Who Are Strikes Really Against?
. here ix , Once-agmn, nere nersney, we are facing the pos-sibility
of a strike. It is- disquierinvand -unpleasant to
think of such things, especialry wh4n We consider the,
ugly, situations of but a short time ago.
Who are strikes really against? Who '"wins"? Who
loses"?. Let's examine a recent strike in New York
City to see.
• Last December the truck drivers who deliver that
great city's newspapers shut down the nine daily papers
for 17 days.
- At the end of that time, the striking employees
went back to work for approximately the same `pack-age"
they had been offered before the strike. But they
had lost $600,000 in wages!
From the standpoint of this $600,000, the strike
was against the strikers' families.
From the standpoint of the five million dollar loss
in wages to non-striking newspaper employees (who
had to be laid off), the•strike was against their, fellow,
employees.
From the standpoint of the 10,000 newsstands that
had to be shut down, the strike was against the people
who sell their product.
From the standpoint' of the heavy loss of business
by the entertainment industry, the strike was against
musicians, waiters, actors, entertainers, prize-fighters
and stage hands.
From the standpoint of the profit that would have
come from the twenty-five million dollars in Christmas
advertising that was never run, the strike was against
the owners of the newspapers and the U. S. Govern-ment,
which would have received 52',;, of the profit in
taxes.
_ Other innocent sufferers were real estate sales-men,
used car salesmen, waste paper dealers, mail or-der
companies and thousands of small neighborhood
stores whose trade is largely brought in by the sale of
newspapers.
Every strike has its bad side effects, although they
are not always so obvious as they were in this case. The
same penalties to innocent bystanders are always pres-ent.
Although aimed at "capital," the owners of a com-pany,
most of the price is paid by other workers.
The present- economic situation here does not ap-pear
to justify the drastic action presently being plan-ned.
-
It is our fervent hope that a reasonable settlement
will be arrived at, eliminating the possibility of wide-spread
and hurtful effects of a strike.
