Out of the turmoil a new political party led by labor and the fanners ' may rise unless the older parties deal with the situation. Senator Walsb, Massachusetts predicts. v Some senators declare, that the industrial situation is almost out of band and that congress is helpless. Others; declare that, a show down between labor and the. government is imminent and th&t force will decide it. . "If either one or both of the existing political parties fail to face this problem and settle, it on line of justice to both interests, I believe We will see e coalition of the farmers and labor interests and a new political party orMniutinn" sflvs Senator Walsh, re gardcd as a friend of labor. This course It was pointed out. has been followed by labor in Great Britain. "It looks to me as if congress will have to undertake srfme legislation to remove as far as possible all Just causes of discontent between employer and employes," Walsh said. "But how much have we really done to reduce the cost of. living," .he asked. "Has not the government a very grave responsibility to grapple with ' this problem? An earnest endeavor , to do this would restore confidence and hope of better conditions 'among the employed and do much to settle unrest ."But I'believe it Is the fundamental right of the employes to claim the right of collective bargaining and until something definite is suggested that will give him a substitute for the strike this country is going to fee face to face with much more serious Industrial unrest than we are now passing through."
