——— SeeriyOus Sriws -2 & weeki 3% & mesth; S0 . - . Mowwich, Wednesday, Nov. 12, 1919 _— WEEK ENDING NOV. 8th, ‘1919, 10,319 RESCINDING THE STRIKE. The action taken by the leaders of the soft coal miners in calling off the | astrike that has prevailed since the first of the month is what the country anticipated. The fact that they are Americans, as Acting President Lewis #aid. and could not fight the govern- Mment is a plausible attitude to take, but they seem to think more of their American connection when forced to obey the laws of the country than they did when they showed defiance to all that stood in the way of their un- dertaking. After having seriously interrupted the Broduction of coal for eleven days it is to be sincerely hoped that the miners who followed the order- to strike will recognize the position in which they have been placed and, in- asmuch as some of them have claim- od they knew very little about the merits of the demands on which the strike was based but believed they wpre all right beceuse their leaders bad told them so, return to work and endeaver to do what lies within their power to make up the coal they have created. In the meantime the rescinding of | the strike order opens the way for the adjustment of the differences that gxist between the miners and the op- brators, and the miners must realize from the attitude the people of the country have taken that the course they took on top of the outrageous de- mands that they made had failed to #ain public, sympathy. Nevertheless there s no reason why the demands of the miners cannot be adjusted in sccordance with the facts. Such could have been done without the cailing of a strike had there been the disposition on the part of their leaders or had there been a willingness to listen tol the appeals of the president and the department of labor. | The same channels for ing ghe demands passed upon are open now ! a8 they were before the sirike but the miners’ union ard other labor organi- zations that have supported them have suffered a loss in prestige that it will be hard to regain. It has been shown that one organization or one class is ngt going to dictate to the country. shortage ., THE AMERICAN LEGION. f For the 1 half century the peo- ple of this country have been famil- far with the organization of Civil war veterans known as the Grand Army of the Republic. That organization isn't siing to be forgotten even though it: mfembers are rapidly growing les: TRe services its members performed are going to remain green in the mamory of the people of this country, even as those of the Spanish War Veterans. Today mueh ‘nterest is being dircct- | edato & new organization, and like ihe other an organization Zrowing out of 4. war and one that has greater possibilities in the way of membership. And not the least interested in the development of this new body are the veterans of previous wars. This week at Minneapolis there is being held the first national convention of the Amer- ican Legion made up of the soldiers who participated in tne great war in Burope and which can be relied upon for the development of patriotic thought and actior. in this country, What its membership will becom: there is no teliing but the possibili- ties are large considering the millions of en who were in the sorvice. ‘fl, orgenization’s development tipally arouses much interest the country. That its members are d to play an rtant part in the 1 of the country is fully recognized attention will be centered upon the effort that is being made to have thp organization kept out of politics. Asnumber of meciters of much import- are to be acted upon at this ses- but waatever is done regarding Eumm it can be taken for granted it will be found making an em- tic stand in behalf of Americani- and the fight to save the coun- am within as well as from with- i GOOD RECOMMENDATIONS. t has been pretty conclusively ated, and even admitted, that steel strike i lost inasmuch as s are starting up and the strikers returmning. but there is neverthe- interest in the report of the-sen- committee that has been investi- it.

The difficulties which private cor- porations encounter when the govern- ment takes over coal in transit is well {llustrated by what befell the Wallace & Bons Manwlacturing Company «of ‘Wallingford when coal which they had paid for was diverted in transit to the Conneeticut’ Brass & Manufacturing Company then ‘engaged in some con~ tract for the governmeni, but which soon thereafter become insulvent and unable to reimburse the Wallace Com- pany for the coal.’” They appealed to Congressman Tilson of the Third Dis- trict who took up‘the matter with the government saying “It is unthinkable that the- United ‘States, having taken the property for its own use without the consent of the owners should néw refuse to pay for i:.h".
