The commissioners of mediation

i'm the case of the threatened

eastern states. the commission
provided for i'm the bill has been

other government officials. both

If this board of mediation fails

the railroad carriers and their.
employees to their mutual salts
faction, the railroads Will he
called upon to appoint two nrbi-
trafors. the employees two, and
these four. by a majority vote.
appoint the other two. making
n board of six in all. This board
of arbitration will hear and de-
terminc the merits of the con-
froversy.
These same methods have TO be
pursued regarding the pending
strike ON the Southern Pacific
lines. I do not know whether
the board of mediation I'm this
ease has yet been appointed. In
most cases the board of media
ton and Cancellation has settled
the controversies without resort
to arbitration. 1t has been found
Rs the result of experience, that
mediation I'm most cases accom-
pIfshes adjustment without re-
sorting to arbitration.
In the hearing before the SEN
ate committee on Interstate COM
merce, Doctor NeilI. former COM
missioner of labor, declared that
their practice was TO get the
views of both sides in the con-
troversy without communicating
the views of one side to the
other. and that by this method
Of procedure they were able to
ascertnin the matters of differ
ence and gradually reduce them
without breaking the condolences
imposed by either side.
1t was found that by pursuing
these tnctfcs the disputants were
brought together. each side being
unaware of the confidential COM
munications made to the board
by the other.
Everything depends ON the per-
sonnet of the board of mediation.
We have been fortunate thus far
