His reply was to the effect that if the widows and ‘chil- dren still had their holdings the low point of the stock had not reached, but “if the small investors have been shaken out then the stock is due for a rise.” §o, he says, if the public is wise it will stand pat or do exactly opposite from what certain bly operators are trying to make it do. Of course {t goes without saying that, in the case cited, the “widows and children” who on holding onto their stock would get the benefit of the rise manipulated by the big unless. indeed, the “big operators” abandoned thelr plan for such mani- pulation.

Al- though“a dollar might buy the same things today, the trouble is that demands today more than the things it demanded in 1917. Thus the pur- chasing power is not the lite bhasis upon which may be placed a decision as to comparative fairness of wages. “Common labor" suffers in this reduction of wages which af- the ‘most fects those engaged in maintenance of | way, which classification covers about seventy per cent of rallroad employes.

The Rocky Road to Dublin is a smooth highway ‘compared to this adway.
