Dead Came Alive Lazarus had been dead four days when Jesus met Martha, the dead man's sister. Jesus tells Martha—He that believes in Me, though he were dead and in the grave, yet shall he live. And he that is living when I return to raise up the saved, shall never go into the grave—BIBLE. Jesus next went to the dead man’s tomb and had them roll away the stone. Then with a shout—LAZARUS COME FORTH, Lazarus who had been dead anJ in decay came forth wrapped head and foot in grave clothes with his face wrapped up in a napkin.— John llth-BIBLE.

WHY THE MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILROAD STRIKE? efficiently or economically if the leaders of tbe unions ignore agreements or laws. 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. he leaders of the Brotherhood ot Engineers, Brotherhood T Locomotive 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. There is no Need for Strikes You’ll find the best in meats at KING’S Market regardless of the cut or kind, plus service that makes shopping a pleasure. KING’S Grocery - Market "Where Your Money Buys Mnre” Phone 91 I At the Mile Bridge Riverview Provisions ot the ..aw which are Disregarded President Truman’s Board Condemns Strike There is an established legal method for handling disputes involving existing writ ten contracts—just as there is such a method of settling any contract dispute which you may have in your daily life. The President of the United States ap pointed a Fact Finding Board to investi gate and adjust the Missouri Pacific dis pute. This Board reported, in part, as follows: With all of the available methods for the interpretation of contracts, there is no need for a 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 a 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 "... H is with • deep sense ot regret that we ui obliged to report the failure of our mis sion. Il seems ineonaeivable to us that a coercive strike should occur on one of the nation's major transportation systems, with all of the losses and hardships that would follow, in vie* of the fact that the Railway labor Act provides an orderly, efficient and complete remedy foe the fair and just set tlement of the matters In dispute. Griev ances of the character here under discussion we so numerous and of such frequent occur rence on all railroads that the general adop tion of the policy pursued by the organiza tions in this case would soon result In the complete nullification of the Railway labor Art. ...’ What are These Strikes About? Obviously the railroads cannot be ran 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 a full day 's pay for less than a day ’s work, or for payments for services performed by others who were fully paid for the work done. There are five ways under the Railway Labor Act to settle disputes over the mean ing of contracts: 1— Decision by National Railroad Ad justment Board. 2— Decision by System Adjustment Board for the specific railroad. 3— Decision by arbitration. 4— Decision by neutral referee. 5— Decision by courts. The Missouri Pacific Railroad has been and is entirely willing to have these dis putes settled in accordance with the re quirements of the Railway I-abor Act. Regardless of this fact, the union leaders have shut down that railroad. Innocent bystanders Suffer Losses and Hardships There are about 5,000 engineers, firemen, conductors and trainmen on the Missouri Pacific. They are known as "operating” employes, and are the most highly paid of all employes on the nation’s railroads, but their strike action has resulted in the loss of work to 22,500 other employes 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 iust such in terruptions of commerce. If these men will not comply with the prov*e* ■■■ of the law for the settlement of such disputes, then all thinking Amerieaas must face the geeo- Uoa. "What is the seif step?” tASTgRH R ailroads
