INDUSTRIAL WARFARE OUT OF DATE
i.i-
t :
From January 1 to December 31, 1921, there was a
yearly average of 3343 called strikes, according to statistics
prepared by the United States Department of Labor. This
is approximately eleven for each working day. And the rec
ord' shows productive energy that was wasted,! wages not
yearned, lost production, lost wealth and lost strikes. The
l wages lost to the members of labor unions in these six years
-'would have purchased, the larger part of the Liberty bonds
now selling at par. .... , , J
That represents a fearful loss from this form of war
fare; for it is as much war as war by armed forces
' It is Industrial war. ;
;' ,v JUid It js high time that the United States had a Railroad
Labor Board, established by a law of Congre3s-and in this
law should have' been left the anti-strike clause,; which was
stricken out of the bill O . .' -i , " :
? - And it is high time that states and communities and all
the forces, of law. and order,, and all individuals with high
principles of right and justicemoved for industrial peace
. ( For war upon industrial war. J . . . . I ,
' , Industrial war is aS 'senseless as war with guns and . poi
son gas and all the . implements of death used in military op
erations ; V - ; ?
And, what is more, it is out pf date. It is beginning to
be made tabu by the forces that have upheld the principles
of the strike and. the methods of strikers in the past. -.;,

labor's most celebrated member of Parliament, is iri point
And It has caused a most decided sensation among the
"trades unions of England and conveys a trenchant message
. to the rank and file of the trades unions of this country.
After reviewing the course of events in various labor dis
putes 'since the armistice, solely for the good of their own
. organizations, ; these once radical I labor leaders haye con
; demned the strike as an offensive weapon in the hands of
the workers. Said Mr. Gosling in addressing a conference of
the National Transport Workers at Cardiff a few days ago:
, "We are fully convinced that present day condi
- ; tlons make it impossible for us to win through strike
ri v : action; f The ballot" box must be the -weapon of the
I -workers of today." J ' '"v.
England was the first country to organize trade unions
the first country to employ the strike weapon, and is the

workers themselves the strike is a failure, common" sense
! would suge3t its discontinuance in a country like the United
, States, where the percentage of the whole body of labor that
Is unionized is much smaller; and there are evidences the
world over that workers are putting on their thinking caps

And slowly but surely 1 the light of reason Is breaking
through.

must always finally triumph over destruction. 'The laborer
is worthy of his hire." That principle is imbedded in the gtatiaUcg concerning tbe moYe-

inent of humanity at . different
points in the city Members of
tbe commission find, for instance,
that during an 11-honr day 187,
0S1 pedestrians flow through the
Intersections at Seventh, and
Broadway. In the. same time
2522 street cars flit. by. bearing
the staggering total of 97,486
passengers. But the pedestrians
are still in tbe majority. .During
the. 11 hours 13,468 automobiles
pars this Intersection, containing
21,116 persons. An automobile
may take up almost as much
room and cause as much confu
sion as a street car and yet it
carries an average of less than
two persons. There is a lot of
waited efficiency in automobile
traffic. Counting tbe cost per
passenger for a traffic mile, it
is the most expensive mode of
travel tbe world extensively uses.
Most of the congestion and all
the traffic excitement at Seventh
and Broadway cornea from the
procession of automobiles and
yet they carry less than 9. per
cent of the human traffic flow
ing through those arteries. This
being the case, any program" for
stimulating or bettering traffic

Tbe proportion of pedestrians
is likely larger in most cities than
it is in Los Angeles, because tbe
number of automobiles . owned
there, in proportion to the pop
ulation, is higher than in any

eays the Pacific ocean will take

next 20 years. That will mean

development . greater than the
world has yet witnessed.!'.
TRAFFIC TROUBLES
- A?thugh one might imagine
that all the people in the world
were passing down Broadway in
motor cars, this seems not to be
the fact. Pedestrians are still In'
the majority. Not only that, bnt
the street cars are still: moving

Where the Oregon Growers
Cooperative association handled
7.500,000 pounds of prunes In
1921-22. It win this year handle
close to 30.000.000 pounds, oi
four times as many as in Its big
gest year before this.
Tbe association has 132 dryer
tunnels under its direct control,
tbat it will operate. ; These will
handle about 10 tons per tunnel
for tbe season, or a total of about
2,600.000 pounds. It will be
seen that this is only a very small
part of the association produc
tion. Tbe rest of the product
comes from private dryers, under
contract to the Growers as the
sales and packing agency.
TKiw to 1; Equipped
Three of these association dry
ers, tnose at sceridan, Dallas ana
Deever, are to be equipped with
Sturtevant circulating fans for
faster, more efficient evaporation.
It is estimated that these will in
crease the capacity of the plants
about 50 per cent. At a meeting
of the dried fruit committee of
the Growers Thursday night, the
purchase of these machines was
authorized. They will cost a lit
tle more than $700 eacb. Tbey
require about 15 horsepower to
run them, and they give the air
current through the trays of 700
lineal feet per minute. The asso
ciation wishes to give them a good
try-out before going deeper into
the purchase.
Little Damage Done
The dry weather seems to have
damaged only a tew of the prunes
though it is said that some shal
low soils are now beginning to
show some effect of the drought.
The July and August drop has
not yet sufficiently thinned the
orchards. If something would
only take off a few more of the
teeming fruits, sorted out so they
would fTthe most good, it would
be a boon to the growers. In
general, the orchards that have
been cultivated little or none at
all for the past two years, show
the drought effect.. Orchards

so that they took in and held the
rains of winter, amd then It was
held in by cultivation this spring,

cultivation easily takes the place
of summer rainfall. In most cases.
Example Is Cited
An interesting example of this
effect of cultivation was reported
by one observer from near Salem.
