such as the Canadian National Sys-
tenn, in Canada, the Chesapeake and
Ohio, the Seaboard Air Line, the Chi
cago and Northwestern and the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and ST Paul. are
working out cooperative programs
with their employees.
Benefits Far Reaching.
1t is hard to vision the far-reaching
benefits from this ''tryout" of indus
trial cooperation, which started in
the rundown Glenwood shop less
than year and a half ago. when ap-
piled to the railroads with their 2,000,-
600 workers and the public served by
both.
The convention of the Fedtrated
Shop Crafts of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad. held in Philadelphia,
May 8. of this year, as which time
the "co-operation in industry" plan
had been in operation for IA months
in the Glehwood shop and for
three months in the 44 other
shops on the Baltimore and Ohio sys-
tenn, adopted by unanimous vote a
resolution affirming the favorable &C
tion taken on the plan at the Cinci-
natti convention of the federation
held in 1928, and pledged continued
support.
IHlS experiment SLdTtGu Dy lIc hi
chinists in the worst shop, "the grave
yard of the Baltimore and Ohio re-
pair department" and which. within
IS months, has spread to some half
dozen railroads and some 100000 shop
craftsmen. seems to indicate pretty
strongly that "co-operation in indus
try" has passed the experimental
stage and is now a real factor in the
matter of production. Organized labor
seems to appreciate the fact that its
own securest future is in efficient and
economic production. which makes
the employers business successful SO
that they may have a fair share of
the profits. 1t is then a simple matter
of employer and employe getting to-
gether and pulling together as part
ners. rather than regarding each
other as economic enemies with moth
ing in common.

SLAVERS ARE ACTIVE.
From the Living Age.

Those who imagine that patrollinG

extinct function of modern navies Will
be interested to learn that the British
Government has just dispatched Il
division of fast destroyerS to CO.
operate with vessels of the French
and Italian navies in curbing the
slave trading dhows that ply be-
tween Africa and Arabia.
From Suez to the Straits of Babel
Mandeb," says a correspondent of the
London Morning Post, the Red Sea
is well over a thousand miles long,
while it's breadth is never more than
$50 miles. In parts the navigable
channel is whitfield down to 20 miles.
"On either side immense reefs
shield the coasts, often with good
navigable water inside-a blessing
to small craft on evil purpose bent.
With fair wind, slaves can be en-
barked at sunset on the African side
and in the morning be making the
Arabian coast"
The regent of Abyssinia, perhaps
Influenced in part by the desire to
appear well with his hosts on his
recent visit to Western Europe,
issued, before he left home, an edict
forbidding the sale or purchase of
slaves in his country.
He did not, however, emancipate
existing slaves because, as the pro-
clamation alleges, if liberated at once
they might become thieves and ban
dts, and disturb the public order"
But judges are appointed to see
that slaves are properly fed and
clothed, with authority to emancipate
them if they are inhumanely treated.
Children of slaves will have the right
to liberty, after they are Is years
old.

MIZPAH'S MEANING.
From the Kansas City Star.


This is a Hebrew word meaning
place of prospect" However, popu-
lar usage interprets it to mean THE
Lord watch between u.s." The word
is often engraved inside wedding
rings. The Bible relates that Jacob
and Laban set up a memorial stone
heap at Mizpah, saying The Lord
watch between me and thee, when we
are absent one from another" This
inspired Julia A. Baker to write the
following verse:
Thou goest thy way, and l 60 mine,
Apart, yet not afar:
Only a thin veil hangs between
The pathways where we are
God keep watch tween thee and me;''
This is my prayer:
He looketh thy way, He looketh mine,
And keeps us near.
Although our paths be separate,
And thy way is not mine.
Yet coming to the mercy
My soul will meet with thine.
God keep watch tween thee and me-
I'll whisper there;
BE blesseth thee. He blesseth mo"

railroads where narrow economy,
piece-work and anti-union policies
prevail"
1t has been definitely accepted by
both railroad management end shop
men that:
The welfare of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad and it's employees Is de-
pendent on the service which the rail-
road renders the public. Improve
ments in this service and economy in
operating and maintenance expenses
result chiefly from willing co-opera-
tion between the railroad manage
ment and the voluntary organizations
of it's employees. When the groups re-
sponSible for better service and
greater efficiency share fairly in the
benefits which follow their joint eff
forts, improvements in the conduct
of the railroad are greatly encour-
aged. The parties to this agreement
recognize the foregoing principles
and agree to be governed by them in
their relations" This is the preamble
to the agreement negotiated last May
between the Baltimore and Ohio
management and the Baltimore and
Ohio System Federation, No. 30
Fffty-Fifty on Savings.
SO there is a contract to split fifty
fifty fund created from the savings
resulting from increased efficiency of
the employees. This is done to en-
courage the men to give the best that
is in them, and to compensate the
company for added expenditures in
the way. of new tools and betterments
to make the shops better places in
which to work
Cooperative committees consist of
one man from each shop craft, who
meet a like number of supervisors
once or twice a week to consider CON
structive suggestions for shop better
ments. There is also grievance COM
mittee casually composed of the same
men), but grievances are not con-
sidered at the conferences for shop
bctterments. The whole attention of
the cooperative conference is focused
on better shop production and better
mentS to insure improved service.
Major questions, such as stabilized
employment, are not atttmpted to be
settled at first. These conferences
start at the simple matters that will
improve service and work up to the
hard problems later, as confidence in
each other grows between the repre-
sentatives of the men and the repre-
sentativeS of the management
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad ex-
tended this cooperative program, in
stituted at Glenwood to the "A other

MANHATTAN DAYS AND NIGHTS

From the windows of it's high-ceil-

currents. Then the street became Bo-

Cafe Boulevard one might hear a
score of languages spoken any night.
Men of an odd, whiskerish aspect sat
in front of many little restaurants
and chartered, sheltered from the
pavement marchers by hedges of
stunted bushes. Now it is bourgeois,
contented, prosperous. One reads OF

an article asking "Who Wanted to
Adopt n Three Year Old Boy?" This
appeal has been answered by numer-
Gus Rawlins people and many letters
from neighboring towns have been
written to Mrs. w. +. Welch asking
permission to adopt the small lad.
II was n case of first there, first
served and as the cas- happened to

were the first to answer the appeal.
Legal steps have been taken to adopt
the boy. thus he will have n good
home. good educational advantages
and adopted parents who will give
him the best of care.
1t Is indeed gratifying to know
that there are such noteworthy and
valued citizens in Rawlins and the
surrounding towns.

Speaker at Luncheon

At Tuesdays Rotary luncheon J.
IL. Cosgriff OF Salt Lake City, pres
ident of the First National Bank OF
this city, gave a very interesting ad-
dress.
Mr.. Cosgriff spoke especially OF
the sheep industry and told of early
day experiences in that business. He
told OF the start OF the Merino sheep
In this country when some Vermont
farmers imported several head from
Spain at an enormous figure. From
these sheep came the hardy sheep
which have formed the backbone OF
the industry in Wyoming.
The talk by Mr.. Cosgriff was
thoroughly enjoyed and the members
all expressed the wish that at some
future date they might have tho
pleasure Of listening TO another ad-
dress by him.
Mr., Daley, representing the Rocky
Mountain Motorists. Inc. explained
TO the members OF the Rotary Club
the purpose OF that organization and
showed that the organization was
working for the good OF the entire
Rocky Mountain states and not for
Colorado alone.
