Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sympathetic Strikes and Sympathetic Lockouts The federation of labor and the counter-federation of employers is the characteristic feature of the present epoch. A few years ago each Union was an independent organization though the sympathy between the different trades was strong, and showed itself repeatedly in the form of subscriptions to other trades when their members were on a strike or were locked out. But now the Union of men in a trade has developed into a Union of different trades together, and practical sympathy has taken the form of aiding a strike by striking also. This, of course, has the effect of increasing the area of the contest and of dragging into it persons not originally involved.
