In Center of Track


Nils ]. Knagenhjelm, 1916 Gramercy

bound Playa del Rey car at Sixteenth
street and Gramercy place last night.
He was hurled twenty-five feet to the
roadside and was dead when picked up.
1t Is said by witnesses that Knagenh :
jelm was STOPPING over in the center of

TALKS
ON GOOD ROADS
NATIONAL SECRETARY GIVES
ADVICE
DISCUSSES OILED HIGHWAYS
County Commission suspends Business
Session to Hear interesting and
Instructive Address by Col.
r. W. Richardson

The regular monthly meeting Of the
County Highway commission was held
yesterday morning at the courthouse
After the opening preliminaries fur
ther business was suspended to allow
Col. r. W. Richardson of Omaha, Sec
retary of the National Good Roads as
ISOLATION, to address the commissions
ers. He was much interested in the
line of work this commission is doing
and said that while your work is to
a certain extent ethical, you are COM
bining the useful and practical and as
similating 1t with the natural beauties
OF this country"
Also, that ''it is the very essence of
public spirit for you gentlemen to stop
III the midst of business activity to
take time to discuss so commonplace
thing as the country roads. 1t is the
most patriotic thing one could do and
one that would bring lasting good to
the country at large.
THE matter Of roads and their care
and improvement Is one of the greatest
Importance to us, and yet one that re-
ceives the greatest Indifference. The
reason for this, think, is the fact that
1t is used so freely by all that it is a
matter of little concern to us.
While roads and road work are
commonplace matters, few of us ever
stop to think of them. 1t is true that
our highways are essentially the most
democratic thing we possess. They are
the very basis of Individual, CONNER
cial and social independence and the
man, no matter how busy he is, who
stops long enough to consider the mat
ter will not be long in becoming a good
roads enthusiast"
In speaking further of the great
Transforming power of good roads in a
community where bad roads have been
he cited the change that has been
wrought in Southern Alabama, around
Jackson, where the whole country is
clay and soft soil, washed down by the
river. He said:
In this section, in the worst seasons
Of the year, owing to the bad condi-
tons of the roads, business came to a
standstill, for not enough cotton could
be hauled to keep the mills busy. 1t
being scarcely possible to haul two
bales of cotton at time. The National
Good Roads association went into this
section and brought material down
from Illinois to build 1900 yards or SO
of good road as an object lesson. This
was built near the town, where the
traffic congested from the branch
roads.
This road went through the worst
season all right and following that, the
people came together by common con-
sent and obtained special act to bond
the county, raised the money, shipped
material from Illinois, built more good
roads and now it is a common sight
to see loads of fifteen or sixteen bales
Of cotton on broadtired wagon go in
to market in the worst season."
Mr.. Richardson is interested greatly
In Californias oiled roads, but gave
his opinion that the oiling of some of
the roads, in the way some of them are
oiled, is a useless outlay of money

Catarrh of Stomach

Miss Genevive May, 1917 s. Meridian

WILL NOT MEET
WITH STRIKERS
SALT LAKE OFFICIALS ARE
UNc0MPROMISlNe
NO CHANGE IN SITUATION
General Manager Says Increase In
Wages viii Be Made September
I, as Originally Planned, but
Not Before
NO CHANGE IN SITUATION

"Am I willing to meet the striking
switchmen and effect settlement of
the strike which they have declared ?
NO. indeed. The Salt Lake road does
not know that they are on the face of
the earth" This is the way General
Manager Wells expressed himself yes
terday on the general strike of the
swltchmen of the Salt Lake road at
Los Angeles, San Pedro, Caliente and
Las Vegas.
Il hardly think they will care to see
me- either" he continued. "The posi-
tions Of those men who left us Tuesday
have already been filled. We simply
notified a number Of those men who
were on our waiting list and within
half an hour everything was moving
along as If nothing had happened. The
men are those who, for the most part,
were waiting for road positions. Six
refused to work. The remainder were
eager to do so. They have gone to
work at the same wages paid those
whose positions they are now filling.
"The strikers have made themselves
the laughing stock of other employees
and, had they waited for few weeks,
they would have received an increase
OF wages along with a number of
others, without any demonstration on
their part. We plan a general increase
in nearly all salaries after September
first.
No Sympathetic Strike
There has been no talk of a SYM
pathetic strike and such is not con-
templated by their fellows"
At the headquarters of the road it
was stated yesterday that everything
was running along smoothly.
The fact is that the strike was called
oil a day when the Salt Lake was cop
ing with the question of handling the
largest business in it's history. The
time for the walkout could not have
been better planned, but, now that the
road is in a condition to take care of
its business, the advantage which the
strikers had does not favor their being
granted any consideration by the COM
pany.
The only delay on the Fourth was
that caused by the derailing of car
at the Fourth street switch, which de-
layed traffic for half an hour. This
may have been done accidentally or
purposely by the strikers.
They say that they have thirty men
out and can tie up the road if they SO
desire. The company officials say nine
men are out at Los Angeles, three and
San Pedro and six at Las Vegas.
1t was planned by the strikers yes
terday to get their fellow switchmen
on other roads to handle Salt Lake
freight as quickly as possible and
cause congestion Of freight in the
Los Angeles yards, so that the road
would not be able to handle it.
The union held meeting at Fire
mems hall last night to talk over plans
for settlement of the strike.

and flaxen curls. The poet listened at
tentively, while we unfOlded our business

fact that the people throughout the land

he could Law aside the money for his daugh-

One of the daughters brought a pitcher
of the wine, and we sat with our glasses
and listened to gentle talk that was ele-
waiting and full of kindly hurnOr. 1t was
talk of rather a different kind from that
we were accustomed to hear in the theat-
rical mart of New-York, and it refreshed us.
We left at last. feeling that we had had
a most delightful afternoon, even if the
success of our mission by no means was
assured In about a week | received a
letter from Mr.. Longfellow, saying that
he had decided not to attempt to read
his own poems. He felt that he ought
to be satisfied, he wrote, if other people
read them. Our trip to Cambridge
brought us no financial fruit, but it has
been one of my pleasantest memories.
Shortly after my effort to persuade
Longfellow to publicly read his poetry l
became absorbed in arrangements to
take a musical combination to Australia
My artists were to be Clara Louise Kel-
logg, Annie Louise Cary, August Wilhelm
the viOlinist, and Rafael JOseffy the
pianist, all of whom were then at the
zenith of their fame. l planned to give
Australia a musical treat such as she had
never had before, and then to move tri-
umphantly on to London. The project
meant a trip around the world. | was
