Fiasco OFFICE CAT TDAUC MANM BY JUNIUS ' It is time that the general public should understand something of the I. W. W. strike which is now on. At first the spectacular features of the strike interested a great many and no one heeded the demands madefy the men in their printed circular. Analysis of those demands shows that they are asking some things thoroughly impossible for lumber manufacturers to give, one of which is the release of war prisoners. It is the sheerest folly to think that western employers can release prisoners who were convicted of disloyalty during war times, and there is no good reason to believe that western people want the prisoners released. President Harding has gone deeply into tiie merits of these cases and has released a number, including the arch-socialist, Eugene V. fDcbs. What more clemency could be expected 1 The point of interest to La Grande and all Eastern Oregon is the attitude being displayed in attempting to induce others than the I. W. W. to qtiitu work. In this there has been some success made by the strikers and the fear of being labelled 'a "scab" or of being punished in some way tor continuing at work is the one great i i principle which Oregon as a state must meet and meet squaiely. Every I. W. W. member has a right to quit work.' This cannot be denied. But no I. W. W. member has a right to force other men to cease working when in their hearts those other men desire to continue on their jobs. Plainly stated, there should be and must be proper protection for men who want lo work, and there should be no punishment at tempted on the I. W. VV. members who do not want to work. It is their personal privilege to lay down their tools and quit their jobs, but it is not their privilege to plead with others, resort to coersion mi intimidation to make other men' follow them in their chosen idleness. ; MV l.lltl, TJiIh if my Kli'l.

Greater ad-i',1' vancenient might be possible but so lung as there is increase the! movement is in the right direction. . .! When not membership but constituency is considered the fig ures are swelled greatly. Constituency includes those with inelii-.-ntions towaid some religious organization but not actively or form ally connected. Such may not be recognizable in their daily prac tice but who in the supreme test turn toward a particular cimi lhunion. The constituency in fact is equal to the formal inei'i7. Iiership. The damage dune by the World War to the moral sensibilities of men seems thus in process of being repaired, l'ossibly the most untoward feature of the situation lies in that actual membership does not denote active, persistent interest in the furtherance of the church. A percentage at least is passive and only incidentally concerned for the woi Ill's regeneration.
