Whrit these lailueei ol many of tht carrier to abide hy decision of tht hoard were brought lo rov attention I rnuld mora flirty apprai.a the feel ing of Hi strikers, thoughr they aj a remedy without seeking to paralyse intmute commrrcc. Inadequate. The h creating tha railroad b6ard U Inadequate. Contrary to popular impresin, it has little or no power to cuforra i deciions. It ran impose no penalties on cither party ditrrgarduig ill decisions. It cannot halt a atrike. and manifestly congree deliberately omitted tha enactment of compulsory arhitratlon. The decuion of the board mint ha made enforceable and effective against rarrieri and employe alike, J'.nt the law ia new and no perfection of it by congress at this moment could be helpful in tha preterit threatened paralysis of traiupurta lion. . Happily it it always lawful and oft time r.oiuMe to ettle diiputei out side of court; to, in a detire to serve public welfare, I venture upon an attempt at mediation, Thoe who had preceded me in attempted settle ment had made some prog rem. I submitted to the official of the strik ing employes and the chairman of the Ai'nrialion of Railway Kxecutivcs, in writing, on the same day, a tentative proposal for settlement. Knowing that some of the carriers had offended by ignoring the decisions of the board, and the employes had struck , when they had a remedy without the Strike, I frit it was best to start all over again, return work with all agreeing to abide faithfully by the board's decisions, thus to make it a real tribunal of peace In transporta tion, ' Qaestlon of Seniority, The barrier to be surmounted was the question of seniority. Ky the workmen these rights are held to be sacred, and unsurrendered by a strike. ,Hy the carriera the preservation of seniority is the weapon of discipline on the one hand and the reward of faithful employes on the other. It has been an almost invariable rule that when strikes have been lost seniority and its advantages have been surrendered; when strikes have been tdtjed seniority has been re stored. In the tentative proposals which I sponsored it was provided that every body should go to work with senior ity right unimpaired, that there should be no discrimination by either workmen or carrier! against work men who did or did not strike, I realized that the proposal must carry a disappointment to employes who had inherited promotion by staying loyally on the job and to auch new men as had sought jobs looking to . permanent employment J but I, want ed the fresh start and maintained transportation' service and I ' ap praised the disappointment of " the few to be less important than the Im pending misfortune to the, nation. It was not what I would ask ordinarily to be considered or conceded, hut at that moment of great anxiety, with the coal shortage gravely menacing, I was thinking of the pressing demands of tha welfare of the whole people. I believed the aacrifice brought to the men involved could be amply com pensated for by the carrier in prac tical ways. Of Tranacendent Importance, I believed the matter of tran scendent importance was the ac ceptance of the proposal-to respect the labor board' decisions on the questions which formed the issurf at the time of the strike. The public compensation would he complete in guarding by law against recurrence. The proposal was rejeected by the carriers.''' Though the rejection did not end all .negotiation, it left the government only one course to call the striking workmen to return t to . work, to call the carriers to assign them to work, and leave the dispute about seniority to the labor board for decision. When negotiations or tiiej.stiu" fails, this is the course con temlatrd by the Uw and the jovet n mtnt tn have no chart for its twtir.e except the law. Favorable Response. To tins call a majority of the car riers responded favorably, proposing to re-employ all strikers except those guilty of violence a&aimt workmen or property, to restore the striking workmen to their bid positions where vacant, or to like positions where va cancies were filled; question of seniority which cannot be settled be tween the employer and the em ployes to jo to the labor board for decision. The minority of the car riers proposed to assign job to workmen on strike only where the po.itiu'is were vacant. Neither pro poal has hern accepted. Ihus the narrative bring us to the present moment, but it has not included the developments which have heighten ed the government' concern. Sym pathetic strikes have developed here and there, eriouly impairing inter state commerce. Deserted trains, continental trains in the di.crt region of tht soulhwut have revealed the cruelty and con tempt (or law on the part of some railway employes ho have con spired to paralyre transportation; and lawlessness and violent in a hundred ' place have revealed the We Deliver to Any Part of the City mm gra VTT1 ITTTmol teOOOAtr T ' TM : a r r c r a m T71 -TfLl - 4 Phone DO uglas 3940 The Home of Better, Bigger Values in Quality Foodstuff ' DELICIOUS, APPETIZING MEATS At Lowest in the City Prices Wt have received a large shipment of extra fancy spring Iambi which we are going to place on sale, epedal for Saturday, at a rery unusually low price.
