Press can be aeen.
Entered at the postofflce at Kinston. North Carolina, at
aocond-las matter nnder act of Congress, March 8, 1876
Tha Free Press has before gone ta record in counsel
ling those, who have differences, to resort to arbitration,
particularly ao with reference to the dispute now existing
between the large railroad systems of the country and
their operating employes. The employes have for some
reason, declined to consider arbitration, an4 are now
conducting a referendum in their ranks to determine
whether or no a strike, which will tie up every trunk sys
tem in America, shall be called.
The Free Press knows nothing bout the contentions.
It does know that the public-at-large will be very mate
rially affected regardless of what may be the outcomt.
There is n wage increase among the issues and if this is
granted, the public, of course, will have to pay the bill.
It may be a just demand, and The Free Press is not ad
vocating that it should not be granted. On the other
hand, if a strike is precipitated and three' hundred and
fifty thousand men become idle and the railroads of this
country are tied up, the public, which they serve, will puf
fer irreparably.
These differences should be adjusted by arbitration, for
they cannot be satisfactorily settled in any other way.
Subscribers are requested to notify, by Telephone
7B, The Free Press of any irregularity of delivery or
Inattention whatsoever on the part of the carriers.
After Six P. M. subscribers are requested to call West
ern Union and report failure to get the paper. A copy
rill be sent promptly, if complaint is made before Nine
P. M without cost to subscriber.
SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 15, 1916
Indeed, "it is an ill wind that blows nobody good," and
it might be well to remember the truism here expressed,
when inclined to complain about the excessively hot wea
ther, that the growing crops have entered no protest.
Brothers Clark, Shipman and Britton had some diffi
culty in preserving their identity, or at least in avoiding
3eing mistaken for one another. They each and all ap
peared somewhat "indignant" at the confusion, but there
was no apparent cause, from the viewpoint of the on
looker, for a well-founded grievance.
Not only is the excessive cost of living, now touching
so intimately the people of every VaMt in life, attributed
largely to the war, which has produced a scarcity of ma
terials and an increased demand, hut even the man-eating
sharks, which have appeared on the Atlantic coast, are
said to have been forced to prey upon human beings be-
cause of the great decrease in ocean travel due to the
war and the consequent decrease in the waste from kit
chens, form the great ocean liners. Surely the war gods
must some day account for a multitude of sins.
NIP DEADLY GERMS IN BUD.
Fortunate for the country that the health authorities
of New York City and of the United States Public Health
Service realized so promptly the necessity for strenuous
efforts to allay the spread of Infantile paralysis, laying
siege by the scores to children of the Metropolis. The
, reports coming from New York are somewhat more en
couraging, indicating that the malady is yielding a little
to the battle of science, but unquestionably had there
fceen delay in employing preventive measures, the epi
demic would have affected a very much larger area than
has been stricken.
The health authorities have set a splendid example in
this case, The time to prevent serious contagion is
when the symptoms of a scourge, which may develop at
any time into an epidemic, first appear. "Nipped in the
bpd" deadly germs can bo more readily controlled than
when they are given carte blanche until they are fully
developed and have sent out their tentacles of death and
suffering in every direction. "A stitch in time saves

DURHAM'S HOSPITALITY.
It makes no difference where the PresH Association of
North Carolina elects to hold its annual sessions, there
can never be more attention given to the entertainment
and the comfort of those who attend than was the case
at Durham. There whs simply one continual round of
plsasure and entertainment sandwiched for every spare
moment fron the business program. The visits to the
factories were most instructive and interesting.
The Rotary Club conducted the members of the press
and other visitors through the L'ull Durham and the
Ligpett & Myers factories and the Watts Hospital on
Wednesday, r.nd on Thursday the Golden Belt Manufac
turing Company and the Durable Durham Hosiery Mills
were visited. The output of these factories was simply
amazing to the averago member of th press. When
told that the tobacco factories were capable of producing
hundreds of thousands of their products daily and the
Goldon Belt Manufacturing Company turned out more
than a million sacks, in which .Bull Durham and Duke'e
Mixture are put up in, and of the large capacity of the
hosiery mills, they had information which the majority
of them had not possessed before. A noteworthy feature
of the visits was the splendid class of employes, parti
cularly the young women, who were immaculately attired
in white and who, in the majority of cases, lacked the
sallow, anemic expressions of mill-hands. Souvenirs were
given by the various places visited, and Durham and her
people have gained favor with the fellows of the press,
and the memories of the cordial hospitality extended
them will linger long in their memories.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
. DIFFERENCES SHOULD BE ARBITRATED,
Arbitration is the best solution of differencss, which
may arise between labor and capital, between neighbor

.unless adjusted, may cause sharp differences and rup
tures. , The side which feels that its contentions are right
TYPHOID FEVER.
Norfolk Ledger Dispatch: "At this season there
are always many cases of typhoid fever in the country.
This year is no exception to the rule. In some places the
number is above the normal, but there has been no epi
demic. Norfolk is having more cases than usual just
now. A largo percentage of them were contracted else
where and brought to this city.
"According to the health authorities, there is no ex
cuse for anyone having typhoid fever, since at is a disease
absolutely preventable by proper care. Despite this, the
various communities continue to have it and will keep on
having it until gradual education, through the newspa
pers and otherwise, reaches all the people.
"The vehicle through which typhoid is most often trans
mitted is milk or water. It is the part of wisdom to be
sure that your milk as pure. It is also well to boil the
drinking water. Some people do this all the year around
just to be on 'the safe side. It Is also imperative to keep
the flies out of the house and to break un their breed
ing places, as far as possible.
"The people of Norfolk should aid the health authori
ties here in their work. There are more cases of fever
here than we should have. It indicates lack of care some
wh?re. The people of Norfolk should aid the health au
thorities hero in their work. There are more cases of
fever here than we should have. It indicates lack of care
somewhere. Let everybody observe the precautions, iter-
