would make labor's share of the gross
income of the railroads approximately
80 per cent. The actual owners. of
the roads. the stockholders, get less
than 6 cents from every dollar paid
by passenger or shipper
II is quite obvious that the rail-
roads cannot afford to pay out more
money under the present revenues,
especially as dividends to investors
are being paid in many cases and in
other cases the dividend is too small
to invite the investment of capital
Sooner OF later the Interstate Com
merce Commission will have to take
cognizance of the situation when an
appeal for higher freight and pas
senger rates is made The shipper
and passenger, the public itself final
ly must bear the burden.
In a situation of this kind. where
the operation Of public utilities is
concerned, the public itself has vital
interest, and this interest can only
be protected by arbitration II is
taken for granted that the men will
vote in favor of making the demands
for higher wages. If they have a
meritorious case. they surely can have
no objection to the arbitration Of the
dispute.

Darently a genuine check, the bank

Therefore, be careful to draw your
checks properly; (c) To pay to the
party TO whom you ordered the
amount paid and none other. If the
check gets into the hands OF stran-
gers who forge the Endorsement, so
that the party TO whom you ordered
the money paid does not get it, the
payment is at its risk, and you are
harmless.
All this is ultimately for your good
as a depositor. You know that your
account cannot be drawn against eX-
cept on your order You know that
the party you want to receive pay
ment gets it. You get back the most
perfect voucher known to the bust

settled and loss and law suit avoided
by producing bank vouchers that told
in no uncertain way that payment had
been made according to the intent Of

good, you ought TO keep your money
in a bank. and draw it out by check.
