CALL IS 1SSUED B NEW PARTY Voters Interested in Publie Ownership Asked to Meet at Fresno Next Thursday —_— BAKERSFIELD, Feb. 17.—The Public Ownership party recently organized in Bakersfield has issued the following ad- dress: ““The railroad or transportation question must be settled,*and. of necessity, be set- tled effectually and justly. To this every man who desires healthier and fairer busi ness or economic conditions agrees. The mass-meeting of the Public Ownership party called to assemble at Fresno on the 224 of this month will be actuated by this spirit and will, for the first time in the history of the county, afford a direct way for the American people to consummate this jdea—the public ownership idea. The public ownership idea declares that the people must own, control and operate the railroads and the railroad plants which | shall carry the passengers and freight of the nation. It further declares that the people should likewise own and operate all other public uses and public utilities, whether State, county or municipal in their scope. “The efforts of the Democratic and Re- publican members of Congress in their united zeal to enact some sort, any sort, of a rate regulation or Government su- pervision, that Government ownership of railroads might be prevented, unequivocal- ly disposes-of any hope that friends may have had that either one or both of the old political organizations would incor- porate the idea in their next national “We urge you now to cast aside any vain hopes and attend the Fresno mass- meeting, that this movement may show the full vigor, determination and stalwart free spirit of the West. “Any man who will declare himself for the cause will have a right to a voice in the proceedings.” The address bears the names of several residents of Bakersfield, together with Castle of Merced, H. O. Smith of Porter- ville, H. G. Walker of Oakland and R. A. Dague of Alameda, members of the com- mittee in charge. —_———— PREPARING FOR A CONVENTION OF SUNDAY-SCHOOL TEACHERS Completing Arrangements for Twelfth Annual Gatherips of Church ‘Workers at Napa.
