WAGES AND RAILROADS

If the news dispatches of the last few days are
reliable indices of what is taking place, we may
conclude that railroad labor and railroad owner
ship are lining up for death struggle. One or
the other must YIELD and profound change in
present conditions will result, no matter which
yields.
If labor wins, it will mean higher wages, higher
rates, heavier burden on all forms of business
the possible bankruptcy of the roads, and another
desperate attempt to place them under government
ownership.
If the roads win, naturally it means lower
wages, weakening of the power of unionsm,
fuller control of the roads by the owners, and,
presumably gradual reduction of rates to some
thing approaching the old-time level.
1t is big question-one in which every one of
Amerca's hundred and ten million people is in
terested 1t is political as well as an economic
question, because the fate of the great transporta-
hon systems of the country is entwned with the
fate of some of the country's most cherished po-
litical maxms
A victory by the brotherhoods will settle it
once for all, that the owner has no right of control
over his own property He can hardly be called
trustee, without sxaggeradon, since even trus-
tee has some discretion in the management of the
trust estate In fact, the political and economic
status of the sockholder of a railroad will be
something never contemplated or imagined in our
laws
He will be holder of property without the USE
usufruct control. Perhaps the legal status of
the holder of championship cup which has to be
contested every year will come nearest to his That
anything like private ownership can so on under
such conditions is unthinkable; and experience has
shown that public ownership of the railroads means
kccnfusion, incompetence, waste. and long train

voice proclaiming bleak distress. The most of
us are CHEEKY guys who brandsh pleasant grins
we don't send up our doeful cries until we bark
our shns. We know this worlds good old joint
in which to spend years, and so don't linger
to anont the veldt with useless tears. A better
world we could not wish life is its own reward;
but there is always some poor fish who hits a
minor chord And while we sing of azure skies
and blue and silver seas he jars us with dis
cordant cries of Grape and soup and cheese. We
travel on a sunlt track and play the fife and
drum, but he has, read the almanac. and knows
that storms will come. We see the bride and
bridegroom pass, and boost their wedding rags;
but he is sure that flesh is grass, and brides will
be old hays. We sing Of hope and happy days.
and dance upon the sward; but always there are
dreary jays who hit the minor chord

If criticism of the Harding administration is

him. No right feeling American wants him to

siOnally the rule OF fur brims and fab
ric crowns is reversed in models that
have fur crowns and velvet brims.
The handsome hat at the top Of the
group pictured employs squirrel fur
for its corOnet and shirred gray velvet
for crown. Such hats are often fin
ished with a sparkling pin or orna-
ment of rhinestones suggestive Of
frost. The soft, warm-lOoking hat at
the left has a brim that suggests the
coy poke bonnet and is trimmed with
ribbGn and fur balls. It might be
made in any of the millinery furs. At
the right a turban with a wide up
turned brim of fur has a sectional
crown Of velvet and boasts a lovely
plume of curled ostrich at the back.

offer; for good furs outlast many sea-

Trainmaster Gould
Made Superintendent

J. L. Gould, for the past 9 years
trainmaster of the N. o. G. NJ, was
appointed superintendent of the sys-
TEN, effective January /, to succeed
w. S. Hanley, who resigned the posi-
ton last month. Mr.. Gould's success
sor has not been announced.
The new superintendent has been
in the service of the N. o. G. N. rail-
road since 1907, when he was select
ed as chief dispatcher. In 1912 he
was promoted to trainmaster, which
position he has held since that date.
He is very popular with the train
men and it is expected the transpor-
tation department will become one
of the best in the country.
G.. F. Wolbreicht, chief clerk to
W. S. Hanley, will remain as chief
clerk to Superintendent Gould.
Mr.. Gould has been unable to as
sumo his new duties, having under
gone serious operation last week.
