kilograms received by the Asso-

In Denver, police were stationed

GAINS SHOWN IN
MAY VOLUME Of
FREIGHT HAULED
Steel Production Maintains
Its Latest Gains; Some
Centers Report COMPETE
ton for Labor.

New York, July 2 (by the Asso-
ciated Press while the usual
uncertainties of the season and a
few others of a special character
have dominated the country's mar
kets during the last week, returns
from industrial centers continue
good. Steel production has main
tanned it's latest gains, railroad car
loadings have reached a new high
level for the year and reports from
a number of centers mention active
competition for labor between
makers of steel, automobiles and
railroad equipment on the one
hand, and the building trades on
the other.
Allowing for the coal strike,
which naturally affects the show
ing of railroads serving union
mines, the May earning statements
of the carriers testify to a further
gain in the volume of traffic.
Seasonal Uncertainties.
Regarding the seasonal uncer-
tainties, principally those relating
to the new crops, little in the way
of news has developed. Fair
weather in the cotton belt inn
proved conditions somewhat and
took the edge off the minor crop
scare Of two weeks ago. 1t also
resulted in the cancellation of the
corresponding advance in prices.
Interest in the trade has centered
in tomorrow's government crop
report, private estimates favoring
a condition in the neighborhood of
70 per cent.
Wheat prices stitfened slightly,
partly on reports of smaller sup
plies of the cash commodity
and partly on a disappointing
threshing returns. In the course
of a falterlng rally the July deliv-
cry reached the vicinity Of $115
but the market was thin and I'M
certain.
Money Market at Low Levels.
Despite flurries in call Money,
which carried the rate on the New
York stock exchange as high as
5 IL per cent, the money market
still holds at the low levels of the
year. The disturbance in call
money, a form of accommodation
which is extremely sensitive to
temporary influences is attributed
to special demands connected with
the end of the first half year. The
best observers expect pronounced
ease again in July.
The uncertainty regarding soft
coal prices is, meanwhile. produce
ing corresponding doubts in relat-
ed markets. Production of btu
minous at non-union mines has
continued to grow but still falls
short of normal demand by at least
two-thirds. Anthracite output re-
mains practically nil.

CHIEF INTEREST CENTERS IN
SPECTACULAR PENNANT CHASE
In AMERICAN LEAGUE CIRCUIT
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. !,

New York, Chicago and Detroit
are punched close behind. Ex-
perts concede the Browns and the
Yankees greater reserve power
for the drive down the stretch,
but either of the other two west
ern contepders, on present form,
has at least fighting chance.
Closing the past week with an
old time burst of slugging. Babe
Ruth and his team mates gave
further proof that they are recov-
ering from a protracted slump.
With a record Of IL won and IA
lost on disastrous trip around
the circuit, the Yankees braced
against Washington and Philadel-
phia and today scored their fourth
straight victory.
Chicago White Sox, with their
pitchers in rare form, proved the
sensation of the race, however,
running their winning streak to
eight games and displacing De-
troit in third place.
Good pitching, especially by
Walter Johnson, who hung up his
third straight shutout and the
ninety-seventh of his major
league career, was responsible for
an improved showing by Washing
ton, while Cleveland, after taking
two from the Browns, proved easy
for the leaders, who made it four
straight today.
First division teams all dis
played winning form in the Ma
tional league, the Giants retain

games today after double victor
les on the part of both st. Louis
and Brooklyn, while the New

Cincinnati kept fourth place
by a slim margin today over

of the Cardinals. The Pirates may
brace as a result of a managerial
shift. George Gibson resigning

TING HAS
BEGUN, RAILWAY
OFFICIALS SAY
Union Officials Declare 0p-
erationS in That Line Will
Be Orderly and Legal;
Trains Run on Time.

Railway officials state that pick

ing shop crafts, although 1t has
been understood that nothing Oh
the kind would be attempted be-
fore July 4. Lawyers, asked Tor
an opinion, say that there Is no
law against picketing if it is done
off the railway property. There is
a; strict law against trespass, now
ever, they declare, that makes IL
Illegal to go upon private properly
for picketing or any other purpose
without the consent of the owner.
Union officials announced on
the day the strike began that
there would be practically no pick
citing unless the railway should
import strikebreakers.
They say that what picketing is
carried on will be done in an en-
tirely orderly and lawful manner.
Their men are all Albuquerqueans
and have the interests Of the COM
munity as much at heart as any
other citizens, they state.
d. e. Barton, superintendent of
shops for the Santa Fe railway
here, stated yesterday that 175
men are at work, and that they are
all Albuquerqueans. In the shops
and yards it was reported last
night that plenty of men were on
hand to take care of engines and
equipment. On Saturday night, it
was stated, there was some disor-
der in handling engines and other
equipment. Some of the men, who
quit have asked for their jobs back,
according to Mr.. Barton.
~ So far as could be learned, no
strikebreakers are on the way or
have arrived here. There was a
report in circulation that the fore
men in the Albuquerque shops and
roundhouse, numbering about 40
men, had agreed to quit in case
an effort was made to work strike
breakers. A number of STRAW

ssWHAT ARE YOU
DOING WITH THE
NEGRO YOU OWN!''

Ex-Secretary of the Navy 10
sl>phus Daniels was one OF the
speakers at the recent unvelllng
of the monument to Booker /.
Washington at Tuskegee Ala, He
says that the thing that perhaps
impressed him most ABOUT MS
visit was the practical, horse
sense talk colored woman mace
to the negroes at a meeting neld
in connection with the unvelllng.
This is what she told them:
sTn, the old days the owners OF
slaves found slavery profitable TO
them. That is why they owned
slaves and why they opposed eman-
cipation. How did they make a
slave profitable to them? They
did three things:
Il They made the slaves get. up
and pet out early in the morning.
"2 They made them work AFTER
they got out in the morning.
"They made them come in at
night and &c to bed and get their
nights sleep.
Nov, every negro who hears
me- owns negro-yOu own your
self. You can make that owner
ship of a negro as profitable 20
yourself as the slaye-oWner made
the slave profitable to him. How
can you do it? !.
Il Make the negro you own get
up and out in the morning.
"2 Make the negro you own
work.
SO Make the negro you own
come in at night"
AS Mr.. Daniels said. "Thi3 is
just about as; good advice for
white folks as fer negroes" Every
white man ought to say to him
self: ~ own a white man and 1T is
up to me to train him and treat
him so he will be ten times more
profitable to me by inspiring him
to use both brain and muscle for
me, than the mere muscle-service

Why so little cooperation in
the interest of local advancement!
Find the solution to these two
problems, remove the cause, and
you will more than Justify your
presence as a citizen. 49,
Continued cooperation will
make any community. Excessive
political activity will throttle 1t.
We can find no fault with mann

drawn and frightened to include
The small home towyn it has a
tendency to destroy the hearty
cooperation that is essential to
local amity and prosperity.
NeighbCrs who think first OF
party ascendency in time become
SO engrossed in their political
strife they consider little else.
Thus the legitimate plans for local
improvements are advocated by
the party adherents who propose
them and are opposed by the men,

One group of active citizens IS
pulling against another regard
less of the merits Of the questions
at issue, while the inactive class

THE SPIRIT THAT WINS

Inc cultivation Oh ITdIeI ia
spirit has much to do with the
success of local community: :,
Where the population is limited
the indifference or selfishness OF
a single individual exerts de-
pressing effect upon others, and
this attitude of pessimism in time
permeates the whole community.
Men and women who really desire
to advance the interests of them
selves and their neighbors find it
difficult to work to advantage
when disaffected ones are con-
tinuallv throwing a. wet blanket
over every new project that is
proposed.
Investigation and discussion are
both commendabler and desirable,
but pessimistic remarks and pull
ing back in the community har-
ness are on "a par with a balky
horse. They render more or less
futile the efforts of those who
would push forward to ultimate
achievement.
A community of brothers work
ing together in harmony is far
better than one of opponents pull
ing in opposite directions.
