aper Rn United Press Servies. t gomery 8 Weet 4th & | The Seattle Star ::«" by T epresentatives, Ban Francisco r Ave, New Willard and Labor “Sd Date board takes pleasure it ing its appreciation of the and efficient co-operation of officers and employes during the year, and is desirous that this sympathetic understanding and relationship now existing may be contin ued,” So reads the closing paragraph of the annual report of President Daniel Willard of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad This is the sequel to President Willard’s sponsorship of co-operation between rail road employers and employes during the shopmen’s strike three years ago Backed by Attorney General Daugh erty’s injunctions, a number of railway executives sought a “fight to the finish” witi. labor. President Willard refused to adopt this policy, and was the first to ne gotiate with his employes As an outgrowth of this co-operati Baltimore & Ohio “employes and officers meet in conference at least once, and in many cases twice, each month At such conferences a free expression of views is encouraged, and many valuable and con- structive suggestions have been made by men in all branches of service And not only labor is pleased with President Willard’s attitude, Wall Street, too, recognizes the value of his co-opera- tive efforts. While certain other railws stocks have been laggard thruout the past two years, Baltimore & Ohio stock has in- creased $40 a share, just doubling it former price. The Future SELF-GOVERNING people, it has been remarked, must necessarily breed govarnors—that is, their institu- tions must be such as will fit citizens for governing. Do we Americaks, self-governing peo ple, breed governor: Are our institu- tions of that kind? When we see some of our colleges de- voting most of their attention to athletics instead of to scholarship; when" we see ex appeal” movies drawing crowds of thousands nightly; when we see our nee halls and pool rooms jammed, our cab- arets and roadhouses filled and our blind tigers and speak-easies doing a rushing business—we sometimes wonder just what we are breeding. To be sure, when the next crisis comes to us, the right men to lead us thru it will appear. And they will have been devel- oped, somehow, by our American institu- tions. But they won't be the ones who were filling our cabarets, bootleg joints and notoriety-seeking colleges. Poor Fish PHILADELPHIA woman had her pet goldfish embalmed when it died, shrouded it in gold and silver cloth and placed it in an ebony coffin. Ten au- tomobiles followed the funeral car to the cemetery. Honestly, now: wouldn’t any self-re- specting monkey, or even one not so self- respecting, be just a little bit loath to ad- mit any sort of kinship with the human race? loyal Tolerance PLEA for tolerance i for tolerance along religious and racial line usually a plea goes farther than a dreadful forms are almost But tolerance really that, Religious intolerance i thing, but the other equally objectionable is largely, withholding judg fellow men until we know Tolerance ment on our all the facts How them seldom we really do know all The man who broke into your house and robbed it; how much do you know ¢ the struggles and trials he went thru be- fore he did it? Or the girl who gave back your son's ring and went away with another man; what do you know of the impulses and cross-currents that eddied back and forth in her breast? Even if you do know all the facts, it doesn’t hurt to be charitable in forming your opinions, And when you don't know them—don’t form one, Greece's Mussolini OW it’s Greece's turn to have a Mus- solini. After about a year as a republic, she has indulged in another of her little flip- flops, now become a habit. The future of the provisional president, Admiral Coundouriotis, seems a trifle un- certain, but Premier Mikhalakopoulos has been kicked out. The revolutionists, headed by General Pangalos and Admiral Hadjikiriako: charge him with being inefficient. We had thought him’ pretty good. Only a short time ago, despite Gree plight, he raised a $60,000,000 loan among the hardest boiled money sharks extant. Which is to say he got $11,000,000 from Wall Street, $37,500,000 from London and $11,500,000 from the canny Greeks them- selv $ Incidentally this was the first Gree loan ever floated in this country. At 7 per cent it went like hot cakes and was subscribed many times. neral Pangalos, dispatches say, is at the head of the new government—a mili- tary affair apparently of the Mussolini ‘a type. los is something of a fire-eater | Greece's recent dictators, the Colonels | Gonatas and Plastiras—who staged the revolution: following the Asia Minor dis aster and sent King Constantine into ex- ile—found it the hardest part of his job to hold him down. In command of the Greek army along the Maritza, in Thrace, he was con- stantly rarin’ to go after the Turks on the other side of the river. He has never forgiven Kemal Pasha for what happened at Smyrna and thereabouts. If the revolution leaves Pangalos in the saddle, the country will likely take on a more nationalistic trend. This Greek Mussolin: will.make his one love, the army, his implement and tool and neigh- bors, particularly the Turks, had better watch their step. P ?

Of course, yours truiy doesn’t know any more about the par- ticulars of Adam’s start than the evolutionists do, There's pretty considerable details about —_—_—____J creation that yours truly hain't figured out yet. But, lookin over the four-legged critters of past and that Adam has done pretty well for a fellow with his viscera on wrong, Maybe Adam’s insides were hung on the horizontal to remind him that he easily could become a brute, just as it re- quires plenty of fleas to remind 4 coon hound that he is a dog. Often one is saddened by the Jack of details in the Bible stor- jes. Sometime: those reporters of two centuries ago seem to have been like some modern re- porters, who bring in a story that's pretty much all imagina- tion or that leaves much to the imagination of the readers. Any- how, if Adam's innards ain't hung in him right, it will both- er any scientist to proye that there ain't some good reason for it. K. P.
