STKIKK WARS TELL .HOW PKOPLE FEEL When a strike boils over into pitched warfare of the kind seen recently in Miuueupulis antl Toledo, it ceases to be an industrial dispute and conies perilously close to leii. class war. The violence of the current strikes, therefore, gives them n significance far more weighty than that usually in volved in an argument between workers and employers. It is futile, that is, to try to understand these troubles simply by looking at the specific things the strikers are de manding and tho specific things which the employers are willing to give them. Fighting as bad as that which has been seen in these two cities has a deeper reason than any mere disagreement about hours and wages. Something la on the workers' minds something that makes then, angry and rock lens enough to risk policemen's clubs, tear giir, and luttlonnl gunrrtR men's bullets. No mutter how much we way deplore the. result, we should too very foolish ii we did not try hard to find out Just what It Is that Is wrong. It la probable that bnslcnlly the trouble comes from a deep discontent with the way the recovery program Is working out. Wo arc J nut emerging from n period of extreme himtahlp for the working man. All of us have suffered during tho depression, but hardly any of un had quite such a thin time of It m the wage-earner. It has left him with whnt you might call n psyclvio scar that will be a long time healing. Now, -bearing that scar, the worker makes rendy for the new deal and finds that In many case It Is being played with the same old enrds. In the same old way. Pino words about human rights have been said ut Washington, but they haven't been put Into offect. There are still employers who lcok back to Homestead for lentous In tho way to handlo labor troubles. And Washington still postpones the ob of formulating a definite, aud clear-cut labor policy. All this, or course, does not excuse the violence which Is breaking out. It doesn't bring dead men back to life, or make It right to toss bricks at policemen and troopers. But It does help us. to understand why men feel as they do feel. And It Is vital that we get such understanding. To Fort land Miss Helen S.
