Recognition Of Union.

- 40 SeoeSN ShoS Tic Sohpduy dP-
parent willingness to recognize the
street car mems union and to put
into effect a system of collective bar
gaining through a recognized COM
mittee named by the union, after
having reiterated as recently as
this week its refusal to accord
such recognition, is part of the
general plan for putting the COM
pany on a better financial basis.
Recognition of the union, it is stated,
is expected to go a long way toward
stabilizing working conditions on the
entire system, eliminating antago-
nistic feeling on the part of the en-
ployes and bringing about better
service conditions.
The Public Utilities Commission, 1t
is stated. Is by no means entirely as
sured that even a 7-cent fare, with
2-cent transfers, for the Washington
Railway and Electric Company will
prove the solution for the company's
financial troubles. It is feared that
an increase of fares may result in
such decrease of patronage that the
net increase may be wiped out by
the decrease in gross receipts from
fares and transfers. It is pointed out
that, according to reports to the COM
mission as we'll as statements Of on
cials Of the street railway system,
establishment of tho charge Of 2
cents for transfers has resulted In q
marked drop in the number Of pas
sengers riding on transfers, so that
the financial relief that was expected
from this source has in part failed
to materializc. .N

Boys and Girls Skate
For the Fun of 1t

Naturally they want the skate
that will permit them to have the
most fun. That means Wins

with strong frame, and the wheels
have self-contained ball-bearings,
which means that the ball-bear-
ings can't drop out. Don't over
look the fact, either, that the
bali-bearings and the manner in
which they are put in the skate

Litigation Might Follow.

Should the Public Utilities Commission
order an increase of fares for one sys-
tenn and not for the other. it is stated,
litigation may be expected at once, the
courts being called on to decide whether
or not two rates of fare for street car
service may legally be established in the
District, without regard to alleged
necessities of either company in the
matter Of increased revenues.
1t is understood the Public Utilities
Commission will do it's utmost in the
public interest to avoid a receiver
ship for the Washington Railway and
Electric-Company. This attitude on
the part of the commission has been
apparent for many months. being due
to the fear of wholly disorganized
service on the company's lines, which,
low receivership, and consequent
casting adrift of the various lines
composing the system.

appropriate stunts were INDUCED in.
Just at dusk the camp fires were
lighted and everyone enjoyed the
roast wienies, sandwiches, pickles,

After lunch more games were played
until every one had played to their
hearts content, then a number of
songs were sung and prayer offered
before returning home.
The affair was thoroughly enjoyed

NEW WORKING" WITH THE
SOLDIERS
(By Mrs. W. Y. Morgan)
New York City, April 20.

New YORK City, April ~.
New York today is in fervered
state of expectant welcome.
One has only to touch foot on the
ground here to feel and see it.
The war brought about this great
miracle, as it has woven the spell one
way and another everywhere in
America, the more noticeable in New
York, for the change is more marked.
Until much more than money was
asked Of this great place It strobe
along with hard, grasping air of
self-assurance and extravaganza. But
when the precious gift of men was
demanded, New York like every
where else in America melted; melted
for two whole years, until today, this
is the most sentimental, emotional,
demonstrative place on the globe.
Why? Because the great gift that
was asked has either gone never to
return, or is coming home again.
The greatest offering America ever
gave to an unselfish ideal pours back
from bloodshed, from suffering, from
triumph and is met by this changed
New York,-which receives it with
outstretched welcome that is sublime
to see for it is so genuine.
Transports are landing all the time.
The soldiers are everywhere. Their
joy of returning is no less than the
welcome that awaits them, and the
combination produces an intoxication
of emotion that is irresistible.
/ have talked to countless returned
soldiers-they are so happy to get
