BUSINESS MEN MEET
WITH SUPT. BACWELL
Americas Representatives and
Seaboard Officials Unable
to Get Together on Plan

A meeting Of business men held
Saturday afternoon in the offices of
the Americas and Sumter County
, Chamber of Commerce was address
ed by E. G. Bagwell, superintendent
of the Alabama division of the Sea-
board Air Line. The subject dis
cussed was the proposal of the Sea-
board to discontinue operation of
the Shoe Fly train between Helena
and Columbus, and after consider
able discussion it was decided that
the two interests could not be
brought into agreement.
Present at the meeting besides
Supt. Bagwell and W. W. Dykes,
representing the Seaboard, there
were ]. E. Mathis, Edgar Ship, W.
7. Lane, Frank Sheffield, G. c..
Webb John w. SILVER, w. NJ. Jones,
E. L. Carswell and Henry P. Ever
EFT. These gentlemen ali joined in
the formal discussion that ensued
and Plan No. /, as proposed by the
Seaboard was rejected upon the
ground that it denies proper service
to patrons of the Seaboard living
west of Americas.
Seaboard officials present pre-.
sented statistics showing that there
moves an average of only two pas
sengers daily between Americas and
Savannah over both Seaboard ard
Central lines, and that between Sa-
vannah and Montgomery over the
Central of Georgia, the Seaboard
and the Atlantic Coast Line only an
average of five passengers daily
are hauled These statistics, they
assert, fail to justify the operation
of through trains ON this line, and
being unable to agree upon the sub,
stitution of Plan No. /, Seaboard
officials were given to understand
that Americas representatives would
oppose the removal of the present
Shoe Fly trade train.
NAnother meeting of patrons OF
lie Seaboard is scheduled to be held
Wednesday at Cordele. At this
meeting the proposed Plan No. will
be again submitted by Seaboard rep
resentatlves as a compromise in con-
nection with the removal of the
Shoe Fly train. 1t has not been
determined whether or not Ameri-
Gus will be represented at this meet
ing, but today this was thought inn |
probable. Plan No. /, which as al |
ready been published in the Times
Recorder gives what is considered |
here as extremely poor service to
Seaboard patrons west of Americas,
and in the interest of these people,
Americas is opposing the plan
strenuously.
A proposal advanced by Amell-
Gus representatives to institute trade !
trains between Americas and Mont
gomery and between Americas andl
some point east of here was reject
ed by the railroad officials. The
objection to this plan is the IS
sumption by railroad officials that
such trains would not be patronizcd
sufficiently to justify their opera!
ton. The operation of through
night train between Savannah and
Montgomery was rejected upon the
ground that trains formerly operst-
ed upon practically the same scha-
dule as proposed had failed to de-
velop revenue sufficient to pay ex-
penses.

concerned in the controversy on the
other; the second, that it is better
in every way that boards of adjust
ment or boards of investigation and
review, instead of being fixed in their
personnel, should be filled by appoint
ment made from time to time as con-
troversies arise. Nothing is more diff
ficult than for a permanent board to
retain the confidence of employer and
employee. Each decision it is called
upon to make exposes it to the charge
of having unduly favored one side or
the other, and is pointed to as pre-
ceeedent when subsequent decisions
are to be made Human nature is
quick to charge other men with pre-
conceived opinion-and labor disputes
deal not with fixed rules of law, they
deal with human nature.
whether or not legal authority ex-
lists to compel the submission of labor
disputes to such board, or whether
or not the decisions of any such
board may be enforced, is of minor
consequence if the board itself en-
joys the confidence of the parties to
the dispute, and if it realizes that it's
chief function is to encourage a spirit
of cooperation and friendship be-
tween employer and employe.
st is in the light of those princi-
pies and of accumulated experience
that we should re-write those provis-

need protection against the encroach-

whom the burden of such things is
most apt to fall. They have the right
to call upon the courts to say to
every governmental autocrat, great or
small, Thus far shalt thou go and

Il know judges are human and that
they make mistakes. Men do not
cease to be men simply because you
put them in a black silk gown and
set them in judicial chair; but OH
the other hand, they do not become
prophets or seers or sages simply by
being elected senators or members of
congress or delegates to a state leg
islature.
There is one complaint, however,
which labor has had cause to make
against judicial process which is we'll
founded. In my judgment, there have
been many cases in the past where
the writ of injunction has been arous-
ed in connection with labor disputes
Injunctions have been issued which
ytheir terms went beyond any prop
er limit and sought to deprive men
of lawful exercise of indisputable
rights They have been framed with
partisan zeal and their effect has
been to cast upon the courts the per-
Torrance of duties which properly be-
long to those executive officers of the
state or nation who are primarily
charged with the preservation of pub
lie peace and public order.
cit is not we'll for society, it not well
for the courts, it is not we'll for the
