DAVIS, the general superintendent
of Transportation of the N. 0. G. N.
railroad, before a crowd at the
Chamber of Commerce at New Or
leans. The address was the hit of
the big meeting and Mr.. Davis prov
ed a master of the art and was in
competition with some of the best
speakers of the Crescent City.
Inasmuch as a railroad is con-
s ructed for the sole purpose o.
handling the traffic Of commerce, a
railroad man should never refuse an
invitation to confer with or address
the members of an Association Of
Commerce. The men interested in
these associations are the fellows
who produce business, the railroad
men are the fellows who move it
for them, therefore, the thing they
have in common is one of the big
gest problems known, and the
oftener they get together and hear
each others side of the story, the
better will be their understanding
of the entire problem, and we all
know that complete understanding
is necessary to succeed in any line
Of business.
Much has been said about the
railroads in the recent past, and l
always try to keep away from that
subject; however, it is necessary to
touch lightly upon it tonight to bring
out point in mind.
When criticism is hurled at THE
there is often ques-
ton as to just whom it is directed.
The financiers; the stockholders; or,
the railroad men. Financiers are
very necessary, especially in big
undertakings we can't get any
where without them, and even if a
few have done wrong, it is no reason
why they should all be prosecuted.
There is much difference between a
and a railroad man. One
makes the railroad possible, the
other works for the company after
it is a going concern. A financier
is not a railroad man; for the simple
reas n he doesn't have to be. A
railroad man is not a financier; only
because he does not know how to
be. There are many people who
seem to think railroad men own the
railroads, and it is a common and
serious error. For example, the
standard railroad of America is the
Pennsylvania. | know positively
that some of its higher officers are
rich, yet statistics show that all the
directors, officers, and 10000 en-
ployes Of that road own only one
share in every twenty shares of its
stock.
When everybody concerned comes
to understand that one eighth of all
railroad securities are held by in
surance companies and savings
banks and that enc out of every
three people met is a holder of a
policy or has a deposit in one of
those institution and is, therefore,
personally interested in the value
of those securities, it will make some
difference. Because the stockholders
are the ones who are always injured
financially when anything is done
to reduce the earning power of a
corporation. When shares of stock
are bought in good faith no one can
justly criticize the buyer, nor can
they justly criticize the men who
strive to protect the interests of
those buyers.
The public generally has conf
dence in railroad men. In fact,
more confidence than in any other
organization on earth. 1t is demon
strated every day we live. Presum-
ing a trip had been decided upon,

RAILROADS AND THE PUBLIC
BY JOHN L. DAVIS

before, be directed to the car by a
man he never saw before, leave
enter his mind to ask questions
about them. They are railroad
men.
The train starts out on its all
night run, over a track that ne
knows nothing about and it runs
fifty or sixty miles per hour thru fog,
wind, rain, sleet snow or whatever
the elements may provide, speeding
thru tunnels and dense forest, over
high bridges, crossings, networks of
frogs and switches where the least
little thing, if not in proper place or
conditions would cause a catastrop-
he. Yet, there is no fear, railroad
men are on guard. The train stops
in dense thicket in the dead of
night for some unexpected reason
and is delayed unavoidably while
the family sleeps and knows nothing
Of the surroundings. If in hotel
surrounded by a blaze of electric
light, the room doors would be care
fully locked, yet in theheart Of the for
est, miles from a house, in the dead
of night with perfectly strange men,
there is no locked door on the train,
only a light drapery to give privacy.
They need nothing more; they have
the protection Of railroad men. |
can think of no greater evidence of
implicit confdene. No one outside
of the railroad organization can
understand how many things there
are that can 90 wrong Unexpectedly
and retard the movement of traffic.
On busy roads the train movements
are frequent, and the denser the
traffic the greater the chance of &C.
cident or delay. Passengers, natur-
ally, think only of the train they
are on; there are many other trains
that some one must think of and
that some one is the train dispatch
er. The train dispatcher must think
and have complete control of them
all. He is the man who holds the
reins. For instance if No.. 6 is
delayed so minutes for any reason
and happens to be train of superior
right or class, he must give No., 6
all order to run so minutes late and
and see that all inferior trains have
that order to enable them to adj
vance as far as possible for their
meeting or passing points The ope-
rators must make quick deliveries
of the orders to passing trains and
keep the dispatcher fully advised of
the movements at or near their re-
spective stations. Trains must
move regardless of weather condi-
tons, and every man must be in
his place and follow his prescribed
duties day. or night, rain Or shine,
and we know that such roads as
the Burlington, Pennsylvania, North
western, Illinois Central, and many
others, some Of them carrying pos
sibly 25,000,000 passengers in a
year, do it without single fatality,
there is good evidence that railroad
men perform their duties intelligent
ly and faithfully. Yet the only
thought want to leave in your
minds tonight is this: Men who
work during the night must sleep
during the day. Anyone who has
never been regularly assigned to
night duty for months or years
hasn't the faintest idea of the tor
lures that 60 with it on account of
unnecessary noise. | have no
thought of the people who sleep
during the night; if they are dis
turbed they can 60 back to sleep;

SPECIAL FAvURS TO
TENNESSEE GAMERS
Amendment to Child Labor Law
Passed This Year.
NEED FOR A FEDERAL LAW.

< An effort made In New York last
winter to grant canneries special fc-
vors by permitting them to work their
operatives longer hours was strongly
condemned by the press throughout the
country, and the attempt failed But
no attention was paid TO Tennessee
when she did the same thing at about
the same time In fact, the National
Child Labor Committee regards the
Tennessee amendment as far more Sc
rious than the New York one would
have been since the change in the New
York law would not have affected any
children under sixteen, while the Ten
nessee amendment permits children un-
der fourteen to work in canneries and
for unlimited hours per day.
1T is strange how many states fail to
realize that children are move vcluablc
than fruits and Vegetables" said Owen
r.. Lovejoy, general secretary Of the
National Child Labor Committee, In
commenting on Tennessee's action
.The idea Is so common that canning
goods is more important than protect
ing children that we find not only Ten
nessee, but Delaware, Maryland, In
diana. Maine and Virginia. making spe-
cial exemptions to their child labor
laws for the benefit of canneries, while
Mississippi does not regulate them at
all. i do not know why the idea should
prevail that employment in canneries
cannot possibly be harmful to children
when the conditions there are usually
worse than in factories.
I'VE feel that the only successful
way to meet the cannery situation is
through the federal law which will be
introduced in the next congress and
which, If passed. would prohibit the
shipment outside the state of canned
goods which children under fourteen
had helped to manufacture or on which
they had worked more than eight hours
day. A letter came to us the other
day from a woman who wished to
know what variety of canned goods she
could buy and feel sure that no chill
dren had worked on it. We could not
tell her, but we did tell her that If she
would help US in passing federal law
she could buy any kind Of canned
goods with safety"

have failed to reveal a single night
messenger whose work had not brought
him into personal contact with vice.
The chances of promotion in the
messenger service We're summed up by
one boy as follows: Nothing to it un-
less you are the right kind OF guy.
You can get to be a check boy or file
clerk after being In the service a year
or two If you stick to 1t, but ordinarily
nobody wants to stick. *s* There is
nothing to do when we're not on calls.
You can go into the office and sit down
and loaf, or you can go outside and
stand up and loaf. In our office the
manager never cared what became Of
you as long as you were within calling
distance"
The attitude of other employers to-
ward the boy who has worked as q
messenger was brought out last winter
by Miss Anne Davis OF Chicago at a
hearing on the proposed Illinois child
labor law, which included twenty
one year limit for night messengers.

''they always specify that boy shall
not have worked as messenger when
