BY EDWARD W. P,ckARo

A BOUT $eO,ooo,Ooo having been
"A Topped off their yearly pay by
the federal railway labor board, the
railroad shopmen are taking vote re-
turnable on June 80, on the question
OF accepting the reduction or going on
strike. The maintenance Of way men.
whose annual wages were cut some
$500OO.OO0, also nre taking strike
vote.
Thus, apparently, the country faces a
strike, probably effective in the middle
of July. that might come near to ty-
ing up its rail transportation. But
there Is hope that 1t will not eventu-
ate. An affirmative strike vote and
an actual strike are different things,
and the vote is but seldom used only
as a weapon In the hands OF union Off
cials In negotiating. Railroad execu-
tives profess to believe that the men
will not even vote to strike. A COM
mittee OF six rail presidents issued the
following statement:
"There Is no talk of strike among
the men," the statement says. tile
disturbing statements are prepared by
leaders of the unions. whose viewpoint
has been distorted by months Of efforts
before the board to resist the iney-
liable downward trend Of wages. The
employees are in the main sincerely in
terested In taking care Of their jobs
and their homes, and few employees In
any industry have more good reasons
for doing so.
"The records show that the proposed
scale Of wages for the classes Of en-
ployees involved in the two wage re-
duction orders already issued practi-
cally would restore the scale in eff
feet at the end Of federal control in
1920, which carried an increase for
these employees Of 119 per cent over
the wages paid In 1915. The cost of
living, as shown by the Department Of
Labor for March. 1922, was 42 per cent
above 1916"
On the other hand. B. NJ. Jewell,
head of the railroad employees depart
ment of the American Federation Of
Labor. says: "The new wages do not
permit minimum living wage, and
they are wholly at variance with the
saving wage championed by President
Harding and Secretary Of Labor
Davis" Mr.. Jewell and other union
chiefs who were in conference In Gin
cinnati predicted that unions with a
membership Of 1900, 600 would vote to
strike.
Just as in the last previous wage de-
cision by the board, the three labor
members dissented. and this time they
were especially vigorous In their dis
senting opinion.
While the rulings of the railway la.
Dor board are professedly being made
quite without regard to the rulings OF
the interstate commerce committee In
the matter Of rates, the two cannot be
disconnected In the public mind, ant
the railway executives also couple
them, naturally.

THREE months have gene by
since the partnership of E. M.
i Fuller & Co, Consolidated
Stock Exchange operators, of New
York, failed for nearly 5000, 900,
leaving assets estimated at only a
cent and a half to the dollar of
liabilities.
Two indictments lie against the
partners, E. M. Fuller and w.
Frank McGee; one in the Federal
court pending more than two years
for using the mails to defraud; the
other in the county court for plain
swindling.
Here is surely a matter that needs
prompt probing.
If these traffickers with other
peoples money have failed hon
estly, they should be relieved of
all suspicion by verdict of ac-
quittal.
If they have perpetrated gigan-

they should be made to disgorge

Why Phone
Bills GrOU
THERE is one reason why even

il public service industries is

THERE is one reason why even
honest private management OF
i public service industries is
always costly to the public.
To attract investment capital,
corporations must pay from fifty
to one hundred per cent higher in
terest than the rate at which pub
lie bonds could be sold to finance
these industries if publicly owned.
The American Telephone and
Telegraph Company-owner of the
New York and most other tele-
phone companies-has perhaps the
best management of all our public
utilities.
The company has just raised
$115,000,000 by allowing holders Of
common stock to subscribe to new
common stock at par.
Before this offer American Tele-
phone and Telegraph raised the
dividend upon its outstanding stock
from per cent to 9 per cent.
1t said this extra per cent was
necessary to make the old common
stock sell in the market above par,
which would assure subscription Of
the new issue. So it has proved.
In order to get $115, 100000 for
necessary plant extensions, Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph
agreed to pay an additional divi-
dend of / per cent on 500, 100000
of stock, or 100000 per year.
Of course, you and we and all
other telephone users supply the
money for these extra dividends in
extra telephone charges.
For our telephone service we,
the people, pay rates high enough
to let A. T. & T. distribute per
cent on $700,000,000 stock, that is,
500, 100000 every year.
If the public owned the telephone
system it would today be raising
$115,000,000 by the issue of bonds
paying AZ per cent, instead of the
8 per cent securities now being put
out by the private company.
IL Jnere were SIUU,UUU,UOU OF ga
per cent public bonds outstanding,
instead of $7OO,OOO,OOO of 9 per
cent corporation stock, the annual
interest would be $29, 100000, in
stead of the $63,O0O,OOO now dis
tributed as corporation dividends.
To the best and fairest Of the
corporations operating our public
utilities we pay annually $33, $780,
900 more than we should have to
pay if the public owned the tele-
phone plant.
This situation, if it continues,
must in time lead to public owner
ship, in our opinion, by sheer force
of economic laws.
