SOME FATHERLy ADVICE
CHAIRMAN KNAPP ADDRESSES
THE RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS.
Head Of Commerce Commission Talked
on Government Mediation In
Labor Disputes.

Washington, Oct. 9.-Immediately
after the National Association OF Rail.
way Commissioners met Wednesday,
Chairman Knapp OF the Interstate
Commerce commission, delivered an
address, on government mediation in
railway labor disputes.
Il DESIRE" said Mr.. Knapp, ITO see
our railroads make earnings that will
permit them to pay adequate wages
to competent men, not only because
they deserve it, but because of the
great influence wages in public EN-.
pigments have upon wages in private
employment. That is the prosperity
which promotes the welfare and the
happiness of all the people of our
country"
Mr.. Knapp favored mediation In
labor disputes rather than any other
form of settlement, such as arbitra.
ton, because through mediation the
settlement was the result Of each side
agreeing to wages and conditions
which left a better feeling on the
part of all concerned than would be
the case in arbitration by which the
result would be in the nature Of
court decision neither side being en-
tirely satisfied.
Mr.. Knapp declared that he believed
in labor organizations. He had found
the representatives of labor organi-
cations as conciliatory in settling
labor disputes as were the representa-
tives of the railroads. The delegates
to the meeting called on the presi.
dent in a body in the afternoon.
At the afternoon session the presi.
dent was authorized to appoint com.
mittee of seven members to report
upon railway capitalization.
Col B. w. Dunn, chief inspector Of
the bureau for the safe transportation
of explosives and other dangerous
articles, delivered an address illus
trated by stereopticon views on the
necessity for uniform rules governing
the shipment Of explosives and other
articles dangerous to transport.
