OUR TAXES AND WHY

" L
In the issue of Jan. 26, the Record
states that sat the instance Of certain
parties" a County Engineer was hired.
The County Engineer will say that
about Jan. l, 1921, he entered into
correspondence with the Emmons
Coupty Commissioners, receiving re-
phys from several of them. I was
informed of the, date Of the Feb.
meeting and was told that the road
work would be taken up at that meet
ing. was present during all Of the
session, presented my recommends
tions and stated my proposition to the
Board. It was finally decided that
the Commissioners would interview
the State Engineer regarding the ap-
pointment before the April Meeting
and the matter was postponed until
then. The State Engineer was in
/, terviewedand during March and April
I had had several talks with the Com
missioners. At the April meeting
the Federal Highway contracts were
let, the State Engineer was present
and again interviewed and for vari-
GUS reasons the matter still could not
be decided. It was not until just be-
fore the adjournment, after three
months work on my part that I was
able to get a signed contract.
The members of the Board were
well aware of the cost when they
signed the EXORBITANT CON-
TRACT. In fact, the next expence
of the Engineers Office has proved far
less than was anticipated by both the
Board and the Engineer, as can be
verified by my report submitted to
the County Commissioners at the jan
uary meeting. /.
I will also say that the members
with whom I had the most trouble
regarding my contract, after seeing
mywork during the past ten months
are now my best friends, and they
know that they made very good in
vestment for the County.
The writer is pleased to know that
he was hired at the instance of GER
tain local partiesand thanks the Rec
ord for the information, never the
less he is still at loss to know whom
they were, for nearly every one with
whom he talked before the contract
was signedwere not very friendly.
AS yet / know Of no individuals, ex-
cept EMMONs COUNTY who have
gained anything, but I do know a few
individuals who have lost and they to-
gether with few "chronic kickers''
seem to be the ones to whom. the
RECORD is CATERING.
The Record also states that "half
Of all the cost when he is employed
on the Federal Highway Projects shall
be paid back to, the County from the
State and Federal funds" another
instance where our County Saviour
Edoes not know what he is talking
about. For the information Of the

bad, only eleven wagons were struck by
cars. During the next day, although il
was clear, forty wagons were hit. The
reason for this, Mr.. Morgan explained,

PROCESS
OF HUMANIZING
CITY RAIL WORK
Manager of Brooklyn City
Lines Gets in Touch With
Employees.

BROOKLYN, Feb. 22.-Humanizing the
electric railway industry in Brooklyn is
the task undertaken by Clinton e. Nor
ran, general manager Of the Brooklyn
City Railroad Company, who, at series
Of day and night mass meetings, is ad-
dressing the 1000 workers employed on
the Borough's surface lines. Assembly
ing the men Of both the Brooklyn City
and the B. r. T. organizations at the
various depots, Mr.. Morgan is urging
close cooperation between mana cement
and labor in the interest of the COM
panies and the public.
SEES NEW ERA IN
LABOR SITUATION.
Mr.. Morgan and his associates look
for a new era in the labor situation on
the Brooklyn surface system. Heads of
departments are Joining Mr.. Morgan in
the plan of linking the executive offices
more closely with the power house and
tn car barn. Dozens of speeches have
been made and the response, according
to the Brooklyn city officials, has been
immediate and emphatic. 1t was even
said that at no time, were labor con-
ditions better In the Brooklyn surface
lines which are operated as a unit, than
they are today. Concrete advantages
in fewer accidents, less delays and quick
er service to the public are already
noticeable. One of the biggest things

railway Industry than in most railway
industries. He cited the case of a GER
tilted public accountant, who, having lost
his job, said that work as a motorman or
conductor was more profitable. Though
he received 5000 a year as an account
ant, his employment was so irregular
that his net earnings for the year were
less than those Of a motorman or con-
ductor.
BREAKING
IN NEW MEN.
Greater care is being taken to break
In new men on the Brooklyn surface sys-
TEN. In the old days, 1t was said, the
training was not such as to promote eff
cheney or cooperation. Now, great pains
are being taken to teach the newcomer
every essential of the operation of q car.
Avoidance of delays is being urged by
Mr.. Morgan on the motormen. Motor
men can do whole. lot to improve the
service" is Mr.. MOrgan's message to this
group Of workers. Watch the people on
the street and try to stop for them so that
there will be less delay. 90 not try to
hit all the mud holes, but when you make
a stop do not run up against the Rock OF
Gibraltar. Let us make decent stops. Do
not annoy passengers. They don't like
to have the back Of their necks snapped
off,"
Dealing with taxes, Mr. Morgan cited
figures to show the difficulty encount-
cred by the electric railway because Of
their relative inability to pass the In
crease on to the consumer. Taxes on
the electric railways, he said, are al
most IS per cent of the gross receipts.

results of the Chicago conference of

Several members of the federation are

which William II. Johnston, president OF
the International Association of Ma
ehinists, is presiding. While officials of
the organize ton have maintained silence
On the Chicago meeting, the object of
which is to unite liberal and radical or
ganization into a common course Of po
liticaI action, they may have forced upon
them consideration of the results of The
meeting.
Efforts in New York legislature to pass
a bill carrying out the Kansas Industrial
Court idea will be given special attention
with a view to concentrating all possible
efforts against the measure now pending.
The growing use of the union to pre-
gent strikes and recent Supreme Court
decisions bearing upon the practices in
Industrial controversies, involving picket
ing and Iockouts, is to be considered for
the purpose of quilting a course Of action.
The question Of relations with the In
