Strikes Won and Lost
During Seven Years

Washington, D. C.-Out of 8,O81
strikes on which accurate data is
available from 1916 to 1929 inclusive
employers won 4,237 and employees
3,844, according to the United States
Department of Labor.
From 1916 to 1918 the victories
won by employees were in the major
ity. The pendulum then swung the
other way and during the next four
years employers were credited with
the most "wins." In 1921 employers
won 701 strikes as opposed to 256
victories by the workers.

THE treasury is complacent, but the
Senate is all riled up over the at
titude of British officials toward the
negotiations between France and the
United States for the payment of the
four billion dollar French debt. The
trouble is that reports have gotten
out that the American Debt Funding
Commission is likely to give better
terms to France than those accorded
Great Britain. The new London Gov
ernment, therefore, has served notice
that it will expect from the United
States the same treatment that we
give France in funding her debt. The
negotiations between the United
States and France, however, are in a
state so nebulous that the present in
ternational exchanges are little more
than the blowing off of steam,
though they may develop into some
thing serious.
