ments Hamilton has made through a
progressive understanding with labor.
He was greeted with much applause.
The chairman of the convention in
troduced Father Deitz, of Cincinnati,
who also expressed his attitude to-
wards the building trades. In his
talk Father Deitz brought up the pro-
ject in reference to educating the
younger building tradesmen which
will soon be in operation in Cincin-
natl. A few resolutions were intro
duced and which will likely meet the
approval of the delegates and will
likely be adopted by the convention

Trades are well impressed with the
city of Hamilton, and from what we
can learn are very desirous of stay
ing over for another week.

KINDERGARTEN AT

The attendance of children at the
Monroe school kindergarten does not
Justify its continuance. Many of the
pupils attending the Monroe kinder
garten live nearer to the Harrison
school than they do to the Monroe.
Many more pupils will attend kin
dergarten at the Harrison school than
at the Monroe In view of these facts
the school authorities have decided to
abandon for the present the kinder
garten at the Monroe and to open one
at the Harrison.

MATERNITY
INSURANCE

Berne, Switzerland.-The Swiss
government is studying the question
of increased maternity insurance. Last
year the federal council expressed
these views on this question:
at is obvious that the loss of life
experienced by the beligerent states
makes more effcacious protection of
mothers and children essential. Even
in Switzerland, where the number of
births continue to decrease, apart
from considerations of a moral or
socio-political character, it would be
advisable to devote more attention to
general hygienic measures likely to
ensure and safeguard the health and
strength of future generations by
combating more energetically and sys-
tematically than in the past the in
furious effects of the employment OF
women before and after childbirth
This question is of Importance to
Switzerland from the point of view
also of the proposed infrmity insur-
ance, for, in the opinion of experts
adequate protection of women during
confinement win tend to prevent thou
sands of cases of infrmity"

Washington.-The A. T. of L. in
letter signed by Samuel Gompers and
addressed to all national and interna-
tional unions, state federations of la
Dor and city central bodies, requests
that copies of all injunctions issued in
labor cases and of decisions of courts
relating to labor be sent to the pres
ident of the federation. The object of
collecting these data is to be in posi-
ton to give information to all labor
organizations as to methods of pro-
cedure in cases of injunctions and to
help them in court cases. The Denver
convention of the A. F. of l.. adopted
strong resolutions against unwarran-
label injunctions restraining labor or
ganizations from adopting legitimate
means to maintain American living
standards. Not only are the courts
overstepping constitutional rights,
the letter declares, "but they are
building wall of class destination
by enjoining trade unions from do
ing certain things that are declared
lawful when done by associations of
employers. Not long ago one judge
who represents the reactionary mem
bers of the judiciary declared it to be
the duty of the courts to stand at all
times as the representatives of capi-
tai in labor struggles"

very serious period of unemployment
has been helpful to them in their
greedy purpose. They cannot destroy
us, but they can injure as, and we ap-

their valuable and helpful papers,
that if organized labor will support
us by buying Union Made Cigars, it

simply cut out the lonting of men, the

Any one can do It.
THE bookkeeping Of railroads Is
complicated far beyond all necessity. we
have simplifed this department, reduced
it's cost, and have transformed It into
an actual help TO the railroad instead
OF a burden. We did il by viewing the
whole proposition as n service TO the
users Of railroads and making every
thing fit into that. instead of having the

operate as a unit almost as though
| they were one piece. When the car goes
around curve one wheel has to travel
further than the other. Since they
are on the same axle and one cannot
turn without the other, this makes il
necessary that one wheel should slip on
the rnil. There are theoretical com
pcnRations which il Ia claimed take care
Of this difference Of distance Travelled
by wheels, but they are not real COM
pensntions.
Revolution in Car Types
What we have set out to do is to
design an axle that will allow for this
difference. We have already solved the
problem. But in doing so we have
greatly reduced the weight of the under
gear Of every car.
1--WE are going to make some revolu
tionary changes. We find that the pre-
sent types Of rolling stock can be greatly
improved. On the Detroit, Toledo and
lronton we are using up the old types
of engine and car, but they will be dis.
placed by better types.
Great weight in trains calls for cor.
respondingly heavy rails and ties.
Builders Of rolling stock have regarded
UT nave pGeIenueu 10 regard, size as an
evidence of advancement. They have
long ago passed the point of economy.
The third step. an immediate sten
which should he taken In the operation
of any great railrond system. would be
cXpCditing the journey Of the freight
carrier. On the Detroit, Toledo and
lronton we tolerate no Idle men. Trains
on side tracks are proof of inefficient
fIhnyr ip y,,,I,
moving.
Our experience illustrates this.
The road we have acquired runs north
and south and crosses most of the
trnNscontinentNl lines. By speeding up
our freight on this preliminary part Of
its journey We have been able TO shorten
the time Of its delivery by periods rang
ing from seven to fourteen days.
1T means We carry on our books $50
600. 900 less undc'ivcred product than
We otherwise would. 1t would be still

Washington. Oct. 25.-How Henry
Ford would run the Pennsylvania or
other railroads Is told in the current Is
sue Of the Nations Business in an au
thorized interview, corrected by the De-
troit automobile leader. who few
months ago acquired the Detroit, To-
ledo and 1ronton Railroad. This inter
view, as published in the official journal
OF the United States Chamber of Com
merce, in part is as follows:
IF you wore operating a railroad
such as the Pennsylvania or the New
York Central" Mr.. Ford was asked.
how would you proceed?"
I'm any such case | would immedi-
ately set about accomplishing four
things, he replied. II would reorgan-
ize in such n way as to get rid Of the
unproductive stockholdrr. | would re-
design the rolling stock. l would eX.
pedite the delivery Of freight. | would
discharge unnecessary employees.
The real purpose of a railroad is 70
serve the public. There is no reason
why It should he diverted from that
service and set to doing an entirely diff
terent thing-puttinS money into the
pockets Of stockholders who make no
contribution TO the roads actual opera
tion.
There is possible and practical
system of financing railroads by which
those contributing the money Will be in
position to add directly to the success
of the undertaking. If the brakeman
on a railroad owns stock in it he has

service. If the railroad Is n success. i'll
