L_ All the News At a Glance Summary of Interesting Events In City, State and Country By Bessie Marshall Walker The President has pounced upon the two points in his pro posals that the carriers and the striking shopmen hold in common and by the practical recognition of the Federal Railroad Labor Board wishes to present for arbi tration that hotly disputed ques tion, “Seniority.” The execu tives’ argument that their honor is at stake in the promises made to the men who have carried on the transportation system is con vincing. The strikers took law and order in their own hands .vhen they rejected the decisions af the Federal Board. The Presi ient brings the issue back to the starting point. If the Board granted the seniority of the strik ers the men who now fill three fourths of the strikers’ places ander specific promises of the executives and the declaration from the President that they were working under the protec tion of the government and that their labor was of the nature of j a public service, would be sacri-^ iced. To save the honor of both j Federal and Railroad executives; the Labor Board could render j >nly one decision. That decision vould impose a punishment upon the strikers in the deprivation of j their seniority and the loss of 75 I per cent of their places in thei shops. The crisis points to company unionism, an organization of la oor officered by the workers themselves, not professional agi tators, by men who are part of the industry and who are cog nizant of the conditions apper taining to their special units.

ANDREWS 218-219 Guarantee Trust Building Phone 267-J City Solicitor to Attend Hearing Application having been made by G. D. Earle for riparian rights along the frontage from Little Rock to Surrey Avenues on In side Thoroughfare, immediately adjacent to the public wharf con structed by the city several years ago, Common Council has in structed City Solicitor Westcott to represent the city at a hearing to be held before the State Board of Commerce and Navigation at Newark on August 21. Freeholder C. Claude Scull, own$r. of waterfront lots in that section as well as on Ventnor Heights, is also expected to at tend the session. In view of possible detriment to the wharfage facilities provided by the city it has been deemed expedient that the city’s rights be safeguarded by proper represen tation at th hearing. It is under stood that comprehensive plans for bulkheading and filling have been made and in this event the city dock would be circumscribed to such an extent-as to virtually nulify the facilities now pro vided. The land frontage for which the water rights are being sought is so narrow in depth that unless a riparian grant is secured that nothing can be done with the property', according to the own ers. Although bulkheaded many years ago by the Harris-Godfrey interests the retaining wall dis integrated long ago and the re sulting erosion of the tides has resulted in 'the washing away of the earth to such an extent that now the sidewalk has been under mined.
