"I saw the "Smiles of 1922" at the Marigold Gardens in Chicago. where it ' ran for three months," said Mr. Davidson. "It was one of the best, if not the best, musical revues I've ever seen.

Boost of Wages (('ftnUnued From Pica On,) of the railroads and the company is particularly in need of these quali fied mechanics." The statement questions the sin cerity of the pay increase proposal, calling attention to a conference in December, 1921, when a Union Pa cific official is quoted as saying: "1 do not think anyone could justify an increase inmates of pay at this time. The tendency is downward without doubt." Officers Are Quoted. Further on the statement quotes a company representative as saying: "We take the position as provided in the transportation act, that it is encumbent on the railroad manage ment to operate the railroads ef ficiently and economically. . . . We take the position, that we are now paying rates of pay that are higher than the rates paid by outside industries for like work. We also take into consideration the fact that living costs are descending and will continue to decrease. For that reason wc cannot consider your proposition for an increase. On the other hand, we submit to you, gen tlemen, the proposition of reducing the rates of py." In summing the matter up, the union officials assert a majority of the strikers will not be "fooled" by the formation of the company or ganization or the proposed wage in crease; and that such an increase is an admission that the road cannot be run wjth the class of men now employed.

Howell, they say, are to be expected, but to attack Howell for getting the same endorsement received by Bryan, Howard and several other democrats was not expected of Hitchcock.
