THE PUBLIC BE DAMNED.
AJniOl'Gir the raili-oml Iii-oIIiitIiuoiI lenders. .declare the strike
is on, it is still difficult to lielicve it will actually come to pass.
Not a single Ki'eivnncc which would in the public mind, justify a
walk out, has licen offered by the brotherhood chiefs. - j
True, the iiiilrmuls have disregarded simit' of the labor boards'
reciiiiiineiidaliojis. The attitude of maiiy of the railroad presidents j
has been hard boiled, lint in ordering strike, without submitting
their trrievanee to the arbitral ion of the labor board, the labor U-ad-i
rs have also flouted the law. and their brazen disregard of the public
welfare, is not only hard boiled, but ease hardened. j
Hy Warren S. Stone's own statement, the fact is admitted that j
the strike would not have been ordi red if the railroad executives had j
lot threatened to ask for a further redueti.:n in wafres. In other
words the brotherhood chiefs admit tliry are thruwiiif; the entire in
duslrial system into confusion, .not because they ure suffering uny
hardship now, but been use they may suffer it in the future.
The threat referred to. had not even been presented to the labor!
board. Xo decision could he expected in many months, and there is
no more reason to believe the petition would have been granted than
it wouldn't be. The whole matter, deserved no more consideration,
than so much village gossip. But apparently because they saw some
.'elfish advantage accruing, they seized upon this flimsy pretext to
order a general w alk out.
And now the childish plea is presented that, while the compromise
suggested by the labor board is acceptable, .sonic rule of the brother
hood prevents n postponement of the strike order! "Which is to say,
that the by laws of some labor union, take precedence over the laws
and the Welfare of this country!
The people have been very patient with labor union dictation, but
this sort of thing will bring their patience to the breaking point. Xo
general walk-out can succeed without tho support of public opinion,
r.nd this proposed walk out, if it comes, will have virtually no public
support.
We can't believe the brotherhood chiefs are so stupid as not to
realize this. And that is the prime reason we hold to the belief there
will be no general railroad strike, in spite of today's discouraging
developments.
