harness this new energy to de-
velop new industries and new jobs.
Atomic energy for industrial and
utility uses means vastly more
than the substitution of atomic
energy for coal and oil. Atomic
energy produces an entirely new
heat which is actually new pow
er. Atomic energy may be as much
of an advance over steam power
as steam power was an advance
over hand power. Atomic energy
will result in entirely new indus
tries and vastly different machines
than now exist, all of which will
provide millions of new jobs if
We get it harnessed in time. In
short, to me the question is either
of Harvesting atomic energy be-
fore 1850 or perhaps facing ma

LABOR. LEADERS
MAY FIND PLAN
BY JAMES MARROW

w &AOAAA4N0 l. S4Ne AWE S3' N1J
The labor-management confer
ence may achieve some lasting
good.
It's three weeks old, still plod-
ding along, and some critics al
ready have scratched it off the
books as flop.
It's too soon to do that, although
the conference may wind up next
week.
1t may recommend creation OF
a fact-finding body to step in
when collective bargaining fails.
This, at least, would be a forward
step.
There seems no chance the con-
ference will recommend voluntary
arbitration.
Thus fact-finding would be a
bridge between collective bargain
ing and voluntary arbitration. The
two groups, labor and manage
ment, do not appear ready to
cross the bridge from bargaining
to arbitration.
Thus fact-finding would be a
bridge between collective bargain
ing and voluntary arbitration. The
two groups, labor and manage
ment, do not appear ready to
cross the bridge from bargaining
to Arbitration.
Collective bargaining has been
regarded, and still is, as the ideal
way of settling wage disputes.
It's fine when it works. It's q
mess when it fails.
That's when labor and manage.
ment test their strength, labor by
striking, management by a lock.
out Or waiting. Both sides lose
plenty of money.
Collective bargaining fails, the
only thing the government can dc
is send in agents of its U. S. Con
citation service to try to get both
sides around a table to start talk
ing again.
The Cancellation service cam
compel them to do that. The gov
eminent lacks power to force {
solution or give orders.
A fact-finding body, growing
out of this conference, wouldn'
be able to give orders either. Whe1
collective bargaining and concilia
ton failed, that fact-finding body
could dig into the case.
Then it would report, but make
no recommendations, on what i
found out about the case of labol
and the case of management.
The only benefit from such a re
port, is published, would be t.
throw the weight of public opinion
against the side which had leas
justice on it's side.
If the acknowledgement confer
ence recommended creation Of /;
voluntary Arbitration board, i
would be setting up an instrumen
far more powerful than mere
fact-finding this:
First collective bargaining. I
that failed, then Cancellation. 1
that failed, then perhaps 1act-tlnd
ing. e
If all failed, then some kind o
board, probably made up Of me-
representing labor, management
and the public would consider tn
case-if both sides agreed volunt
arily to submit their case to tina
board. This would be the arbitra
ton method.
Once they agreed to abide by tn
boards decision, both sides woul
be expected to do just that.
1t isn't clear yet-because rec
ommendation has not yet bee
| made-What form a fact-findin
body would take; whether a pei
| manent government board, o
state board, or a special board Sc

Spirit" Golden Text: John 4: "a.
God is a Spirit: and they that wor-
ship him must worship him in
spirit and in truth. A Bible cita-
ton from the lesson sermon is.
Proverbs 10: 81, %. There are
many devices in a mans heart;
nevertheless the counsel of the
Lord, that shall stand. The fear
of the Lord tendeth to life: and he
that hath it shall abide satisfied;
he shall not be visited with evil. A
correlative passage from the text
bill "Science and Heath with Key
to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy is: Up. 1874: 1926 and 222:
31-6) Spirit is the life, substance,
and continuity of all things. i.
We must destroy the false belief
that life and intelligence are in
matter, and plant ourselves upon
what is pure and perfect. Paul
said, walk in the Spirit, and we
shall not fulfil the lust of the
flesh" Sooner or later we shall
learn that the letters of mans
finite capacity are forged by the
illusion that he lives in body in
stead of in Soul, in matter instead
of in Spirit.

To Mr.. and Mrs. John H. Walton,
Clayton, Delaware, R. D.
Dribbles' thanks to both of you
for sending through Rhesa's
change of address. Since receiv-
ing your letter. your sons have
both written in. No doubt you
have read their letters.
Rhesa's latest address appeared
in our issue of January 18th, 1915
and Georges was published Janu-
airy 25th, 1915.
From the sound of Captain
Georges letter, he seems to be-
lieve that his younger brother,
Lieutenant Rhesa, has picked out
the best station in the Pacific for
present operations. This. sounds
fine, and L for one, am very glad
that he rated such good stroke
of luck. I believe that all his
friends will hearty agree with me.
I ony wish that all of Our Boys
and Girls in the Service could be
so fortunate. However, one must
take the good and the bad alike
when serving in the armed forces.
There is simply no answer as to
what tomorrow may bring in the
way of assignments. So here's
hoping that Rhesa can stay put for
awhile right where he is, and that
Captain George will surprise all
you folks rea son by receiving a
nice long furlough home. They
are both mighty nice boys, and
good soldiers.
