RESULTS OF WI .sONIAN POLICY

The series of railroad strikes from which
the country is now suffering is the natural out
growth and consequence Of the attitude of the
administration towards the four railroad
brotherhoods in 1916, when the country was
threatened with a complete tieup Of railroad
transportation unless certain wage demands
were granted within specified time. When
the leaders Of the railroad unions submitted
their demands with threat Of destruction to
the country unless those demands were grant
ed, the act was little short of treason and from
every viewpoint was defiance Of law and or
der The railroad brotherhoods challenged the
sovereignty of the government, and the admin
istration, then in control not only OF the execu-
tive but Of the legislative branch Of the gov
eminent, surrendered
With that example before them, other rail
road unions have sought to enforce their de-
mands by resort to strike with endless injury
to industry and incalculable suffering to the
people Of the country if the strike shall be
long continued. Surrender of the government
through the enactment Of the infamous Adam
son law is a standing invitation to any and all
classes of workers engaged in essential indus
tries to resort to any means that may promote
their selfish ends.

Avenue Completely Destroyed BY

however, was accomplished at st.

the last instalment of a 100000
church edifice, was raised. Last April

ment of the debt was carefully plan
ned, and under the tactful manage
ment of the pastor, Rev. George A..
Martin, the entire amount was secur-
ed and the church stands without
debt. In less than four years the
present pastor engineered the con-
struction of 100000 church edifc",
laying the corner stone while the ash
es of the old edifce were still warm,
securing the cooperation of the last
man in the constituency, paying every
dollar of it's debt, with the salary adj

In emphasizing the last, DR.. Fox
has rendered welcome service to
the student Of the Bible. Owing to a
general uncritical attitude adopted by
Christian theologians in their study
Of the source book of Christianity and
to the mental acquiesence and inert
ness Of the great mass Of Christian
believers, an erroneous conception of
the New Testament as the counterpart
Of the Old has found acceptance in
the minds Of many. They regard Ju-
daism as a purely journalistic creed,
with nothing but rituals and external
devotion to take the place Of spiritual
content. They consider the present day
efforts Of religious intitutions to as
sumo social duties as having their
origin in the teachings Of Jesus, dis
