EDITORIAL

PROPOSED We have lately received a number of requests from local RAILROAD unions demanding that a strike vote be immediately taken by STRIKE our organization on all lines in the United States, on the question of enforcing our original demands retroactive to January 1, 1919, which carried with it a provision that a strike be called not later than August 1, 1919. These demands have practically all come on a coupon detached from a resolution circulated by a District Council of Rail­ road Shop Crafts of Chicago and vicinity. They advertise a strike for a number but not all of the roads entering Chicago and all roads of Florida. This Council in its resolution did not take into consideration in any way, shape or form, that there is a Railway Employees' Department of the A. F. of L., through which any strike action must necessarily be taken. They provide a coupon to be sent to the said District Council of Shop Crafts, and one coupon to Grand Lodges. We have to date received ten of the detached coupons, calling upon us to take a strike vote and order a general strike by August 1st. This is not enough even to initiate a referendum and all locals should realize that it would be impossible to take a strike vote on all the roads in the United States in less than sixty days, and more time than that should be taken in order to give the membership a chance to vote. It should also be taken into consideration that every organization affi­ liated with the Railway Department is doing everything possible to secure an agreement with the Railroad Administration covering all railroads. That agreement is now in the hands of the Railroad Administration, after the Agreement Committee working on the matter for a period of more than three months. We have at present a tentative agreement with the Railroad Administration, and the machinery provided by that agreement is working to produce another agreement with an increase in wage and a general agree­ ment with special rules for all crafts. The Railroad Administration has had it a very short time, and consideration must be given the fact that the last Congress adjourned without making appropriation for the railroads, leaving the Administration in an unsettled state, but we feel convinced that our patience will be rewarded by a general agreement, and some increase in wages, while a strike at this time would only tend to upset all of the work done so far on the agreement, and we could not expect the Railroad Admin­ istration to be forced through violation of one agreement to enter into an­ other. Any bona fide movement for the Railroad Workers will be taken through the Railway Employees Department of the A. F. of L., where all crafts will act in concert, and any notice or demand to strike from any other source cannot be recognized by the affiliated crafts. Independent action by certain groups on the railroads can only work to the detriment of the railroad employees as a whole, and we are asking that local unions submit any such requests or demands direct to Railway Employees Department, regardless of the source from which they come. Assuring all concerned that the officials of the Department and affiliated Internationals are using every means known to them to hasten a decision by the Railroad Administration regarding agreement, raise in pay and condi­ tions, and trusting that the railroad electrical workers will continue to use the patience and judgment which has advanced the case so far in the near past. 622 THE JOURNAL OF ELECTRICAL

ENGINEERS' For the information of all members relative to the CONTROVERSY. present status of the controversy between the Steam and Operating Engineers and the I. B. E. VY. re­ garding the jurisdiction over men engaged in operatin~ generating, sub­ stations and electric cranes, we herein quote the actIOn of the recent Convention of the American Federation of Labor held at Atlantic City, N. J., June 19th to 23rd, inclusive. Our appeal from decision of the Executive Council was referred to the committee on Executive Council's report. After hearing both sides to the controversy, the committee reported as follows: "Your committee was deeply impressed with the grave consequences involved in any decision that may be made in this controvery; and because of its highly technical features your committee recommends that the President of the American Federation be authorized and directed to select a committee of five men who by training and experience are com­ petent to judge the technical trade questions involved to make an investi­ gation of the points at issue and that this committee submit its report to the Executive Council, which, after further conference with the two organizations in dispute, shall render such decision and make .such ?is­ position of this controversy as in its opinion the results of the mvestlga­ tion warrant." The report of the committee was adopted unanimously by the convention. You will note that the decision rendered by the Executive Council was not concurred in by the Convention, but the case was re-opened by the adoption of the above action, and provisions made for a committee of five men qualified by training and experience to investigate and judge the technical trade questions involved, and report their finding to the Executive Council. We have suggested to the A. F. of L. that as this question is one that concerns the Metal Trades and the electrical industries only, and does not enter into the Building TracJes jurisdiction, that men of the Metal Trades' craft be appointed on this committee. This action of the convention places the matter back in its original form as before any decision was rendered, and any attempt on the part of anyone to claim jurisdiction over these men who properly belong in the I. B. E. \V., should be resisted by our locals, and all local unions especially interested because of having members employed in generating or sub-stations, or as cranemen in affiliation, must use every effort to guard against encroachment on their jurisdiction. We feel confident that any body of mechanics familiar with the work involved, will recognize this work as ceming properly under the jurisdic­ tion of the electrical workers. vVe anticipate there will be attempts made to gain control of this work and then lay claim to it by right of possession, but we know that with the co-operation of our local unions, any such attempts cannot be successful, and we trust that the slogan of all local unions will be Guard your Jurisdiction.

PHONE Local unions are all familiar with the negotlatlOns and SITUATION. efforts which brought about the issuance of Orders 3209 and 3210, by the Postoffice Department. No effort was spared to secure recognition of the cardinal principles of the right to organize and bargain collectively, but we find that many of the telephone companies have deliberately disobeyed or evaded the order of the Post­ master General, by refusing to deal with committees or representatives WORKERS AND OPERATORS 623 authorized to act for their employees and others, by the formation of company owned and controlled organizations or associations. All employees of telephone companies should resent to the utmost the reflection on their intelligence cast by the company, when they ask them to believe that an organization that will be organized and controlled by the companies, and in which the company officers will have the greater say, can or will produce any good results for the workers. The Rockefeller plan of organization cannot be considered as a labor union, so long as it remains under the dominion of company officers. The membership in California called a strike of all locals in that state, and in order that the utmost pressure might be brought to bear on that company, the International called out the states of Oregon and Washing­ ton with them, the tie-up being complete, and prospects for settlement bright. In St. Louis we were also compelled to go on strike because of the companies refusing to obey the order, and because of their activity in forming company locals. The Kinlock Company has since settled, recog­ nizing the organization of their employees affiliated with the Brother­ hood, and consenting to a material increase in wage scale. The Bell Company at that point is still on strike. The manager at Louisville, Ky., refused to recognize the repre­ sentative chosen by the employees there, and the same activity toward organ­ izing company union forced a strike at that point, which is still in progress, with every prospect of a successful termination. A like situation exists at Cleveland, Ohio, and by an overwhelming vote the telephone employees ha ve directed a strike. Our strike vote was taken for a strike against the Government as the one employer, for the right to organize and bargain collectively, and for the establishment of machin'2ry for adjusting disputes. Order 3209 fulfilled our demands in this respect, so that no general strike was called and hence no general assessment levied; the conditions on which the vote was taken having been fulfilled by the Government. We have recognized strikes for violation of this order at various places, and may se called upon to recognize other difficulties in support of some of the difficulties now called, and because of company activities in organizing company unions. . 624 THE JOURNAL OF ELECTRICAL
