Under our form Of government vot-

Legislation should be enacted at

preparation.

their rights are being invaded and
their liberty Of action and of speech

tack on the use of the process of in

mand some form of legislative ac-

for our social welfare if we should
permit many honest and lawabiding
citizens to feel that they had just
cause for regarding our courts with
hostility. I earnestly commend to
the attention Of the Congress this
matter, SO that some way may be de-
vised which will limit the abuse OF
injunctions and protect %ose rights
which from time to time it unwar-
rantably invades. Moreover, discon-
tent is often expressed with the use
Of the process Of injunction by the
courts, not only in labor disputes, but
where State laws are concerned. !

ton as I am Informed that it will
soon receive the consideration Of the
Supreme Court.
Accidents.
The loss of life and limb from rail-
road accidents in this country has
become appalling. 1t is subject Of
which the National Government
should take supervision. 1t might be
well to begin by providing for Fed
eral inspection of interstate railroads
somewhat along the lines of Federal
inspection of steamboats,, although
not going SO far.
Employers Liability.
The National Government should
be a model employer. 1t should de-
mand. the highest quality Of service
flom each Of its employees and it
should care for all Of them properly
in return. Congress should adopt
legislation providing limited but def
mite compensation for accidents to
all worlmen within the scope of the
Federal power, including employees
VI the navy yards and arsenals.
Ehe constitutionality Of the en-
,loyers'- liability act passed by the
preceding Congress has been carried
before the courts. In, two jrdisdic-
lions the law has been declared un-
constitutional, and in three jurisdic-
lions its constitutionality has been
affirmed.
Eight-Hour Law.
The Congress should consider the
extension of the eight-hour law. The
constitutionality of the present law
has recently been called into quest
ion and the Supreme Court has decid-
ed that the existing legislation is un-
qucstionably within the powers Of
Congress. The principal of the eight
hour day should as rapidly and as
far as practicable be extended to the
entire work carried on by the Gov
ernment; and the present law should
be amended to embrace contracts on
