Railway Industry Can't Succeed
 Unless It Recognizes Human Equation

Evidence multiplies that the margin between success or failure in the rail road industry depends on the human equation. The workers constitute o5 per cent. and materials per cent of the industry. The workers have invested their lives, while fnanciers have given only surplus dollars.
 These workers are willing and anxi- ous to cooperate with management i'll giving producers and shippers service, and to capital fair return on the mon ey actually invested in the industry. The main trouble is that management as a whole has failed to cooperate with labor, arbitrarily contending for complete mas tery over the workers
 Instances where management cooper ates with the employees have brought good results, redounding to the benefit of all the elements that make up the railroad industry. The shopmen's strike of July 1, 1922, was due to refusal of management to cooperate with the l. OO0,O00O employees who constitute this very important branch of the service.
 The six federated shop crafts-ma- chinists, blacksmits, boiler-makers, sheet meal workers, electrical workers, and carmen-are the shock troops of the railroad industry. They have fought, sacrificed and suffered to improve con ditions and advance wages, not alone for themselves, but for employees in all parts of the service.
 As a result of the shopmen's strike, which still prevails on a limited num- Der of 'hard-boi1ed" roads, railroad management has a more wholesome re- spect for these workers than ever be- fore. This strike stopped wage-cutting by the Railroad Labor Board and re- suited in many shop employees and other branches of the railroad service receiv- ing increased wage schedules.
 On the Baltimore & Ohio and some other railroads, where a genuine spirit of cooperation has been shown by the management, 1t is being demonstrated that the shopmen are producers of rev enue for the roads and not simply con- sumers of revenue. as short-sighted man agmenets have declared from time to time.

''Supreme Arbiter"
 for Shoe Industry

Haverhill, Feb. o-The Haverhill shoe industry tonight followed the example of organized baseball and the motion picture industry in placing its destinies i'll the hands of supreme arbiter" Edwin Newdick of Scituate statistician and industrial engineer, was named neu- tral arbiter of the shoe industry by un- animous vote of the citizens committee authorized to make the appointment.
 The position Is a new one, created under new working agreement signed by the Haverhill Shoe Manufacturers Association and the Shoe Workers Protective Union. It carries salary of $10,0O0 a year. The appointment is for two years, the term of the new working agreement.
 Decisions of the arbitrator will be final in matters relating to relations be- tween employers and employed.
 Edwin w. Nedwick was employed in Springfield as a newspaper reporter in 1908, living at 203 Hig hStreet, and later in Pleasant Street. In 1910 he became editor of the Western New England Magazine, a monthly publica- ton discontinued several years ago. He moved to New York i'll 1911 Later he was located i'll Boston,

FUEL ECONOMY TO AFFECT ALL INDUSTRY BY INCREASING
 POWER PLANT EFFICIENCY

 N. c. Reincker spoke on Fuel Econ ony Through Interconnection. The linking up or interconnection of power stations is a subject now engaging the attention of power men and is of special interest to organizing labor because of the probability that stations linked to- gether would be used to provide power in case of a strike at any particular point or points in the 1inked-up system.
 Mir. Reinicker said that interconnec- ton of power systems reduces to min imun the standby reserve and running reserve plant capacity, and that it also reduces to minimum the number of banked boilers necessary for safe opera tion. By proper operation material eco- monies can be realized from interconnec- tion. Momentary fluctuation causese wide change of loads in individual plants that are easily absorbed i'll an inter connected system. Sudden falling off of load on an individual station may cause the boiler to blow, whereas sud den increase of load on the station will cause the steam pressure to drop, re- sulting in a decrease in efficiency of the steam-power equipment in the station. These losses are largely avoided by in terCOnnectiOn

 Washington, D. C., Feb. 16.-Electri cal engineers, who have done so much to make electric power available for the great masses of the people, are now stri- wing to make production of electricity even more efficiently by economy i'll the

 What IS being done to promote fuel economy in public untility plants pro ducing electricity was discussed by the Engineers Club of Philadelphia at recent conference Inter connection of power systems, coordination between in dustrial and public utility plants, auto matic regulation of boilers, use of pow cred coal, education of industrial plant executives, more intelligent operation through education of boiler-room work CTS and use of waste heat from indus trial processes were suggested as means of saving fuel.
 Morris L. Cooke, chairman of the Pennsylvania Giant Power survey, said that unifcation of electric power on large scale in Pennsylvania was the purpose of the survey. Mr. Cooke said that as far as Pennsylvania is concerned water power was a negligible quantity on account of the vast fuel resources of the state compared with water power. He expressed the opinion that though the water power of the state should be developed, the one great thing to strive for is economy ill the use of fuel This survey, MT.
