bility of uniting all such associations
under a single body. Such union has
been the aim of the Order of Railroad
station Agents for several years. and
Earl NJ Morton. president of that order,

Among the larger organizations
represented are the American fedora

dispatchers. the brotherhood Of tower
men and signalmen, the sleeping car
conductors, the dining car conductors,
railroad telegraph dispatchers and
agents. and the association of ticket
sellers.
At least two representatives from
every organization are present and
the discussion is expected to last at
least two days. and possibly most of
the week. Each delegation will later
report to its own organization at
subsequent national conventions and
if the tentative plans are approved
the affiliation of every branch of or
ganized labor connected with railroad
transportation will follow.

altruistic. Partisan politicians may as

this is idealism run mad-a gyro-

men to give a false impression OF

that which Isaiah predicted. Wash
