RAILROAD RUMBLES HAVE NO STRIKE; ADVICE TO MEN Railroad Journal Declares Year of Argument Is Better Members of the four national brotherhood organizations represent ing the train and engine service who have declared their Intention of de manding an eight-hour day are ad vised as follows by the Railroad Em ployee, a monthly magazine not to strike: "Because th® employees' organiza tions are to make a demand upon the corporations for an eight-hour day. does not in our opinion imply the summary tleing up of traffic on the 45S railroads of the United States, or even the severance of an understand ing between the organizations and the | managements, which It has taken more than thirty years, not without sacrifice on either side, to upbuild. "The eight-hour day, as its provi sions would apply to every class of train and engine service, is, at best, a highly complicated problem, and we doubt if either the leaders of the em ployees' organizations formulating these demands or the railroad man agers can, at this early stage, satis factorily explain what It would mean in either schedule arrangements or company revenue, were the shorter workday to obtain: nor is there, to our understanding, any guarantee in sight that the eight-hour day, as applied to road service, would prove as gener ally satisfactory to the employees as the present existing arrangements governing this class of railroad em ployment. "And there are other phases bear ing on the situation which, In our opinion, will warrant the most thoughtful and painstaking considera tion by both sides, in which class pre judice or political expediency should play no part, with the thought ever In mind that in the final analysis the American public will render a verdict on the merits of the controversy from which there can be no appeal. "Admitting the unquestioned right of the wage-earner to leave his em poyment, and conceding that this is the only available weapon at his com mand to employ as a last resort when right, as he may see it, is denied him, we are entirely in accord with the ex pression of a man whom we consider among the ablest students of the labor problem in America, who is himself an active member of one of the big railroad brotherhoods, that "it is bet ter to argue for a year, than to strike for a minute,' rather than in sym pathy with the reported statement of another leader (hat 'the membership of his organization must be prepared to strike in order to secure the eight hour day.' "The greatest element of danger therefore, that presents itself in the forthcoming controversy, as we see it, is the action and influence of certain organization members on the one side and sundry railroad officials on the other, who have never participated in a real strike, and consequently have no conception of what industrial war fare fought to the finish really means; of the misery and privation that inevitably follow In Its wake, no to mention the engendered hatred that a generation cannot efface." More Freight Embargoes to Prevent Congestions Announcement was made yesterday by the Pennsylvania Railroad Coni pany that it has again become neces sary to refuse to accept for shipment freight for New England and for de livery in the New York district. The recent rapid accumulation of freight has been due to a number of causes, not the least of which was the dense fog hanging over the waters around New York the past few days. The New York, New Haven & Hart ford Railroad, because of the fog and because of an accumulation of freight on its own lines, has been unable for some time past to take from the Pennsylvania Railroad its normal number of cars. The result has been that to-day there are on the' Pennsyl vania Railroad approximately 5000 cars awaiting delivery. The general congestion In the New York district and on the railroad be tween West Morrisvllle, Pa., and Jer sey City, has made it impossible to expedite the delivery of freight to local points on the New York divi sion. The result of all of the above is that to-day there are approximately 25,000 cars of freight on this rail road, destined to points east of Tren ton or for delivery to other lines at junction points east of that point. The new embargo is on all kinds of freight routed in the congested terri tory except livestock, perishable goods, foodstuffs for human consump tion, consignments to United States Government officers and fuel supply coal consigned direct to railroads.

Seator, instructor in music at the University of Southern California. They met for the first time six weeks ago. Artistic temperament and the admirationl of each for what they re garded as genius in the other is the magnet that drew the painter and Miss Seator together. Each is twenty-four years of age. Bartiett, who is also an accomplished musician, met Miss Seator during a lecture on voice culture, Miss Seator being the piano soloist and Bartlett giving a cello solo. Since that time Bartlett has been a constant visitor at the Seator home, and the couple have just announced the news of their engagement. Bartlett's keen interest in the young woman became known to her first when, in visiting his studio with her mother, she discovered him working on a portrait of her from memory. Thomas, Llbhart.
