The public as usual the chief sufferer in this test OF power
The strike contrary to the provisions OF the 1920 trans

no power enforce it's decisions The railroads have
openly fouted the law which recognized the principle OF
collective bargaining The Pennsylvania, the Atlantic,
Birmingham Atlantic and other systems have deed It,
and now the brotherhoods following their example,
Neither side has clean hands
The railroads seek the destruction of unionism. The
boherhoods seek enforce government ownership under
the Plumb plan to perpeuate their power The railroads
have grievance to the nefcency OF labor and the
wastefu conditions the unions have arbitrarily established
Union rules have curaed production and unnecessarily in
operating expense and the railroads seek end to
the domination.

their savings of lifetime in trust
therein, whether they realize the
enormous lot of clerical work that

I'm saying this to bring to mem
ory the blessing we often have and
don't give thought to. In early
days here when banks were few

own few twenties, in gold, put
them In a empty shot sack and
handed them over to the store
keeper for safe keeping. / will
