The employees petition charged violation of the act and of decisions of the labor board. Representatives of the road denied both. The case resulted from an or der. effective February ]. reducing common labor wages and deducting one days pay week from the salar- ies Of all employees paid on monthly basis.
 Most of the argument centered about whether ruling Ot the board February l2. ordering the road to make no change in wage rates was compulsory on the road. which had put a reduction into effect.

HOW TO CHOOSE GOOD
BOOKS FOR CHILDREN

(Third> in series of articles by
Miss Freda Glover, assistant librarian
at the Umatilla county Lbrary.)
Avoid stories having superfluous
activity-too many incidents pulling
away from his central theme. This
steady march of incidents toward one
most important one might be called
economy of incidents. There must al
ways be enough incidents however, to
make the story convincing.
The supernatural should appear only
at the ultimate moment and then in
amount of strength only sufficient to
accomplish the result. The story
should never pivot around lie, an act
of disloyalty or irreverence All
coarseness should be eliminated. Too
much bloodshed and physical horror
is to be avoided but it is unwise to be
too squeamish about this-"Off with
his head" to a child doesn't bring up
mental picture of blood and a corpse
and a sordid murder trial, as it does
to US. In their stories it merely SER
YES as a neat and convincing way of
disposing Of evil witches and hostile
magicians. 1t is the result of good
triumphing over evil.

It is to re-estab,ish the old basis
that the carriers are now making nu-
merous Fourth Section applications
Personally, | do not think these APP
plications should be allowed,
] do not believe it necessary that
the carriers be permitted in every in
stance, to meet water competition, as
they will be able to secure u great
portion of the business without these
lower terminal rates, for the reason
that water transportation service v
inferior to rail service in many ways.

offers none of the privileges such as

switching services at terminal points,
Claims for loss and damages are not
so readily settled. The maritime laws
seem to give more protection TO the
boats, and the shippers must go 10
the courts for redress and there are
other advantages which the railroads
have over the boats
l do not believe the public should
expect, high standard of service
such as is offered by railroads in nor
