The game was worth neither the Gost nor the consequences In the light of this frank explanation from the highest German @uthority, what becomes of the petty attempts of Republican cam- paign speakers to prove the President « coward? Who was doing the vacillating? Who was counting the cost? (Who was prepared to give way?

T BECOMES more and more apparent that the traction strike, which has utterly failed to “paralyze the city’s transit lines,” is settling into a sullen, desperate struggle on the part of union leaders to preserve their own prestige and that of their organization. The Interborony:h strike proved a fizzle. Subway and elevated services have been scarcely interrupted. Indeed these two systems have even managed to run extra trains to handle the overflow from Teas prepared surface lines. Organization leaders are now hard at work trying to force strikes on tue Third Avenue line and on the trolley lines of the Brons, Queens and Richmond in a last effort to demon- strate at least some part of the strength they boasted. Now comes the dangerous hour. From the point of view of public order, a successfu! trike is often less troublesome than a half- defeated one. The more rabid element among the traction strikers could far better stand the spectacle of a thorough tie-up, with the public floundering, than to see new men in their jobs and service going on as usual. In the latter case the hotheads are sure to clamor for more forceful methods. There is no way of closing the saloons to such as prefer them for debating grounds. Wrongs look Digger and resentment grows, until violence appears to be the one hope of producing quick results, So far disorder has not been serious, It should not become go. The police may be counted on to do their part. But a heavy re- sponsibility rests upon the etrike leaders to keep the men to peaceful The Jarr Family ” By Roy L.
