Freedom Of Choice
Ton Boat jota and pay daae to a labor Uaioa. or elee five up
job tbst a cnipalgaa vfcfcfc ia Mt Mag imposed upon
hundreds of thousands of "free"* >amnn estilen
Within tbe tase few awiths virtually «01 the railroads of the
eeuntry haw agreed with the railroad Uataaa that all employees
must bicorne Uaioa amWn aad start payiag dues and fees to
the Uokmm aad that tbaaa who are net wiUtag to do oo shall be
proapti) diedurged. ao matter how loaf or bow crape'.en', they
auy haw beta working at their joba- The saie thing is widely
spreading ia otber iadustriaa.
Tfcat tbia ia aa wrong as it could paambty be. seems beyond
argument or qaeebo* The right aad freedom to m « .¿nor Union
ia ao loafer denied aaywher* ta this country It ia protected by
Federal law. Bat the cormpoading right and freedom to stay
out of a Uaioa ia not ao protected and is now becoming rapidly
extinguished ia this, our land of liberty."
The matter is one that deserve* a great deal atore attention
than it baa geaerally been receiving. Thouaaada of cmpioyeea the
country over, who are not willing to join the Unions have peti-
tioned and protested but so far n vain.
If this be aot a form of tyranny, then what is it? It is a denial
of individual freedom of choice. It is a levy of tribute in behalf
of private organisations, for the privilege of working and earning
a living, it is an oppression of minorities and a compelled alle-
giance. which arouaes natural and bitter resentment. It moreover
creates a condition of monopoly, which in the long run will in-
evitably work to the injury of employers, employee* and the
general public alike.
The principle at stake ia simple, basic aad vital. Individual
liberty means freedom to join a lawful organisation and likewise
freedom not to join. It means the one as truly as it means the
other!
A bill has recently been introduced in Congress which would
assure to every American citizen that he has a right to join a
labor Union or not to join, as he may see fit aad that be shall
not be subjected to any requirement or compulsion in either direc-
tion. This certainly ought to be the law in this land. It is to be
hoped that those who share this conviction will so declare them*
selves to their representative in Congreaa.
