Over twenty years ago, the Congress Of the
United States passed the Railway Labor Act.
It was hailed by union leaders as a model
for the settlement Of labor disputes.

rHs LEADERS of the Brotherhood of
j Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen,
Order of Railway Conductors, and the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen on the
Missouri Pacific Railroad have refused to
avail themselves of the peaceful means
provided by this Act for settling their dis
putes. They insist that they be the sole
umpire of their own disputes over the
meaning Of contracts. =<. a..
There is no Need for Strikes
With all of the available methods for the
interpretation of contracts, there is no
need for strike or even a threat of a
strike, but the leaders of these railroad
unions have ignored the ordinary pro-
cedures established by law and insist upon
imposing their own interpretations Of their
contracts by means of strike.
The wheels have stopped rolling on the
Missouri Pacific. They may stop rolling
! on other railroads at any time. Recently
the Wabash Railroad was forced to dis
continue operation for several days under
! similar circumstances

Innocent BystGRders Suffer
Losses and Hnrdships

There are about 5,OO0 engineers, tiremen,
conductors and trainmen on the Missouri
Pacific. They are known as operating"
employees, and are the most highly paid of
all employees on the nations railroads, but
their strike action has resulted In the loss
of work to 22.50O other employees of the
Missouri Pacific. In addition, they have
imposed great inconvenience and hard
ship upon the public and the communities
served by that railroad.
The Railway Labor Act was designed
to protect the public against lust such in.
terruptions of commerce.
Hthese men will not comply with the provisions
Of the law for the settlement Of such disputes,

ton, ~What is the next step:"

What are These Strikes About:

These strikes and strike threats are not
about wage rates or hours. They result
from disputes over the meaning of exist
ing contracts. They cover claims for full
days pay for less than days work, or for
payments for services performed by others
who were fully paid for the work done.

Canned Goods Prices
Here Reported Lower
Than Fresh Products

Retail prices of some canned
fruits and vegetables in Washing
ton stores are lower than the cost
of the fresh products, Commerce
Department survey showed today.
The canned goods prices also
averaged between so and 80 per
cent of the prices on equivalent
quantities of frozen products, the
report stated.
In some instances canned
prices are well below the cost to
urban consumers of fresh prod
ucts, even when the latter are in
flush supply" the report added.
Called Representative Prices.
While the survey was made last
August and based principally on
representative chain store prices
here. the general picture applies
today to most cities throughout
the country, the department ex-
planned.
while the Washington area
may not be typical of the country
as a whole in terms Of absolute
prices" it said, "the relationship
between and among the processed
and fresh products found to exist
here is probably representative of
| that in populous centers through
out the country"
Retails dealers here have noted
for some time that some canned
goods maintained a general low
price trend.
Comparative Prices Listed.
The department listed these
comparative prices Of selected
fresh and processed products per
net edible pound:
Green peas, Is to Is cents
canned, 80 to So frozen. % to 80
fresh; lima beans, 80 to A canned,
As to 50 frozen, % to "a fresh: snap

z Members Of Family
Stricken With Polio
Within Two Weeks

For the second time in two
weeks. infantile paralysis has
struck down a child in a Silver
Spring family whose home is near
open drainage bitches which resi-
dents of the area claim are brsed-
ers of the disease.
The victim, a 7-month- boy
in the 200 block of Franklin ave-
nue., is the 35th case reported in
Montgomery County this year.
Two cases were fatal. The child
has been admitted to Children's
Hospital after being stricken about
two weeks ago.
The bitches run along Franklin
avenue between Flower avenue and
Old Bladensburg road.
AS result of complaints from
parents in the neighborhood,
county and State officials inspect
ed the bitches last week and
County Manager Irving G. Nc
Nayr promised that the bitches
would be drained and graded to
prevent water from collecting in
them.
DR.. V. L. Ellicott, county health
officer, declared today, however,
that poor drainage plays no part
in the transmission of polio"
Some factors in poliomyelitis
epidemiology are still unex-
planned" he asserted. but we dc
know that the mechanism OF
spread is that of direct contact
from person to person. This dis
ease is not spread through out
side environment, as in the case OF
typhoid fever.
The discouraging factors OF
poliomyelitis are that no effective
type of immunization has been
discovered and that there is no eff
fective way of stopping the chain
of transmission from person to
person"

The manual said the fatal con-

In addition to nerve gas, it said
the blister and choking gases of

Food Editor.

Do you ever wonder how some
Of our food habits originate? Take
iced tea, for instance, it's strictly
an American innovation but 1t
took an Englishman from India
to introduce it in this country. 1t
was really all an accident.
During the time of the st. Louis
fair in 1904, an Englishman, Rich
ard Blechynden by name, came
all the way from Calcutta to set
up q snowy exhibit to push the
sale OF Indian and Ceylon tea. He
even brought along tall, dark
skinned men dressed in turbans
and bright colored jackets to
serve the hot tea. If any of you
remember that summer in St.
Louis they say the weather was
simmering along in the high nine
ties. 1t was sitting. The last thing
any one wanted was to drink hot
tea, so poor Mr.. Blechynden's tea
went begging. Not far from his
exhibit was a stand where they
were doing a terrific business SELL
ing pink lemonade and ice-cold
soft drinks. The gentleman from
Calcutta was desperate. He had to
think of something to draw atten-
ton to his wares for he couldn't
and wouldn't admit defeat. He
reasoned if these strange Ameri-
cans liked other iced drinks may
be they would like iced tea. So
he tried it. When he offered this
cold reddish-brown beverage to
the fair-goers they tasted 1t, liked
1t and told their friends about 1t.
BY the time the fair closed iced
tea had made a name for itself in
that section of the country.
Today. iced tea is an undis-
puted champion among summer
beverages. According to statistics
released by the Tea Bureau, Inc,
two out of three Americans drink
iced tea. It's a refreshing drink,
cooling and thirst-quenching, and
Is the most inexpensive beverage
except water itself.

Ideal Summer Beverage

Tea, like any other beverage,
must be made correctly to be
enjoyed to the fullest. First of
all. select a good quality tea.
Make hot tea exactly as usual by
scalding a teapot and putting in
a teaspoonful of tea or one tea
bag for each person. Next, pour
fresh boiling water over the tea
and allow to stand for g. minutes.
Stir, then pour into glasses filled
with ice. Follow these directions
and you will always have a per-
fectly clear. amber -colored drink.
To make a larger quantity Of tea
in advance and to save on Ice use
the following method. To make
servings. put 8 teaspoonfuls of
tea or 8 tea bags into a teapot
and pour on one pint of fresh
boiling water. Allow to stand for
FIVE minutes, stir and pour into
serving pitcher. Dilute with two
pints of cold tap water and let
it stand at room temperature un-
til ready to serve. Fill glasses
with ice and pour tea from pitcher
over the ice. Add sugar and
lemon to taste and garnish with
mint leaves, if desired. BY the
way, one of the old line tea COM
panies is offering as a premium
two-pronged stainless steel knife
for digging out fruit seeds or
spearing olives and pickles from
slender bottles. It's a handy little
gadget that can be used as a !
knife as we'll. It has a sharp
saw tooth edge for slicing cold
meats or even steak for that mat
ter. Best of all 1t doesn't have
that Kitchen look" to 1t SO you
can use 1t on the snack tray with
perfect confidence.
PEKOE PUNCH.
3 ounces of strong tea.
5 ounces of rum.
"a ounce sugar.
u ounce lemon juice.
3 ounces dry ginger ale.
Serve we'll iced. !
