LEE COMPLAINS
OF LABOR Waste
Illustrates Multiplication of
Expense Under National
Agreements
POINTS OUT THREE
PRESSING QUESTIONS

CLEVELAND. March Elisha
Lee, vice president Of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Co, addressing the
Cleveland Chamber of Commerce
yesterday, said the Pennsylvania
Railroad lost a quarter of a million
dollars a day during January; that
its income from all sources was ST.
$4,000 against expenditures of s2.-
$4,000 in that period; that there
are $4,000 idle freight cars on the
side tracks of the system, represent
ing 80 - per cent. OF the entire
equipment; that there are in the
United States 100000 idle freight
cars. and that the real solution Of the
wage problem, which is so closely al
lied to the question of successful
railroad management. must be along
lines illustrated by the recently or
ganized joint reviewing commission
of the Pennsylvania system.
Mr.. Lee said there could be no
solution Of the railway wage problem
which does not result in the creation
OF that broader margin between
earnings and expenses that is indis-
pensable as a basis for credit. In
December last, Mr.. Lee said, the net
earnings of the railroads of the
United States were at the rate OF
only III per cent. per year on the
value OF the property utilized, with
prospect that the return for Jan
uary and February, when fully com
piled, will be more unfavorable still
The three most pressing practica
questions before railroad managers
and the public today. in Mr.. Lee:
opinion, are:
How can we make each hour
or day Of work more productive
of real results?
Shall railroad wage scales be
lowered, and If so, to what ex-
tent?
Must railroad rates be re-
duced and, il so, when should
the reduction be made and how
extensive should II be?
No one, said the speaker, can sue
! cessfully defend a rule that requires
| that mechanic at eighty-fve cent
an hour must do more work thar
can be equally done by a helper a
sixty-four cents rby an unskille,
/ laborer at forty-eight and a hal
cents Nor can there be justification
for a provision that a man called foi
work one hour, or even a Fraction
Of an hour, ahead OF his usual time
must be paid for. five hours addi
tional.
1t is impossible TO excuse regula
tions that necessitate six men to re
pair leak in a locomotive boiler
when two men formerly did TIT
work without the slightest trouble
Now. under the national agreement
and the excessive separation o
trades which they have brough
about, the process of repairing
simple little leak in a boiler is a
follows:
A sheet metal worker, with
helper standing by to hand him tn
! tools, loosens the jacket; a locomo
tive carpenter, whose tools must b.
handed to him by another helper
removes the tagging; a boilermaker
waited upon by still third helper

1t has been a long time since the

have been made, and with these ad-

To end the film

The object Is to fight the film, which dims tho
teeth and causes most tooth troubles. Dental
science has worked years to do that
Film is that viscous coat you feel Il clings to
teeth, enters creees and stays The ordinary tooth
paste does not combat it satisfactorily so brush
ing leaves much OF il intact.
II is the flm-coat that discolors not the teeth.
Film is the basis of tartar II holds food substanee
which ferments and forms acid. II holds the acid
In contact with the teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in IT, They, with tartar,
are the chief cause Of pyorrhea. Thus all these
troubles have been constantly increasing, despite
