it difficult to organize. We know the
benefits Of our own organization to
the public service, in securing full
all along the line, between manage
ment and employees. We would never
submit to the dictation Of any auto

we have built up for the service Of the

of our own members. Such a spirit

Mr.. Wills is not an agitator. He
described the good feeling which has
been maintained, through the years,
on many Of the roads, between the
brotherhoods and the managers, SIM
ply because they tried to understand
one another. He believes that the
United States is to see great new
development of that spirit in indus
trial relations, and he thinks that as
a result the efficiency of American
industry is going to be noticeably in
creased.
Mr.. Garrison, in an interview here,
expressed his pleasure that the rail-
roads were at last in public hands. He
indicated that he expected to see COM
plete Government ownership as the
outcome Of the step already taken.
In this connection the sudden con-
version of members Of Congress, Of
editors of conservative papers, and Of
all kinds Of public officials in WASH
ingt0n, to the idea of Government
ownership. is one Of the marvels Of
this season of surprises. A year ago
the average official opinion in the ma
tional capital followed the opinion of
the reactionary local press and the
reactionary element in congress, which
opinion was that the railroad brother
hoods had been insolent in "holding
a gun to the head of the Government
in the eight-hour dispute. Everybody
wanted the brotherhoods punished, in
some vague way, and the private
owners Of the roads given full protec-
ton from future "hold-ups." The at
torney for the railroads, arguing
against the Adamson law before the
supreme court, denounced the men as
"bandits," and pointed to the dan
ger" Of public ownership if the eight
hour law were forced upon the COM
panies.
Now, everyone wants the private
owners to get out Of the way and keep
still until their money is handed to
them. Everyone is saying that public

people who live along the way really
know about the roads or how to give
directions that can be followed. But
we got along fine by stopping fre
quently to enquire.
The road from three miles above
Union to Broad River is fine, though
little narrow like most of our roads,
but it is smooth and there was easy
travelling. The people were very
kind and courteous and yet there was
one strange thing to me, we met prac-
tically no one from the time we left
Newberry until our arrival at York
Vile, and we passed only one. There
was not much travel and there SEEM

While you had that feeling that
you were long ways from anywhere
because / reckon we were away from
the railroad, yet this is fine country
and there are many good and modern
country homes all along, and the
land seems productive and the crops
are good and in fine condition. There
is an air of prosperity. The cotton
was particularly good and the corn
had good color and all the crops
were free from grass and showed fine
cultivation. This was true until we
got within 10 or II niles Of York

cross the river you are in York. An
other thing that impressed the tray
eler was the fact that nearly every
country home along the road had q
