Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Articles on the Compulsory Arbitration and Compulsory Investigation of Industrial Disputes Resolved, That Capital and Labor should be compelled to settle their disputes in legally established courts of arbitration. Affirmative Introduction. A. The question presupposes the existence of labor disputes B. The Affirmative merely proposes that these disputes be settled by peaceful adjudication in courts of law, as all other disputes are now settled. C. We must not lose sight of the fact that in addition to the two antagonists in every labor dispute there is always a great third party, the general public, innocent of any blame but injured by every strike. D. The Affirmative does not claim that compulsory industrial arbitration will put an absolute end to all phases of industrial warfare, but we do claim that it will reduce labor disturbances to a minimum, as it has done in New Zealand and in Kansas. I. The existing conditions in our industrial system demand a remedy. A. There are great evils connected with industrial warfare. I. Mobs, riots and other disturbances of the peace. (McClures 23:43.
