For the benefit of our readers who may have been led to wonder whether labor really intends jo ? co-operate or obstruct, we have asked the editors of many journals representing organized laoor wheth- er in their opinion disaffected labor in war industries should accept government arbitration instead of 1 striking. I The replies are published in this week's issue of THE LITERARY DIGEST March 2d TThile the minority which speaks for Socialists and "working class" radicals insists that labor, m t ie words of the Wheeling Majority, "should never in war or peace give up its right to strike, other labor editors reflect re-flect a different opinion. For instance, the Labor World (Duluth) says that .No American working men who have any regard for iheir country and the great principles of human liberty and democracy whifh are at stake in this war, will do one act that will delay for a single moment the building of a ship or the production ot an article needed t feed, clothe or equip our boys in France or in training at home." j Get THE LITERARY DIGEST this week if you would obtain a clear insight into the attitude of American labor toward the war.
