CONGRESS AND THE
RAILROAD CONTROVERSY

On 3Jesday next congress will go
into session again. 1t is the same
congres8 that adjourned a few weeks
ago, al ec having adopted the Adam
son e~i1Dt-hour law, framed for the
specific purpose of preventing q
Threatened strike of the members of
the four railroad br~otherhoods, 400
600 of ttem.
The whole country is looking for
ward with keen anticipation to the
work of this short session, short be-
cause it cannot last longer than till
the fourth of next March, at which
time the present congressman retire
from Office and those elected at the
recent election become the repre-
~sentatives of their respective dis
tricts. The country is looking for
ward to this session because it is
expected the matter involved in the
controversy between the railroads
and the brotherhoods will be taken
up again and properly threshed out.
In his special message to congress
just before the adoption of the Adam
son law President Wilson recited a
number of things he thought should
be done, but congress did no more
tnan put into effect enough of his
recommendations to avert the threat
onp6 Ctrsr1. and taop oIi fnr
the members, a majority of them,
were anxious to get back to their
home districts to look after their
political fences.
Next week these men will be back
in Washington better prepared to act
than they were in the fact of the
threatened strike. They have not
only had more time to study the stu
alton but they have heard from their
constituents,
President Wilson in his message
will give congress the benefit of his
more recent observations and it is
safe to predict that before adjourn
ment time rolls around a more com
prehensipe law will have been draft
ed, that the kinks will have neeh
out and that what is done will be
quite satisfactory to the people.
There will be this about it, certainly,
that whatever action is taken is not
taken hurriedly and that it is not
taken with an election staring in the
face.
