are now operating, general reduc-
tion in rates should not precede fur
Their readjustment of wages and other
expenses.
But an orderly liquidation OF wages
can only come through the processes
set up by the transportation act. Two
outstanding facts about the railroad
labor situation at present are that the
wages of certain classes of employees
are out of line with wages paid in 9th
er industries and that some railroads,
in their zeal TO force wages down, are
evading the spirit, of not the letter,
of the transportation act, by farm
ing out long-established railroad func-
tons, such as track maintenance, To-
connective repairing and the handling
OF freight at terminals, to private con-
tractors.
II may be noted that il these un-
authorized wage reductions continue,
the weight of the argument for delay
ing rate reductions win be impaired.
II the railroads are unwilling to wait
for an orderly reduction of rates.
cannot expect the public to wait long
for an Orderly reduction of rates.
1t is to be feared, moreover, that
the spectacle OF an inordinately
wealthy railroad like the Lackawan-
ma, which last year earned a surplus OF
over sle0o0,000, refusing TO pay the
established rate for freight handling,
viii have a disintegratng effect on the
morale Of railroad workers generally.
And it must appear that the labor
board, which was designed for the pur-
pose of securing for the country unin-
terrupted service, is having It's useful
ness undermined by all these devices or
subterfuges for erading its authority.

amount ought to go far toward putting
That struggling institution on its finan-
fial feet and enable it to enlarge its
scope of usefulness to the young peo-
pie. The Kurn Hattin Homes is an
Institution that has been dependent to
considerable extent on the benev-
Dlently inclined public, and perhaps il

much more assured by reason of the

Judging by some of the comment in
pfiicial circles, the public can sit down
and be merely a passive spectator of
The threatened strike Of several hun
ired thousand coal miners. This com
ment Is based on the fact that there
are huge reserves of both hard and
soft Goals and that non-union miners
will be enabled TO supplement that
reserve so that there is two months
supply Of coal above ground. On the
face Of things. that theory carries
conviction. But when one stops 70
consider that every suspension of work.
however much it may seem to be $50
lated, reacts against the worlds ac-
stimulation of money and property it
i somewhat easier to believe that in
the end the public win not be an en-.
tirely disinterested spectator Of the
,oal strike. even though the suspen-
lion Of work in that industry may rot
result in an increased cost Of coal The
public always loses something when
production in any one branch Of ae-
hFity stops.

en- los humildes muebles del Gposen-
to, como sf buscase algO precioso que
legar sus hijas. De pronto, tendi0
las manos en- direction al reloj, como
si quisiera recoger el reflejo de sol
que llenaba de claridad ell muro
i Ell relOj-tmurmur6e- FL reloj !!
Ya mo- tiene cuerda!
Efectivamente, el pemdulo dorado,
que como un pliial cortaba ell hilo del
tempo, habfase detenido y brillaba,
quietO, en- La diafanfdad de Ii urna.
i Ell reloj !-volvi6 clamar el mo
ribundO.
La hija mayor llam0 entonceS la

dillaS, presentarOnsela entire sus bra
EOS al moribundo, como 81 fuer& su
primer nietO.
Ocn naanO tremula, ell anciano busc6
el coraz6n de la maquina dot0la de
moviniento eXpensas Me SUI vida.
Las lrij&s callahan, como 81 cOmpren-
diesen toda Ia misteriosa sOlemnidad
del instante. Cuando ell anciano vol

Pero sus ojos sonrefan, como si su
alma tuviese la conciencia de haber-
