The fuel conservation section of the railroad
administration publishes an interesting report.
This section is made up Of railroad men OF ex-
perience and it has done good work. In 1918
railroad fuel consumption had run to almost a
third excess over the consumption of 1916.
Moreover, the coal delivered to the railroads
was of inferior quality. These railroaders went
to work; they set no definite regulations but
asked cooperation in adopting the fuel plans
that had proved most economical in practice.
They examined all phases of the fuel problem
and counseled with all the workers who used
fuel In 1919 the total saving estimated on u
basis of nine months for which reports are in
will be ten million, eight hundred and ninety
eight tons which means a money saving of
nearly forty-six million dollars. This is cheer
ing news just at this time:

For Commercial Lighting

this involves expensive additions.
For Commercial Lighting
Provisions of the new schedule for
commercial lighting are technically
stated as follows:
to 100 X. w. H. per month per
connected X. W., 7A cents per X.
w. H.
Over 100 X. w. H. per connected
K. W., 8 cents per X. w. H.
This is subject to charge of not
less than 81 per month per meter
and the rate is net
Under the schedule in force until
August l, the rate was dependent on
the monthly guarantee of the individ-
ual consumer and variations were
from 3.88 to 8.88 cents. There was
10 per cent discount also allowed.
No Commercial Power Change
/ These are the only changes which
the new schedule provides, according
to the local offices of the company.
No new rate on commercial power is
made.
Last month came the order of the
public service commission to reduce
the combined light and power rates
so that the company should not re-
ceive more than per cent on the
valuation of the property-that fixed
in 1911, states the local office of
the firm.
Reduction Is Voluntary
Filing of the new schedule was
voluntary on the part of the COM
pany, says George H. Newell, man
ager in Everett for the company,
since an appeal has been made by
the company to the federal court
from the decision of the commits
sion.
"In answer to the commissions no.
tice, the company has denied the
commissions jurisdiction over it's
power rates and in general has de-
MED the commissions right to fix
the valuation of the company's light
and power property as of the APP
praisal made in 1911, with accruals
up to date" said Mr.. Newell today.
"The company has voluntarily filed
new schedule of domestic rates
and also of commercial light rates"

Courts Can't Settle
Industrial Disputes

New York, July 24.-There is moth
ing to support the claim that be-
cause courts adjust differences be-
tween persons, this theory should
apply to industrial disputes, says the
National Civic Federation Review.
Zone of the most popular argu-
ments for the Kansas ('can't strike")
law is that it treats industrial dis
putes in the same manner as society
treats all other disputes, through
courts of law. Do we not submit
all our differences, of whatever ma
ture, to judges and juries, even our
most intimate affairs? The control
of our children, our marriage rela-
tions, the question of inheritance
and thousands of other matters are
applied by courts of law. To say
that there are any more delicate
questions arising in the relations be-
tween the employer and the employe
than between man and his wife is,
they argue, an absurdity.
This view is so generally main
tanned by the public that it is al
most accepted as an axiom. Every
lawyer, educated to reverse the courts
in his everyday practice, naturally
upholds this view.
"But are industrial disputes to be
classed with all other disputes? En-
phatically, no. The principles gov
erning disputes in general have been
evolved out of centuries of expert
ence, by long and tedious processes,
and, concededly, just codes and pre-
cedents have been established govern
ing almost every conceivable phase
of misunderstanding.
"Not so in the industrial world.
There is no agreed code, no agreed
precedent. Changes in public SEN
timent from the time not long ago
when, as Mr.. Gompers pointed out, it
was crime to ask for higher wages,
when legislation was sought for a
maximum wage, while now it is
sought for minimum wage, have
been so revolutionary as to BATTLE
all attempts to determine status
from which a code could be evolved"

''Can't- Strike" Law
Pinches Employers

Topeka, Kan, July 24.-Employ-
ers in this state are beginning to
murmur against Governor Aliens
cant strike" law. The employers
are regulated under the law, but
they were willing to accept this if
labor could be handcuffed. AS far
as labor is concerned the law is a
failure, and the employers see that
if it is to be enforced the state
must inaugurate an extensive jail
building system.
John S. Dean, Topeka lawyer and
president of the Anti-Trade Union
Kansas Employers Association, gives
this warning to Governor Allen that
his legislation is doomed because it
has failed to control labor; and it
must not be used against the en-
plCyers:
"if the law may require las it
dces) that a private industry may
not cease production without a per-
mit from the court of industrial re-
lations, it will follow that the law
may forbid the farmer to reduce his
production or to cease production.
A little widening of the circle and
this court will be debating to the
farmer just how many acres of
wheat, corn, potatoes, ETC., he shall
cultivate and also fix the Price he
must accept for the same.
Insofar as the Kansas industrial
court law undertakes to clothe the
state with general regulatory pow
ers over private industries, and the
liberty of the workers and partisans
to accept or reject any schedule of
wages offered, it is unconstitutional,
and the most reactionary legislation
of which this generation furnishes
any example"

NEW DOMESTIC LIGHT AND POWER
RATE FILED; IN EFFECT AUGUST

On August l, new domestic pow
er rate and a new commercial light
ing rate, both reductions on the
effect in Everett. The schedule of
the new rates has been placed on
file with the Public Service Commits
sion at Olympic by the Puget Sound
International Railway & Power Com
pany.
An appeal from the order of the
Public Service Commission has been
taken since that order for a reduc-
ton in combined light and power
rates, which was issued a few weeks
ago, and the matter will now go into
the United States district court in
Seattle.
For Home Use
The new rate for domestic power
is:
First As X. W. H. consumed per
month, 714 cents per X. W. H.
Over As K. w. H. consumed per
month, 3 cents per K. w. H.
This is subject to minimum
charge of 81 per month and charge
of 81 will be made each residence
customer for the opening of each
account, to be paid at the time OF
signing the contract.
Under the new schedule there is
only one minimum to be paid for use
of power in the home for both light
ing and domestic power use and
there is only one meter.
The new schedule displaces the old
one which had rate for home light.
ing and another for home power use
For each there was a minimum OF
81 and for each meter. With the
one minimum, a reduction to the
consumer of small quantities should
be appreciate.
The old schedule for home light
ing was: First 90 K. W. H. con-
sumed per month, S.8 cents per K
W. H.; over 60 K. w. H. consumed
per month, cents per X. w. H.
The old schedule for domestic power
rate was Scent flat rate which is
the same as the new rate, for all
power in excess of As K. w. H.
The new rate is net. A discount
of 10 per cent was formerly allowed.
Everett's new rate is under the
same arrangement as that of Seat
tie, but the Seattle rate on As K.
w. H. is 6 cents and on an amount
over that 21s cents.
The same rates of 71a and cents
apply to new consumers except that
variable minimums are fixed accord
ing to the cost of accommodating
the consumer, since in some cases
