tember 30.-Since the settlement of
the railroad strike many tips have
come from Wall street relative to the
purchase of railroad securities. Rela-
tive to these recommendations Roger
w. Babson today issued the follow
ing statement:
There is no doubt but that the
settlement of the railroad strike is
favorable to general business. Ow-
ing to the coal situation, such a set
tlement was absolutely necessary.
Moreover, it has been more or less
favorable to the railroads. The wage
workers have gone back at the rates
determined by the Railroad Labor

did it. The seniority question was
settled on a fifty-tifty basis, neither
side claiming a victory. This also
is we'll for all concerned, because the
railroads are now able to restore
seniority rights to the good men who
deserve them, and to withhold them
is justified in sending out reports
that the settlement Is favorable to
railroad securities.
1.-THE settlement Of the strike on
the present basis should also prompt
both sides to count ten before an
other strike is precipitated. In other
words, the railroad strike was eX-
pensive for both the railroads and
wage workers. The wage workers
today realize that the railroads are
stronger and better able to handle
a labor situation than has been the
case for many years, while the rail-
roads have greater respect for the
labor unions than they have had
heretofore. All of this means that
when another difference arises both
sides will be anxious to patch up
the difficulty before strike is called

tate a strike, as seems to have been
