RAILROAD STRIKE
BARELY AVERTED

WASHINGTON, D. c. Special
The most important American labor
dispute submitted since the anthra-
cite strike in 1902 has just been
terminated by the award and report
of the board OF arbitration intrusted
with the settlement of the contro-
versy between fifty-twc Eastern
roads and the $4,000 engineers in
their employ.
The award, which is considered a
partial victory for the engineers in
their controversy, begun last Janu~
airy, was announced here Saturday,
ana grants certain increased compen-
sation and improved and uniform
rules of service requested by the
engineers but HOLDS that general
increase of wages on all roads is not
warranted upon the basis Of the evil
dence presented.
The board found that on some
roads and for certain classes OF SER
vice the compensation was toe small.
and therefore introduced into the
award the principle OF a minimum
wage for the entire district. The
award dates back to May 1st last and
VIII stand for one year.
Wage Commissions Suggested.
In its report the board suggests the
creation OF Federal and State wage
commissions, which shall exercise
functions regarding labor engaged
upon public utilities analogous to
fthose exercised with regard TO capital
by the public service commissions al
tive OF the engineers on the board. p.
II. Morrissey, dissented from this
suggestion, which, he SAID, in it's ef-
feet virtually meant compulsory arbi-
tration and was wholly inpracticable.

FORDEM.
SAYS HEARST
Democratic Editor Believes In
Protective Tariff

w. r. Hearst in London paper.
You people in England are ar.
dent admirers of Mr.. Wilson because
of his free trade views and because
you think that the policy of tree
trade on the part of the United
States will benefit England. | do
not think that a policy of free trade
will be permitted by the American
people.
Il am supporting the Democracy
in this campaign, but politics in the
United States are IN such a trans
itional period that the word Demo-
crat or Republican does not definite
ly fix any particular principles;
and | reserve the right of my own
opinion as to what constitutes true
Democratic tenets and proper pro.
gressive principles.
II do not approve of Mr.. Wilson'S
policy of a tariff for revenue only,
nor do | think that he improves his
position when he declares in support
of gradual reduction of the tariff.
A gradual reduction of the tariff
means a continual reduction of the
tariff and the continual disturbance
of the tariff means a continual dis
turbance of business.
1T would be much better for
Democrats to adopt a very definate
tariff programme, and then. if elect.
ed, carry out exactly that tariff pro.
gramme, and thereafter allow bust.
ness to proceed in confidence and Sc.
curity and with a thorough know.
lejgeof established conditions.
There are some abuses in the
tariff which need correction. but fol-
my part believe in a proper tariff
for protection. and believe that the
growth of the unexampled prosper
ity America has been largely stimu.
lated by the principle of protection
in spite of certain abuses in the sy.
stem.
Mr.. Wilson must not be like the
dog in Aesop's fables who let go the
bone that he actually had in order
to grasp at the reflection in the wat
err. II we sacrifice any advantage
that we actually have. we must be
sure that we r going to get a cor
responding advantage inrsturn, snd
