(Copyright, 1:121, by Kdgar A. Guest.) CAN A RAILROAD STRIKE SUCCEED ? THERE are two sides to the railroad strike situation and the facts supporting the contention of each side have been fairly well presented. This is not an attempt to discuss the merits or faults of the strike order. But another question of much fascination pertains to what will happen if the strike takes place. Can the employes win the fctrlke and thereby attain what they want or will they lose out and suffer accordingly? Perhaps no one knows. "Ymj must do the sum to prove it" ia the slogan that will apply. But there are many people who minK iney are impartial observers M ho feel that should they oiiikb me men win dc undertaking a very Hard task and will find its accomplishment impossible. To begin with, the whole nation will be inconvenienced or distressed if the strike comes. That moans something like 110 million people will suffer through a walkout by less than two per cent of the population. Now it is hard for two per cent of the population to put the other !)8 per cent in the hole and get nway with it. Particularly will this be so when the power of the federal government will be exercised in the diiection of keeping trains moving and when millions of people, who have taKen losses in one way or another, feel that railroad rates nhoulcl come down and that they cannot come down unless rail road wages are reduced. Then there are other factors that will enter into the situation. One of these has been discussed in n Chicago -story to the New x'ork World by John Grunau. The World's story 'is here given f of what it may be worth : CHICAtiti, Oct. 1(1. Will (lie so-called outlaw organization help to defeat the Kreat Strike planned by the railroad linillierhooils? The 00,000 men who went on a strike In April, IH2II, In Chicago, ('lo.cl.iiid, Ht. Louis, Jersey City, liiiffalo ami oilier major lerinlnal points, fcro planning notion outside the ultimatum of the brothel hoods. John c.iunnu is still -i pciver with his American Employees' Association, the new organization which has Ri'own out of the Yardman's Association. This organization Includes trnin.-ien, engineers, firemen, freight conductors, switchmen and hud a inenibei ship es timated at 00,0011 , W. W. I.ee, chief of the trainmen, used all the power of the brotherhoods to destroy them and failed. Many returned to work when wages weie advanced in July, 1920, retrooactlve to May . Many thousands have not returned. They lost their seniority rights, their pensions and other peninialtcs. Srunuu, former Nt. Paul yardniaster ami chief uf the "outlaws." said to night: ,-I sent out u circular to the whole meinlienhlii a week ago. Yon must un derstand that only about 20 per cent of the 611,11011 that went on the strike re turned to work. The rest were kept out by I.ee and I he brut licrhooils. I '.old them in Die circular not to take tho pla.es of sinkers, bull 11111 In doubt Whether I ran hold the poof devils who are out of Jobs. "They are expert trainmen and buttling with revenge Tor the way they have been treated. The bread has bene taken out of their mouths and their families have mirrored. I could not blame t;iem If they went to work. I told them K they did they would bo going back ill the same wage we (.truck to in crease, but that the working con, lit ions were better. "I don't think the blot hcrlmotls have a chance to w in. They cannot con trol their own men. Thirty to forty per cent of the men arc getting on In years uild they will not go on a strike that will cause tiieni to forfeit all the good records, seniorities and pension provisions that are theirs. Tho hrolhoihonds cannot win. There never has been a winning railroad strike. "They were defeated In ISIT, when fifty men were killed in Chicago and I'ltlshurB, and the troops were called out . Martin Irons lost the big strike of 18S on the (iotild system with tho Knights of lihor. Mote than 100 men were killed In Ihat strike. "The engineers lost a strike against the Hurllngton the same year because or tho fight l'n ul Morton, then a vice president of that system, put up. "Iehs anil the American Hallway Villon lost Hie big strike in ISlll, when many million dollars' worth of property was destroyed here in Chicago and other points. The conditions under which this strike, is called are I ho worst lor the men and the best for the railroads. "I estimate that there are now ;,ini 01m men, wlio Have considerable knowl edge of railroad work, out. of employment. There wcie 11 1 most that many laid eft hi the last year. Tho jnelude almost all departments of the service. "Of course these men belong or did belong to jrloiis unions. ltut the Wing Is in the fact that when wages were increased railroad business fell off and they were out of jobs with no wages at all:. I doubt whether the broth erhood chiefs can hold these men back from jobs that will give them a living. They hae neither Jobs nor living now." t That naturally sounds bad from Hie strikers' standpoint, though, perhaps, this man's views are subject to discount be muse ot his quarrel with the brotherhoods. Hut it does seem dear that the brotherhoods are in a poor strategic position. It' they cannot improve that position materially they should call off the strike. 11 is no disgrace to retreat when the facts call lor such tactics. At least General Washington thought as much and he won a long war by knowing bow and when to take his army to the rear. I L 0?S"S"J- I I'M K."D OP" I ,Vr.M'M"V 1 .wtrmvtNi BttN TIRED - I HD .
