assertion in an address at Ohicsgo yesterD

100 msny physicians. While Europe
maintains the proportion of one physi-

Labor Minister Believes
Strike Will Be Ended

MONTREAL, July 23.-Mackenzie
King, minister of labor, Is confident
today the minor points Of difference
between the Grand Trunk and its strik'
ing employees will be eliminated so
that his proposed plan of arbitration
can be worked out. Both the men
and the company say they are willing
to arbitrate. The company asks that
the committee be made up Of men ac-
quainted with the details Of the rail-
way business. The company, however,
refuses to accept p. II. Morrissey or
+. r. Clark as members of the board,
not because they are Americans. but
because both were prominent In fixing
UP the New York Central schedule,
which Is practically the same as that
which the Grand Trunk refuses to pay.
Vice-President Murdoch, of the train
men, says he will submit the mems
side OF the controversy to a board
mutually acceptable" but up to the
present has insisted that Morrissey
and Clark should be accepted by the
company. II Is the plan of Minister
King to try and get both the COM
pany and the men to submit lists OF
men whom they would be willing to
have arbitrate the dispute and from
these lists select three satisfactory to
both sides.

Now for the privilege OF taking that

Wabash official pays 80 a year for

man. That Is a fair sample OF the
way the railway employees OF the Wa
bash are paid in Canada for positions
OF trust and responsibility.
1.-The same pay Is, Of course. given
by the Grand Trunk, for the schedule
OF the Wabash Is the same in Canada
as that OF the Grand Trunk through
out Canada and the United States. A
man digging In the streets gets almost
as much pay and has no responsibility
at all. The railroads ought TO be
ashamed TO let the public know that
they are paying such salaries. But We
want the public TO know Just what
treatment Is being accorded the train
men. The conductors and brakemen
on the Wabash, OF which am one. get
ridiculously low pay for the work and
time they put in and the responsible
ity they carry.
"A conductor, for instance, running
between Windsor and the Falls, draws
SO for two days and nights and pays
his own board while he Is away. That's
no pay for trainmen. the way things
