INJUSTICE TO KEY,
BASELESS CHANGE
J. D. Crenshaw Leaves
Service of Ga. Rv. and
Electric Co.
Following tho recent attempt of the
street railway conductors and motor-
men to form an organization, and the
discharge of several of the men, J. D.
Crenshaw, formerly a conductor, but
who states that ho has voluntarily left
the company, has written a statement
in which he defends Alderman James
L. Key from President Arkwright’s
charge that Mr. Key had stirred up
strife among the men.
The statement from the former mo-
torman, voluntarily given to The Geor
gian, follows:
To the Editor of Tho Georgian:
There has been so much In the papers
about the recent stir among the street
car men and so much Injustice been
done that I ask you to print this state
ment.
I am one of the promoters of the as
sociation which the street car men
tried to get up and was among tho first
to sign tho paper. There had been some
talk among thrf men for a long time
ahum getting up the association und
"e did not know how to go about It.
We knew that the company iyas much
‘•i'posed to any sort of organization and
would chop off the men connected with
it unless we got a strong membership
Mojv they found It out. We thought
If we could get a large number of the
non to sign for the association that
they would let us alone.
It was necessary to have someone to
fix up our agreement and start us right,
ar.d Mr. James L. Key was selected
because some of the men knew him
and those that did not know him per-
s 'Hally knew that he had always been
!l friend to the working class of people.
asked Mr. Key to draw our pa-
l“Ts, and let us come up to his office
and sign them up. He agreed to do it,
and did do it.
As goon as the company got wind of
lb- matter they set spies to watching
the men and as fast as men were seen
anywhere In the neighborhood of
M: Key’s office they were notified to
>! v off and go to tho superintendent’s
office and there they were suspended
or dropped.
Some of the men were allowed to
* rk on If they would withdraw from
v ‘• association; others were dropped
entirely. I was allowed to work on
tnyself, while some who had less to do
"hh it were discharged for good. This
v is not right; to discharge these men
ln this manner, without any Just cause,
and the company will find It out. There
nothing done by any one of the
* n that was not perfectly upright and
honorable.
