worrying with the bill the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen officials
were framing Just exactly what the
trainmen wanted. This bill will be
introduced in the house by Represen-
tative Clark. and will doubtless be
known as the full crew bill" The
Sink bill is popularity known as "the
long train BILL
The Brotherhood men are asking
that the railroads be compelled to
adequately man their long trains. AS
things are now, a freight train of a
hundred or more cars is sent out with
only two b-akemen. and the men want
the protection of a f1agman on each
of these trains. They also want flag
men OIL all freight trains carrying pas.
sengers and doing local work. They
also demand two brakemen on all pas
senger trains of five cars or more,
instead Of one brakeman and a porter
as at present. This addition to the
train crews means added safety to
the employees, to the public and tc
property. The bill has been endorsed
by the representatives of the several
railroad trotherhoods and will be
pushed to the limit.

The Ringing Protest of
Lincoln Central Union

Labor Census and Industrial Stats
tics.
During the past decade Nebraska
has made giant strides in industrial
development ard the need for public
information and the safeguarding of
the workers has increased in proper
ton. AS workers we insist that it is
our right to have our lives protected
by the enforcement of fire escape and
sanitary laws; as parents we insist
upon the enforcement of the law pro-
tecting our children from industrial
exploitation, and as citizens anxious
for the best there is in American citi-
zenship we insist upon the thorough
enforcement of the female employ
ment, the compulsory education and
the juvenile court laws. These are
matters that are within the domain
of the Bureau of Labor Census and
Industrial Statistics. and we therefore
believe that the bureau should be
amply provided for financially. There
fore, be it

Third, it was probably inaugurated
cause the early Christianes believed
that Christ was soon to return and
that with His coming there would
come the lend of the world" and a
great change in the social order.
Fourth, the result of the plan was
such that it pauperized the Jerusalem
church and made it a great burden
upon the weak churches elsewhere
The apostles were often called upon
to take up special offerings for the
church at Jerusalem.
Fifth, the plan was complete
failure and was soon discontinued.
Some socialist writer's insist tina
there were common" tables through
out the early Christian church, but
what was thus referred to is undoubt-
edly what we know today as the
Communion Table" service which
was made much more of by the early
Christians than is the practice in our
time
That there was a great generosity
during this period is very true. It
was this spirit which made a marked
impression upon the enemies of the
church. But the generosity of the
Jerusalem church in this particular
was in many respects a great blunder
There was not enough regard for the
fundamental principles of social life
upon which society must permanently
rest. The spirit of brotherhood mani
tested was admirable, but the prac-
tice as permanent principle was
such that no community could today
long survive as a progressive force
in human society, were it to adopt
the economic system which failed so
completely even under the favorable
conditions found among these devoted
| Christian men and women
| AS already minated, the plan in
operation was not socialism at all, but
a form of communism. The amazing
thing is that many socialists will per-
sist in saying that the early church
was actually soo:alistic in it's teach
| ing and practice. But whether one
calls it socialism or communism, it is
quite evident that the entire scheme
was non-effective even under the most
favorable circumstances. 1t created
an Ananias whose name has gone
down in history &C tha cynonvp, for
liar. Even the comparatively ideal
conditions and spirit by which this
man was surrounded, did not make
him the highly moral being which So

DID POWDERIY MISREPRESENT?
Former Labor Leader Said Bread Line
Provided for Buns.

A few weeks ago T. V. Powderly,
once a labor leader, but now a sal
aried employee Of the government, de-
clared that the famous bread line"
in New York City merely provided for
lot of buns and men who were
afraid to look for work. He expressed
the conviction that it should be sup
pressed.
Now, did Powderly know what he
was talking about or did he mis-
represent the facts in order to bolster
up his employers claims of "un-
bounded prosperity" What are the
facts? et4
Every night the bread line" aver
ages about 5000 men. Last week a
heavy snow fell in New York City
and there was a great demand for
men to shovel IL. That night the
bread line held less than 600 men.
The other 2,4O0 found a few hours
work at 25 cents an hour shovelling
snow, and the work enabled them to
buy "A substantial meal or two and
secure a comfortable bed for night
or two. .'
1t looks like T. V. Poverty was
overly anxious to make good with
the men who got him his soft job.
