COULD GET NO SYMPATHY.

The threat of certain employees of the railroads to strike is now being held over the railway labor board in an ef- fort to get that board to chance it's de- cision. It was impossible for the rail road employees to agree with the rail- roads regarding the matter of wage re- ductfons. The matter then went to the board instituted by the transportation act for the adjustment of such disputes, and that board made up of representa- tives of the. men, the roads and the pub lie by a two-thirds majority vote has ar rived at what. it believes to be just un- der present conditions.
 The reductions which are ordered are no- heaHv-- They still leave the trl : ployes getting more than. are those in similar employment in other industries and yet because there has not been dis closed the disposition to maintain war wage forever, when war, conditions do not exist, there is a move made threat ening to tie up transportation through out the country so far as those involved are able .- -~ .-.,.e
 It is an unjust, attitude. It can hard ly be expected that a government board instituted for dealing fairly win mat ters brought before 1t will be disposed to make flesh. of one and fish of an other. Having found that there wa. need for a readjustment, that justice might be done to the entire country they have proceeded to do their duty il way that is going to infifct no hard ship. Whether any strike develops O not, t is not believed that public sen timent will support the stand that is evel now being taken in threatening to den, transportation service to the public be cause special privileges are not bein
 handed out to them. Even as a threa
 it is i'll advised and badly timed.

THE r1Lrp1Nos. APPEAL

That the delegation representing the Filipinos would put forth their best ar gumerts in their appeal to President Harding for the granting of freedom to the islands was to be expected. Their protection was in mind when the Pa- ctac treaty vas negotiated at Wash ington. but 1t seems bit early for them to put forth the claim that any danger of foreign aggression against the Phil ippines has been eliminated through the actions of the Washington conference.
 That such is the outcome expected IS a fact, but 1t Is to be realized that the actions of the conference have not as yet been ratified by any other country than the United States, although it seems probable that such will be done and in most instances without reservations
 With the conference actions approved by all the participating nations there will be an added security thrown about the Philippines. but with the external situation improved to a pleasing degree
