Passengers In Scab-Run
Trains Endanger Lives;
Recall MalbOne Tragedy

Passengers riding in trains oper-
ated by scabs are not merely aid
ing the transit officials to break
the traction workers strike but
are risking their lives.
City officials, against their will,
were forced to make plans yester-
day to supplement the scab-oper-
ated transit lines in the event of
a strike, with bus systems and spe-
cial railroad schedules, even going
so far as to outline ferryboat
routes to convey office workers
from lower Manhattan to the
Bronx.
Fearful of the repetition of the
Malbone street disaster, in which
scores of people were killed and
injured when a BIN. T. local train,
run by a scab motorman and scab
conductors, raced around the NAL
bone street loop in Brooklyn into
the rear of another scab-operated
train, resulting in many deaths and
serious injuries, the heads of the
Department of Plans and Struc-
lures and the Board of Transporta-
tion hastily called a conference
yesterday on the strike situation.
1t was only when pressure was
exerted by politicians who are
afraid Of losing their jobs through
a new Malbone street disaster, that
the plans for supplementary tran
sit service were drawn up, since
representatives of the traction trust
realized that the travelling public
would not trust the unskilled
blacklegs, and would avail itself of
any other means Of transporta-
ton. The resulting loss to the
companies, it was intimated, would
hasten a victory for the regular
union.

FATTED FOR WAR
WITH union MEN
Blacklegs Hide Faces
From Camera
By SYLVAN A. POLLACK.

The |. R. t. is preparing for
war. Their 147th st. and Sew
enth Ave. terminal has been
turned into a barracks into
which scabs are constantly pour
ing from many eastern cities to
replace the workers who will go
on strike.
Furnished by half a dozen labor
agencies the strikebreakers are being
taken to the barracks where they
are kept virtual prisoners, since any
attempt on their part to leave the
building results in immediate dis
missal.
When the writerin company with
reporters of the capitalist press was
conducted through the building last
night by j. S. Doyle, assistant gen
eral manager of the Interborough,
Doyle constantly tried to impress
upon the newspaper men that the un-
employed army in America is large
and therefore the strike will be
broken.
'Scabs Are Plentiful"
'We can get all the men we want"
he asserted "In fact, more than we
can use. There has been such a sur
plus of labor since the end of the
war. Why, the work of running
trains is not difficult. Women can
do it as well as men," Turning to
the women reporters he said this with
a smile,
When the capitalist press photo
graphers began taking pictures, the
scabs in most cases hid their faces.
They evidently are ashamed of the
despicable methods by which they
will earn a living for the next week
or so.
The scabs consist of men of almost
every nationality with the exception
of Negroes. Of the 800 to 900 strike
breakers at the barns not one colored
man was present. The blacklegs are
constantly guarded by metropolitan
police and special company detec-
tives, many of whom are inside the
building.
