The clash between | nneica’ from six to 16, capital and labor, and in the last analysis that is| exactly what this amounts to, is an old one. Thel two forces have had many encounters in the past.| They will have many more in the future. The out- come of this strike is not going to settle the age old | controversy between capital and labor, but it is true | that it may clear the air and bring the two to a basis of better understanding which is absolutely necessary if we are to do away with the terrific losses and ac- companying hardships resulting from industrial strife History of the past as a rule settle anything, B Now with the str little real hunting. € on we can go out and do a for Thanksgiving?

Somebody makes a point, | somebody loses one and agreements are reached after a lot of inconvenience which could just as well have been' reached without ‘an actual break'. It may be expected that this strike will result little different from the others. Assistant Secretary of Labor Ed- ward F. McGrady probably ear-marked it about right when he called it “sheer madness.” Mr. McGrady implied, and rightly too, that the strike is no compliment to the negotiating ability of either the ship owners or labor leaders, Despite the efforts of the government in behalf of the public an action has resulted which shows no consideration for the public, that vast group of American citizens who are not in the transportation business or interested in a labor union. Much is heard of government interference in busi- ness, but who can that great consuming public look to for representation in this sort of action except the government?
