u Growing.
BY cHAs. W. GRoaT.

WASHINGTON. Sept 5.---Govern-
ment ownership of railways and 9TH
er public utilities Is coming. In the
opinion of A. u. Garretson, leader
OF the four brotherhoods In their
fight for an eight-hour day.
Avoidance of the strike through
government interference Is only one
of series of steps to such an end.
''Ten years hence" said Garrett
son, will see mighty stride toward
government ownership and operation
OF all the railways in the country
as we'll as other public utilities. |
believe In such program after ma
ture reflection. Also I have decided
views as to the dangers in govern
ment ownership. but sentiment In
that direction is steadily growing.
The settlement of the strike was
Just another course in the struc-
ture."
Garretson explained that some OF
the roads might try to create a bal
ance on the wrong side of the led
ger as a result of government regu-
lation.
Commenting on Garretson's inter
view ore of ahe foremost experts
said:
His statement that the settlement
OF the strike was one of the courses
of the structure is mild. II appears
that this about completes the whole
structure. II certainly brought the
situation ten years nearer to reali-
zation."

And fill thy life with all good cheer.
