SOMETHING TO HIM

FRANCIS G NEWLANDS Is n
Of the even men now sitting in the
United State Senate who hailed
originally from Mississippi.
Likewise he is becoming year by
year, more generally recognized as
among the half dozen clearcst
visioned. broadest intentioned
members of the upper house.
He is no single purposed individ-
ual, obsessed by a particular hobby
This is true despite the fact that
for ten years his hardest work has
been toward ~arousing national SEN
timcnt for a system of internal i'm
provement and conservation, con
trolled by the federal government,
comprehensive and all embracing
extending. from boundary to
boundary.
This thought is suggested by the
two places in the news of the week
taken by Senator Newlands. He
is the sponsor for the Ncwlands
bill for the establishment of the
Board Of River Regulation, en-
dorsed by the experts of the Fed
eral government, and to be adopt
ed as the administration method of
dealing with the flood, conservation
and navigation problem. This
measure, finally amended, was in
troduced Monday.
On Tuesday comes the news that
his amendment TO the Erdman ar
bitration law has been fixed upon
by labor representatives, railroad
managers. House and Senate lead
ers, and the President, as the net
which, when passed as an urgency
measure will afford the machinery
whereby can be obviated what would
be the most disastrous railroad
strike in American railroad history.
One hundred thousand conduct
ors and trainmen on Eastern rail.
roads are demanding increases in
wages equivalent to SIT, 900. 900.
The railroad managers declare the
demands are impossible Of payment
without crippling the roads and
jeopardiziDg their securities. The
trainmen point to the increased
cost Of living on the one hand, and
~cxtraVagant and inefficient railway
management on the other, as JUST.
fication for their demands.
Mr. Newlands bill for the rivers
has been agreed upon as the way
to solution of the river problem.
And Mr. Ncwlands's bill TO amend
the Erdman arbitration act has
been agreed upon rs the way to
have settled amicably threatened
great labor war.
Either achievement would have
been enough to have made one
mans life worth while.--New Or
