T rejoice to make gratoful acknowledgment to those who preferred to con- tribute to national welfare rather than profit by a Nation's distress, If it may have your approval, I recommend immediate provision for a temporary national coal agency, with neded capita) to pur- chasé, sell and distribute coal which is carried in interstate ahip- ment, I do not mean that all inter- statec oal shall beh andied by such a Federal organieation; perhaps +snone will be necessary, but it will restore its capital to the pub- lic treasury and will be the instru- mentality of guarding the public interest where private conscience is insensible to a public need. This proposal does not relate to any possible employment in intra- state shipments. Price restraint aand equitable distributton in in~ trastate shipments is a respon- sibility of the State's own govern- ment. In such voluntary activ- ities as have been carried on thus far, the Federal Government has endeavored to re-establish the au- thority and responsibility in tho States which was undermined in the necessary centralization of authority during the World War. The public menace in the coal situation was made more aqute and more serious at the beginning of July by the strike of the Feder- ated Shop Crafts in the railroad service—A strike against a wage decision made by the Railroad Labor Board, directly affecting approximately 400,000 men. The Justice of the decision ts not for discussion here. The decision has been lost sight of in subsequent developments. In any event, it was always possible to appeal for re-hearing and the submission of new evi- ence, and it is alwaye a safe assumption that’ a Govérnment ageney of adjustment decidi unjustly will be quick to make right any wrong. The Railroad Labor Board was created by Congress for the ex- press purpose of hearing and de- eiding disputes betwean the car- riers and their employees, so that no controversy need lead to an in- terruption in interstate transpor- tation. Tt was inevitable that many wage disputes should arise. Wages had mounted upward, necessarily and justly, during the war up- heaval; likewise the cost of trans- portation. So that the higher ‘wages might be paid, it was in- evitable that some readjustments should follow. Naturally, these re- adjustments were resisted. The administrative Government neither advocated nor opposed. It only held that the Labor Board was the lawful agency of the Government to hear and decide disputes and its authority must be sustained as the law contem- plates. This must be so whether the carriers or the employees ignore its decisions. Unhappily a number of deci- sions of this board had been ig- nored by the carriers, In only one instance, however, had a decision challenged by a carrier, been brought to the attention of’ the Department of Justice, and this decision was promptly carried to the courts and has recently been sustained in the Federal Court of Appeals. The public or the Ex- ecutive had no knowledge of the ignored decisions in other cases, because they did not hindr trans- portation. When these failures of many of the carriers to abide by decisions of the board were brought to my attention, I could more fairly appraise the feelings of the strik- ers, though they had a remedy without seeking to paralyze inter- state commerce, ‘The law creating the Railroad Labor Board is inadequate, Con- trary to popular impression, it has little or no power to enforce its decisions. It can impose no pen- alties on either party disregarding its decisions. It can not halt a Strike, and manifestly Congress deliberately omitted the enactment of the compulsory arbitration, ‘The decisions the board must be made enforceable and effective against carriers and employees alike. But the law is new, and no perfection of it by Congress at this moment could be helpful in the present threatened paralysis of transportation, Happily, it is always lawful and ofttimes possible to settle dis- putes outside of court, so, in a desire to serve public welfare, I ventured upon an attempt at me- diation. Those who had preceded me in attempted settlements had made some progress, I submitted to the officials of the strikins employees and the Chairman of the Association of Railway Executives, in writing, on the same day, a tentative pro- posal for settlement. Knowing that some of the carriers had of- T HE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 1922 fended by ignoring the decisions of the board and the employees had struck when they had a remedy without the strike, | felt it was best to resume work, all abide faithfully by the ‘board's deoi- sions, mare ita aueene! of peace trang) tio and everybody’ serve the Public. © The ‘barrier to be surmounted ‘was the question of seniority. By the workmen these rights are held to be sacred, and unsurrendered by a strike. By the sarriers the Preservation of senjority is the weapon of disctpling on the one hand and the reward of faithful employees on the other, It has been an almost invaria- ble rule that when strikes have been lost seniority and its ad- vantages have been surrendered; whenu strikes have been settled seniority has been restored, n the tentative proposal which I sponsored, it was provided that everybody should go t6 work, with seniority tights unimpaired, so that there ‘should be no discrimi- nation by either workmen or car- riers against workmen who did or did not strike. I that the proposal must carry a disappoint- ment to employees who had in- herited peametion hyontaying loy- ally om the job, and to such new) men ag ‘had sought Jobs looking! to pérmanent employment, but I wanted thé fresh start and main- tained transportation service, and | appraised the disappointment of the few to be less important than the impending misfortune to the Nation, It was not what I would ask ordinarily to be considered or conceded, but at that moment of deep anaiéty, with the spactaet o age gravely menacing, was thinking of the pressing demands of the welfare of the Whole neople. The sactifice brought to” the men involved could» be amply compensated for by the carriers in practical ways. | belleved that the matter of tranasendent inv- portance wae the acceptance of the proposal to respect the Labor Board's decisions on the questions which formed the issue at the time of the strike. The public compensation would be complete in guarding by law against recur- rence. The proposal was rejected by the carriers, Though the rejec- tion did not end all negotiation. it left the Government only one course—to call the striking work- men to return to work, to call the carriers to assign them to work, and lwive the dispute about seniority to the Labor Board for decision. When «negotiation or meditation fails this is the course contemplated by the law and the Government can have no chart for its course except the law. To this call a majority of the carriers responded favorably, pro- posing to re-emply al! strikers ex- ceut those guilty of violence against workmen or property; to restore the striking workmen to their old old positoins where vacant, or to like positions where where vacancies are filled; ques- tions of seniority which can not be settled between the employer and employees to go to the Labor Board for decision. The minority of the carriers proposed to assign jobs to workmen on strike only where the positions were vacant. Neither proposal has been ac- cepted. Thus the narrative brings us to the present moment, but it has not included the developments which have heightened the Gov- ernment’s concern. Sympathetic strikes have developed here and there, seriously impairing inter state commerce. Deserted trans - continental trains in the desert regions of the Southwest have re vealed the cruelty and contempt for law/on the part of some railway employees, who have conspired to paralyze transporta- tion, and lawlessness and violence in @ hundred places have revealed the failure of the striking unions to hold thelr forces to law ob- servance. Men who refused to strike and who have braved insult and as- sault and risked their lives to serve a public need have been cruelly attacked and wounded or ‘ailled. Men seeking work and guards attempting to protect lives and property,‘even officers of the Federal Government, have been assaulted, humiliated and hinder- ed in their duties, RL.

The importance of the conference may be better understood when It is realized that the union directly or indirectly participating in the parley represent 2,000,000 rail workers, while the rallroad executives represent bil- lions of dollars of invested capital and hundreds of thousands of travellers and shippers.’ The union leaders insisted that no effort wos being made to coerce the railroad executives into a settlement of the strike, ‘his assurance was given In reply to a rumor that the brotherhoods and other non-striking railroad organizations have come pre- pared to settle the strike even though It becomes necessary to order a sym- pathetic walkout to do It.

TAR FIGHT END LEAVES HICHEST RATESIND YEARS Not Since the Civil War Has There Been Anything Like It. By David Lawrence. (Special Correspondent of The Eve- ning World.) i WASHINGTON, Aug. 18 (Copy- right).—The end of one of the longest tariff battles in American history ts here. Coming out of it all is the highest tariff bill since the civil war. For three or four weeks the bill will be considered by a conference committee of the House and Senate, and while both bodies must ginally approve the action of the Gonfer- ence committee befobe the measure goes to the White House for signa- ture, the chances are there will be relatively few changes in conference and that the debate on the conference report will require only a few days. Members of both houses are anxious for an adjournment so as to be able to give the'r undivided attention to the autumn campaign, so the urge for hasty consideration of legislation from now on will mean stepping on the legialative accelerator in earnest, It cannot be said truthfully that the Republicans themselves are satisfied with the Fordney-McCumber bill, as it will be known in tariff history. Economic conditions throughout the world have been uncertain and costs of production have been changing with the rise and fall of labor prices since the war, President Harding's request for power to proclaim new rates, if the new rates shall be found burdensome or inequitable, has been written into the Senate bill and there’s a chance that this provision will receive much attention in conference, for th is one school of thought which believes the power granted is too large and an- other which holds that the power is too restrictive to be of any conse- quence as a corrective. For aixteon months the tariff has been on the calendar of both Houses. Mr, Harding called a special séssion to consider taxation and the tariff in April, 1921. The Emergency Tariff Bill was passed as a stopgep and it was argued that the new measure would be a ‘permanent tariff bill,’ but as both the Senate and House have gone deeper into thelr tasks and Jearned more ubout conditions of trade the word “permanent” has been gradually eliminated until it is doubt- ful whether the leaders of either house would care to predict that the fi Fordney-McCumber bill will go un- revised in the next few/years. me factor which is new in tariff making is the feminine vote. In the past the influence of the hoysehold matron was only indirectly applied through the masculine ballot. Now, the woman of the house and her daughters who buy things will have a voice in the matter. Many retail Stores who have fought the new tariff bill have, of course, large numbers of women among thelr customers They will not hesitate to tell their customers where the responsibility r higher pric ress has felt sensitive about this from the very beginning. The best evidence of it was in the vote on free hides. The revolt in the Senate came almost entirely because of a recogni- bill would be increased and that wo- men voters would remember such an increase when they went to the polls. But skilful as the tariff makers have tried to be in avoiding the antag- onism of women there are many articles on which high duties have been proclaimed which will indirectly increase the cost to the consumer. Some of these increases have been acknowledged frankly in tariff de- bates, but the answer has been made by the defenders of high tariff Schedules that American business in- dustries needed the protection against the flood of foreign goods and that if Ameriran factories and business were hurt, the purchasing power of the American people would be gdversely affected through unemplgyment. No one ever gets very far attempt- ng to analyze tariff schedules with the mep who make them. A million and one reasons enter into every compromise and the wonder of it all is that any tariff bill is ever passed, so diversified are the. inter of every section, as represented members of the House and 96 mem- bers of the Senate, » But the wrangling ts in its last stages, The all important conference committee of the two Houses will be in session next week to iron out the disagreements between the Senat and tho House. More compromises must be made. Yet, good or bad, the encouraging thing is that Congress is getting rid of the tariff problem, and the remain- ing days of the present session of the short session beginning in December can be devoted to thé\ pending bills relating to the merchant marine, the soldier bonus and the appropriation bills for the next year, which will be scanned with more than perfunctory interest, because of the possible loop- holes that might be furnished for re- duced taxation, as Mr. Harding has promise that he will recommend a revision of the Revenue Act just as soon ag practicable.
