Republicans manifested opposition
early today and indicated they would

ertheless, administration officials feel
that the entire program will go
through within 10 days.
Text of the Address.
The president's speech to congress
follows:
"Gentlemen of the congress:
"I have come to you to seek your
assistance in dealing with a very grave
situation which has arisen out of the
demand of the employes of the rail-
iohjIh encased In fieieht train service
that they be granted an eight-hour
woiking day, safe-guarded by payment
for an hour and a half of service for
every hour of work beyond the eight.
"The matter has been agitated for
more than a year. lhe public naj
been made familiar with the demands
of the men and the arguments urtted
in favor of them and even more fami -
iar with the objections of the ra'l-
roads and their counter demand tha'
certain privileges now enjoyed by their
men and certain basis of payment
worked out through many years of
contest be reconsidered, especially In
their relation to the adoption of an
men be submitted in their entirety to
arbitration along with certain ques
tions of readjustment as to pay and
conditions of employment which
seemed to them to be either closely
associated with the demands or to
call for reconsideration on their own
merits; the men absolutely declined
arbitration, especially if any of their
established privileges were by that
means to be drawn again in question.
The law in the matter put no compul
sion upon them.

Acta As Public's Spokesman.
just 'so soon as it became evident
that mediation under the existing law
had failed and that arbitration had
been rendered impossible by the atti
tude ot the men, I considered it my
duty to confer with the representa
tives of both the railways and the
brotherhood and mvulf nff- i ;
- - j v i i iiicuia-
tion, not as an arbitrator hut mer.lv
as spokesman of the nation, in the
Interest of justice. Indeed, and as a
friend of both parties, but not as
Judge, only as the representative of
jl 00,000,000 of men, women and chil
dren, who would pay the price, the
j incalculable price, of loss and siiffer-
ing should these few men insist upon
i approaching and concluding the mat
ters in controversy between them
merely as employers and employes,
rather than as patriotic citizens of
the United States, looking before and
after and accepting the larger respon
sibility which the public would put
upon them.
Spirit of Time for Elglit Boar Say.
ii Beemeu lu ihc, in considering m
subject matter of the controversy, what
the whole spirit of the time an I the
preponderant evidence or the recent
economic experience, spoke for the
eight hour day. It has been adjudged
by the thought and experience of re
cent years a thing upon which fcjeiety
Is. Justified in insisting, as in the In
terest of health, efficiency, content
ment and a general increase of eco
nomic vigor. The whole presumption
of modern experience would, it seemed
to me, be In its favor, whether there
was arbitration or not, and th. debat
able points to settle wete those whicti
arose out of the aecectance of tne ciffht
hour day, rather than those wh-ch af
fected its establishment.
Proposed Shorter Say
"I therefore proposed that the eight
hour day be adopted by the railway
managements and put into practice
for the present as a substitute for the
existing 10 hour basis of pay and
service; that I should appoint, with
the permission of congress, a small
commission to observe the results of
the change, carefully studying the
figures of the altered operating costs
not only, but also the costs of labor
under which the men worked and the
operation of their existing agreements
with the railroads with instructions
to report the facta as they found
them , to the congress at the earliest
STRIKE
possible day, but without recommen
dation, and that, after the facts had
been thus disclosed, an adjustment
should in some orderly manner be
ought of all the matters now left
unadjusted between the railroad man
agers and the men.
Za &lae with Supreme Court.
"These proposals were exactly in
line, it is interesting to note with the
position taken by the supreme court
of the United States when appealed to
to protect certain litigants from the
financial losse which they confidently
expected If they should submit to the
regulation of their charges and of
their methods of service by public
legislation. The court has held that
it would not undertake to form a Judg
ment upon forecasts, but could base its
action only upon actual experience.
that it must be supplied with facts,
not with calculations and opinions.
however scientifically attempted. To
undertake to arbitrate the question of
the adoption of an eigh-hour day in
th llarht of results merely estimated
and predicted would be to undertake
an enterprise of conjecture. No wise
man ctould undertake it, or. if he did
undertake it, could feel assured of his
conclusions.
Offered to Assure Justice.
"I unhesitatingly offered the friend
ly services of the administration to
tlie railway managers to see to it that
Justice was done the railroads in the
outcome. I felt warranted in assuring
them that no obstacle of law would be
suffered to stand in the way f i-heir
increasing their revenues to meet the
expenses resulting from the change so
far avthe development of their ousi
ness and of their administrative effi
ciency did not prove adequate to meet
them. The public and the representa
tives of the public, I felt justified in
assuring them, were disposed to noth
ing but Justice in such cases, and were
willing to serve those who served them.
Railroads Declined Plan.
"The representatives of the brother
hoods accepted the plan; but the rep
resentatives of the railroads declined
to accept it. In the face of what I
cannot but regard as the practical cer
tainty that they will be ultimately
obliged to accept the eight hour day
by the concerted action of organized
labor, backed by the favorable Judg
ment of society, the representatives
of the railway management have felt
justified in declining a peaceful set
tlement which would engage all the
forces of justice, public and private,
on their side, to take care of the event.
They fear the hostile Influence of
shippers, who would be opposed to an
Increase of freight rates (for which.
however, of course the public itself
would pay); they apparently feel no
confidence that the Interstate Com
merce commission could withstand the
objections that would be made.
Will Wot ely on President.
"They don't care to rely upon the
friendly assurances of the congress or
the president. They have thought it
best that they should be forced to
yield, if they must yield, not by coun
sel, but by the suffering of the coun
try. While my conferences with them
were in progress, and when to all out
ward appearances thof-e conferences
had come to a standstill, the represen
tatives of the brotherhoods suddenly
acted, and eet the strike for Septem
ber 4.
"The railway managers based their
decision to reject my counsel in this
matter upon their convvction that they
must, at any cost to themselves or to
the country, stand firm for the prin
ciple of arbitration, which the mn had
rejected. I based my counsel upon
the indisputable fact that there was
no means of obtaining arbitration. The
law supplied none. Earnest effoits at
mediation had failed to influence the
men in the least.
Great Distress Involved.
"Ta stand firm for the principle of
arbitration and yet not get arbitration
seemed to me futile, and something
more than futile, because it involved
incalculable distress to the country and
consequences in some respects -vorse
than thos.f of war. and that ir, the
midst of peace. 1 yield to no man in
firm adherence alike of conviction and
of purpose to the principlejof aroitra
tlon in industrial disputes, but mat
ters have come to a sudden crisis in
this particular dispute, and the country
has been caught unprovided with any
practicable means of enforcing that
conviction in practice (by whose fault
we will noi now stop to inquire i. A
situation h:.d to be met where elements
and fixed conditions were indisputable.
But One Course to Pursue.
"The practical and patriotic course
to pursue, as it seemed to me, was
to secure immediate peace bj- con
ceding the one thing in the demands
of the men which society itself and
any arbitrators who represented pub
lic sentiment were most likely to ap
prove and immediately lay tne foun
dations for securing arbitration with
regard to everything else involved.
The event has confirmed that judg
mjent. I was seeking to compose the
present in order to safeguard the fu
ture; for 1 wish an atmosphere or
peace and friendly cooperation in
v.'hich to take counsel with the repre
sentatives of the nation with regard
to the best means for providing, so
far as it might prove possible to
provide, against the recurrence of such
ur.happy situations in the future the
best and most practicable means of
securing calm and fair arbitration of
all industrial disputes in the days to
come. This is assuredly the Dest way
of vindicating a principle, namely.
having failed to make certain of its
observance In the present, to make
certain of its observance in the future.
Could Hot Govern Others' Will.
"But I could not propose. I could
not gqvern the will of others who
took an entirely different view of the
circumstances of the case, who even
refused to admit the circumstances to
be what they have turned out to be.
"Having failed to bring the parties
to this critical controversy to accom
modation, therefore, I turn to you,
deeming it clearly our duty as public
servants to leave nothing undone that
we can do to safeguard the life and
Interests of the nation. In the spirit
of such - purpose, I earnestly recom
mend the following legislation :

How to Lose Your Tan.
Freckles or Wrinkles
A day's motoring, an afternoon on
the tennis grounds or golf links, a
sunbath on the beach or exposure on
a sea trip, often brings on a deep tan
or vivid crimson or, more perplexing
still, a vigorous crop of freckles. A
very necessary thing then is merco
lleed wax. which removes tan. rednesa
or freckles quite easily. It literalliy
peels off the affected skin just a
little at a time, so there's no hurt or
injury. As the skin comes off in al
most Invisible flaky particles, no trace
of the .treatment is shown. Get an
ounce of mercolized wax at your drug
gist's and use this nightly as you
would cold cream, washing It off
mornings. In a week or so you will
have an entirely new skin, beautifully
clear, transparent and of a most deli
cate whiteness.

purposes, with authority to draft into

require for their safe and efficient
use.
"This last suggestion I make be
cause we cannot in any circumstances
suffer the nation to be hampered in the
essential matter of national defense.
At the present moment circumstances
render this duty particularly obvious.
Almost the entire military force of the
nation is stationed upon the Mexican
border to guard our territory against
hostile raids. It must be supplied and
steadily supplied with whatever it
needs for its maintenance and ef
ficiency. If it should be necessary for
purposes of national defense to trans

tice to some other part of the coun
try, for reasons now unforeseen, am
ple means of transportation must be

in all such cases it should ba clear and

A Message to Thin
Weak Scrawny Folks
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 Founds .
of Solid, Healthy Permanent Flesh,
Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
"I can't understand why 1 do not get
fat. I eat plenty of good nourishing
food." The reason is .lust this: You
cannot get fat. no matter how much
you eat, unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat-makinj? elements of
your food instead of passing them out
through the body as waste.
What is needed ia a means of gentlv
urging the assimilative functions of
the stomach and intesunes to absorb
the oils and fats and hand them ovtr
to the blood, where they may reach the
starved, shrunken, run-down - tissues
and build them up. The thin person's
body is like a dry sponge eager and
hungry for the fatty materials of
which it is being deprived by the
failure of the alimentary canal to take
them from the food. A splendid way
of working to overcome this sinful
waste of flesh building elements and
to stop the leakage of fats is to try
Sargol, the famous flesh building
agent that has been so widely sold In
America in recent years. Take a little
Sargol tablet with every meal 'and see
if your cheeks don't Miilckly fill out
and rolls of firm, healthy flesh form
over your body, covering each bony
angle and projecting point. All good
druggists have Sargol or can get it
from their wholesaler, and will refund
your money if you are not satisftc i
with the gain in weight it produces as
stated on the guarantee In each largo
package. It is inexpensive, easy to
take and highly efficient.
NOTE: Bargol is recommended only
as a flesh builder and while excellent
results in cases of nervous indiges
tion, etc.. have been reported, care
should be taken about using it unless
a gain of weight is desired. (Adv.)
