The Presidents Usurpation

Why should the President insist upon
doubtful, unnecessary and un-Democratic
things? This shipping bill is not in any
sense vital 1t is SOcialstic in its tendencies;
ii has not been demanded by any considerable
number OF people; II is designed to relieve a
manufactured emergency; yet the President
fights for ii just as II there was some great
principle involved in 1t and as II without 1t
the prosperity OF the country would be utterly
destroyed. He has done many good things
for which he Is commended of all men He
could rest his case on the new currency sys-
tenn which John Joy Edison, one OF the high
financial lights in this community, declared
last Saturday night would give the United
States the greatest financial system the
world has ever known, but he insists upon
doing things that are unnecessary and of
doubtful expediency. IL not utterly indefen-
sible.
The pundits say that there win be a dehcit
of something like $50, 100000 at the close OF
the present fiscal year, and this in spite OF
the fact that We have war tax, an income
tax, a corporation tax and greatly increased
revenue from internal taxation. How much
better II would have been had the President
not insisted upon free sugar, which gave US
a rather steady revenue OF about s50,ooO,O00
annually, and had ne regarded the suggestion
OF Oscar Underwood that this sugar tax
should be retained, and that a small duty ON
wool would be OF advantage TO the Govern
ment. And how much better would Il have
been If Mr. Underwood had insisted upon his
views on these matters instead Of yielding "a
the Presidents opinions on the ground that
this Is Mr. wilson's Administration

TROLLEY SITUATION OEADL OCKED
Committee From Union Gives President Perkins Notice That Mems Vote is in Favor of Strke-shore Line Elecrcs Presidents Answer That Road Has Offered the Best =. Wage Schedule It Can Afford.

That the trolley s1notoruaen and con- ductors who belong to the trolleymen's S union on the Shore Line Electric Railway system had voted in favor of a strike was the notice given to Pres ident Robert w.. Perkins of the Shore Line Road at the meeting held Mon day afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Greeneville trolley barn.
 The meeting was a brief one. The committee of eighteen or twenty men met President Perkins and Superin- tendent Samuel Anderson and stated to them that the poll of the union men on all the divisions of the system had been such as to authorize the calling of a strike if the committee and of- ficers felt that move ought to be taken. They did not tell the trolley officials what theshgures on the vote had been.
 President Perkins was asked if the road had any change to make in it's last answer to the request of the un- ion men for the increased wage sche- dule submitted by the men.
 The answer of the president was such as; to indicate that the road had reached it's limit in what it could af- ford to pay in wages. The conference closed and the committee withdrew, leaving the situation at a, deadlock.
 The negotiations brought about by the request of the trolleymen for. an increase in pay have been underway about a month. Last September they were given a raise in the wage sche dule on an agreement which was to date back to the preceding June and

to run for a year, expiring the first ct this June.
 After the negotiations had been op ened this June, the company offered to continue the old schedule or to put new wage schedule into force which is an increase in the wages Of .054 of a cent in an hour, but this the motornaen and conductors >have declined to agree to.
 At the present time all the regular men on the road have steady work and average from SIS to $20 or $21 week. In the course of the negoti- ations the, company officials have shown the trolleymen's committees that the increase in wages given last year by the company. exceeded the in crease in profits. It is the statement of trolleymen, who, however, decline to be quoted that there is much di- vision of sentimentI among the motor men and conductors over the strike vote and that some of the older men are in favor of sticking with the com pany and have torn up their union cards and thrown away their union buttons since the negotiations were started.
 J. H. Reardon of Worcester, an of f1cial of the trolleymen's union came here on Monday and was in confer ence with the local committee. It is understood that he is an officer who has conducted strikes where such a move has been ordered.
 Should a strike be ordered about 400 men will be affected.
