In its present form the more Important

conditions for raiload employees Shall
be prohibited from consideration or de-
termination of the issues while the men
are on strike.
In this way, he points out, the employ
es will realize that the board cannot
function nntil they return to work, that
political pressure could not be exerted in
the effort to secure compromise and
that labor can not contend that it is being
deprived of any of its constitutional
rights. There would be nothing in the
law to prevent the menIfrom striking, but
a return to work would be condition
precedent to a consideration of their
grievance.
While the better judgment Of this
country is unanimously agreed that there
should be no cessation of transportation
or essential industry Of any kind, there is
nevertheless not the same unanimity
with respect to the methods best adapted
to insure uninterrupted employment
while the grievances Of the men are being
considered by the properly constituted
tribunal" says Mr.. Mcintyre.
"To say that man shall not strike is
one thing, but to enforce the mandate is
another. Aside from ones constitution
al rights in the premises such law is
generally so obnoxious as to foreclose it
against passage by Congress, and even if
in some way it would become part of our
statutory law, it is hardly conceivable
that it could be enforced without inviting
disaster to law and order generally The
thing to do therefore is to address the
law to the committee or board to be Great
ed for the purpose of adjusting wages
and working conditions of the employees,
l. e., Provide by appropriate language
in pending bills dealing with those wage
committees and boards, that said COM
mittees and boards are prohibited from
a consideration or determination of the
issues while the men are out on strike"

BREAK DOWN OF REGULATION

For several years past, managers of
public utility companies have pointed out
that utility rates could not remain sta
tonaly while cost Of labor and supplies
advanced, without finally forcing public
utility companies to the wall. The butch
er, the baker, the laborer and the supply
man of every kind increased prices stead
lily but all seemed to think they should
get the same car ride for a nickel, the
same old telephone bill and in fact the
vice.
Many articles have been written on the
break down of our railroads and utilities
but we believe that the time is ripe for
an article dealing with the subject of the
''break down of public regulation"
This regulation has been carried on
with but one object for many years past;
namely, cheaper rates.
Theoretically we have had cheaper
rates due to regulation AS q matter of
fact if we added the cost Of maintaining
our regulating bodies and the curtail-
ed development due to inability Of the
companies to secure sufficient funds to
build extensions as needed and keep up
repairs, we would, in all probability find
that we have paid dearly for our past
cheaper" rates. &C.
Amy man whose wages have been in
creased or who has increased the price Of
the product which he manufactures o.
sells, DUNG the past five years, has no
valid ground for complaining at neces
sary increases in public utility rates to-
day. The public must recognize these con-
ditions unless it wishes to severely Grip
pie future development in this country.

WHAT BEET SUGAR MEANS

The beet sugar and candy industries
are among the great employers of labor
in the west. The beet sugar industry has
prevented sugar famine in this nation
England seems to prefer beet sugar for
candy manufacture. There is every rea-
son at the present time to further devel-
OPP and secure our beet sugar industry.
Thee is a shortage of sugar all over the
world which will require increased pro-
duction. Consumption per capita has
been increasing at rapid rate. Candy
and soft drinks are being produced as
nevre before and candy has become ne
cessaly article of diet. The beet pulp is
needed for cattle food.
Farming has been greatly benefited
by the sugar beet industry which was
made possible to get big returns from
small acreage. The farmer must study
how to increase tonnage per acre, there
by raising his profits.
Failure to encourage and increase the
beet sugar industry at this time will be
a national mistake for cheap sugar and
numerous industries hinge on the sue
cess of the beet sugar industry

island from England, and it was

in the Lower Rio Grande Valley
where any increase in the existing
freight rates will prove extremely
detrimental to development.
At the present time the Valley n
paying exorbitant freight rates q ;
compared with other parts Of he
country with which it is in direct
competition by reason Of the differ
entail which discriminates against
the shippers of this section. If the
increase in rates is applied without
an equitable adjustment of the diff
ferential it will prove tremendous
obstacle to Valley Development
far greater obstacle than the dis
criminatory rates now in effect pre-
sent.
If the Valley is to prevent the
adoption of this increase without an
equitable adjustment of the existing
rate, prompt action is vital. Action
by a few will not avail. 1t will ne
cessitate the using of every influ-
ence at the Valleys command-and
it must be applied Immediately.
Every town and community in the
Valley must give its support to the
effort which will shortly be inaue-
urated to oppose this unjust increase
in the rates the Valley is compelled
to pay, and the support must be Of
such character as TO make clear the
fact that the increase of rates would
practically be deathblow to the de-
velopment Of what is destined to be
come one Of the most important ae-
ricultural sections Of the country.
1t is extremely unfortunate that
the proposed Valley Chamber Of
Commerce has not yet reached an
effective working stage, as this is a
problem which requires an organiza-
ton of that character for its proper
solution. However, il Is possible
that while not even a tentative or
ganization has been affected, the
leaders Of the movement and those
interested in the general welfare of
the Valley could meet the situation j:
they will act promptly in arousine
the people to the danger which now
confronts them.
A local business man, who Is TAX
ing great interest in this matter
states that mass meeting Of all the
business interests of Brownsville will
be held early next week for the pur-
pose Of devising plans to meet the
situation, and the people Of the Val
, ley towns are requested TO hold
themselves in readiness TO give I'm
mediate cooperation in such plans a:
may be agreed upon. 1t would ap
pear that now is the opportune time
for the Valley business interests anc
| farmers to abolish the differentia
when the St. L. b. a. NJ. railway ap
plies for its increase in freight rates
There is much valuable statistics anc

nection with the deep water move
ment, and this should be obtainabi'

menace to the Valleys welfare.
