In excluding the six shop unions
from further consideration of the
board, Mr. Hooper denied that the
board had coined in a drive of the
financial interests against organized
labor
you must know. Mr.. Jewell" the
chairman wrote, that you do this
board grave injustice and yourself
no credit when you characterize the
board as unfrieudly to your organi-
zations and being implicated in a
drive of the financial interests
against the employees.
"Tou are too well aware of the nu-
merous instances in which the board
as upheld all the railway labor or
carnations, recognized their right to
function, declaring their rights of col
lective bargaining and sustaining
them in their resistance to efforts
made here and there TO deprive them
# their rights and privileges. In fact,
may say without fear of success
ful contradiction that this has been
Inc uniform policy of the Labor Board.
But becausc we nave thus recog-
nized the rights of the employees, n
does not follow that we can or should
agree with them in every contention
or that we should ignore the rights
and interests of the public.
81 am yet quite hopeful that your
organizations will recover their equi
librium and discern that it is vastly
better for them to go along with the
Railroad Labor Board, patiently when
il makes mistakes, but confidently at
all times that it profoundly desires to
do Justice to the men, the carriers
and the public, without fear, favor or
affection"
Declaring that the outlawing of the
unions was merely formality of an
nouncing fact which Mr.. Jewell had
previously communicated to the board,
the chairman pointed out that the
board had always recognized the right
of q majority of any class of employees
their representatives, to make
agreements with the carriers. Such
agreements, Mr.. Hooper added. ap-
plied TO non-union as well as union
men. i'm the class for which the union
negotiated.
1T necessarily follows that when
certain employees went out Of the en-
ploy of the carrier a majority of those
who remained in and those who may
subsequently enter will be entitled to
rcpresent all Of any given class of
employees in any dispute before the
Railroad labor Board" said Chair
man Hooper's letter. "The board will
lot cease to function merely because
certain employees leave the service,
nor will the Transportation act be
1rulled."

Marines Are Ready To Break
Camp At Gettysburg

Gettysburg, Pa, July 6.-All ma
neuvers were called off at Camp
Harding yesterday and officers and
men devoted hours to digging them
selves and the camp out o. the
mud. Biz trucks, tractors and
other motors worked all day to get
the equipment in position for
breaking camp tomorrow.
Tents, bedding and other mater
ials were laid out under the warm
sun to dry and the camp had its
first fully clear day in a week. A
number of the airplanes left today
for Quantico, the others will follow
later. There will be no maneuvers
on the march back and the planes
will not be needed except for mail
service.
Delighted with the success Of the
10 days work here, officers already
are making arrangements in con
temptation for next years tour of
duty. Last year the Wilderness
was used by the marines for their
maneuvers and Manassas is spoken
of as the likely place for 1928.
Scores of places throughout the
country have asked for the camp
next year. but it is the idea to have
scenes of historical interest used
regularly because of their peculiar
adantability for movements of
troops and the lessons OF patriotism
that they teach. These features
have been outstanding az Camp
Harding, and Gen. Smedley d. But
Ter, the commandant, today express
sed his pleasure over the results
accomplished.
Not only have the men profited,
but the maneuvers have been a
great patriotic influence throughout
the country, and there already has
been a marked result in the recruit

LOCAL STRIKE
SITUATION
IS UNCHANGED
Men Say Yards Are Tied up
and Few Strikebreakers
At Work
MEETING TO-DAY

The principal business before the
railroad men, who walked out Sat
urday, at their mass meeting at
the armory today was receiving
reports.
The men declare that they are
well satisfied with the results thus
far obtained. According to state
ments given out by them a few
strikebreakers have arrived recent
ly but are quitting their jobs almost
as soon as they corle. Ii also is
claimed by the men that q few cler-
ical men have been taken on but
that they are unable to cope with
the situation.
The men say that Potomac yards
is operating in a haphazard fashion
and that the Southern still contin-
ues tied up pretty tight. 1t also is
said by the men that freight is now
being delayed owing to the inability
of the few men they have to give
the needed repairs to the locomo-
tives and that conditions will be-
come worse when the engines need
more attention.
1t is reported that about fifty
strikebreakers, colored, have been
imported to the Potomac yards,
union officials having received this
information today.
Railroad officials at both the Po-
tomac and Southern claim that
freight is still moving and that they
are doing as well as could be ex-
pected,
The men who walked out feel en-
couraged over the situation thus far
and claim that conditions at the
yards will continue to grow worse.

POEM BY UNCLE JOHN
sEAsoNAeLE STUFF.

The season for vacations is upon US
once again. The business, shot to
pieces, has produced an extry strain.
A feller's got to get away to rest a.
while, you know, so the most impor-
tant question is, where's he goin' to
go? With Europe shot to pieces, an
her scenery gone to smash-bestdes,
the rumpus didn't leave an overplus
of cash. There amt the old induce
ments for to breast the oceans foam,
an it really amt desirable to go so
fur from home. The question grows
perplexin' as they often will, We know,
the hour keeps drawir' higher, but
where are you goin' to go?
| well-there's the Rocky Mountains
| try-iadders TO the skies--or, ths
Northern Lakes is calm from per-
feet Paradise. You can rest In Eden:
Gyarden on our whole Atlantic coasi
or journey to the Sunny South th'
| land l love the most. Go where thu
Old Pacific cools the Californy Belle
or, Yosemite, the fairyland, or Florida
the Queen, or up among the Catskilli
to place you never seen. You car
tackle Arizony where the Canyon
splits the earth,--and none Of 'em will
cost we more'n a tenth of what III
worth! Huh,-talk about vacations
drives me to despair when think a
bout the idiots that's alters askin
"Where?"
