BY JACK JUNGMEYER, N. E. A, Staff Correspondent. Seattle, Wash—Every wise Ameri- can, from the capitol to the worker in| the humblest home, is today trying to] Sum up the cost, the import and the es- sence of the “Seattle Affair,” and the course of democracy in this country | may depend upon how well that sum 4s_caiculated. For in the five-day so-called sym-| pathetic strike that bound Seattle with its infectious possibilities were fused all the creeds that propose the overthrow of the present system and government inthe United States. This is a statement of fact, amply suported.

Within a few hours after the 70,-000 organized workmen of Seattle had ceased work, this became apparent. lers of the Bolshevikist school eded in inflaming a considerable proportion of the strikers with the proposal that, after all private enter- price had been perforce shut down, the workers themselves take over and operate all essential industries per- manently. >The general strike as exemplified in Seattle is in no wise like any sim- ple craft strike. The general strike, it was shown, not alone hits at employers and busi- jness and institutions, but if effective must suspend all the essentials of life, health and safety in the com- munity where applied. Radicals in Seattle openly admitted this ,and all it implied and it was only a matter of tactics in winning over {the more conservative element that water, light and power, fire protec- tion, sewage and garoage, telephones. and the whole life stream of a city of 400,000 was not ordered entirely cut off by the strikers for an indefinite period.

The so-called “sympathetic strike,” launched on the plea that it was to iforce action from the emergency fleet corporation in behalf of the already striking shipyard workers of Puget Sound was not in any sense spontan- eous. Tt was engineered by a radical, in- j terested minority, who understood the psychology of mass infection and plausible slogans. A “class issue,” they called it. By adroitly, playing their own game, the metal trades, numbering some 30,4 000,- succeeded in getting perhaps‘ 40: | 000 other unionists to help’‘them witr their own contest. The lowest paid were called out: £0 help the highest paid—chambermaids to help. artisans. The .Bolsheylk clement openly sought to direct the mass toward rev- olution. Victimized by Radicals, Majority Today Admit. “Sympathy. had been gained by | bludgeon methods. Today. the great majority of the strikers, sobered to recognition that they gained nothing through the get- eral strike they did not already have, |admit they were misled and victimized by a@ sophisticated coterie of radicals. Seatle never had disputed the ‘soll- darity of labor” that the leaders made a catchword. Seattle employers were making no effort or plans to disrupt unionism. Even the shipyard workers’ wage demand was in dispute between the workers and Charles Piez of the gov- ernment fleet corporation, nog the lo- cal ship plant owners. This was a grim, anti-American and anti-Federation-of-Labor adventure, cloaked in another semblance by a juggling with words; a wedge which, had it not been broken off by the co- operation of city and federal govern- ment, would iaave driven straight at the heart of American. institutions and the present system. It was not a strike of violence. There were no surface disorders. No strikebreakers were here. It was a new kind of terrorism, the terrorism .of a tension alive with nameless fears, unlike that of earth- quake, mob clash or disaster—a brand new experience for an American city. Leaders Whine When Victims Strike Back. ; There was about the a ;deal of the childish as grim, Strike leaders who expected the city to wait supinely until they had sheathed their greatest weapon, short of bloody insurrection, whined lugu- briously when those whom the strike was designed to hurt and intimidate took counter measures of protection. They decried the use of extra police patrols and the proffer of the govern- ment for military assistance if needed. They cursed the Seattle Star for daring to publish its newspaper with its own union employes, and giving the city, as a public utility, the news and co-ordination of agencies tbat pre- i vented panic. The leaders bungled their own game at the last in an attempt to “save j face” with labor. They ordered unions already return- ed to work to go out again for one more day, but they were openly dis-| credited by the refusal of these union men to heed the edict. The city that had at first been im- pressed, was now simply bored. — It ‘air a good ell as the place of the bolshevist leaders in the scheme. These things, coupled with the suf- ferings and losses to strikers and merchants’ and the general pablic alike, with no compensatory gains, form Seattle’s answer to other, cities who are have been like in our town, thi eral strike?” ; And it is a question. which Ameri- cans who had their gen- delivers, .each ,speech. in French. had gained a perspective, seeing the|- *TWAS A REAL RAG TIME JUBILEB;:...
