COMMERCE BODIES FAVOR

CARRY OUT PROGRAM REQUESTED
BY RAILWAY COMPANIES.
Peculiar Referendum Method Results in
Vote of os1 to 80 Affirming Post
ponement Of Eight-Hour Day.

The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States has made public the result
of its referendum on the question OF
asking congress to direct the interstate
commerce commission to investigate the
eight hour demand OF the four railroad
brotherhoods.
The referendum methods OF the cham
Der are peculiarly their own and differ
from those employed by trade unions.
The chamber appointed a committee to
consider the question of asking congress
to take action. The committee reported
favorably and the question was sub
mitted to the various affiliates, 9Sl or
ganizations voting for and thirty against
There was no attempt made to present
the negative side OF the question, or to
show that this plan means an indefinite
postponement of the employees claims.
The resolutions provide that both the
railroad managers and employees defer
pending controversies" until the inter
state commerce commission is able to
complete its investigations and make its
report-a suggestion that will be emf
nently satisfactory to the railroads, as
the commission would be instructed to
go thoroly into the question of mini
mum, maximum. and average wage paid,
with hours OF service to each class of
railroad employees in the United States,
and so far as they are comparable, the
minimum, maximum, and average with
hours of service paid in other industries
where similar skill and risk are involved,
the relation of wages to railroad reve-
nues, the question OF whether railroad
revenues based on existing rates for
transportation will admit of equally fa-
vorable terms of all classes of railroad
employees, and any other matter in this
connection that the commission may
deem relevant"

Compels Optimism

\ message Of inspiration to every SOL
dier OF the common good was that deliv-
cred recently by Dr. William T. Foster,
president of Reed College, before the Ore
gon state conference of social agencies.
lie said:
III the devoted men and women who
are laboring for the public veal will
leave the narrow confines OF their daily
life with all its petty difficulties and
seek the historical perspective, if they
will look back but few tions,
they will find that many human ills
which were once regarded as necessary
evils are now no longer tolerated. In
fact, they need carefully examine only
the record of single generation to find
that there is in reality no such thing as
a necessary evil. The history of social
progress demonstrates that whatever is
necessary for mankind is not evil and
that whatever is evil is not necessary"
This is a message which we need to
hear often. Every hard pressed fighter
to whom the struggle against poverty,
vice. disease and all the other anti-so-
cial forces at times seems vain, is heart
ened by it. 1t makes him remember that
in twenty years we have passed from
the stage in which the relief Of the
poor was the chief aim of social work
ers. to a place where we now dream Of
the abolition Of poverty A decade ago
We cared for the sick and punished the
delinquent. Today we work toward the
prevention of disease and the abolition
OF conditions which breed vice The
causes of social waste not the results,
occupy us. A review of what has been

DEATH OF LEADING OMAHA MAN.

Omaha was given shock last Satur-
day evening when news was received
that Arthur d. Brandeis died in New
York, following an operation for appen.
dicitis. First. the founder of the store
died few years ago. Then Emil went
down in the Titantic, then Hugo died
suddenly shortly afterwards, and now
Arthur is gone. When one considers that
the immense interests of this family in
Omaha were built up from half wagon
load of merchandise to their present size
in thirty-five years, some idea as to
what they accomplished can be apprecI-
ated. During all the years of their
building they never had a strike and all
their construction work was done by
union labor.-Omaha Western Laborer.

MAN is WEAKEST ANIMAL OF ALL

In proportion to size, man is one OF
the weakest animals on earth. The mus
cles OF a large sized oyster will support
a weight of thirty-seven pounds. There
is a crab that will life 492 times its own
weight This is the equivalent OF an
average sized man raising 1880 pounds.
Felix Plateau, Belgian scientist, who
made many experiments, found that the
strength OF fly which was able to lift
a match stick, compared with mans
supporting with his feet a beam four
teen feet long and two feet six inches
square.
There is little bug that can drag six
matches, equivalent to man pulling $50
beams as big as himself.
To measure the strength of insects
Plateau constructed delicate harness
to weighing machine. BY prodding the
insects he made them move. Then nhe
piled on weight until they stopped. By
this means he found that bee, weight
for weight, was thirty times as strong
as a horse.

EIGHT HOURS OR DECAY.

Eight hours work a day or the nation
will decay" exclaims the Health News
bulletin Of the City Of Cleveland.
"That might well be taken as n slogan
by workers now demanding a universal
eight hour day" says the bulletin.
Medical experts who have studied the
subject point out the dangers of long
hours. They are:
"Poisons generated by excessive fa-
tiguc.
Lowered resistance to disease germs
that invade the human body.
General weakness, anemia or prema'
ture old age.
"Then ten and twelve hour day is now
held largely responsible for the appalling
increase in the number of men who drop
out at fifty who should have at least
twenty years more Of active life"

The sea was smooth and the trip to
the islet was made swiftly. The surgeon
found the inhabitants much emaciated,
having mad nothing to subsist on for
three weeks except water and q few
fish they caught at the foot OF the
lighthouse. The wife Of one Of the
keepers had died. chiefly OF starvation,
eight days before and had been buried
at sea. The ships surgeon merely pre-
scribed food for the haggard survivors
and the boats crew began to unload

The lighthouse keepers said that the
supply boat had o been TO the forlorn
islet in four months and that they had
run completely out Of food. They still
had water. or otherwise would have
persisted. and ample oil to keep the light
burning.
When the Mexico reached Vera Cruz
she notified the officials that there were
two faithful Mexicans on duty for What.

would like to have regular meals. There
