Ae BEE ‘New York, Oct. 24.—Five times; be- fore has this country faced a real or threatened railroad strike. These were: 1. Strike of 1877. 2. Pullman strike of 1894. 3. Threatened strike for eight- hour day, 1916 and 1917. 4. Strike of railroad shopmen and ae demand for increased wages, 9. 5. “Outlaw” strike of ‘railroad switchmen, 1920. : Strike in 1877 Riot accompanied ‘the railroad strike of 1877. It began on the Balti- more & Ohio road, when the men’s wages were reduced 10 per cent. It spread through ,the Pennsylvania eouenn and then throughout the coun- ry. ‘When the Pennsylvania state mil- itia refused to fire on the assembled strikers, national troops were called out to suppress ‘the rioting.

But on promise of President Wil- son of a slight increase in pay and his request for delay until the coun- try could come back to normal, the men gradually returned to work. Switchmen’s Strike On April 2, 1920, against the or- ders of the brotherhood officials, 6,000 switchmen in the Chicago yards walked out. They were dissatisfied with the way the{ government de- layed fulfilling its promise to help the men by reducing the cost of liv- ing or bringing about some sort of relief. They wanted a higher wage. The brotherhood officials immediate- ly “outlawed” these strikes. But the strike spread throughout the country. The strike cased a temporary partial tieup in transportation, but the railroad brotherhoods were soon able to get the trains running regu- larly through the aid of their loyal employes. The “outlawed” strikers sought reinstatement, ;but this was amounted to $2,000,000, while Pitts- burg suffered a loss in business and property damage of $5,000,000. The strike, however, was unsuc- cessful and it died out a month after it had ‘started. In 1888 there was a strike of the men on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad, ‘which soon ended in the creation of a railroad ‘board of arbitration. Pullman Strike The Pullman strike of 1894 began with a walkout on May 11 of the Pull- man employes when their wages were reduced an average of 25 per cent. The American Railroad Union, an organization outside the big four brotherhoods, also called out its mem- bers and a general strike of railway workers began on June 26, 1894. The estimated loss ‘to the country at large as a result of this walkout was said to reach $80,000,000. Troops wets sent to Chicago to maintain or- der. This strike“ ended with the* indict- ment of. Bugeié V. Debs and other leaders for contempt of court in re- fusing to obey the injunction against striking. —2/ : r Eight-Hour Fight There Wére a few. scattered local strikes after that but none came up to the proportions of the difficulty that arose between the government and the railroad men in 1916 and 1917. opt oy A request for an eight-hour day and time and a half overtime caused the intervention of President Wil- son, who suggested that the railroads grant the eight-hour day, without extra overtime. Although the broth- erhoods favored the proposat the rail- way officials rejected it and a nation- al strike was ¢all for Sept. 4. By Sept. 2, Congress passed the Adamson eight-hour law, which tem- porarily averted the strike. But the federa district court of Kansas: de- clared the law unconstitutional. Af- ter contjnued controversy the rail- oad brotherhoods again called a strike to begin March 17, 1917. The government intervened again and was able to hold up the strike awo days until the federal supreme court declared the Adamson law con- stitutional. and the. eight-hour law went into effect. Shopmen’s Strike The strike-of 1919 was over the question of Wkge increase, to con- form with the rising cost of living. On Aug..1, Chicago's railroad shop- men walked out and were later fol- lowed by the men in New York and Boston, About, 135,000. men stopped BR 8. ENGR D.C.

This provision, commonly known as the “anti-strike clause.” was bitterly fought by organized labor. It was re- jected. in the house and eliminated in the conference agreement on the bill. “There will be no emergoncy leg- islation attempted to meet the pres- ent situation,’ Cummins sai “But if the strike does come, it seems cer- tain that there must later be some changes in the law that would pre- vent such a recurrence, Provisions Struck Out “at present there is no penalizing provision in the law to give force to the rulings of the Railroad.

Lawyers differ as to whether its decisions can be enforced by in- junction. “Already at least two noads have refused to obey its orders. and have been cited to explain why. “Now the employes refuse to abide by its-decisions and threaten. to strike. “If the strike comes, of course the railroads will attempt to find substi- tute help With which to operate, and it will be the duty of the government to use all its power to sec that they are not interfered with. fi “If the railroads then find they are unable to operate on a sufficiently ef- ficient basis to transport the neces- sary food, clothing and fuel to supply the nation’s needs, there will be noth- ing else to do except for the govern- ment to operate the pnoperties.’ LA: .
