In contrast, this small group of railroad
union leaders are attempting to fout the
intent and spirit of the Railway Labor Act,
and dictate their own terms
They have dictated paralyzing railroad
strike.
You will be the victim!
How long will the American public stand
Tor the undemocratic, arbitrary, and abusive
use of the right to strike and the disregard
OF the obligation TO provide transportation?
How long can the American people permit
few dictatOrial union leaders to defy the
processes provided for peaceful settlement
of disputes?
Force seldom produces settlements that are
often reached when personal interests must
be held subordinate to the greater public
welfare. That is why the railroads have &C.
ceptcd the Emergency Board recommended
tions. That is also why the leaders of these
three unions should reconsider their decision
to call a paralyzing strike.

THE LEADERS of three railroad unions, rep
resenting less than one-tenth of all railroad
employees have called a railroad strike that
would paralyze the nation.
These leaders refuse to accept 15k cents
an hour wage increase retroactive to Novem-
Der !, 1947. This increase was recommended
by an impartial Emergency Board appointed
by President Truman.
This increase of 1512 cents already has been
accepted by the 10 other railroad unions But
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
Enginemen, and the Switchmens Union of
North America won't accept what more than
500 of all railroad employees have accepted.
They have called strike to get more!
Unions refuse rules discussion
Certain rules changes demanded by these
union leaders-which would increase wages
still further were recommended by the
Board. But the union leaders want more
they demand that the railroads put into effect
ALL the changes they asked for, including
those the Board felt should he denied.
On top of this, they insist that certain rules
drawn-in spite of the fact that the Board
recommended them! These union leaders
have refused to negotiate except upon these
arbitrary terms.
Greater wage increase not justified
Engineers and fremen are among the high
est paid of all employees in America, as figures
in the box show. This strike threat doesn't
justify giving greater increase than other
railroad workers received.
Emergency Boards are a means provided
by the Railway Labor Act in the public inter-
est to avoid strikes. The Presidents Board,

recommendations.
Who's to blame?
Although they deplored so large an extra cost
burden, the railroads accepted the report of
the Board because they felt it was in the pub
lie interest to uphold the spirit and intent of
the Railway Labor Act

Conservation Notes
BY A. p. CARROLL

It is the time of the year when
most farmers are cutting sprouts and
briars in the fields and pastures.
Some farmers usually pile and burn
them. ri
j. L. Braddock and J. D. Bruce, of
Acona, and w. J. Waits and w. A.
Thomas of Goodman state that they
place them in gullieS and spread
them over sheet eroded places. In
this way they have been highly. sue
cessful in controlling erosion. When
small rills or gullies are allowed to
erode without some protection, they
soon make large gullies.
The farmers who have stock ponds
should inspect them to see that they
are adequately protected. The big
rains We are having may wash out
the spillway or the dam may settle
to the extent that there is not suffic-
lent freeboard and cause the loss of
the pond. The bottom of the spillway
should be three feet lower than the
lowest place on top of the dam. If
this is maintained, there is every pos
sibility of the dam washing out.
Those dams that do not nave sod
established should be sodded with
bermuda grass as soon as possible.
Some farmers have used a shovel
pillow, making three to four burrows
on top of the dam and placed sod in
them at intervals of approximately
/ three feet, and the sod covered the
dam in one season. Also some have
been equally as successful by spot
sodding Bermuda about three feet
apart on the dam.
In all cases the grass has covered
the dam much faster and better
when an application of commercial
fertilizer has been applied.
If any farmer has spillways that
are not adequately sodded. he
should sod and seed them as soon
as possible. 1t has been found that
this practice has been more effec-
tive if done at this time of the year.
An application of commercial fertili-
ger, barnyard fertilizer, or both, is
recommended at the time of seed
ing or sodding.

Recently we were all startled by
newspaper headlines which said that
big airplane was down at sea off
the Florida coast with 66 persons
aboard. 1t looked for awhile as if
they were lost then it was announc-
ed that they were all safe. The pilot
was Dick Merrill which brings me
to the reason for mentioning this
now. A few years back, during the
war, / rode with Dick Merrill in a
plane over the same route. The wea-
ther got rough, the government or
dered the plane to land. Merrill was
fused at by the passengers, said he
didn't want to land either, but orders
were orders. He brought us all in
safely-and now l see he has done il
again. Our airlines need more pilots
like him.
