Undulant Socialism
A sick republic, like a human invalid, passes through a crisis in the
course of almost any protracted il
ness. After the crisis, the patient .
rallies toward = rect or sinks
with alarming has.e toward the end.
Whatever is to ke done after a crisis must be accomplished with dis.

are being drawn. The crisis
over and England has gone. left.
A Long Time Dead.
Thereis something strangely final
about it when a free people turns
its course teward State Socialism.
Liberty néver<comes back without
a revolution and then it’s not the
same. Such is the testimony of recorded history. Industrially, England is a coal country and private
enterprise lost its last stronghold on
the enchanted island when King
Coal surrnedered.
Now the ailment that prostrated
John Bull has been communicated
to Uncle Sam. The symptoms are
unmistakable as undulant fever;
wave upon wave of collectivist power, with a show of growing intensity. Our government has_ taken
over our coal mines from their owners because of work stoppages
through strikes—strikes by the best
paid group of mine ee" on
earth.
Here’s the Pattern
I think perhaps the workers ought
to have had an increase in pay,
which they no doubt could have obtained without striking. Nevertheless, they struck and government
took sver the business long enough,
at least, to close a new contract
giving an increase of $1.85 a day
per man and a royalty of 5c a ton
on coal to give their union a ‘‘welfare’’ fund. The new ‘‘welfare’’
fund has no relation to the union’s
sick and accident fund, already
large.
The new contract will raise the
the price of coal 25c to 30c a ton
and build up the ‘‘welfare’’ fund
at the rate of 25 million dollars a
year. The Senate has approved the
executive department’s right to impose this contract on the mine
owners when they take their property back. This is an attack of the
-undulant socialism.
Works Like This:
Government can now control the
cost of coal to the owner of a mine:
By fixing labor’s wage, a ruler can
make coal production cost whatever
suits his fancy. Government already controls the price of coal to
the consumer through the workings
of the OPA. The neck of the coal
industry is in a legal nut-cracker
and government has the power to
choke it to death at will—that, or
take it over entirely.
With the sanction of Congress,
which I hope never comes, federal
‘officials can do to any industry what
they are doing to coal. Each assault on freedom will be one more
attack of the dread disease, undulant socialism. It works like the
fever which, scientific men say, can
be cured in rare instances if vigorous treatment is begun in the wai
stages.
