PIECE WORK AGAIN
IN RAILROAD SHOPS
Pennsylvania and New Haven
Return to Old Plan and
Others Will Adopt 1T.

That the growth or the company
union" idea will result in the return Of
piece work with a consequent increase
in railroad shop labor efficiency and Il
possible reduction in shop personnel is
the assertion OF both bankers and rail-
road executives. They declare that
because OF these and other beneficial
results the fight against the shopmen's
union has been well worth while.
The shopcrafts as a national nstitu-
tion has been broken up, according to
all the carriers which have steadfastly
refused to become parties TO any sort OF
agreement originating either from Chi
cago or Baltimore. The company unions
which already are In effect on a num-
ber of important systems afford shop
workers the opportunity for direct deal
ing with their employers and the further
advantage of greater earning capacity
through efficient. diligent work.
Increase In the efficiency and speed of
repairs are estimated to be around 50
or 40 per cent. when shops are run on
a piece work basis. Piece work fell by
the way with the advent of Federal con-
troll and since thu return TO private
management strenuous efforts have
been made to bring back the old order.
IL is the aim of every official whose
men have approved the company union
idea to weave into tho working agree
ment provision for piece work. and sue
cess of this plan is believed certain.
Company unions already have been
organized by the New Haven. Delaware
& Hudson, Lehigh Valley. Pennsylvania,
Rock Island. Illinois Central. Atchson.
Union Pacific, New York. Ontario &
Western and Lackawanna. In the case
VI tho Pennsylvania and New Haven
systems the men already are on the
piece work basis. Other roads which
have not as yet formed company unions
ere expected to do so with the excentioa

done hereabout 1t is no exaggeration
to say that there are hundreds of To-
Calities in Vermont where just as fine
apples can be grown as here in Rut-
land and Bennington counties.
Addison county's lake shore has
never been adequately tried out as
apple growing country Grand Isle
apples are already well-known and
find an immediate market. Chitten-
den county orchards are not so many
as the soil warrants, while Franklin
county apple orchards have been neg
lected, to say the least.
An exhibit from Brattleboro at this
recent apple show showed some of the
finest apples ever seen here, particu-
larly the Baldwins, and it is undoubt-
eddy true that the Connecticut, White.
River, Passumpsic, Mad River and
probably Winooski valleys on the "east
side" of the state have possibilities
that have never been developed
Just as soon as a generation is born
in Vermont that is willing to try some
thing else beside dairy farming, there
is likely to be a horticultural develop
ment in this state that will materially
change the agricultural outlook. -Rut-

TRADE AT HOME

With the approach of the Christ
mas buying season, the early prepar-
alton of local merchants for this annual
merchandising event is noticeable.
Middlebury will present attractive
and satisfying gift selections for the
people of this vicinity this year and
there is every reason for the patronage
OF the home merchants in the purchase
of Christians gifts A good idea will
be to watch the Christmas advertis-
ing as the local stores unfold their
stories in the Register and then make
early tours and inspections of the dis
plays. If this is done you will be sur
prised at the array of seasonable mer-
chandise and your shopping will be
an easy and pleasant task, without the
necessity Of leaving the confines of your
own town The point is to start in
early

VOCATIONAL TRAINING

After December 10th no applications
will be received by the Veterans Blu
reau for vocational training. The date
was fixed by act of Congress, and
probably will not be extended. The
Bureau has used every means to locate
all deserving ex-soldiers and inform
them Of their rights as to training and
compensation Mopping-up squads
have secured remote sections of the
country i'll the search for men who had
not heard of what the government was
offering them, and it is believed that
practically every individual entitled to
relief has been found
Not only are the men being given
vocational education according to their
ability, but through the effort of the
Veterans Bureau they are being placed
in paying positions as fast as they are
graduated
Nearly every employer of labor is
giving preference to the ex-servIce men
in filing vacancies in his establish
ment

WHY WORRY

DR.. Edmund l. Gros, department
commander OF the American Legion in
Continental Europe rejects the New
Orleans convention He charges the
Legion with rowdyism, gambling
drunkenness, in short accuses the whole
convention Of being a disorderly mob
The Doctor must be troubled with
a weak stomach, or jaundice, or some
chronic disorder Noise apparently
distresses him Crowds annoy and ir-
ritate him.
That the "Buddes" in New Orleans
cut loose in a carefree, and perhaps
boisterouS, manner, was only t, be eX-
pected when American youth congre-
gate from the four corners of the Coun-
try in an annual occasion of this kind.
But that their meeting was ANYTHING
but what it should have been is en-
phatically denied by the Mayor of New
Orleans who paid the highest compli-
ment to the behavior of the Legion
naires while in the southern city, and
each hotel when canvassed for com
plants, reported that there was none
to make as to the behavior OF the
Legion as an organization or the dele
gates as indiViduaIS
DR. Gros should resign from the Le-
gion to avoid contamination that might
prove the ruin of his health and his
morals. He is in dangerous company.
DR. eros rejects" the New Orleans
convention but there are hundreds of
thousands of others, who live in Am
erica and not in Paris, who accept"
it. So why worry?

COMMUNICATION
Sarah 7. Hurlburt

Editor Register:
| notice the announcement, in a re
cent issue of your paper, of the idyin}
away in the Weybridge Hill Cemetery
Of the remains of Sarah J. Hurlburt
Mrs, Hurlburt having lived for severa
years in California, was not we'll knCwr
to the present generation living il
Weybridge and vicinity, but | am sure
that the girls and boys of thirty year,
ago would like to join me in paying
special tribute to her memory. The
name Of Sarah Hurlburt will always re.
main sweet memory with those who
came under her influence during that
period of her ripe womanhood. Her
spirituality was shown in her face. To
come under the influence of her life
was benediction. She was ever re-
tlecting the spirit of her Master who
dominated her life, but was so practi-
cal in her application of christian prin-
ciples, and so human in her relation
ships that She was a constant incen-
tive to right living. No one but the
Divine Recorder knows the final fruit
age of the many influences for right
eousness which she set going.
Vermont girls and boys who go out
into the world after having come in
touch with life like hers, enjoy a
greater heritage The uplifting power
OF such lives helps tremendously in
holding a Nation to its highest ideals.

A HANDICAP

Compensation, or subsidy provided in
the proposed shipping BILL aims to pro-
vide, together with the indirect aids
of the bill, an amount of assistance to
American ships that would enable them
to compete on approximately even
terms with their foreign competitors
precisely as the protective tariff aims
TO equalize wage costs between Amer
lean and foreign factories, according to
recent statement made by the Am
erican Steamship Owners Association
to the U. S. Shipping Board
In an argument for subsidy, the
Association presents some interesting
comparisons as to wages on cargo-car-
rying steamers, domestic and compel
ing. For instance, in the New York
East India service, the American
Steamer The Lamb operated by the
L, S. Shipping Board, an oil burner of
6,629 gross tons, pays wages monthly
to its % white officers and men of So
$3.50 while the British vessel loren
70" a coal burner of COOS gross tons,
pays Sl,S65.jS monthly in wages to A
British and Asiatic crew of 104. The
coal burning American steamer, EAST.
port 1885 gross tons, manned by 80
officers AM men, pays $3.50 in wages,
while Beia'ar steamer Of 52iG tons
pays SL392l2 to Al officers and men
monthly. Both boats are ompctIrs
H. the transatlantic trade.
These comparisons are of wage; only
When living standards are compared
another large difference is found b.
tween the American and the foreign
boats The quality of the American
sailors mess is far superior to that of
any other. He will not put up with
bean soup, salt pork. and lime juice,
with a bareback thrown in. The La
Toilette law provides also that he shall
have other creature comforts such as
an abundance of sleeping space, bath
ing facilities, and the like, while the
foreign seaman gets what is left after
the vessel is loaded There is no desire
on the part of American shipping men
to lower the standards enjoyed by the
American sailors, but they do make mp
a total of expense which handicaps our
operators in competition with foreign
carriers

MAIL PARCELS EARLY

The Christmas season is always
strenuous one for the postoftice EN-.
ployes This year, besides the endles,
sacks Of Christmas mail to sweat and
hustle over, they will have an added
burden because OF the extra work in
volved in redeeming War Savings Ger
tihcates for the Treasury Department
The War Savings Certificates fall due
on the first of January. More than
two and one-half carloads of paper re-
quired for the printing Of fifteen million
of cards which are to go through the
mails I'd certificate holders, urging them
to redeem their certificates in advance
or to exchange them for Treasury Say
ings Certificates In addition to this
great mass OF printed matter there
have been prepared six million forms
for distribution among postmasters and
for use as interim receipts in exchange
lor war Savings Certlhcates pending
the arrival Of Treasury funds to re-
deem them.
The redemption of the certificates
will not only mean a great deal more
work for the postal clerks, and, in the
smaller offices, the postmasters them
selves, but will add a huge bulk to the
mails during the holiday season when
they are already at their maximum.
More than ever this year the people
should heed the advice of the post
office department and wrap, address
and mail their Christmas packages
EARLY. BY so doing they will insure
better delivery Of gifts, and besides
take Zig load off the heavily burdened
shoulders of the postoffice clerks.

Herald Issues Warning

The Herald is no alarmist and doe,
not propose to play any ones game
by shouting wolf, wolf when there
is no wolf, but the coal situation calls
for attention.
According to the reports of Local
dealers, Rutland is getting, not the
fifty per cent of normal anthracite
supply promised, but less than thirty
per cent; up to the present, it appears
about ten per cent.
What follows?
People who are depending on a sup
ply of anthracite and making no pro-
vision for substitute are going to be
pinched. There is no anthracite here
in the sense Of being available, and
there will be around thirty per cent
only shipped here if the railroads
have good luck
Meanwhile soft coal coke, wood or
suffering
There is no escape from the situa-
ton, as the figures state it. There is
plenty of soft coal on hand and deal
ers are ready to supply it, but CON
sumers are holding off hoping against
hope that somehow there will be an
thracite for ALL
If figures and averages mean any
thing, if railroad troubles are even of
normal winter type, there will not be
half enough anthracite to go around,
perhaps not over thirty per cent sup
ply.
Meanwhile dealers are not stocking
soft coal because people won't buy it,
or try it, even, in most cases. The
dealers can't fill up their storage with
a commodity that isn't moving, and
unless there are a lot of soft coal or
ders filed within a week or two there
will be acute suffering around Christ
mas and New Years.
The Herald's frank advice to those
who are burning what anthracite they
can get is-don't Save it for worse
weather, and meanwhile, put in what
hard wood YOU can. Order two or
three tons of soft coal, to be delivered
as convenient, and if you can get a
little coke, use that to bank wood
fire at night until the weather turns
more Furnishing.
Once more, burn soft coal, coke or
wood or there won't be any fuel at all
available when the inevitable rush
comes with the inset of zero weather

A TEMPORARY SLUMP

The slight depression in the new Az
per cent government bonds is but tenn
porary, and must be attributed to the
Glow back that attends every large
distribution of bonds. As subscribers
to the issue have adjusted their actual
needs to the allotment given them by
the Treasury Department, thousands
OF the bonds have been thrown on the
market, and they have been sold at
the rate of more than a million dollars
a day since they were issued. Invest
ment bankers declare that the flow
back of bonds of all kinds that have
been sold this year is much less than
usual, and it is probable that the price
of the new government issue will
speedily recover and start a steady
climb well over par.
The long term of the bonds, 80 years,
is alone sufficient to make them the
most desirable form of Federal secur-
tiles now available.
