farmers are interested in proposal
to form an organization through
which they will be able to deal more
directly with consumers, save the
profits of middle men and reduce
the cost of high living. 1t Is esti
mated that the farmer gets less than

The Railroad Situation.

There is no disposition on the part
of the railroad employees who are
seeking higher wages and better
labor conditions to rush matters.
Their representatives are discussing
quietly with the representatives of
the roads and questions at issue. As
neither side wants war and as each
probably is prepared to concede
something when it comes to pinch
the conferences now being held
should have a satisfactory ending.
The railroads assuredcly do not
want a srtike. They understand the
extent TO which it would interfere
with the discharge of their duties
to the public. Compliance with the
wage demands might not cost so
much as the loss of revenue which a
strike lasting anytime might entail
The fact that the employees are
moving slowly and deliberately IS
good evidence that they know what
strike would mean. Their officers,
mostly old and experienced men,
know that this is not the time TO " in
an easy victory by quitting work.
The fact that the railroads of this
country have laid of SO, 600 men in
year shows that there is a great
volume Of unemployed railroad labor
which the roads could draw on.
When there are so many lay offs the
man who can keep his job and old
wages is not so badly off.
1t cannot be unknown to railroad
employees that while the wages OF
men in many industries were reduced
after the panic of 1907, theirs wa:
not. Since then there have been
general cncreases. The roads have
not Jared well. They have not been
allowed to raise rates aud have bad
to submit TO cuts. SO this is hardly
the time for employees to insist per
emptorIly on material concessions.
If they were working for a manu-.
factoring company they would not.
The fact that tins Is such an un'
proditious time for $ r.ke is strons
reason for believing that there vii
not be one. There are Other
reasons, among them the good
temper and willingness to meet anc
discuss Of both sides.
