As to Understanding
(New York Times)

'-Nt" VI n IiIlltS)
The latest cry Of alarm raised by
the railway strikers is that the man
ayers of the roads are plotting to
break up the unions. Mr.. Gompors
is officially Mortified at the s!Sns
of a unified union sma shing cam
paign.' The evidence he produces
does not bear out the Interpretation
which he places upon il, and with
the obvious facts in the case he does
not deal. Instead of being smashed,
the railway unions are government
tally recognized by the Transporta-
ton act and by the proceedings Of
the Railroad Labor Board under it.
Moreover, between the railway exec
utives and all the unions, except
those of the Federated Shop Crafts
who struck. the relations are am
icablc. Both by law and in practice
collective bargaining for railroad en-
ployes had been placed in a position
apparently more secure than ever
before.
Who impcriled il? Who set about
the union smashing? Jndeniably
the striking shopmen. They took
themselves out from under the iuriE-
diction of the Labor Board, thereby
leaving the latter with no shop crafts
organization with which to deal
This began the campaign to smash
the unions, if anything did, But
there is no such campaign. There
is campaign to make the unions
responsible. to hold them to their
contracts, to urge the need of in
ducing or compelling them 0 submit
to lawful decisions of a lawful agency
of the Government But that does
not mean smashing the unions No
one can smash them except the
unions themselves.

A DELIGHTFUL FRUIT FARM

1t it is true that ''he who makes
two blades of grass grow where
one grew before is benefactor,"
then what must we say OF one
who transforms prairie dog town
into a delightful fruit farm in
the space of a few years under
Western South Dakota conditions.
Lorenzo Falzone has done this on
his farm near Milesville.
Two years ago Holstein almost
destroyed his orchard, but the
trees are coming out in good shape
and promise an abundance of fruit
for home use this year.
When asked concerning the fin
ancial returns from his fruit, Mr..
Falzone replied that his greatest
returns are the pleasure of the
work and the satisfaction of liv-
ing among the beauties which
these growing fruits afford.
Other farmers might well absorb
some of Mr.. Falzone's enthusiasm
One hears farmers lament that
they have no time left from the
field work to develop groves and
orchards. This merely means that
they are so busy making living
that they have no time left for
living. Is it not time that we be-
gin to think of permanent homes
real homes with groves and
shrubs and fruits to beautify the
farmstead and make homelife more
attractive? A number of farmers
are already working along this line
