General Committee Be-
lieyes Many Do Not
Understand
LIMITED BY M|lLAGE
Law Fixes Maximum for
Which District Can
Bond

At a meeting to be called early
next week by Chairman Fearnside
representatives from all districts af-
fected by the proposed road bond is
sue will be invited to come in and
take part in the final decision as to
specifications for the bond issue.
This action was decided on when it
was learned that there is some oppo
sition, especially in the Interlachen
district, to the plans as proposed by
the committee.
Interlachen's opposition is to hav-
mig Interlachen gravel on the road
between that city and the Marion
county line. They declare that they
prefer clay, if they cannot have brick,
but that they do not believe the peo-
pie of that district will vote for any
thing except brick. The Interlachen
district has no outstanding bond is
sue, but the valuation is just little
over 100000, and with the limit of
twenty mills under the state law it
could only issue bonds in the, sum of
$4,000. This, it is pointed out, is
not sufficient to put down a brick
road all the way from Palatka to the
Marion county line. This is the
problem facing the committee.
1t may be that some compromise
may be effected whereby the sup
port of Interlachen for bond issue
can be arrived at. If no agreement
can be reached the preponderance Of
sentiment is to go ahead and call g
bond issue for the Palatka, BostWicE
and East Palatka districts and built
the roads not included in the Inter
lachen district.
Sixteen-Foot Road Urged.
Secretary Hart, who returned
from Tallahassee this morning, sait
that everybody attending the sessions
of the state road department wer'
emphatic in saying that nothing les
than sixteen-foot roads should b.
built by any county Mr.. Hart is on
of the many who believe that i
there is any possible way to do
the road from Jacksonville to Palat
ka should be made sixteen feet al
the way, for as soon as road No. 4 i
put in it will be sixteen feet, an
those dependent on road No. 3 wit
a nine-foot roadway will be in tn
same position they are now, as a
motorists will take the sixteen-foo
road down the east coast by way Q
st. Augustine instead of coming thi
way.

SPEAKS
FOR STRIKERS
P. R. R., However, Tells
Senator Men Must Return
as New Workers
ROADS POLICY
is UNCHANGED

Senator Pepper OF Pennsylvania,
met yesterday with officials OF the
Pennsylvania Railroad System and
representatives OF the employees to
discuss the possibility Of effecting a
settlement whereby the shopmen
who went on strike might be return
ed. The meeting took place in the
Office OF W. W. Atterbury. vice presi-
dent in charge OF operation.
Following the conference Mr.. At
terbury issued a statement saying
that regardless OF the meeting tire
position OF the railroad toward its
employees will not change and that
strikes could return only as new men.
General Atterbury issued this
statement:
TT IS my desire that all our en-
ployes should know first hand about
a meeting that was held today in
my office.
1T was attended by Senator Pep
per, the general committee repre-
senting the employees at the Altoona
works. the general chairman repre-
senting the shop employees on each
OF the four regions, the general
chairmen representing the main
tenance-of-way employees and several
officers Of System Federation No. 30.
OF the A. f. OF L.. who formerly act
ed for the shop employees on this
railroad during Federal control.
Two months ago several other
meetings with the Federation officers
were held at the request OF B. N.
Jewell. Their purpose then was 10

the shopmen who went on strike
might be returned. II was stated
at that time, however, that our
pledges TO our employees would be
kept and that the strikers could re-
turn only as new men and as va
cancies occurred. which they might
be qualified TO fin.
Since then the Federation officers
had given Senator Pepper a state
ment ot their side OF the contro-
versy arising out of the shop crafts
election last year and Senator Pep
per came TO me for further en-
lightenment on the subject.
Il told Snator Pepper that would
arrange a meeting with the employe
representatives so that he could get
whatever information he wanted
from the men themselves. When
the meeting opened I explained that
purpose to those present.
Senator Pepper who had brought
the Federation officers with him,
then outlined his view of the situa-
ton as Il had been given TO him by
them. II was a question in his
mind. he said. whether the Pennsyl-
vania plan OF employe representa-
ton really represented the will and
desire Of the employees or whether
Il had been imposed upon the en-
ployes.
The officers Of the company who
had been present up to this time
then withdrew from the meeting and
left the Senator with the empioye
and the federation Of
fcers. After a three-hour discus
sion. It was decided 10 adjourn until
a later date TO be set at Senator
Peppers convenience.
Meanwhile. want all our en-
ployes TO know that these meetings
do not change and cannot change
our position in any particular what
sosver. They are merely TO let Sen
ator Pepper find out for himself the
facts about the situation In which
his intervention has been sought.
Il have told our employees repeat
sdly that our agreements with them
stand. I say It again now. We
intend to continue 70 deal with the
slected employe representatives. Re
OF the outcome of these
no change will be made
n the method of dealing with our
employees. unless the employees them
selves desire a change.

the statute books of Pennsylvania
may be removed. That is if we get
a few more women members of the
legislature. Miss Alice Bentley, a
school teacher of Meadville, Pa, just
elected to the Pennsylvania assembly,
says that she believes in sensible leg
islation and will work for the elm
ination of the Blue Laws. Penn
sylvania and Brooklyn, N. Y, always
have had plenty of theology and
churches. But no one has ever no
ticed these sections of the United
States being held before the remain
der of the country as the models for
right living. Sometimes it happens
that we get TOO much theology and
too little religion. If the Blue Laws
are removed I am quite sure that no
immoral wave will result.

Many of us feel friendly interest
in any one who bears the name of
satisfaction to even those Jews who
do not know personally the state sem
ator of New York, Nathan Straus,
Jr., to learn that he ran ahead of his
ticket in his district; in fact he even
outdistanced by many thousands of
votes the Governor-elect Smith. One
newspaper ascribes this remarkable
demonstration to Senator Straus'
humanitarian legislation. He is fol-
lowing in the footsteps of his father
and he gives every promise of becom-
ing one of the leading figures in the
political life of the nation.

So long Mary. Her goodbye word
to the American nation was that it's
two only really worthwhile, great
Americans are Henry Ford and Will
liam Randolph Hearst. Which Mary?
Oh, pardon me; it was Mary Garden.
Americas and Chicago's only, onliest
Mary, the most romantic and attrac-
tive figure of the generation. I am
surprised that she omitted Harold
Mccormick as another of the only
really 100 per cent Americans because
after all, Harold was good friend
of hers. At last Henry has won
place, if not in the Hall Of Fame at
least in the heart of the Immortal
Mary. Keep it up, Henry, you may
reach the White House yet with such
a press agent.
To those interested in the cause of
Jewish education the announcement
of the opening of Hebrew Junior
high school in Philadelphia this week
will be of value. It is also Of in
terest to learn that in Philadelphia
the Associated Talmud Torahs are a
constituent of the Federation of Jew
ish Charities which is not the case in
some other cities. The point that has
been made in connection with the
opening of this high school is that
large number-perhaps the largest
number of Jewish children quit their
Jewish education at the age of 13.
The purpose of the Junior high school
is to bridge the age Of 16 when they
are eligible to enter Gratz College in
Philadelphia. Of course the sessions
of this Hebrew school will not in any
way interfere with the studies of the
pupils in the public schools or high
schools.
I wonder why more Christians do
not give this side Of the commercial
picture of the Jew more consideration.
