Safety and Efficiency
of Railroads Menaced

A bill to limit the length of
trains is now pending in the
senate. Advocates Of the bill
claim that it is essential to adj
vancing the stately and effici-
ency Of rail operation.
The truh Of the matter, accord
ing to J. Carter Fort, General
Solicitor, Association Of Ameri-
can Railroads, is that enactment
Of the bill, far from promoting
efficiency and safety would
greatly increase the chance of
train accidents, interfere with
standards of service, and directly
raise by $150,0OO,OO annually
the operating expenses of the
railroads at a time when they are
least able to foot the bill
The bill, Mr.. Fort points out,
would arbitrarily limit freight
trains to 81 or So cars. This
would make it largely impossible
for the lines to take advantage of
modern operating methods, which
are the basis of adequate and
economical service to the public,
and which have become possible
as a result of scientific develop
ments and expenditure of vast
amounts of money for the i'm
provement of roadway and
equipment.
In addition, during the last 10
years, in which lengths of trains
have been steadily increased, the
railroads have made an astonish-
ing record in preventing acct
dents. No industry has done
more to forward the safety Of
both workers and passengers
and it is a fact, 50 far as the lat
ter are concerned, that you are
safer on a train than in your
home. If trains were shortened
in length, it is believed that the
accident hazard, especially in re-
gard to grade crossing mishaps,
would be greatly increased.
The proposed bill, no matter
how sincere its hackers, is an ex-

Beach Bar

Rye, N, Y, Aug. 28-When a dep
uty county attorney sought to delay
court action against two ticket sellers
at Playland who had refused lockers
to Negroes, his action was met by
N. A. A. G. P. attorneys who served
notice in open court that the New
Rochelle Branch intended to send
delegations each day to the park and
make new cases. This threat was put
into effect Immediately upon adjourn
ment of court when a delegation ac-
companied by Charles H. Houston,
Special Counsel of the N. A. A. G. P.
proceeded to P~layland, famed West
chester amusement park and bathing
beach. The Playland authorities, rea-
lizing that the N. "A. "A. @. P. meant
business, admitted all of the Negroes
without question to the lockers and
beach.
The N. A. A. @. p, nevertheless,
will continue its prosecution Of those
who previously had denied admission
to colored patrons. It also will press
its challenge of the right of a deputy
county attorney to defend violators
of the New York Civil Rights Act.

Rival Baptists
To Unite For Travel
AT Least

Chicago, Aug. %, amp
While no question of amalama-
ton is involved, a lessening of
tension between the National
Baptist Convention, U. S A. Inc,
and the National Baptist Conven-
ton of America, Unincorporated
may be inferred from the fact
that the delegation of the two
organizations will travel east on
the same train to their respective
conventions this year. The incorp-
Grated Baptists, headed by Rev.
l.. X. Williams will meet in New
York. The unincorporated group
led by Rev. G. l.. Prince of Texas,
holds forth in Washington, ID. Q.
The incorporated body was
successful in getting a special
convention rate and t h e unin-
corporated members are taking
advantage of it. The delegates
of both conventions from this
section will gather at Chicago
and make up a special train. In
California, under t h e leadership
Of Rev. r. P. Porter, pastor Of
Progressive Baptist Church OF
Los Angeles and Rev. w. II.
Rozier, also Of the Angel City, the
delegates will leave in a combina-
ton group.

Insuring Industrial
Peace

The Union Pacific Railroad has
provided an inspiring example OF
progressive, far-sighted and liber-
al labor policies.
The road wishes to unite its
subsidiary accounting offices at
its Omaha headquarters in order
to effect operating economies.
Doing that makes it necessary Tor
a large number Of workers TO
move from offices in Portland,
Pocatello, Los Angeles, Salt Lake
City and st. Joseph. A part OF
the economies to be gained is to
be used to cushion the shock of
the change in home and in en-
ployment to workers.
On its own initiative, the COM
pany proposes to do the follow
ing things:
1t will make no reductions in
regular positions, for at least a
year.
To employees who cannot or will
not make the nov to Omaha, the
road will give a dismissal wage
equal to one full years pay, and
will pay the wage either in a
lump sum or in "a equal install.
ments.
The company guarantees that
for one full year from the date Of
the merger, no employe in Omaha
will be adversely affected by the
change.
Employees who have bought OF

leave, are guaranteed protection
from loss, as the railroad viii
either purchase the homes at
fair value, or will make good any
loss resulting from a forced sale
at less than reasonable value.

liz Your Job Was at
Stake

The private automobile driver
has much to learn, sc far as
safety is concerned, from the op-
orator of commercial vehicles
From 1927 to 1884, the number
Of passenger cars registered in
creased 7h per cent while the
number Of such cars involved in
fatal accidents rose IS per cent.
By contrast, during the same
period the number of trucks LII
use increased IL per cent-while
the number involved in fatal ac-
cidents rose only 5 per cent SINH
lar favorable records were made
by buses and taxicabs.
The private driver is his own
boss. He can take chances, get
in accidents, and be as reckless
and incompetent as he pleases
without losing his "'job"-unless
the authorities step in. The COM
mercial operator has to drive
safely-or look for another call
ing. The reckless and incapable
driver lasts as long with a com
mercial vehicle concern as does
a SNOWFALL in Hades-and the ac-
cident figures reflect that situa-
ton accurately.
If every driver adopted the at
titude hat his job and his liveli-
hood depended upon his being
safe and competent the accident
toll would go into a tail spin at
once. As a matter Of fact, he has
something eve more vital at
stake whenever he takes the
wheel-his life, and the lives Of
others. Thirty-five thousand peo-
pie died unnecessarily last yea1
because Of recklessly or incompe-
tently driven automobiles. Will
that happen again?

The Hole in Your
: Pocket

Press dispatches from Wash
mgton state that in the last II
months ST, 100000 has been
spent, which, with the 81, 1O0,-
100000 that was spent t h e pre-
ceding year, makes a total peace
time record spending Of $14,475,-
0O0, 1000 for the past two years.
Money has been spent twice as
fast as it has been collected from
the taxpayers But all the spend
ings and all the borrowed money
must eventually be extracted
from the taxpayers pockets.
AT the end of the new fiscal
year, it is estimated the national
debt will be approximately $685.
600, 100000 or a per capita debt
of $270 on every man, woman and
child III the country.
These figures are so staggering
In size that one cannot grasp
them. But the Individual tax
bills of various kinds that will
soon be coming due, a be read
lily understood by every taxpayer
whose pockets will be emptied in
order to pay them.
Colonel Robinson, Of the Yak
ina, Washington, Republic, in an
swering a "reactionary' citizen
who assered that taxpayers
should have a voice in how their
money is spent and that it should
be spent as economically as pos
sible, said:
"The idea that tax money
should be spent economically is
just as far out Of date as the 9TH
er. If tax money were spent
economically, there wouldn't be
more than half Of it spent, and
that fact alone is sufficient to
condemn the idea. The prevail
ing thought is to spend public
funds uneconomically, so that
more funds can be raised and
spent, thus putting more money
into circulation and increasing
power of the people,"
Sarcastic as is this paragraph
Of the Colonel's, it states a dis
tressingly plain truth. It's lucid

of the territorial integrity Of any
of the covenanters- Japan and
Italy r not only guilty Of bad
faith but of poor craftsmanship
The indignation aroused on the
part of the other signatory pow
ers against the aggressive intend
of Japan and Italy is not so much
due to their moral superiority
over their condemned fellow ma
tion-for they all have been tar
red with the same brush-as to
the fact that such aggression is
calculated to upset international
poise and peace OF mind. LII Italy
should be allowed to control the
head waters Of the Nile, Eng
lands ~suzerainty over Egypt and
her sway in the Orient might be
greatly jeopardized. France like
wise is not wholly devoid of in
ternational jealousy for she her
self possesses African colonies. In
the meantime Germany is stand
ing off with jealous aloofness, not
caring to see any one of her rivals
gain too much Roadway. Our own
strenuous objection to Japan's ag-
gression in China is dictated, not
50 much from pure moral consid-
GRAFTON as by the fact Of the COW
etOus eye which we have on China
trade which will not tolerate ia
pan closing the open door.
The conduct Of Japan may be
explained on the ground that she
is actuated by the ethics Of one
heather nation dealing with an
other. But MuSsolini and the Lion
of Judea are both professed fol-
lowers of the Prince of Peace.
That Ethiopia does not belong to
the white race cuts comparatively
a little figure. Italy is known to
have a nor sympathetic and
generous attiture towards the
darker breeds Of men than any Of
the NOrdic nations. 1t is primari-
ly a question Of greed and imperi-
al aggression. 1t is assuring how
ever, that the nations of the earth,
which are not Immediately involv-
ed in the benefits to be derived
from this aggression, are stoutly
opposed to the policy of Japan
and Italy. Should moral suasion
some other more effective in
ternational sanction fail to check
the intended assault Of Mussolini,

THE PLEA OF
ABYSINIA

After the lapse Of nineteer
hundred years of the Christian
dispensation we are confronted
with the anomalous spectacle Oh
one Christian nation threatening
the despollation of another. The
Lion of Juda, Emperor of Ably.
sinia, claims unbroken descent
from King Solomon and the
Queen Of Sheba. His people have
professed Christianity since apos
tolic times. Ethiopia Is now
stretching forth her hands to bt
saved from the greed and rapac-
ity Of the Italian nation whose
national spirit is typified by the
Catholic Church in whose keep
ing was vouchedsafed the keys OF
Heaven. Mussolini, who essays
the role of Julius Caeser, is now
striding the world like a huge
Colossus. His avowed purpose is
to restore the grandeur that was
Romes and the prestige Of the
ancient empire. Abysinia is his
easiest first step in his mad ca
reer. No greater stigma could be
fall the ancient Roman army than
that it should be made to 60 UNI
der the yoke of an inferior tribe.
The Italian army has been made
to dip colors to the Ethiopian
flag in a previous conflict. Mus
solini is smarting under the stig-
ma Of this disgrace as well as be-
ing spurred on by the ambition
and avarice of conquest. The
lion always accuses the lamb of
muddying the water below him
in justification Of his intended
assault. Of course Abysinia is re
sponsible for the impending con
flict. The moral blame must al
ways be placed on the weaker
man.
Mussolni is an anachrOnism. He
represents the survival Of the age
Of conquest at a time when such
agrandisment is put under ban by
t. the most advanced nations of the
world. All the great nations
have passed through this stage
which they have not yet wholly
outgrown. England has built up
her worldwide dominion over
palm and pine by going up and
down throughout the earth seek
ing what feebler folk she might
devour. Her imperial purpose
was the only justification deemed
necessary. She picked a quarrel
W t h feebler nations whose pos
sessions she coveted and then de-
stroyed them for daring to resist
the might Of the British army
Our own country has not escaped
like unothical procedure. The
national conscience would like to
forget the method by which we
acquired Texas and our far
Western possessions from Mexico.
The way we secured Hawaii, the
PHILIPPINE Islands and the Pana-
ma Canal certainly does not con-
tribute to our national easement

which will convene here Septem-
Der 80, the place of meeting has
been changed from the Rockland
Palace in Harlem to the Coliseum
at 177th street and Boston ave-
nue., according to an announce
ment made by DR.. Il. s. Harten,
Brooklyn, chairman Of the local
committee on arrangements
eve have been forced to make
this change" said DR.. Harten,
because Of the large number of
Baptists scattered throughout
the country who have assured the
local committee that they would
be here. The Coliseum is one of
the largest auditoriums in the
city of New York, seating $4,000
people besides the tremendous
number Of committee rooms, that
are essential to US"
Gcvernor Lehman to Speak.
The program this year will,
according to announcements, be
one Of the most comprehensive in
the history Of the organization.
Speakers of prominence in re
ligious, civic and educational af-
fairs have accepted the invitation
of DR.. L. K. Williams, president
of the National Baptist Conven-
ton, to attend and to address the
assemblage.
Numbered among the speakesr
will be Governor Herbert I.
Lehman, Of the State Of New
York, and DR.. George w Truitt,
president Of the World Baptist
Alliance, DIR. Frederick Douglas
Patterson president Of Tuskegee
Institute was invited to be the
principal speaker on "Booker T.
Washington Night" which will
be observed Friday, September 6,
but was forced to decline the in
vitation but to the stress Of press
ing duties in connection with the
launching of the new administra-
ton at the famous institution.
Added to these guest speakers
will be a host Of prominent mem
bers Of the organization coming
from as far west as California, as
far south as Florida and from the
New England States. Present In
dications, according to t b e local
committee and messages from
DIR. Williams office at Chicago,
the forthcoming meeting bids
fair to be ephochial in every
way, and New York City is
awaiting the opening session with
anxiety. Local organizations and
churches Of every denomination
have Joined hands with the Bap-
fists Of Greater New York to
show the visiting ministers, lay
men and their families, just how
New Workers do things. Every
phase Of the program has been
planned with d~eliberation and
precision and a beneficial and
harmonious meeting in every re-
spect is expected.
