Bice, Editor Union Times, Union, S. Dear Mr. Ricot We agrqe on A great many subjects and I read all of your editorials with a great deal of interest and I nm sorry that wf have such different views with nefesrenco to the railroad strike. I have mad the editorials in The State, Columbia Record, Sparta n. ourg Journal, Greenville News and The Union Times since the strike l as been in progress and invariably they t all denounce the striking shop crafts and in many instances it seems to be , the desire of ihe editors to li^o ild public opinion against the men who , are on strike and to place them in i^e light of outlaws, desperadoes or criminals. In your editorial you make the statement that the unions in the . North and Northwest are control'ed by foreign element. This is not a f iir statement, for they are not. Who . <ver heard of the name of Lee, Stone, i Jewell. Fitzgerald or Manion bc'ng .1 called foreign? Of course there are , a few foreigners working as shop. .1 men in ihe North, South, East and West but as to the unions being con,, trolled by foreigners this is not a statement of facts as they are not 'j controlled or dominated by foreigners. You make the statement that the : Southern Railway met all the der manda of the strikers, which is not a , fact, as they only agreed to the plan rf settlement as suggested by President Harding, and as an editor yoi. * should know that the striking shopi. men could not accept, the offer of the -j Southern Railway on account of the strik" b??ing a nation-wide affair and all dealings between the striking c hopnten and the railroad oveeuti'.es >' has been done for the past- four years - through some government agency e such as the Labor Board and has I hen on the basis of collective bargain. ,, ing and this method his been aps proved by the United States governe rnent. You do not mention that the shop crafts have already accepted two r cuts in pay and that the strike was to prevent another. There arc a few t oucstion I would like to have answered correctly, and I think if they arc n answered correctly it will have a tenj dency to place the shopmen and railj road men in a different light before j the public. 0' Who instituted the Railway Lntoi d' Po^d? j j Who selected the Railway Labo< ! Board? j ,T What is the former occupation of ^ the Railway Labor Board? How have the JRaihvay Executive? r regarded the rufltys of the Railw..j Labor Board? 1U ^ Isr it or is ltM^t a fact lhat the present strike vbis brought about n principally by tflfl railroad executive: t openly and flaJlntly violating the n ruling3 ofthelJrboard to the detriment of"the sml yMtopnffcn ? Is it not a fat that the shopmer ^ were receiving | wage 25 per ceri' ^ under the figure, compiled by the Do. partment of Conifpefp and Labor a? being necessary for not only the shopmen but for all other classes fo live? Have the railway execu'ives e"?u ^ violated the rulings of the Lnbig Board? If so, in how many ease? ^ and hv how many roads? Did vou t'Vpr hear of the Itailroi. Labor Board calling the railway ey ecutives outlaws on accounl of ?nes< violations ? II If you get right down to th<> mill in the cocoanut is "it not a fact thai I py/ict'caMy "very railroad in the Umf orl States is overcapitalized and bond ^ cd from one hundred to one thousnra j per cent and is this not the veal reason that freight rates are high? Has not the cut already made b^ ^ the railroads in wages of their em. , ployees and accepted by them beer t nearly three times more in mone< I value than enough to offset the slight reduction made in freight rates? What percentage of the food stufTs | live stock, and country produce raised by the farmers of this country is con sumed by the railroad employees ol the United States? (These figures aTc available). What effect would it have on the price of foodstuffs and farm produce ' produced by the firmer if the railroad employees unions w?vo crushed and they were placed on starvation wages ? I worked for a railroad for tor I years and I can truthfully say that ' any man working for the railroadf earns every dollar he receives, re. j gardless of what he is doing, unless it be some of some banker who holds such an amount of bonds of the road ' that he can place this son in an execu tive position at an exhorbitnnt and * extravagant salary and I will say here that, there arc a great many of these favored sons holding executive positions that know about as nun-h 1 al?out railroading as a highland terrapin knows about leather hoots. Give the man who moves the trains by the sweat of his brow and the knowledge of his brain his just deserts and this will be n better country. P.. J. Parham.

Two instrumental numbers were given by Misses Geraldine Bowen and Sarah Scott. Mcsdames R. C. Coleman and W. W. Wood gave interest irg reports of the work. Mrs. S. T. Blackmon gave a pleasing short address in behalf of the Methodist m;s sionary society while Mrs. J. W.
