The Pennsylvania railroad has notified the Rail-
way Labor board that they will not obey the boards
order to meet federated shop craft officials for the
purpose Of drawing up new working rules. That IL
violation OF both se spirit and the letter Of the
transportation act and II the board does not know
how to deal with such situation some one at Wash
Ington should take the matter INLAND. The great
Pennsylvania railroad has no right to flOut the
law than West Virginia miner, for instance. The
amazing thing about this is THAT the Pennsylvania
railroad should undertake such thing. They. must
be doing lot of loose thinking at Broad street
these days. And in tho past some OF the best think
ing in the country was done there.

There is said to be some displeasure in Washing
ton over the decision OF President Harding that the
departments and the other agencies OF the govern
ments must live within their income. The govern
ment has been run on the Coal Oil Johnny plan for
so many years that It is hard for the old hands to
adart themselves the new standard but they will
do it. Those who can't Of course can get out. No
one is holding the gate against their exit.
