Long and Hard Fight
TO reach this point in the prog.
ress Of the country has been a long,
hard fight.
It was definitely started just 20
years ago when William Randolph
Hearst, then q member Of Congress.
introduced the bill proposing tie

national highway development ct
last under way.
m the preamble 20 that measure
these objects were set forth:
ITO promote the construction Of
: national system Of good roads,
facilitate the extension Of the postal
service and lessen the dependence
of the agricultural and industrial
interests Of the country upon the
railroads for transportation"
Government aid for counties and
States building roads was provided,
ana $50, 900 900 was appropriated
ont OF the National Treasury to
give effect TO the act.
Since that time, without Interrupt
ton and with all the force and
ability that could be mustered, the
Hearst newspapers have been urg-
ing great national highways--splen-
did, well paved, enduring roads that
would run from the Atlantic to the
Pacific and from the Northern to
the Southern boundary OF the
United States, serving the people OF
all sections.
There have been appropriations
from time to time and for the ex-
penditures the people have reaped
enormous returns.
But the bill which passed Con-
gresS last week, making more gener.
Gus provision than any Of its prede-
cessors, really clinches victory for
q real national highways program.
Needed by Nation
There IL now in sight at least one
tranScortinental highway.
The completion OF that will prove
to the people, in whatever section Of
the country they dwell, that con-
tinuous, all-enbracing, all-penetrat-
ing system of roads is one of Amer.
Ic&'s greatest needs and best values.
We need these roads to show
Americans America. Most Of US don't
know our own country-only q spot
or fringe OF 1t. In seeing it all we
all will be better informed and there.

We need these roads for their mill
tary value; they will be invaluable
In time OF defense for transport of
men. arms and food.
We need them for their trade
value; we need them for the recrea.
ton, enjoyment and education Of the
people.
We need them for neishborlineal

1t is true that the bill especially
will benefit the West, for 1t D IN

much Of the money will be spent
But will it not be of inestinable
value TO the entire country? I'm

T IKE all other arbitration and con.
- ciliation measures, the Watson
Parker bill, to function for the work
ers, must be administered by work
ers' government.
Its mediation provisions, under ex-
listing circumstances, serve only to
delay and hamper the exercise of the
organized power of the unions. Peace
in the industry is paramount. Once
having accepted this theory, the rail
way unions must reject strike action
or place themselves in opposition to
the law
In favoring the Watson-Parker bill
the rail union heads have stressed,
time and time again, their desire for
peace. They have evidently convinc-
ed Coolidge that they want peace so
badly that they will stand for any
thing. Consequently, Coolidge has ap-
pointed open enemies of the rail labor
unions who will pass on the wage de-
mands of the brotherhoods before the
ink on the Watson-Parker bill is dry
CELDOM has there been such an ex-
~ hibition of concentrated stupidity
as that found in the railway union
journals while the passage of the Wat
son-Parker bill was pending and since
its ratification.
Even Albert Coyle, editor Of the Lo-
comotive Engineers Journal, usually
little saner than the average run of
trade union editors, gets off this
choice bit of piffle in the June num-
ber:
The most significant fact about
the Railroad Labor Act is that the
majority Of railway executives have
decided to quit fighting the labor
unions and recognize them as vi
tai part Of industry. In other words,
the railroad unions have won their
century-old struggle for the right to
exist and protect their members
welfare as workers.
DAILWAY executives, or any other
~ group of employers, never cease
lighting unions as long as the unions
are fighting for the right ito exist and
protect their members welfare as
workers"
If unions cease to be unions and be-
come what the Watson-Parker bill in
tends that they shall-efficiency or
ganizations of the railroads interested
in boosting the profits of the industry

Ex-Governor Morrow eof Kentucky Is
the second Coolidge appointee. He is
former member Of the defunct rail
way labor board. He is labor-hater
of the fire-eating southern variety
While governor he sent state troops
against the steel strikers in Newport,
allowed military reign of terror to
be established there and in Coving-
ton. The Kentucky coal miners
know Morrow well. The militia was
always held in readiness for duty an
the coal camps during his term in Of
fee.
WALLACE w. HANGER, another
w member of the old rail labor
board, is the third appointee. Hanger
is one of those Washington hangers
on, frequently seen insclose consulta-
tion with Legislators when railroad
matters are under consideration and
whose connections with railway inter
ests are more than suspected.
The fourth appoihteea is Hymel
Davies, one of the concfhators of the
department of labor. "
The fifth appointment has not been
made as yet.
THE railway union heads seem to
i have adopted a weak and humble
'trying-to-get-along" attitude follow
ing the passage Of thee eWatson-Parker
bill. According to W.sM. Clark, vice
president of the Railway Conductors,
the rail union heads proposed no one
for the mediation boards contenting
themselves with telling Coolidge that
they insisted only that no former anti
labor members of the old railway Ia
Dor board be appointed
Apparently they trusted to the
fairness" of the president believing,
it seems, that they had by their sup
port Of the Watson-Parker bill shown
enough conservatism to be favored.
THE railway union heads, and espec-
4 tally the heads of the four brother
hoods, have acted thruout on the be-
lief that the railway managers and the
railway workers have special inter-
ests in common that can make unit
ed front possible with both forces
gaining from the agreement.
For the union heads this may be
true but certainly it does not hold true
for the majority of the brotherhood
membership or for the membership of
the shop craft and other railway un-
iOns
