“Nationalizing" All Industry
“If we don’t got what we want out
of this Congress we will put this
Congress out and put another one In
that will give us what we want,” Is
the matter-of-fact announcement of
the central propaganda otfleo of the
brotherhoods In Washington.
Back of the Immediate purpose to
gain control of the railroads Is nn
even deeper scheme to gain control of
all great Industries, taking them from
their owners and putting them under |
the direct management of the organtz-1
ed workers, ns has been done In Itus-1
sin, and as they are attempting to do
In Germany and Austria.
The reports of the United States
Railroad administration show that the
Government, since It took over the
roads In December, 1017, hns Increased
railroad wages by considerably more
| than a thousand million dollars, nnd
I about $000,000,000 n year Is being tnk-
; en out of the National Treasury to
| thv deficit caused by the great
j Increase It* !&•?(>r cost. i
Pip WagM Increases.
I The principal ndennet? wages
have been: To shopmen, ;
to unskilled labor, $223,000,000; to tin*
train brotherhoods, $200,000,000; to
clerks, $123,000,000; to telegraph nnd
station agents, $100,000,000; to mis-
cellaneous classes, $110,000,000.
All of these groups are now demand-
ing additional Increases of from 30 to
50 per cent. When the Government
took control of the ronds the nvernge
earnings of all railroad workers, In-
cluding several hundred thousand un-
skilled workers, was $1,000 a year. The
average is now more than $1,300 nnd
the new demands would raise It to

Washington.—It Is just three years
since the four lenders of the railway
brotherhoods, having refused arbitra-
tion of their demands, sat In the gal-
lery of the United States Senate and
held their watches on the Senators
while the memorable vote was being
taken on the Adamson Law that gave
them $CQ,00Cf.000 pddltlonnl wages a
year. When the vote was’ Counted and
announced the four labor chiefs rushed
out to the telegraph olllce and with-
drew the order for a nation-wide
strike.
That such n scene may be again en-
acted on a much greater scnle Is Indi-
cated by the startling developments
at the nation’s capltnl In the past few
days. Now the 330,(XX) men In the
brotherhoods have been Joined by
more tlmn a million other railroad
workers—shopmen, trackmen, tele-
graphers, clerks, station agents—and
the demands are many times wlmt
they were three years ago.
A Thousand Million Dollars.
On top of a thousand million dollars
of added wages grnnted by the Gov-
ernment In the past year and a half,
the allied workers are asking for an-
other Increase of a thousand million
dollars.
But more than this, this great body
of railroad employees has served an
ultimatum on the Government that all
the railroads of the country must be
taken away from their owners and
turned over to the employees to be op-
erated by them on a communistic
profit-sharing plan.
The plan Is as daring as any con-
ceived by the Russian Bolshevists, and
behind It Is the threat of a nation-wide
•trike, with the leaders of the men sit-
ting In the Senate, gallery, watches In
hand, counting the vote.
