inquiry or
Strike?
Faced by demandi from the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemen
that would impose on the country an additional burden in transportation costs of
$100,000,000 a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by
reference to an impartial Federal tribunal.
With thi.se employes, whose efficient service is acknowledged, the railroads
have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such
public body.
Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration
The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of
the controversy is as follows:
"Our confcrtncM havt demonstrated that wi cannot harmonise our differences ( opinion tad that eventually the
snattrrs in controversy mutt be patted upon by other and disinterested agencies. Therefore, we propoae that your
proposals and the proportion of the railways be disposed of by one or the other of the following methods:
j . 1. Preferably by tuhmittion to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of its .
I seruniolated information bearing on railway conditions and its control of the revenue of the railways, is in a posi
tion to consider and protect the rights and equities of all the interests affected, and to provide additional revenue
4 aecrary to meet the added cost of operation in case your proposals are found by the Commission to be just and
reasonable; or. in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing laws, act in the premises,
i that we jointly request Congress to tase such action as may be necessary to enable the Commission to consider and
promptly dispose of the questions involved; or
I. by arbitration in accordance with the provivns of the Federal law" (The Newlands Act).

Therefore, any investigation made by
tin itii'T.-iate Com. tree Commission
into th . object of wages would come

Commission has no power to settle

Under the Newlands Arbitration
Iaw, it is distinctively provided that
arbitration can bo not In operation
"when a strike is threatened. '
No man has a right to say that a
"strike is threatened" until the re
sult of the strike vote, now being tak
en, is ascertained. The will of the
employes must be known before a
strike can be threatened.
if the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would assume the responsi
bility of agreeing thai the demands
of the men should be met, it would
clearly be up to the Commission to
provide the means for meeting any
Increased cost of operation.
The railways of course, would like
j to put the interstate Commerce Com
mission under mis ODiigaiion to
grant increased freight rates.
If It is right and proper for the
freight train employes to go into an
arbitration as to whether they shall
be worked excessive hours and as to
what they shall sell their labor for,
then it would only be consistent for
the railway car and engine builders
and railway supply dealers to agree
to arbitrate with the railroads as to
teh price the railroads should pay for
these things.
The principal objection, however,
of the employes to arbitration, would
be on the ground of the inability to
secure impartial arbitrators who
were sufficiently acquainted with the
technicalities of a problem of this
kind.
In a previous arbitration between
the employes and the companies, the
man who was acting as neutral ar
bitrator was a corporation lawyer
representing large vested Interests,
owners of railroad securities and who
had appeared in numerous cases as
Attorney of Record for the Standard
Oil Company.

A Question For the Public to Decide
The railroads feel that they have no right to grant a wage preferment of
$100,000,000 a year to these employes, now highly paid and constituting only
one-fifth of all the employes, without a clear mandate from a public tribunal that
shall determine the merits of the case after a review of all the facts.
The single issue beore the country is uhtthet this controversy is to be settled by an
impartial Government inquiry or by industrial warfare

Common pardon sage brewed Into s
heavy tea with sulphur sdded, will turn
pray, streaked and faded hair beautifully
dark anil luxuriant. Just a few applica
tions will prove a revelation if your hair
is fading, rtrcaked or gray. Mixing the
JSage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way is
to pet a 50-cent lottle of Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use. This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition of other
ingredients.
While wispy, pray, faded hair ia not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
ful appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it so naturally, so evenly.
You juBt dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning all pray hairs have disappeared,
ad, after another application or two,'
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant.
This preparation ia a delightful toiiot
requisite and ia not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prwutiou of disease.
