The Industrial War

By Editor

The United States Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment of the lower court in sentencing thirty members of the International Association of Structural Iron Workers to prison. These cases have been in court ever since the wholesale arrests that were made because of the dynamiting of buildings, bridges, etc., in various parts of the nation. They represent the fight between organized labor on the one hand and organized capital on the other. Each side is claiming that injustice and crooked dealing characterize the other. But it is apparent to all that such facts as are represented in the trials of these men show that we have a determined industrial war on our hands. What will be the outcome of it, is the important thing for us to study, rather than to devote ourselves to a mere discussion of how much is right or wrong in either side of the controversy.
