RAILROAD COMMISSION Is
 OUT OF FUNDS

The appropriation for railroad con structlon Is now what the Eskimos call peluk, and the Gateway today re- ceived information that the employees of the commission at Anchorage have been reduced to what might be called the operating staff. Reductions in the force, both there and here have been going on for some time, and at least one or two of the clerical force in the Seward offices were temper arily laid off in the past few days. It is feared that other reductions may be found necessary unless an emer- gency appropriation is put through. Mir. Weir, the engineer in charge, stated today that he knows no more about an emergency appropriation than any of the rest of us, but he knew MT. Edes was due in Washing ton this week, and from this remark 1t was gathered that he believed the arrival of the chairman of the com mission will be awaited at the na- tional capital before anything can be done, although MT. Weir did not say so in so many words.
 However, from other sources it Is learned that the funds in the posses sion of the commission now can hard ly be called more than a few colOrs In the bottom of the pan.--Seward Gateway.

the most formal manner all these rum RS:
First-Conoerning the arrival In Sofia
Of German officers who are alleged to be
taking q hand In the administration OF
the railroads OF the command Of the
army.
Second-Concerning alleged statements
OF Premier Radoslavoff that as long as
the war lasts, Bulgaria will receive reg
ularly from Germany 5O.0O0.OOO francs

Third-Concerning numerous arrests.
which are said to have been caused by
internal disturbances.

Morrison Declares
Rockefeller's Plan
Not Thing at ALI

WASHINGTON, Oct. I. - Secretary
Frank Morrison OF the American Fedora
ton OF Laborstoday made this statement
commenting upon the announcement OF
the Colorado Fuel and Iron compeny's
plan for dealing with It's employees:
mr.. RockefeIier's plan IL significant,
In his alleged collective Bargaining plan
he yields more than any other employer
hostile 10 the trade union movement.
Great corporations have been using every
device that can be conceived by their
ablest representatives 90 prevent employees
from organising into trade unions. r.
nanced and controlled BY the workers.
Mr. Rockefeller says he acknowledges
the principle of collective, bargaining-
and to enforce his conception OF this
theory creates a union and evolves a
comprehensive pl~n that. the press states,
IL financed BY the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company Wa are told thess workers
will be permitted 10 present their grisy-
ances.' eap hsse ,ss.s \
Organised WORKERS present their griev-
ances through the power OF their eco
nomic organization. They enforce their
rights to have q voice In the disposal Of
their labor power. Mr.. Rockefellers plan
PfoNldcs tAab WoAhtfn Will W
20 present grievances. II one diaseets
this theory he secs that the power that
permits can also withdraw at any time
Il elects.
Herein is the fundamental difference
between the Rockefeller plan and that
OF the trade unions. One develops inde-
pendence. the other, relies on the gracious
ness and good will Of the employer. There
can be no compounds between the two
theories. for II workingmen are to be
really free. their right 20 regulate their
own lives must be acknowledged.
Mr.. Rockefeller's welfare plan con-
tains nothing new--lt Is only a repetition
Of efforts made by employers 70 keep
their workmen Satisfied. Lam sure that

pared by Mr.. Rockefeller faT his employees
