Robert E. Lee, and in doing so
made some appreciative remarks

der, but his expressions as to
our beloved Lee will endear him
all the more to our Southern
people.

WANT CANAL LABOR
 TO BE OPEN SHOP
INVESTIGATING COMMITTEES ON CANAL CONDITIONS RECON
 MEND RADICAL CHANGES

Washington. - Through reorSaniza tion of the administrative machinery in the Panama canal zone, with radi cal changes in existing policies affect ing employment of labor, physical ope ration of the canal and railroad, pay of employees and other important sub jects is recommended in the preiimt nary report submitted to Secretary Weeks by the commission which re gently investigated conditions in the canal zone at his request.
 The commission estimates that ar annual saving of $5,000.000 would re suit from adoption of its suggestions
 Chief among the recommendation Is that the governor of the cana zone be instructed mot to make agreements or understandings with the canal employees or any class there of for any period of time, but that the wages be periodically adjusted IT accordance with the law, which bases the canal wages on the pay of similar employees in the government service ID the United States" and that the gov ernor shall not deal with labor or ganizations as organizations. but shal. deal with committees of employees.
 Tt is further recommended, the report says. that the open shop prln ciple be actually put into effect on the isthmus and that in all departments g substantial proportion of non-umon men be employed"
 In another section the documen' asserts that the "open shop policy "in theory is followed on the canal but in some departments it is only | theory and the employees are complete ly unionized."
 The commission fully believes the report adds, "in collective dealing between the operatives and the eXecu tives on the canal, and believes that thereby misundsrstandings will be oo viated and cordial relations maintain ed but 1t is absolutely opposed to hay ing the policy of the canal dictated by labor organizations of the Uniteo States or elsewhere and it is equally opposed to outside agencies coming in 10 the canal one and formenting dis satisfaction"

 Senator Cummins, after his confer enee with the railway executives, said he believed that they would adopt at their Chicago meeting his suggestions for an immediate reduction of freight rates.
 The railway executives in the con- ference included T. D. Guyler. repre- senting a railway securities holders organization; Samuel Req, president of the Pennsylvania system; President Smith of the New York Central, Pres dent Holden of the Burlington syS- tenn: Julius Kruttschnitt, chairman Of teh Southern Pacific.

THE EDITOR.

Senator France along into Russia
A whole week must be devoted TO
hearing from the soviet govern
ment. All knew Of his coming:
why was his passage not expedited? e?
The immensity Of the man and the
immensity of his mission should
have called for some little special
consideration and preparation; but
instead thereof the senator was told
by the envoy to hang around the
borders of Russia for a week. The
envoy said he was puzzled by the
refusal of the United States TO aid
in the reconstruction of Russia by
resumine trade relations. as re-
quested by the communists. As a
trade envoy he should have known
through both personal observation
and official sources the precise situ-
alton. but on the strength Of his
confession Of being puzzled. Senator
France should have availed Of half
dozen words to tell him Of the pris-
oners. A bad beginning that.

Redistribution.

IT HERE is no subject of more personal interest
to more thousands of the population of this
District than reclassihcation. There is no
other that concerns more of the population of the
District who not on the federal civil lists II
means much to the merchants, the bankers, the
realtors, the professionals, the wage earners indeed
to every in the District
If the printed matter covering the investigation
ron which the several bills are based, the testi-
mony at the hearings the Briefs opinions and state
ments, was all gathered together, it would make
quite library. Each bill to have features
preferred to like ones in the other bills or not
found in them. Also some of those who have made
study of the subject, prefer one bill and some
another. No important measure was ever found
to be perfect when administered as a law. This
proof can only come by application.
1t is to be hoped therefore, that the authors of
these Redistribution bills will not have that pride
OF authorship which will persuade them that it must
be their particular bill or none. They have all
added materially and essentially to whatever is the
final conclusion. Whichever in the end is the one
used the basis for the final law all will have
contributed their share to the conclusion A de-
cision presumes prior diversity of opinion.
One important factor in reaching reclassihca-
tion conclusion is the viewpoint from which it is
approached OF course there two which are
instantly promnent-that of the government and
that of the employe. These more or less merge
into in the good of the service But from under
these comes the really more important questions as
to what is most promotve of efficiency to stability
of the service, the lowering of labor turnover and
in the end, true economy.
What the real motives which induce young
and women to enter the public service what
do they expect and what do they get? Why do
they stay leave and what should they find in the
service? Also is it economy to pay one person
well to do thing and so get it done right, or to
pay the same amount, or more, to two three and
have it done indifferently?
During the and afterward, there was one
room in which some eighty women were engaged
at identical work There no record or check
this work it in and none as it went
out. Each worker turned in her report. 1t is
reliably said that would habtualy do little or
absolutely nothing, but turn in report OF more
done than those who conscentiously did their best
every day and reported the truth. No reclassihca-
ton will provide for this. No law really can while
politics promotes it.
All reclassihcation probably do is to pro-
vide that incentive to hold position once secured
which will make the person desire to do his best
This after all is the viewpoint most essential in
determining the ultimate value of any such BILL
