Arbitrate!
Br BOOTH TARKINGTON
Of ThmVjgUmmM
In wartime the Mrike In not the rem-
rdy fur profiteering. Publicity end no
tion by the government nre the reme
died for profiteering. Profiteering thnt
Dl burs on a atrlke I. In effect, not hot
ter thnn treason; but a atrlke may It
self be an attempt to "profiteer" and
therefore not better In result than
treason. Kvery sensible person, how
o it. understands that workmen nre
entitled to aa high wage an Ihcy ran '
got without Interfering with the utmost
possible efficiency of Industry engag
ed In the prosecution of the war. A
aiiikf aaea ItAtggafa with uch effi-1
clency. anil therefore mentis a larger
casualty Hat and Increased danger to
the country. That Is to say: If I am a
war Industry workman on strike I am
prolonging the war and adding to the
rlak of America' defeat la the war.
Thla means thnt I cause death and
wound to a certain number of Ameri
can bnyg who would have come home
aafe and sound to their mother If I
hmln't gone on strike. That I the atm
ple truth : and If I am Impeding a war
Industry by going on strike, I might
Juat aa well have torn and tortured the
hodlea of thoae boya myself. The re
aponalblllty la so terrible that no work
man who understands It would taka It, !
eicept to avoid a greater amount of ,
torture and death at home through .
starvation wage.
Arbitration will give him what he
needs and whnt he Justlflnbly wanta. '
The whole country understand that a ,
workman cannot live today on the .
wage of ten years ago. Wages have .
got to advance, of course, aa fne price
of commodities advances: anil th
price of commodltlea advances, of J
course, aa wages advance; though It la
to tbe advantage of tbe workman to i
Itt the price of commodltlea begin to
advance first. But bla wages must
taka account of higher prices, and per
mit him not only life, liberty and the
pursuit of bapplneaa, but allow him
to aava, aa well. That la all that any
man on this earth la entitled tn wheth
er he be garbage man or kalaer : and
It is all that la worth getting: and tbe
Ideal of thla country la that every man
shall have It. Thla Is what w are t
fighting fer: that no man sbnll take
away this right from another wan.
that no man shall make another man
his slave, a the Germans have made
conquered labor their slave and aa
they would make slaves of us If they I
conquered us. ,
Now such Is the temper of our coun-
try that the responsibility for a atrlke
which menus more death, more crip
pling, more blinding, more shot away
faces, for our young men, aona of j
worklngmen and aons of capital!
fighting side by aide and comradea '
"over there," as they will be over here
when they come home the responsi
bility for such a strike Is an Infinitely
heavier tad more dangerous thing
than thoae who rashly assume that re
stMinslhlllty can know, and no decent
humau being could be so selfish snd so
treacherous to his country aa knowlng-
, ly tn bring about such a strike.
And the temper of the country In
thoae daya Is to know causes aa well
aa results. Where the greedlnees of a
profiteer has caused a atrlke, hla money
will not be envied him for he shall not
have It, nor hla I berty either. And It
la unthinkable that American work
men, or workmen who are human
beluga, for that matter It Is unthtnk
able that rhey will strike, even for mere
Justice, without having to the last ut
most atom of their energy pressed for
settlement by arbitration
The syndicate service, founded by
Bntanel (lomiiers and representing tbe
point of view of the American Federa
tion of labor, reports an addreea by
i Moaaee. president of the Pat
tern linkers' Union of ('.rent Hrltaln.
naaeaj was speaking In the Ijibor
Temple In San I Re seld:
" were requested to uhrogiltg our
working rulea and agreement . . .
lo give up everything thnt tended to re
strict output. . . . Being staged
thnt it. is on necea-u ire ile
aired to tee the entire world sin
ed bj Herman autocracy, we roomo
In. luted thnt our unions Hiibiiilt to the
request muile by the
. . . This meant that there was tu
beno stoppage of work during the war.
It meant the acceptance of compulxon
arbitration . . . We have seem , fj
better results through arbitration than
by resorting to the strike, which ehotihl
be used aa a last reeort after all else
has failed If th's Is done, the strike
weapon will rest In its scabbard."
And Mr Mossi said another thing
worth thinking about. "Today labor In
Greet! Britain Is more prosperous
than ever before In its history. . . .
Our Inducer- la greater than oyer lie
tore aad e ir worker are enjoying
wealth beyond ihe dream of avarice.'
Not osyly at arbitration neceaaary,
but It pays!
