HOW MUCH DO STRIKES
COST THE NATION?

Washington, July 6-(Capital News
Seryice) Statistics issued by the De-
nartmpnt of Labor show that strikes
in this country average more than
$500 per year. 1t is not cOntended by
the department that its figures are ac-
curate, since they depend upon news,
paper and trade paper reports for the
most part but that they are under
rather than 0verStatements.
1t is impossible truthfully to est
mate the average cost Of a strike, since
they vary 50 in duration, number OF
workmcn affected and economic loss
through whatever industry is wholly
or partially shut down. But if the
most conservative possible estimate DC
adopted, and it is considered that the
average strike affects 100 WOrkmen
and that the average strike lasts 70
days, the total arrived at is 100000
working days lost per year. If the
average cost to each workman is $:
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 $GG.000.000 q
year
II is not believed that these figures
are anything hut suggestive. The
average strike undoubtedly affects
thousands, rather than hundreds, and
for many more than ten days; a few
union lah0rcrS receive as little as $:
a day. and. Of course, the industry
affected suffers out Of all proportion
to the wOrkmcn
But, it is pointed out at the Capitol
if it were true that only $66,0OO,M
were wasted by strikes every year
that $66,O0O00O spent in proper chan
nels on arbitration would undoubtedly
stop most if not all the strikes
1t might be an economic measure TO
spend part of it for accurate sta
tiStics of strike costs t. the country; a
little education on what it really costs
to stop work might make people less
willing to indulge in, or cause, strikes

orders of their customers and yet Car
pender Caffry & Co. were taking from
the customers of Clarkson q Co. through
the firm Of Clarkson & Co. large sums
of money by way of commissions and
interest.
Nothing that Mr.. Caffry or any one
else says will stop US from showing in
the Dier case that certain members OF
the New York Stock Exchange and Of
the Consolidated Stock Exchange and
Of the New York Curb were engaged in
improper practices with houses that
were engaged in purposely nullifying
orders of their customers. And in this
| am sure that we will have the whole
hearted support OF the New York Stock
Exchange and Of the Consolidated Stock
Exchange and OF the District Attorney.
Mr.. Banton.
"In our opinion, Stock Exchange
houses and New York Consolidated
stock Exchange houses and New York
Curb houses who knowingly assist
bucket shops in multiplying the orders
OF their customers are just as guilty,
legally and morally, as the operators
of bucket shops.
The only interest that the receiver
and Mr.. Hays and I have in the Car
pender Caffry & Co. situation Is TO
obtain for the creditors of Dier g. Co.,
from any and al sources, all moneys

ION Monday, May !, i received a tele-

sociate i'm this case, who stated that
Joseph Spencer. an attorney, had called
him up on behalf Of Carpenter. Caffry x
Co. and had asked for an adjournment
for q week. told Mr.. Hays what had
transpired as above outlined and further
told him that I did not think there
should pc any further delay in this mat
ter. We then agreed to leave the matter
TO the receiver and to the referee.
"a few minutes before the hearing
was called at o'clock on Tuesday. May
2. Nash lockwood, attorney for DER.
conferred with the receiver, Mr.. Hays
and myself and asked US how much we
would take 10 settle the claims of the
estate against Carpender, Caffry & Co.
Mr. Enrich finally suggested the sum
of 1000. When the hearing was
called at o'clock Mr.. Spencer requested
an adjournment and there was considz
erable discussion in the hall outside OF
the referees office.
THE receiver and Mr.. Spencer finally
agreed upon an Adjournment to Friday
the 5th so as to give Carpenter, Caf-
fry & Co. a chance to think the matter
over and decide what they wanted TO
do. The arrangement however, was
granted upon the express condition that
in the interim Carpender Caffry q co.
would allow the receivers accountants
an unrestricted examination OF their
books. to check up those entries with
entries in the books of Dier. The next
morning Mr.. Spencer refused to allow
the accountants to go on the BOOKS
consequently when the nearing was
resumed on the 5th, the examination
was proceeded with.

have been obliged TO turn back to the

Domination
of the Mind

"HE power and insidious danger
of British propaganda in the
United States are strikingly
shown in the Encyclopedias Britain
MICA, perhaps Britain's greatest
propaganda agency here.
Compare, for example, its
sketches of the life of Arthur
James Balfour, British plenipoten-
tiary to the United States, and New
ton D. Baker, Secretary of War.
Baker receives two hundred
words, Balfou- two thousand.
Baker is denounced for having
tried to keep the United States out
Of the, war until we had a real
American cause for entering.
He is criticised for having rec
commended moderation towards con-
scientious objectors and forbidden
men in. uniform to interfere with
anti-conscription meetings" -,
He is charged with having been
lacking in energy, foresight and
ability" and is censured for his
Failure to prepare adequately in
the months preceding the American
declaration of war;"
The Encyclopedia Britannica has
many good features, but its bias is
unmistakable. No American going
to it for information upon an inter
national controversy or an inter
national figure with which Great
Britain is involved can hope to get
a disinterested view.
The worst kind of domination is
domination of the mind. The En-
cyclopedia Britannica's bias should
be kept carefully in memory.
