RAILWAY WORKERS
BOARDS OPPOSED
U. S. Chamber of Commerce
Says They Would Lessen e.
ficiency and Increase Cost.

The Chamber of Commerce Of the
United States opposes creation of ma
tional railroad boards Of labor adjust
ployes. A resolution made public today
by the board of directors of the cham
Der asserts such a proposition is not in
the public interest
In the opinion of the board" says
the resolution, ''the esta blishment of
national adjustment boards, as desired
by representatives of the several organi-
cations OF the employees, would tend to
bring about state of nationalizato
OF tne railroads OF the United states
and eventually to produce the same re-
suit in all industries, producing a con-
sanity increasing cost OF transporta-
ton and production. to the incalculable
injury of the pubic at large and in
juriously affecting both the employers
and the employees in the ultimate re-
suit.
Less Efficiency Alleged.
THE functioning of such national
boards of labor adjustment will newt
ably lessen efficiency and impair the
discipline necessary to the successful
operation of the railway systems OF the
United States under private control, sub
Ject to government regulation.
such national boards of adjustment
will effectually prevent open shop
operation, under which the employer
and the employe may enter into and
determine the conditions of employ
ment relations with each other, and
thereby impair the successful con-
duct and full development of the
transportation system in the first in
stance, and of all industrial estab-
lishments when this form of nation
alization is extended to them. as will
inevitably be extended in case it is
established in connection with the
railroad system of the United States.
Obstacle to Cooperation Claimed.
"The result Of the operation of such
national railroad boards of labor
adjustment will make impossible in
telligent and practical cooperation
directly between employers and en-
ployes, based upon mutual recogni-
ton of their community Of interest
involved in the success of the par
ticular railway or industrial estab-
lishment in which they are asso-
ciated.
This board is opposed to any pro-
cedure which now or hereafter will
result in. the establishment of national
abor adjustment boards as advocated
by the representatives of the several
organizations of railroad employees"

PROHIBITION HAS GONE
OVER DAM, SAYS KRAMER
Here to Stay and Can Never Back
Up, q. S. Commissioner
Tells City Club.


There is no use fooling ourselves
about prohibition" said John r
Kramer, federal prohibition commits
sioner, speaking yesterday on that sub
ject before the City Club luncheon fo-
rum. Prohibition is here to stay. It's
gone over the dam and can never get
back up"
Commissioner Kramer said that the
sentiment for prohibition had been
crystaliizing in the United States for
many years. He said that he had seen
it coming for thirty years and that
he knew it would sweep the country
when 1t did come.
The sentiment in regard to pro-
hibition in four years. said Commits
sioner Kramer. will be SO strong that
no federal officer or state officer will
be able to stand up against it."
Commissioner Kramer said that
some state officials were not Co
operating in the proper way with
prohibition enforcement He pointed
out that the adoption of the prin-
ciple Of prohibition Of liquor traffic
change in the history of the United
States government. Slavery was not
to be compared with it, he asserted,
inasmuch as slavery took in only a
part of the country and controlled
only the political and economic views
OF that part. Prohibition. he said.
took in not only the economical and
political phases, but also meant per-
sonal desires and appetites
The opposition to prohibition is
perfectly natural" said the speaker.
You can't change the views of men
by simply placing law on the stat
ute books"
The commissioner admitted that
men were drinking now, and drinking
considerably, but appealed to all
good sports" to adapt themselves to
the law, which was framed by the
majority.
The speaker was introduced by John
Walsh, chairman Of the civic and
forum committee Of the club.

lots upon the receipt of proper appli-
cation from interested parties.
Among the cases heard was re-
quest from the owner Of three lots

New Hampshire avenue for change
from residential to commercial. At
torney Benjamin A. Minor, who ap-
peared for the owner. called the COM
missions attention to the number of
business properties now in existence
around Dupont Circle.
Another case heard was from the
owner of the northeast corner Of 18th

dcrtiai TO commercial. Coto-ed resi-
dents of 18th street protested against
the change stating that it is proposed

corner, to which they are opposed.

The popular estimate of city's
healthfulness is based quite largely on
its relative cleanliness. All other
things being equal, clean attractive
community will be selected as a place
of residence or be widely recommended
for it's condition. Let us make Pasca-
goula CLEAN CITY and then let us
make it stay clean.
Beautiful Market street will soon be
reality, which will give Pascagoula
the widest and most beautiful drive
way on the Gulf Coast.
Letter from the l.. & N. r. r. to the
Civic League states that their men
were instructed to beautify the parry on
Krebs Ave and Magnolia street. The
work has already commenced.
Some citizens treat the city ordi-
nances as poke.
One of the worst pests of our city
is the razor-back hog.
If weeds could be used as collateral
