WHOLE COUNTRY AFFECTED
Managers Say Working Basis as Pro
posed Simply Means Vast Wage
Increase Men Reply Cut
Out All Overtime.
YTnless the managers, trainmen and
enginemen of the railroad in the
United States are able to agree on a
new basis of employment before April
29. a strike involving 300,000 men and
280.000 miles of lino probably will
ensue.
Every railroad. In the country, and
some in Canada, will be tied up If the
strike is called. And unless the raan
agers accede to the men's demands or
negotiations for a settlement are not
entered into before that date, the strike
doubtless will be called. That is the
present expressed Intention of the men,
who submitted their proposals to the
managers on March 29.
The word "demands" in the forego
ing parargaph is used advisedly, for
that is the term employed by the men,
as well as by the managers, in discuss
ing the proposed employment basis.
The present difference between the
railways and the employes Is not based,
exactly, on the rate of wages, but that
question is indirectly Involved.
Simply stated, the men are asking
for an eight-hour day.
While that is all they are asking for,
the railroads declare their inability to
grant it without increasing the wages
paid to the men by $100.000.00T) a year.
While both sides are agreed that the
men's demands, technically, provide
merely for an eight-hour day, instead
of 10 hours as at present, they are de
cidedly at -variance in interpreting
what the effects of an eight-hour
schedule will be.
Pay Contention Advanced.
The managers declare that the eight
hour proposal is being used merely as
a means of increasing the pay of the
men from 25 per cent to 87 per cent,
and point out. in substantiation of this
theory, that the schedule provides for
time and a half for all overtime in ex
cess of eight hours.
The men insist that they are sincere
in their desire to limit the day's work
to eight hours, and declare they have
no intention, and even no hope, of add
ing to their earnings by working
longer.
"If the railways complain that 'time-and-a-half
means in some instances
an increase, let them avoid the increase
by avoiding the overtime, for that is
the purpose and the desire of the em
ployes," Bay the men.
Complicating the situation, so far a
the aspect of the general public is con
cerned, is the fact that railroad men's
wages are computed partly on a mile
age basis and partially on an hourly
baa la.
In other words, 100 miles and 10
hours now axe considered the 'basis of
a day's work Xor all road crews. If the
100-mile run is completed in less than
10 hours, the day's work is complete.
If the crew runs more than 100 miles
in 10 hours they are paid pro rata for
the additional miles they run. If It
take smore than 10 hours to complete
their 100-mile run they are pakl pro
rata for the additional time.
Right Hours Ia Maximum.
Now the new demands of the men do
not propose the mileage, basis, but
would make eight hours instead of 10
hours the maximum of the day's work.
Passenger crews generally complete
their runs in less than eight hours, so
the new schedule would not affect
them. Passenger service is not Includ
ed in the new demands.
What the managers refer to as a
serious difficulty is the effect that the
proposed schedule will have on ter
minals. Railroad terminals now are generally
located bo that the distance between
them can be made with a freight train
in approximately 10 hours, with as
little overtime as possible.
"Therefore." the managers say, in re
ply to the men, "the running time can
not be reduced without reducing the
tonnage of the trains. This would de
prive the roads of one of their most im
portant means of increasing the effi
ciency of operation, besides increas
ing the number of trains operated. This
would require more crews and delay
the movement of trains. It is therefore
evident that if the proposed increases
in wages were allowed the railroads
would be forced to choose between
paying out large sums for overtime
and changing the location of their ter
minals. This latter step would be seri
ously felt not only by the railroad em
ployes, but by the towns now built up
around railroad terminals. "Which al
ternative would be adopted would de
pend entirely on whether the annual
Interest on the cost of the new ter
minals would exceed the annual in
crease in wages due to overtime."
More Speed Indicated.
In reply to this contention, the men
declare that the railroads are easily
able to increase the operating speed of
their freight trains to make the run
between terminals possible within eight
hours. Improved and more powerful
locomotives will make this possible,
they say. Under present conditions the
freight trains are scheduled to move at
the rate of 10 miles an hour. Under the
proposed schedule they would- be re
quired to run at the rate of 12 miles
an hour.
The precise language in which the
demands are couched Is as follows:
"Article 1. (a) In all road nervlca

Higher Rates to Stand.
'Article 4. Any rates of pay, includ
ing mileage or arbitrary differentials
that are higher, or any rules or con
ditions of employment contained in in
dividual schedules in effect January 1,
1916, that are more favorable to the
employes, shall not be modified or
affected by any settlement reached in
connection with these proposals. The
general committee representing the
employes on each railroad will deter
mine which is preferable and advise the
officers of their company. Nothing in
the settlement that may be reached on
the above submitted articles is to be
construed to deprive the employes on
any railroad from retaining their pres
ent rules and accepting any rates that
may be agreed upon or retaining their
present rates and accepting any rules
that may be agreed upon."
In commenting on these demands.
the managers point out that these
rules provide neither for a minimum
nor for a maximum day of eight hours,
but by requiring the same pay for
eight hours as is now paid for 10 hours
they increase the wage rate per hour
25 per cent, and they make one hour's
work the equivalent of 12 Vi miles in
stead of 10 miles, thus reducing the
time after which overtime begins, and
increasing the hourly rate for over
time to 50 per cent more than the new
regular hourly rate.
Example Is Cited.
The managers use as an example
an engineer now paid at the rate of
$5.60 for 10 hours, or 56 cents an hour.
who would be paid under the new
rules at the rate of 70 cents an Hour,
which is an increase of 25 per cent, and
for overtime at the rate of $1.0o an
hour, instead of 56 cents, as at present.
an increase of BTVs per cent.
Another example that they use to
Illustrate the change in wages Is this:
A man whose run now takes 10 hours
for 10O miles or less, or a man em
ployed in yard, worktrain. pusher, or
helper service, who is paid on an hourly
basis, at a rate of 4 a day. or 4t cents
an hour, would be paid, under the pro
posed rules," for eight hours at 60 cents.
or 4. plus two hours at v& cents tone
and one-half times 60 cents), or J5.50.
which is an increase of $1.50 a day, or
37 per cent. (Article 1 a. b.)
If he should work la hours witnout
exceeding 10-0 miles he would be paid,
under the new rules, $4 for eight hours.
plus four hours' overtime at T5 cents.
or a total of $7 instead or 4, pius two
hours at 40 cents, $4.80, an increase of
45 per cent. (Article 1 a. b.)
A man who runs more tnan ion miles
would receive pay for his full mileage.
and If he made less than 124 miles
per hour he would also receive over
time at a rate 874 per cent higher
than the present rate. (Article 1, c.)
The reply of the men to all these
citations is for the railroad managers
to re arrange their service so as to
reduce overtime to a minimum.
The only reason they advance for the
high overtime rate Is that it is a puni
tive measure to enforce the eight
hour schedule.
BULLETS IN GUN STOCKS
Wooden Parts of ew Weapons
Pierced by Shot in Former Wars.
CHESTER. Pa., April 2. Employes
of the Remington Arms Company's
plant at Eddystone in turning out gun
stocks for the allies have made the in
teresttng discovery that they are con'
stantly coming across bullets Imbedded
in the rough walnut stocks. These
stocks are shipped to Eddystone in the
rough from points in the West and
South and stored in an immense dry
kiln.
It is considered not improbable that
the bullets may have been buried in
the trunks of the walnut trees either
in the war of half a century ago or
longer ago, in the days of bloody
strife between the "noble red men of
the forest" and the settlers of the West.
Kailroad Grants Wage Increase.
RICHMOND, Va., April 8. The Che 8
apeake & Ohio Railroad announced
from its general offices here today a
6 per cent increase to s)00'( machinist?
telegraph operators and laborers on all
divisions in settlement of their wage
controversy. The Increase will total
industrial activity." he writes, "while
tending to lighten the burden of paren
tal obligation, is creating problems
"which in their final issue concern the
future of the race.
Home Instincts Weakened.
"As effects of the withdrawal of fe
male life into industry, mention may be
made of the weakening of the home in
stincts, a love of independence and a
growing taste for pleasure and excite
ment. so that if marriage is entered
upon there is a growing unwillingness
to accept the duties and responsibilities
of motherhood."
In his conclusions Sir Thomas comes
directly at the civilization of the times.
He points out how local expedients like
industrial legislation are purely tem
porary, how checking the sale of drugs
and such methods are merely skimming
the surface, and calls attention to the
fact that evolution is at work and that
the race that for its own ease seeks to
set aside the natural courses Is merely
playing a brief game where nature ia
sure to win.
The root of the difficulty of which
decrease in birth rate is a symptom lies
aeep ana may presage the decline and
fall of another civilization.
AVhat Investigation Showed.
When the German birth rate began to
show material decline the government
investigated. It waa found that the for
eign element reproduced at a higher
rate, and this being true in Poland,
with its own language and national
characteristics, it was evident to the
authorities that there would be raised
problems of politics, government and
religion. The Germans likewise deter
mined that the greater falling off was
among the better classes. There were
attempts to correlate the greater losses
with the university and educated
classes, the element which it is most
essential to conserve.
The problem that the nations face is
to avoid the rate of Rome and Athens.
It is claimed that these great civiliza
tions fell because of the insufficient
number of children born within the
leading races.

WHEN you take your Shoes off tonight do this:
Bear your weight on your right Foot and, with
out lifting it off the floor, press it forward and back
ward firmly.
Then observe that only the bony and muscular Structure of your
Foot moves forward and backward, while its Sole stays fixed on the
floor.
That demonstrates the rolling motion of flesh and muscle, the
elastic Cushion quality "vhich reduces friction in walking, and prevents
slipping (backward, forward, or sideways).
It supplies that CLING quality, which gives Traction without
Friction.
It protects the Bone3 and Sinews of the Foot against the Wear
and Tear of action, as a lubricant protects Metal moving parts, while
providing the wonderful "Barefoot" hold on slippery surfaces.
That ROLLING MOTION, then, is the ideal aimed at in this Clingy,
Springy, and Stretchy black "Barefoot" Rubber of 1916 Goodrich Tires.
0NSIDER now the means by which many Tires have been
given maximum lraction, i.e., by means of a sand-
tanery" texture in the Rubber of their Anti-Skid Treads.
Everr time the Brakes are nut on. to make such. Tires c-rm t.h
road, the relatively hard, unyielding, and comparatively brittle, texture
of the Rubber in their Treads causes these Treads to grind away on the
pavement, to WEAR OUT fast at the point of contact.
The sudden efficiency of their grinding-Traction also tugs so
sharply on the Rubber Adhesive between the layers of Fabric in Tire as
to scpnctt thess I&ycrs
There is little "give" to them just as there is little "slide" to
them.
So, they gain Traction at the expense of Mileage.
Naturally such Tires require a great BULK of such Rubber in
order to deliver reasonable Mileage before worn out.
And, therein they differ radically from GOODRICH "Barefoot"
Tires.
Because, the Safety-Tread on Goodrich Tires is made of "Barefoot-Rubber,"
a new, and exclusive compound which discards all un
necessary whitish "frictional" ingredients that are heaviest and inert,
as proved by its lighter weight.
H
' ERE is how it acts in Automobiling,
When the weight of the Car bears on this clmgmjr
'Barefoot-Rubber" Tread, and the cower is aDDlied to e-o
ahead or reverse, the wonderful stretch in the "Barefoot" Rubber
bole (or Tread) of the Goodrich Tire acts as a sort of Lubricant between
the Fabric Structure of the Tire and the Road.
Then, the -Bareoo-Rubber "Toes, "of the Goodrich Safety-Tread
Tire, CLING to the pavement (instead of grinding against it), in such
manner as your Bare Foot would cling to a slippery surface without
Grind, and so, with the minimum of Frictional Heat or Wear for maxi
mum Traction.
Goodrich "Barefoot-Rubber" is now made into Goodrich FABRIC
Tires, Goodrich Silvertown Cord Tires, Goodrich Inner Tubes,
Goodrich Truck Tires, Goodrich Motor Cycle, and Bicycle, Tires, as)
well as into Goodrich Rubber Boots, Over-Shoes, Soles and Heels.
Get a Sliver of it from your nearest Goodrich Branch, or Dealer.
Stretch it thousands of times, but break it you can't.
That's the Stuff that GOODRICH Black-Tread Tires are made of.

FARMERS OPERATE TOWN
IOWA HAMLET HAS POPl'LATIOV
OF ONLY 10O.
Fernald Is Social Centex- for Agricul
turalists of Surroondiiur Dis
tricts Acreage High.
DES MOESTES. April 1. Out on the
prairies of Iowa is one of the most
novel towns In the country. There Is
no bickering between townspeople and
rural residents, as is often the case.
The farmers for miles around feel per
fectly free to go to town without wear
ing starched shirts and collars. There
Is an air of mutual interest between
town and country which would gladden
the heart of any rural life expert. The
reason for this is that the town ia
owned by the farmers themselves.
When he goes to town to buy a bar
of soap or a new plow, the farmer
buys of himself, or rather he is a part
ner in the store. When he goes to the
elevator he sells to his company the
grain he has brought in. Perhaps his
next stop will be at a bank owned and
managed by the farmers themselves.
The town Is named Fernald. AH or
its business enterprises are owned by
farmers living within a radius of three
or four miles. Though built 14 years
ago, when the railroad was built, Fer-
nald has a population of only 100, ana
probably will not grow much larger in
the years to come Decause or tne near
ness of numerous other towns. But this
does not mean that Fernald does not
expect to grow and prosper, for the far
sighted farmers who own the town do
practically all of their trading there
Instead of patronizing mail order
houses or buying in neighboring towns.
In fact, the town is just a big social
center for the whole community.
The town was founded by the farm
ers in order to avoid making long
hauls in delivering crops to the rail
road. A line elevator was built shortly
after the town was founded, but it waa
not until about two years ago that it
was purchased by a group of farmers
operating under the name of the Farm
ers' Grain company. H. S. Fleagle, the
farmer who put through the deal, was
made manager of the elevator. This
investment proved a wise one, for In
the first year under the . new manage
ment the elevator paid ia profit of 85
per cent on the 5000 capital.
The Farmers' Lumber company was
orcranizea by four farmers with oapi
talizatlon of $6400. Mr. Fleagle also
manages the affairs of this company
and its $10,000 stock. Another enter
prise founded by the farmers was the
Farmers' Co-operative ilercanlllo com
pany. After a brief period of competi
tion, the rival mercantile store waa
compelled to close its doors, leaving
MUtSe3entr joJ town; pa& 4tfl
business affairs entirely in the hands
of the farmers themselves.
The toivn's founders then established
the Farmers' Savings bank, with, capi
tal of $10,000. The deposits have
reached the $40,000 mark in three
years. Mr. Fleagle's ability for man
agement was recognized a third time
when he was made vice-president of
the bank.
Fernald is in Richland township in
Story County. Extensive use of tile
has converted the ordinary praire land
into some of the most valuable farms
in the state. Prices range from $200
to $250 an acre.

But brewing at home is mussy and

When you wake up with headache
and dull misery in the kidney region It
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says a well-known au

overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they be
come sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like you
do your bowels; removing all the body's
urinous waste, else you have headache,
sick headache, dizzy syells; your stom
ach sours, tongue is coated, and when
the weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment, channels often get sore, water
scalds and you are obliged to seek re
lief two or three times during the
night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi

take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
