No group of any sort should be al lowed to conspire in restraint of trade. There should not be enmity between Business and Labor. Both are essential; each needs the other. Since Labor is one sided—as is natural—and Busi ness is alarmed all the time— which is also natural—the repre sentatives of law and justice should either hold the scales in even balance between them, guaranteeing the rights of both, or else get out of the way and let Business and Labor come to terms by their mutual necessity. The general demand for a curb on Labor need not prompt us to sacrifice any rights of the workingman. But Labor has not .been arrogant because of its rights but because of special fa vors and privileges. Labor is strong enough to stand alone and to eat meat. It no longer needs a nurse to feed it soothing sy rup and to rock it to sleep. Justice for all men; justice for all interests; special favors to none. That is what we need.
