The average industrial dispute in this country, if it reaches the Htatre Of open warfare, passes lliroujrh three iihases. l-'irst, there is the period in which hoth sides hurl defiance and call on heaven and earth to witness that they are com pletely and everlastingly in the right. Next conies the time of outright hostilities. The workers lay down their tools and walk out or they are locked out ly the bosses; picket lines form at the gates, strikebreakers come to work with varying mixtures of sheepishness and de fiance; heads get laid open, tear gas bombs are thrown, win dows are broken and the usual bloody and tumultuous pro cedure, costly to everyone involved, is followed. Then, last of all, comes the settlement. Unless one side or the other wins a clearcut victory, the general staffs of the two sides gel together, neutrals are called in. and the whole dispute is put up to arbitration. In the end the arbit ration committee hands down its decision, the contending parties accept it with cheers or with scowls, work is re sumed again antl one more industrial muss-up is over. ' It makes n rather dreary and discouraging routine. It is horribly expensive; the owner loses fat orders, frequently has property damage to pay for; tha Workers- lose wages, and in many cases get clubbed and punched as well; the general public suffers inconvenience, lias to pay for extra inflict; work and in varying ways pluys liio unhappy role of the innocent bystander. 1 And it all leads one to Wonder why, since the average dispute winds np in arbitration anyway, can't arbitration bo resorted to in the first place to save all this trouble? The answer, probably, is that to bo stubborn and opinionated is a very ancient human trait which has not, to date, shown many signs of disappearing. ' Arbitration can hardly bo forced on the contending parties not without revising our whole political and economic fi'aiuework more than most of us are prepared to do at this time. Hut the stern logic of hard facts points directly to ward it. Unless victory for one side or the other is speedily gained, it usually comes in the end. Can't owners and work ers see that everybody concerned would be ahead if it came right at the beginning? Paul Von Hindenbiirg. (he "grand' old man", warrior and statesman of Germany is dead. As expected, Hitler grabs the presidency. Von Hindenbiirg will still be revered and hold lasting memory in the hearts, of the German people long aftei' Hitler is forgotten. Hitler continues on the ascen dency in Germany now only by strategy and force. Close political observers see his rule and hold on the German people actually on the decline.
