...Cf. Mitchell. Lewis' career and character are similar to those of John Mitchell, leader of the Pennsylvania coal strike of 1902, which started with the operators' declaration: " There is nothing to arbitrate," was fought through the summer under Mitchell's slogan, " Fight to a bitter end," and was arbitrated by President Roosevelt in October, 1902, after Mitchell had won public fear and respect by his determined and unflinching character...

...around that a college graduate could be expected to supply information on all subjects. And the hapless graduate has been trying to live up to expectations ever since. Perhaps he may have seemed a trifie too persistent in his efforts, but a consideration of the obstacles to be overcome (cf. Thomas Edison and others) should persuade us to be lenient in our judgements. The whole thing is so obviously unfair; there should be a set of rules established. Running graduates through the gauntlet is becoming a most alarmingly "catch-as-catch-can" sport, or, in another metaphor, a case...
