Daniel Willard, president of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad says
the lowering of wages will not cause
a reduction of rates. He says the
roads are not earning enough now
to pay interest, some of them not
even taxes. If the watered stock
and charges against the railroads
not necessary to their operation
were eliminated the roads would be
earning enough at much lower
transportation rates.

British Labor Campaigns for Irish
Freedom
For the purposes of the Labor
campaign in Great Britain in sup
port of its Irish. policy the country
has been divided into 9 or 10 areas,
and it is intended that no less than
100 large meetings, as well as a
considerable number of smaller

is likely that lantern slide views of

During the summer one scholar
ship had been withdrawn and one
new one granted. the latter to a

ent the committee is giving no
scholarships to children who are un-

every case the child can be kept in
school without scholarship aid. In

make further education possible to

TO have them do so. Unfortunately
this work is expensive and so tn,

the end OF the three days battle il
emerged with 247 men able to ham
die a bayonet.
Colonel Bryan paid a tribute to
the Boy Scout movement saying, my
experience on the Hindenberg line
taught me that the best soldiers were
men who understood self-control and
consideration for others. These are
two things which the Boy Scout or
ganization teaches"
Prior to the remarks of Colonel
6ryan, the Rotarians were addressed
by Frank A. Greenhawk, Scout Ex-
ecutive of Delaware, who recently
returned from a visit to France
where the American scout leaders
conferred with the Boy Scout leader
there. In the course of his remarks
Mr.. Greenhawk explained that while
abroad he invited the two hundred
