UNORGANIZED MEN
OBJECT TO STRIKE
Six Thousand Rail Employees
File Petition With Congress-
men Asking for Mediation.
UNIONS ONLY ONE.FIFTH

Nashville, Tenn, Aug. "A move
ment looking to an appeal to con
gress for decisive action to prevent
strike on the railroads of the coun-
try has been inaugurated by employees
on the Nashville. Chattanooga & ST.
Louis railway. A petition signed by
o,O00 representatives OF the non-brotl-
erhood men has been signed in the
states OF Alabama, Kentucky, Geor-
gia and Tennessee. 1t sets forth that
70 per cent of the employees repre-
senting the brotherhoods should not
be allowed to throw the 80 per cent
out OF work and calls upon congress
to see that the trouble is avcrted,
Newlands Resolution Tabled.
Washington, Aug +.-The senate
commerce committee today voted to
table Senator Newlands resolution to
direct the Interstate Commerce COM
mission to investigate and report to
congress on wages and hours of scrv-
ice of each class of railroad empltScs
because action was deemed inadvis-
able pending mediation and arbitra-
ton of disputes between the rail-
roads and their employees.
| The committee took up the resolu-
ton on written request from the
chamber of commerce OF the United
States, which asked for hearings.
| 1T was determined said Chairman
Newlands, after the committee acted,
ito have. no hearings upon the sub
ject, but to lay the resolution upon
the table. The committee deemed it
inadvlsable to add to the present du-
ties of the Interstate Commerce COM
mission, which, as is we'll known, is
overloaded with work"
Letter of Brotherhoods.
The committee had before it a let
ter from the brotherhoods as fol-
lows:
THE railway managers and the rep
resentatives of the railroad organiza-
tons will confer in New York early
in August and we believe the COM
mittee on interstate commerce should
remain neutral, at least until Jointly
called upon by the national conference
committee of railway managers and
the representatives of the railway
brotherhoods, and we respectfully
suggest that course of action"

ASPIRATION GROWTH.

ASPIRATION NTltON III
Urine says: "A thought good or
evil, an act IN time, habit, so runs
LIES laws. what you live in your
thought world, that sooner or later
you will find objected in your life.
To what degree is this the case?
How seldom we can pat the debit
and credit columns side by side and
actually see how they balance. We
start out full of hope and enthusi-
asm, step by step we wend our way
through life An orderly evolution
of the soul is not as some suppose
in a straight line Of progress; rather
does IL present an ascending spiral,
extending outward and upward as il
proceeds, again and again coming
around TO the old questions of life 10
meet them on another level"
How have 1 accomplished what
set out to do?" 1 asked two friends
who came to see me the other day.
! had not seen them for many years:
and those years had been eventful
ones. full Of change. problems to
meet and settle. Those who are with
US constantly cannot judge of results
as well as some one who has not
seen the daily failures. or victories,
the optimism that has buoyed us up
or the discouragements that have
nearly swamped US. Each thing has
had a place in our embodiment.
The history Of ones life must read
something like nurses fever chart;
with relapses and gains. it has a zig
gag course while it is settling down
TO normal. The real issue of life is
made up Of opportunities TO test US,
or to exercise our sincerity, our sym
pathy, our generous desire to rise
above lower motives Of self interest,
revenge, antagonism; yet where con-
quest is only made possible by con-
sistent, unobtrusive, every day living.
according to the manner that we
meet the true issues do we advance
OF retard our spiritual life"
My friends, who had last seen me
far from home, setting and r1y ma
tive land, after the lapse of many
years recalled to my mind my aspir-
alton, what 1 wanted to accomplish.
AS judges they sat and checked off
things gained or lost. Laughingly we
recalled all 1 wanted. It's only in the
perspective that we can truly see
what we have accomplished, for the
word have" is sometimes shut off
from our vision by the much more
insignificant word haven't"
