Strikes Invented
Centuries Ago
Industrial Strikes Recorded
Early 'In Christian - Era
Strikes being uppermost in our '
thoughts these days, we have gone
to some pains to discover how mo-
dern they are; whether they came
in with the industrial revolution in
the latter' part 'of the 'Eighteenth
Century, relates the Kansas City
Star. They didn't. They were in-
vented in ancient times, certainly
as far back as the R0m1111 Empire ,
2,000 years ago.
Stril(es didn't exactly flourish in
Roman times, because slaves were
plentiful, and when an employer
could rent slaves at a few cents a
day he was able to keep wages
down. Any free workman who was
dissatisfied with the' job could be.
replaced with little trouble.
In the early days of Rome there
were some general strikes on the
part of the common people, the ple-
beians, to force the granting of po-
litical rights by the aristocracy.
But a few industrial strikes began
to trickle into the records early in
the Christian cra.
* t *
An Egyptian papyrus contains a
record of a sitdown strike In an
alabaster quarry in the Second
Century A.D. The young man
managing 'the quarry for his father
wrote the old gentleman about it.
Seems some sections of the quarry
were more desirable to work in
than others. One gang that was
ordered by the foreman to leave a
desirable section for a less desir-
able one went'. on a sitdown strike.
The words "sit down" are used in
the letter. The foreman reported:
"Some of the men came to me and
said: 'We are going out to our old
place and sit down until you bring
us word' " — presumably of the
rescinding of the order. The threat
was successful. The men won their
point, and were not transferred.
• *
The shipmasters of vessels in the
grain trade from the river port of
Arles in Southern France notified
the official in charge of the export
of wheat to Italy that they would
strike if their demands were not
met. The official thought their de-
mands were justified and asked the
proper official in Rome to see that
the inequities were corrected. What
happened isn't recorded, but as
there were no complaints of the
stopping of the wheat shipments
it is our guess that the demands of
the shipmasters were met,
There are several reports of
strikes by the menders of temple
utensils in Jerusalem, As there
were few slaves in Palestine it was
not possible to meet the strike
threat in the usual way and skilled
labor had to be imported from
Alexandria, Egypt.
* * * •
There is a 'record of another
strike, or threatened strike, at Per-
gamon, Asia Minor, in the Fifth
Century. A builder's crew -had tak-
en a job at too low a price, or else
the men had. been offered more on
another job — it isn't clear which
— and so threatened to quit work
until the matter was adjusted.
Finally there was a sitdown strike
in the Roman Mint in the latter
part of the Third Century. The
Emperor Aurelian had found evid-
ence of graft in the issuing of sub-
standard coins and had closed the
Mint. The workmen then fortified
themselves in the building.
Troops were sent to get then out
and several thousand men were
killed in the fighting.
* * *
We don't know of any particular
lessons to be derived from these
bits of ancient history. Perhaps
they might be taken as confirmato-
ry evidence that human nature
doesn't change much through the
centuries. 01:en always have been
anxious to improve their condition,
and -collective bargaining has been
one of the obvious methods. Inci-
dentally, we find that in England
strikes were illegal until 1824, and
in France until 1864.

Canada's Biggest
Transport Plane
History was made in Canadian
civil aviation last week when Can-
ada's newest and biggest four -en-
gined, 40 -passenger transport plane
which reportedly will fly faster at
high altitudes than any other plane
in the world was christened "North
Star" at Montreal.
The plane will be able to fly 3,500
miles without stopping and as high
as 28,000 feet. Maximum, cruising
speed is 325 miles, per hour, but it
usually will be operated at speeds
between 240 and 300 miles an hour,
depending -on the length of the
flight.
It will be used in trans-Atlantic,
international and transcontinental
services.
In bad weather the "North Star"
can be guided right down the run-
way by radio.
The "North. Star's" engines have
a take off power of 7,000 horse
power.
The comfortable interior of the
air liner incorporates the main
cabin, a galley, a cabin attendants'
station and magazine ,•asks. Dress-
ing rooms, lavatory compartments
and resting places for the crew are
adjacent to the Amain cabin.
Just No Ships
For Passengers
Canada - Bound
A British Transport Ministry an-
nouncement that only 20 per cent
of the transatlantic passenger ac-
commmodation available in August
and September will be reserved for
government-sponsored persons is
expected to'11ave little effect on the
thousands waiting in Britain for a
berth to Canada.
There just aren't any ships.
Shipping officials see small like-
lihood of anything like normal traf-
fic being resumed between the
United Kingdom and North Am-
erica until next March or April.
Some will be lucky enough to
get crossings on the Queen Eliza-
beth after her initial run in Octo-
her. Others may be accommodated
on the Canadian Pacific Steam-
ships' new Empress of Canada'—
the former Duchess of Richmond—
which may make two trips before
the year-end. The rest will have to
wait until other liners become
available next spring.,
Company , officials said they
know of no ships which will be re-
leased in the immediate future from
the movement of troops and depen-
dents. This traffic to Canada is
expected to be pretty well com-
pleted in November.

SPOTS OF SPORTS
By FRANK MANN HARRIS
("A Six Bit Critic") - - .. - - - . - - - - a
As a not -too -serious student of
the sport of baseball it has long
seemed to us, as it has to many
others, that there should be an
entirely different system for rat-
ing the efforts of the pitchers. In
batting, or in fielding, a player is
pretty much on his own; and it is
just about as easy—or hard—for a
man to hit .350 or field .990 on a
front -running team as it is on a
tail ender. But a pitcher's success,
or lack of it, depends so much on
his team -nates that to rate a
heaver who pitches 18 winning
games for, say, The Toronto Maple
Leafs as less efficient than one who
hurls 20 winners for, say, The
Montreal Royals, just doesn't seem
to add up to common sense. Yet
that's the way it works out.
* * *
An illustration of the point we
are trying to make—and whoever
it was hollered `six to five he don't
make it' is out of order—is the
case of Phil Marchildon, an On-
tario lad condemned to do his
pitching on behalf of the Philadel-
phia Athletics. At the present time
of writing Mr. Marchildon had just
turned in his eleventh victory for
the A's, and he will finish up the
season with a [nark of, possibly,
fourteen or fifteen wins.
* * *
Which will put ]riot fairly far
down in the pitchers' standings,
and make him appear decidedly un-
spectacular as compared with hot-
shots such as Bob Feller, Hal
Newhouser, Dave Ferris and sev-
eral others. But while we're not
going away out on a limb and
claiming that Mr. Marchildon is in
a class with the three mentioned,
still, if you'll figure out what he
Itas accomplished in the light of
what he has had to work with, the
think you'll agree he rates a whole
lot higher than the cold statistics
will tend to show.
* * *
For Itfarchildon's eleventh vic-
tory brought the Athletics' total
of wins for the season up to a cool
forty—same being a mere forty-
seven fewer than the league -lead-
ing Boston Red Sox had on the
credit side of the ledger at• that
point. And it wouldn't take a very
hefty knowledge of higher mathe-
matics to argue that -If Phil had
been getting the same sort of sup-
port, offensively and defensively,
as the Boston heavers are favored
with, his wins Alight very well have
run close to the two -dozen nark.
Which- would put him right alp
among the picture -cards.
* * *
But according to the hallowed
laws of baseball, Marchildon is the
property of the Athletics— which
means the property of Cornelius
bfaeGillicuddy, a gentleman with-
in reaching distance of his first
century, who remembers when eggs
were a dime a' dozen and butter
three pounds - for a quarter and
who, from the way. it is rumored
he, rewards his hired help, thinks
that those are stilt the current
prices for such groceries Mr
MacGillieuddy owns the Athletics-
lias managed them since the year
1001—and has all the money he
ever' expects to need, His team
hag. been down ,around the cellar
so ' long that it has become -like
home to him; and, like many elderli
people, he hates to move.
* * *
So he's quite content to sit right
where he is, throwing out annual
promises that he's building for the
future and, in all probability,
quietly chuckling to himself over
the suckers who come out to watch
his teams in such paying numbers.
All of which may be very much
O.K. for Mr. MacGillicuddy, but
nighty hard -- in our opinion at
least — on players who are getting
no younger fast, and who can sea
no possible chance of properly ex-
hibiting
xhibiting the talents they possess.
* * *
For if Marchildon — to get back
to him again — were to just plain
refuse to play ball for the Athletics
any longer, those same sacred laws
of baseball would offer him just
about two options. He could volun-
tarily retire, to sit and fish till all
the sap had departed from his
pitching arm; or Mr. MacGilli-
cuddy, in the greatness of itis heart,
night trade kiln to some outfit like
the St. Louis Browns or Washing-
ton Senators, where he would find
conditions — and opportunities —
much the sane or even more so.
And yet some folks claim that ball-
players are a trifle screwey when
they talk of having a Union that
really operates.
* * 9t
Yet it may be — for all we know
to the contrary — that Marchildon
is quite satisfied with the spot that
he's in, and that We are getting
ourself all hot and bothered to no
good purpose whatever. For in
sport, as in a lot of outer things,
a great deal depends on your point
of view. As for instance that of a
youthful friend of OUIS who, this
past summer, has been Spading'
much of his vacation -time search-
ing for lost balls on a nearby golf
course and — quite incidentally—
re-selling tient to golfers in search
of a bargain
Not so long ago a fraily import-
ant tournament was held on this
course, and we asked our young
friend just how—from his sideline
view-point—all those top-notchers
looked as they passed him in re-
view "Oh, those guys arc no good
— they keep their shots too
'straight," he replied. "\\' hat I like
to watch is a golfer like Mr. Jones
—he hooks two or three out of
bounds' every time he tees off, and
I only wish there were a whole lot
more Like hila."
* *
So there now, Honourable Dubs,
take Heart! Worry no longer over
those slices, those hooks, those
foozled long' approach shots! For
you, too, have your ardent admir-
ers—evert if they don't appear un-
til you have passed out of sight.
