LADor Leaders 'Propose Trepar tlte Control of Railroad* Con futing of the Public, Operating Management and Employe*. Organized labor came out this week with the unequivocal, formal demand that private capi tal be retired from the railroads. A tripartite control, composed of the public, the operating management and the employes is demanded instead. Addressed to the American publio and signed by the engi neers, the firemen, the conduct ors, and the American Federa tion of Labor, a formal state ment was issued announcing this proposl which was carried before Congress Wednesday. ‘ It marks,’'says the statement, the step by which organized labor passes from demands for wage increases to demands that the system of profits in industry be overhauled.” This sentence sums up in a few words the proposal, of which there have been nints and Indications, bnt which is now laid before the country for the first time. Everywhere in official Washington it is recognized as the most serious and far-reach ing proposition the country will be called on to face. CUBE FOB SOARING PRICES. “Characterizing the proposal as labor’s bill” it is pnt forth as a remedy for the high cost of living, because are the key in dustry of the nation. It de mands the “genuine co-operation and partnership based on a real comtnunity of interest and parti cipation in control,” of which President Wilson spoke to Con gress, and which the statement says has been ignor d by labor and the private owners of the railroads. : “We ask,” it says, “that the railroads of United States be vested iq the public; that those actually engaged in conducting that industry, not from Wall street but from railroad offices andyards and out on therailroad lines, shall take charge of this service for the public.” Briefly, labor s plan demands: That private capital be eUmi ' . ' LEASE THE ROADS. That the tripartite contro heretofore referred to, be estab lish’ed, in corporations whicl shall lease the roads and ii which the public, the operating managements and labor shall b< represented equally. That the public, the operator) and tiie wage earners shan equally all revenue in excess o: the guarantee to private capital by granting to the operators ano the employes one-half the sav ings which are expected to b< made by such a perfected organ ization, and the public the othei half as consumers, either by in creasing service without adding costs or by reducing costs, ‘This role originates witl labor." says the statement, “be cause labor happens to have Hrn organization through which i may become articulate.” Jonesboro News Items.
