OUTLAW STRIKE
 ON ROAD SETTLED MEN BACK AT WORK
Brotherhood Chiefs Succeed Also in Heading Off General
 Strike.

Through the efforts of the heads of the Brotherhood organizations the railroad workers who went out on strike at the Hartford yards two weeks ago and seriously hampered freight de- liveries, have now all returned to work and the New Haven Road is rapidly recovering from the tie-up. The men went to work early this week on orders of their Brotherhood chiefs and the road took them back in their old posi- tions as to seniority. General Chair man John L. Rowe of the trainmen's committee after several conferences with Manager Bardo secured an exten- sion of time for the men to return to their jobs in their old places, from the time limit set by the road, and in the meanwhile counselled the men to drop their support of the outlaws and re- turn to their jobs and let the wage question go along in its orderly course. His counsel finally prevailed over that of the outside agitators who were at tempting general strike on the New Haven lines for last Sunday but which solely through the efforts of the Brotherhood chiefs was frustrated.
 Among the officials present at the meetings of railroad men were John R. Rowe, general chairman of the Broth erhood of Railroad Trainmen, and T. R. Dodge, assistant to President w. G. Lee of the brotherhood.
 A largely attended meeting of the Hartford members of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen was held i'll Grand Army Hall, East Hartford, Sunday afternoon. The meeting lasted from 2 AS o'clock to 7 AS p. m. and was at tended by all of the men employed in the local yards and Hartford yards of the New Haven" road who could be spared from the service. T. R. Dodge, assistant to the president of the Grand Lodge of the B. of R. T. addressed the men. He emphasized the fact that the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen was composed of representative men who were ready to stand behind all contracts and agreements which the officers of the organization would make with the com pany by whom the men are employed, and they did not sanction the present outlaw" strike. He also told of the rules which must be obeyed in calling strike and he predicted that if the men stood behind the organization and its officials that better times would soon prevail for all
 changed about 20 years ago, he said, which gave the, grand lodge officers power to make contracts with officials of the company and this rule applies to the calling of strikes and today there are no legal strikes in this section of the country and all who refuse to work under the present contracts and agreements do so without the approval of the organization or its officials.
 After that the men agreed to return to work.

Somehow or other they do meet, but
hat is all. There Is no chance for the
overlap, otherwise known as savings.
unless strict economies are practiced
according to a carefully laid plan.
large corporations long ago adopt
ed q budget system by which all re-
quirements of their financial outlay
are apportioned. Strict adherence to
the budget keeps expenses below in
come, the difference being net opera
ating profit.
A budget which is the product of
careful thought. with absolutely nee
essary expenditures matched against
income, is bound to result in econo-
mies-little savings here and there
which in the aggregate may amount
to a considerable percentage OF the
income.
1t is only by keeping a minute and
accurate record Of every expenditure
that the unnecessary inroads, the
thoughtless quarters here and 50-cent
piece there, can be stopped. n in
terest is aroused and the idea of saw
ing gets a foothold, thrift supersedes

only way to insure keeping h IL. c.
