The 1916 statement by A B Garretson, then chief of conductors, is recalled as he testifies to the House interstate commerce committee. He says union leaders strain to prevent discontent from breaking into violence, hinting at a strike. He adds that if the Government fails to measure up, a mechanical agency should do what the Constitution requires.
The Plumb Plan League press release denies coercion for railroad nationalization under tripartite control while highlighting two core issues: the Plumb plan and curbing profiteers via higher wages. Critics argue terror methods fail to win broad support, urging unions to clarify their position in plain terms to regain citizen patience and respect.
A critical look at the so called Wall Street conspiracy finds it a dud. Plumb and aides claim the Interests pushed heavy maintenance to boost costs while government rail operations under McAdoo and Hines faced shortages and deferred upkeep. The piece weighs costs, output, and wage effects, arguing prewar private efficiency versus wartime overruns.
A wartime style dispute centers on a planned steel strike with claims of a conspiracy to plunder the public treasury. The piece critiques foreign-born steel workers, arguing many send savings home and resist American living standards, while accusing union leaders of misrepresenting conditions and implying universal misery.
A New York docked ship brings 111 pure bred Guernsey and Jersey cows from England, described as valuable dairy stock enriching national wealth. The piece highlights exceptional milk records such as Primrose of Oaks Farm, with two year output far above average, and argues for welcoming the animals as a boon to America and its farmers. It also comments on race, labor notes, and social expectations of the era.
