.PLUMB's PLAN OPPOSES

WASHING TON, August s.-All day
long from witness chair before the
House Interstate Commerce Committee
Glenn K. Plumb. counsel for the rail-
road brotherhoods, and autho. Of or
ganized laho!'s plan for t-ipartite
control of the railroads. responded to-
day TO sharp questioning from the semi
circle OF committee members who
called on him TO explain every phase
Of the labor bill.
Through it all. Mr.. Plumb cluns
steadfas,ly to the assertion. number
less times repeated. that the railroad
unions aimed Ito eliminate the mo-
I'VE OF operation for profit and sub
vice, 10 which he added the corol-
!arE that 1t means democracy in in
dustry. without which democracy in
politics is a mere shell and sham
Gravely Plumb talked of revolution
as an alternative in case the adoption
OF some such plan" was not OBJ
gress. and said tina, was the de,ermi-
nation or the masses Of men who he
represented. though l nope never TO
live to see the DAY"
Plumb was asked BY Representative
Sweet. Iowa, why. IL the government
was TO own the roads, his plan did not
give II authority 10 operate
Because We do not believe in oper-
alton BY any governmental body" the
witness replied. We do not believe
this great industry can be- conducted
by any political au,oc-acy. If we
leave operation in the hands Of politi-
cal appointees We would place the rail
way systems ultimately in the hands of
politicians. and that we submit. can
not be safely done
The men operating the roads have
made life study of il. We have pro-
vided an incentive 10 actuate every
employee. and in This bill we have re-
moved restrictions placed upon them
by capital"
You believe then" Mr.. Sweet asked
that your plan will give more Of an
equal opportunity 70 those engaged IN
railroad work."
we believe Il restores TO those In
this industry that equal opportunity
of which they have been deprived"
