|ciared, and he turned to the ministers
seated behind him for corrobOration.
THE worlds misery was focused on
the heart of Jesus In Gethsemane. II
was your 1uisery and my misery, your
SIN and my sin that He bore during those
hours OF misery.
MUST FACE MISERY

1T cost Jesus a great deal to effect
your salvation and mine. 10 you sup
pose you are going to dodge your Geth-
semane? You won't know the great Joy
Of Easter until you have the chance of

Of his own need. then he cries out loudly
for the Savior. I want you 10 be miser-
able, for you have to be miserable be
fore you can be happy.
Il know there Is a lot Of agony in
giving up the things Of ghe world that
YOU love. Don't tell ME there is no agony
TO It. But place the things Of the world
beside Jesus. Then take your choice. -

JEWELL GIVES
WORKERS SIDE
IN ARGUMENT
Says No Authorized Strike of
Federated Rail Employees
Called Since 1912.
RULES HELD ESSENTIAL

CHICAGO, March 24-Since the or
ganization of the railway employees de
partment of the American Federation of
Labor in 1912 not a single authorized
strike of federated shop craft employees
has been called, b. NJ. Jewell, president
of the department, told the United States
Railway Labor Board today. Jewell was
presenting arguments in support of la
boris side of the controversy over ma
tional rules and working agreements.
Jewell also declared that abrogation of
the national agreements and the negoti-
alton of separate rules and working
agreements on each individual railroad
would cost the workers more than &c.
900 and require the services Of 5000
men.
STRIKES NUMEROUS
PRIOR TO 1912.
During the years prior to 1912" said
Jewell, there was hardly a period when
some Of the members of one or all Of the
federated shop craft organizations were
not OH strike In their efforts to secure
from the railroad mana gements Just and
reasonable wages and working conditions.
1t is significant that since 1912 the date
when the railway employees department

authorized strike of federated shop craft
employees.
ut IS significant also that during this
same period the great progress toward
the attainment OF just and reasonable
wages aud working conditions was made. -
Jewell declared that there are 455,776
railroad shop employees in the United
States and that 445, 900 Of them are actual
har aqf hafr ,{vgt Ia
claimed the right Of the organization TO
represent all employees eligible to mem
bership !n the respective craft organiza-
tions on all railroads, regardless Of mem
bership or nonmembership.
Organizations comprising the federated
shop crafts, Jewell asserted had 367
agreements which were effective prior to
Oct %, 1919. These many agreements,
he asserted, now have been superseded
by the present national agreement.
SAYS AGREEMENT
ECONOMICAL.
Jewell answered the contention Of W.
w. Atterbury, vice president Of the Penn
sylvania system, that the national agree
ments were costing the railroads millions
Of dollars In wasted money" annually
by declaring that IAN agreement apply
ing alike TO all railroads viii be a great
factor in assisting 10 establish efficient
and economical railroad operation"
Jewell contended such an agreement
would remove the costly labor turn
over" which he declared is due to the
fact that wages and conditions Of en-
ployment on one road may be more
favorable than on another
In negotiating separate agreements
with each Of the lO7 roads that sre
parties to the national agreement, Jewell
declared. the services Of J.lG5 committee
men would be required. The daily eK-
pense OF maintaining these committees,
he asserted, would be $50, ,76J and II
ninety days were required TO complete
the agreements the expense would be
S5.9lS, ,442.
JEWELS statement was voluminous and
Indications were that he would not be
able to complete its presentation today.
