age, and It Is far better that II should
by the Government. But II can only be
done the public
It il because, In my Judgment, pub
lie ownership Of railroads is highly m
desirable and would probably In this
country entail far-rsaohine disaster,
that wish 60 see such supervision and
regulation OF them in the interest OF
the public AZ win make Il evident that
there is no need for public ownership
The opponents OF Government reguls-
ton dwell upon the difficulties 10 be en-
countered and the intricate and involved
nature OF the problem. Their contention
Is true. 1t is a complicated and delicate
problem, and all kinds Of difficulties are
sure TO arise In connection with any
plan OF solution, while no plan will bring
all the benefits hoped for by it's more
optimistic adherents. Moreover. under
any healthy plan. the benefits will de-
Velop gradually and not rapidly.
Finally. we must clearly understand
that the public servants who are TO do
this peculiarly responsible and delicate
work must themselves be OF the highest
type both as regards integrity and ef-
fciency. They must be well paid, for
otherwise able men cannot in the long
run be secured; and they must possess
a lofty probity which will revolt as
quickly at the thought of pandering TO
any gust OF popular prejudice against
rich men as at the thought of anything
even remotely resembling subserviency
to rich men But while l fully admit
the difficulties in the way. I 90 not for
a moment admit that these difficulties
warrant US in stopping in our effort to
secure a wise and just system. They
should have no other effect than to spur
MS on to the exercise of the resolution,
the even-handed justice. and the fer
t1Iity of resource, which We Ike to think
of as typically American. and which will
fn the end achieve good results in this
as in other fields of activity.
The task is a great one and underlies
the task of dealing with the whole in
dustrial problem But the fact that IL
is a great problem does not warrant us
in shrinking from the Attempt to solve
II. At present We face such utter lack
OF supervision, such freedom from the
restraints OF law that excellent men
have often been literally forced into do
ing what they deplored because other
WISE they were left at the mercy of un-
scrupufous competitors. To rail at and
as-ail the men who have done as they
best could under such conditions accom-
plishes little What we need to do is
The Washington times., 1905-12-05

In nv annual message 10 the Fifty
seventh Congress. at its second session,
recommended the passage of an en-
pIoyers liability law for the District of
Columbia and in our navy yards.
I renewed that recommendation in my
message to the Fffty-eighth Congress,
AT its second session. and further sUg-
gested the appointment Of commission
10 make q comprehensive study Of en-
pIoyers' liability. with a view to the
enactment cf n wise and constitutional
Law covering the subject applicable 10
all industries within the scope Of the
Federal power. | hope that such law
will be prepared and enacted a : speedily
as possible.
The National Government has as a
rule but little occasion to deal with the
formidable group OF problems connected
more or less directly with what is
known as the labor question. for in the
great majority Of cases these problems
must be dealt with by the State and
municipal authorities. and not by the
National Government.
Make Washington a Model.
The National Government has control
OF the District OF Columbia, however.
Washington * made a model city in
all respects. both as regards parks, pub
lie Fairgrounds. proper regulation of the
system Of housing so as to do away with
the evils Of alley tenements, a proper
system of education, a proper system
OF dealing with truancy and Juvenile Of
tenders. a proper handling OF the charit-
able work CT the District. Moreover.
there should be proper factory laws 10
prevent all abuses in the employment OF
women and children in the District.
These will be useful chiefly as object
lessons. hut even this limited amount OF
usefulness would be Of real national
value.
There has been demand for deprivins
courts Of The power 10 issue injunctiors
in labor disputes Such special limita-
tiou Of the equity powers OF our courts
y ould he most UnwiSe.
It Is true that come judges have mis-
used this power; but this does not jus
tify denial of the power any more
than an improper exercise Of the power
to call a strike by a labor leader would
Justify the denial Of the right TO strike.
The remedy is to regulate the pro-
cedure by requiring the Judge TO give
due notice 20 the adverse parties be-
fore granting the writ, the hearing to
be ex parte If the adverse party does
not appear at the time and place or
dered-
What is due notice must depend upon
the facts Of the case; il should not be
used as a pretext To permit violation
of law. or the jeops rdizing OF life or
property OF course. this would not
authorize the issuing OF restraining
order or injunction in any case in which
il is not already authorized by existing
law.

Yet. while not merely admitting. but
Insisting upon this IL is also true that
where there is no governmental restraint

and directors.

A system can only come through the
gradually increased exercise OF the right
OF efficient Government control.
Safety Appliances
In my annual message to the Fifty
eighth Congress. at its third session. 1
called attention to the necessity for leg
islation requiring the use o. block sig
nails upon railroads engaged in inter-
state commerce. The number of serious
collisions upon unlocked roads that have
occurred within the past year adds force
TO the recommendation then made
The Congress should provide, by ap-
propriate legislation. for the introduc-
tion OF block signals upon all railroads
engaged IN interstate commerce at the
earliest practicable date as measure
OF Increased safety 10 the travelling
public
Through decisions Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States and the
lower Federal courts in cases brought
before them for adjudication. the safety
appliance law has been materially
strengthened and the Government has
been enabled to secure it's effective en-
forcement In almost all cases. with the
result that the condition OF railroad
equipment throughout the country is
much improved and railroad employees
perform their duties under safer con-
ditions than heretofore
The Governments most effective aid
in arriving at this result has been its
inspection service. and that these I'm
proved conditions are not more general
is due TO the insufficient number OF in
spectors employed The inspection serv-
Ice has fully demonstrated its useful
ness. and in appropriatlng for its main
tenance the Congress should make pro-
vision for an increase in the number OF
inspectors.
Hours Of Labor.
The excessive hours of labor to which
railroad employees IN train service are
in many cases subjected Is also a mat
ter which may well engage the serious
attention of the Congress.
The strain. both mental and physical,
upon those who are engaged in thu
movement and operation OF railroad
trains under modern conditions is per-
haps. greater than that which exists
in any other industry. and IL there are
any reasons for limiting by law the hours
OF labor in any employment. they GER
talnly apply with peculiar force to the
employment OF those upon whose vigi-
lance and alertness In the performance
% their duties the safety of all who
travel BY rail depends.
