AN ADVERSE DECISION

Washington, Feb. "a case before
the New Jersey Court of Errors and
Appeals has just been decided lad-
versely to the workmen. Where a
common carrier engaged in interstate
commerce purchased certain rails,
and after their arrival at destination
caused them to be moved to the
place where they were to be laid and
employed persons to unload = a
cars, and one of those so ~
ed was injured by the dropping of
one of the rails on his foot through
the negligence of his fellow employees,
the New Jersey Court Of Errors and
Appeals held (Pierson VS.. New York,
Susquehanna and Western Railroad
Company that the service in which
the injured man was engaged was not
work done in interstate commerce,
and therefore that he could not recov.
er under the Federal employers liza

THE ACE OF REASON
By J. w. Bennett.


No, brother, this is not the age OF
reason.
1t is not reason when men, women
and children are crushed under the
weight and power of sueful, consum-
able things of their own make.
This is the age when steel and oil
and beef and railroads rule: and
these things do not reason.
In private hands they corrupt and
debauch their possessors and debase
and brutalize the workers.
No heights of human perfection can
be reached under the rule of com.
modities. Man must become master
of his own fate by gaining control OF
the massive productive forces of his
own creation. Then the age of reason
will have .dawned for all.
