate to meet the demand during
normal periods of activity and should
be rapidly augmented. That the num-
| ber of cars in bad order exceeds all
previous records, and unless bad or
der cars are promptly repaired, the
supply of serviceable cars will be
materially impaired"
The trade unionist's statement con-
cludes with this significant para
graph: "And it takes four years tc
train a skilled railroad mechanic
This shows the chance the railroads
have of beating the strike before il
is too late"

said.
Trade unionists offer this amend
ment to Aliens statement:
"What we need in this country now
more than anything else is feeling
of obligation to the constitution by
executives and law makers. Many OF
these officials are too prone to ignore
fundamental rights in their quest for

inconvenience to which it is put by
reason of the strikes. 1t demands
consideration of its rights. But what
does it do to secure the rights of the
workingmen asks the editor.
"Is it at all concerned that the la
borer receive his just hire, as long
as it enjoys peace and well being?
The object of society is to protect the
rights of all, and to see that no in
justice is done to anyone. If it neg
lects its duty it need not be surprised
that the injured party will try to Sc
cure it's own rights regardless of the
welfare of society.
''If the community at large persist
emily tolerates abuses and wrongs
against ans section of its members,
that section, in seeking relief from
these abuses and wrongs, does not con-
slider the inconvenience of the COM
munity.
.'The public must realize that if la
Dor has duties towards society, society
also has obligations towards labor
The public cannot repudiae its duties
and, nevertheless, insist on its rights.
Unless, therefore, we one and all
unite in supporting the claims of the
worker to fair share of the goods
of life, both material and spiritual,
we ourselves are to blame for the
effects of his resentment for we are
siding with those who refuse him JUS
tiec and fair dealing.
"This side of the problem has been
conveniently overlooked by the pub
lic 1t is time it should awaken to
its grave responsibility"
