( ance OF equipment foremen, was 27e,-
iss, while In January, 1919, IL was 1885,
500. an increase OF 60,500 or almost 90
per cent Reductions in average hours
worked per empl0ye account for some
OF this increase IN the number of em-
plOyes, but the total hours these em-
ployes were paid for on an hourly
basis was much greater in January,
1919, than in December, 1917. The adj
vances made In their hourly wages
ranged from a. 20 s. per cent; and
this. coupled with the large increase in
the hours they were paid for, accounts
for a large part Of the increase in rail-
way expenses. The shop crafts are
now before tho Board Of Railroad
Wages and Working Conditions asking
for another enormous advance in
wages. They might pertiently be ask
cd to work efficiently for the high
wages they already are received before
seeking for another advance.
Computations based upon the Janu-
airy pay roll indicate that in that month
the wages being paid by the railways
were running al rates substantially In
excess Of 5000 100000 a year more than
NIAfN MtNE With kUAEA liAAlfliN NVMNlU VI
was adopted. Since then other advances
amounting 20 about S65,000,00O a year
have been made. Roughly speaking,
therefore, Il must be concluded that as
sumlng that the same number OF en-
ployes would be kept on the pay rolls
as in January, 1919, and that they
would continue TO work the same num-
Der Of hours or days per month as then,
the advances in wages made under gov
ernment control would amount to very
close 10 1000 100000 a year. This fact
Is highly interesting and significant in
view OF what was said by the Railroad
Wage Commission about a year ago in
its report That commission was ere
ated TO consider the claims OF all
classes Of employees. In IFS report IL
said that II all the advances in wages
asked for were made they would cost
about si.000,00OO0O a year. 10 recon-
mended advances amounting 10 about
s300.O00000 a year Since then, how
ever sufficient advances have been
made actually to raise the total santed
10 a sum equal to all that the railway
employees originally asked for.
''The representatives OF the railway
employees have certainly done very well
for their followers. As TO those who
have represented the public. and es-
pecially Mr.. McAdoo, to whom the pres
ont wage scales are chiefly attributable.
it may at least be said for them that
they have succeeded in restraining them7l

NEW LIGHT ON PRESENT
RAILWAY WAGES


The effects Of the changes in sala-
ries and wages and working conditions
on the railways which have been made
under government control are strik-
ingly reflected by the statistics regard
ing the pay roll for January. i9i9."
says the Railway Age. '"The last month
OF private control was December. 1911.
, in that month the railways handled
practically the same traffic as In Janu-
airy, 1919 In January. 1919. however.
they had lij,026 more employees than
in December, 1917. With the average
wage per employc going mp and the
average amount Of traillc handled per
employe going down u Is easy 10 un-
derstand why the changes IN wages and
working conditions are having such un-
favorable effects upon net earnings.
The increases and decreases made in
salaries and wages per day or hour call
attention f0rclbly 10 the difference be-
tween the way in which the officers OF
the railways and the employees have
been treated under government opera
ton. The average salary OF general
officers receiving $1,000 or more per
year has been reduced 90 per cent The
average salary OF division officers re-
ceiving $1,000 or more per year has re-
malned unchanged. The average salary
OF general officers receiving less than
$1,000 has been increased IL per cent.
and the average salary Of division OH
GERS receiving lessNhan $1,000 has been
increased 80 per cent The average in
crease made 10 all officers and en-
ployes up 20 the end Of January haa
been as per cent Since then further
advances have been made to employees
In train service, etc, which will in
crease the average 10 considerably more
general and division officers receiving
more than $1,000 a year have seen their
salaries standing still or being reduced
while they have seen the wages OF rail-
way labor advanced by more than half.
owing TO the reductions in passen- |
ger service, and 10 reductions In the

If Town Council will not take the ini-

The Fatal Fourteen
from The New York Trlbune.)

None OF the covenant articles has
been attacked so often and from so
many different quarters as Article \.
Mr.. Root, Senator Knox and Justice
Hughes have exposed its seeds OF future
trouble. Even that ardent advocate of
all things Wilsonian. The New Republic
has refused to swallow It. Conservative
nationalist and Utopian radical agree in
its condemnation.
BY subscribing to this article the
American nation Will be under some
sort OF obligation TO become a party TO
every war that may arise later from the
territorial settlements which today are
being manufactured at Paris, with what
success the withdrawal Of the Italian
delegation indicates.
IL would appear that there are exact
~ fourteen possible wars I'm this one
article. II Europe alone IS considered
apart from Soviet Russia and from Tur-
key. Here Is the list:
1. Franco-German war over the saar
Valley.

territories Germany loses or Poland
fails to obtain. - '->-
3. Polish-Lithuanian war over the

4. Polish-Ukrainlan war over Galicia

Bessarabia and Bukovina.
6. Czecho-Polish war over Silesia.

over Macedonia.
i2. Jugo-slav-1talian war over al
most anything.
i3. Italisn-Greek war over Albania.
IL. Itslian-German war over the
Tyrol
The issue is not at all whether the
settlements to be arrived at are intrin-
sically just OF otherwise. The question
is simply how long it viii take for pop
ular passion to boil over in countries
which, rightly or wrongly, feel them
selves injured by those settlements.
For every one Of the Wilsonian four
teen points the American nation is ask
cd to underwrlte a possible new war.

Firing Squad Unnerved and Many
Missed Shots, States
Report.

Details Of the execution OF Gen.
Felipe Angeles which have reached
Washington through official channels
stirred military circles when it was
learned that Angeles was killed by
explosive bullets.
According to the report, Angeles
was the only calm and composed man
at the execution. 1t says the firing
squad wac unnerved and that some
Of the bullets missed. So unstruDg
were the soldiers that the body was
pierced in many places Several MEM
bers of the squad nearly collapsed.
Angeles. after delivering his fare
we'll warning to the Mexican natior,
lighted a cigarette and turned to the
commander and asked him IL he were
ready. The commander failed to
speak, but answered the query with
a nod. Angeles placed his hand over
his heart TO indicate where the rifles
should be aimed and gave the COM
mand to fire.
Instead of firing in a volley, the
scattered their shots.
The first three bullets struck
Angeles in the legs another pierced
his head and the explosive bullets
tore his body to pieces.
