suits in experience of the adoption of
the eight-hour day in railway transpor-
tation alike for the men and for the
railroads.
Fourth, explicit approval by the con-
gress of the consideration by the inter-
state commerce commission of an in
crease of freight rates to meet such ad
ditional expenditures by the railroads as
may have been rendered necessary by
the adoption of the eight-hour day and
which have not been offset by admins
trative readjustments and economies,
should the facts disclosed justify the in
crease
Fifth, an amendment of the exist
ing federal statute which provides for
the mediation, Cancellation. and arbitra-
ton of such controversies as the present
by adding to it a provision that in case
the methods of accommodation now pro-
vided for shall fail, full public inves-
tigation of the merits of every such dis
pute shall be instituted and completed
before strike or lockout may lawfully
be attempted.
"And sixth, the lodgment in the hands
of military necessity to take control Of
the railways of the country as may be
required for military use and to operate
them for military purposes, with au-
thority to draft into the military service
of the United States such train crews
and administrative officials as the cir
cumstances require for their safe and
efficient use.
"The second aud third of these recon-

acted on it established the eight-hour
in train service and it authorized the
appointment of a commission to observe
and report upon the practical results,
deeming these the measures most I'M
mediately needed; but it postponed ac-
ton upon the other suggestions until an
opportunity should be offered for a more
deliberate consideration of them.
Power of Commission To Increase
Bates Is Clear.
THE fourth recommendation | do not
deem it necessary to renew. The power
of the interstate commerce commission
to grant increase of rates on the ground
referred to is indisputably clear and a
recommendation by the congress with
regard to such matter might seem to
draw in question the scope of the COM
MISSIONS justice when there is no rea-
son to doubt either.
"The other suggestions-the increase
in the interstate commerce commission
membership and in its facilities for per-
forming its manifold duties, the pro-
vision for full public investigation and
assessment of industrial disputes and
the grant to the executive Of the power
to control and operate the railways when
necessary in time of war or other like
public necessity now very earnestly
renew.
"The necessity for such legislation is
manifest and pressing. Those who have
entrusted us with the responsibility and
duty of serving and safeguarding them
in such matters would find it hard, be-
lieve, to excuse a failure to act upon
these grave matters or any unnecessary
postponement of action upon them.

lation In Railroad Wage Fight Is Urged.
Given Interstate Railroad Commission.

In the first place, it seems to me
imperatively necessary that the earliest
possible consideration and action should
be accorded the remaining measures of
the program of settlement and regula-
ton which | had occasion to recommend
to you at the close of your last session
in view of the public dangers disclosed
by the unaccommodated difficulties which
then existed and which still unllappily
continued to exist, between the railroads
of the country and their locomotive en-
gineers, conductors and trainmen.
II then recommended.
First immediate provision for the
enlargement and administrative reor-
ganization of the interstate commerce
commission along the lines embodied in
the bill recently passed by the house of
representatives and now awaiting action
by the senate; in order that the commits
sion may be enabled to deal with the
many great and various duties which are,
with its present constitution and means
of action, practically impossible.

81 would hesitate to recommend, and
| dare say the Congress would hesitate
to act upon the suggestion should | make
it, that any man in any occupation should
be obliged by law to continue in an en-
ployment which he desired to leave.
"To pass a law which forbade or pre-
vented the individual workman to leave
his work before receiving the approval
of society in doing so would be to adopt
new principle into Our Jurisprudence
which | take it for granted we are not
prepared to introduce.
But the proposal that the operation
of the railways of the country shall not
be stopped or interrupted by the con-
certed action of organized bodies OF
men until a public investigation shall
have been instituted which shall make
the whole question at issue plain for
the Judgment of the opinion of the ma
ton is not to propose any such prln-
ciple. ,.u
1T is based upon the very different
principle that the concerted action OF
powerful bodies of men shall not be per-
mitted to stop the industrial processes
of the nation at any rate before the ma
ton shall have had an opportunity to
acquaint itself with the merits of the
case as between employe and employer,
time to form its opinion upon an i'm
partial statement of the merits and op-
portunity to consider all practicable
means of conciliation or arbitration.
81 can see nothing in that proposition
but the justifable safeguarding by. So
ciety of the necessary processes OF its
very life. There is nothing arbitrary
or unjust in it unless it be arbitrarily
and unjustly done
at can and should be done with full
and scrupulous regard for the interests
and liberties of all concerned as well
as for the permanent interests of society
itself"

= Extra PoWers to Be

Not only does the interstate COM
merce commission now find it practically
impossible, with its present membership
and organization, to perform its great
functions promptly and thoroughly, but
it is not unlikely that it may presently
be found advisable to add to its duties
still others equally heavy and exacting.
1t must first be perfected as an admin

The country cannot and should not
consent to remain any longer exposed
to profound industrial disturbances for
lack of additional means OF arbitration

easily and promptly supply.
"And all will agree that there must
be no doubt as to the power of the ex-
ecutive to make immediate and uninter-
rupted use of the railroads for the con-
centration of the military forces of the

There is a program of regulation,
