Great Northern Pays Tribute

to Loyal Employes. Justice to the rank and file of earnest and loyal workers in railroad serv- ice calls for the correction of an impression created in some quarters by radical leaders that the employes are seeking to destroy the railroads by inefficient and disloyal service. It is true that a comparatively small number of union lead­ ers are seeking to cause a breakdown of the railroads under private operation with a view to bringing about Government ownership. We believe that there remains today among the great majority of railroad workers the same fine sense of loyalty and honor towards the companies that has always characterized their service. That this is particularly true of the Great Northern is evidenced by the following resolution unanimously adopted at a meeting of the Great Northern Veterans' Association on June 22, 1923:

WHEREAS, from various sources it has been learned that the financial affairs of the railroads in the Northwest are insufficient to sustain a satisfac­ tory financial condition; that much of the difficulty is due to high operatin~ costs on account, among other things, of the present high prices of fud and other supplies, and the rapid increase of late years in taxation, and WHEREAS, it is most important to the employe to Irnow that His wages will be fair, That he will be promptly and properly paid, when due, for services ren­ dered, That he is secure in his employment, That his conditions of employment are good, all of which depends upon the financial stability of the railroad, and WHEREAS, in some Quarters there is propaganda which tends toward the Government ownership of railroads to secure which the railroad employes are exhorted to assist in bringing about that result by hampering the manage­ ment through failure to give a full day's work: for a full day s pay, and WHEREAS, we believe it would be dishonoraBle and also destructive to the interests of the employe for him to adopt a policy of not giving a full and efficient day's work: for a full day's pay. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that we condemn all prop­ aganda designed to bring about any such policy as being dishonor­ able and destructive and that we trust and believe the Great North­ ern employes will not permit themselves to be led into such an un­ worthy and futile course. FURTHER RESOLVED, that for ourselves we believe it is right and also clearly in our interest to support the management in its efforts to provide adequate and prompt service to the public and we pledge ourselves to do our full part in promoting cordial under­ standing and cooperative spirit in all matters of mutual interest be­ tween the Company and its employes.

The spirit of enthusiastic loyalty shown by these Veterans of 25 years or more of service with the Great Northern i the spirit that prevails among its 30,000 employes.

The Ames aggregation is a well-balanced machine, with all the men in the backfield to be regarded as danger­ ous scoring possibilities_ Coach Williams of Ames has de ­ veloped a smoothly running passing game which he uses as a desperate offense attack or a reliable defensl. With the two Behm brothers in the backfield. both of whom are adept at the passing and receiving end of the game, and Captain Young at left end, he has three men who can be relied upon to present a dan~erous aerial game, one which Minnesota will have to w;,tch carefully. Coday, veteran end, who has been going strong in practice and in the Simpson game, has shown real ability in breaking up plays starting around his end. The outstanding figure in the line is Trice, colored star, whose work at right tackle has been very good. He is backed up by three other letter men who have been going steadily, so that the line is one in which no weak spots have yet been found. Walter Eckersall of Chicago watched the Gophers in scrimmage last Tuesday, and expressed himself as being very favorably impressed by Coach Spaulding's squad.

The field of medicine gives us the best examples of great progress. Scores of diseases long held incurable have lately faded almost completely from the earth, as witness the examples of typhoid fever and smallpox. More recently has been the discovery of the group of substances known as vitamines, and their relation to the so-called deficiency diseases. The vitamines are a class of substances of undeter­ mined chemical nature, which prevent certain specific di ea es. Unlike the toxins which are the causes of most of the common diseases, the vitamines by their absence permit the development of the diseased condition. In other words they ' are disease-preventers, hence the term "deficiency diseases". Perhaps the best known of these deficiency diseases is rickets. This disease has been known for ages, but it is only within the last few year that it is known to have been caused by lack of the food substance known as anti-ricketic vitamine. The child whose food is lacking in this substance is afflicted with weakness of the bony skeleton resulting in bowlegs, pigeon-breast and other well known deformities, In like manner food deficient in another substance produces symptoms of neuritis, hence its name of "anti­ neuritic vitamine". The symptoms of this disease include stupidity, loss of appetite and inability to stand or walk, due to loss of balancing power. This vitamine has been the subject of a research problem recently completed in the department of biochemistry at University Farm by Arthur J. Souba, and published in the American Journal of Physiology, March, 1923. Mr. Souba studied some of the indirect results of this form of malnutrition. He has proven that it causes a failure in the development of certain of the vital internal organs, and in some cases the mature organs have act­ PROGRESS BEING MADE ON ually degenerated.

MINNESOTA WINS AGAIN- HASKELL D FATED 13 to 12 Our Weekly Sport Review by Elbridge Bragdon '26 OMI G through strong in the sec­ ond period, the Gopher football team Q snatched their second victory of the year from gaping jaws of defeat, triumph­ ing over the Haskell Indians by the narrow margin of a 13-12 victory. This indicates just about the respective ability of the two teams in the battle which raged on N orth­ rap Field last Saturday. Captain Levi of Haskell and Captain Martineau were the outstanding stars of the game. At the start of the second half Levi received the ball on the kick-off and carried it for eighty-five yards through th;: entire Minnesota team for a touchdown. He is a triple threat man, carrying the ball, passing, and kicking in a spectacular man­ ner, and is regarded by football critics as a second Jim Thorpe of the gridiron world, and may develop into just such a pastmas­ ter of the game as Thorpe has shown him­ self to be in the past ten years. "Marty" played the entire game with his injured hand in a cast, but this seemed in no manner to handicap the 'versatile star's playing. His 41-yard run for the second tally clearly indicated the scope of his abil­ ity.

All the work that you do, all the work that everybody does, consists in mov­ ing from point to point, yourself and in moving objects from one point to an­ other. This is all that a railroad does. You know that it costs you something to do your own work. D o not forget that it costs the railroad immeasurably more to do its work, which is also your work, and without which the greater part of your labor and expense would be lost. In traveling on a completely equipped train with dining, parlor and sleeping car service, the facilities are the same as in high class hotels. The cost to the traveler is immensely less. Every item in the provision for both passenger and freight service costa more than it did. You travel over a mile of railroad track in a minute or two. This mile of track, exclusive of the grade and right of way, which cost $15,000 in 1913 now costs $25,000. Here is a comparative list of the cost of Great Northern equipment ten years ago wi th the cost of similar equipment now: Cost in Cost in 1913 1923 Mountain Type Engines $24,000 $54,000 Sleeping Cars 16,000 36,000 Dining Cars 14,000 31 ,500 Day Coaches 9,000 20,250 Refrigerator Cars 1,200 2,700 Ore Cars 800 1,800 Box Cars 800 1,800 Flat Cars 650 1,462 Taxes have increased in these same ten years over 100 per cent. This makes a formidable addition to the operating expense of every railroad. But at the same time rai lroad freight and passenger rates have increased only about 40 per cent. For everything we have, food, shelter, clothing, and transportation, we must pay. Transportation has made thi., country what it is, and if it is impaired the whole country suffers disaster. It is worth thinking about as a matter of self interest as well as a matter of justice that the service is being rendered, under cost conditions most unfavorable to the carrier and growing yearly more difficult, at a price to the public so little over that of ten years ago. Take these facts into consideration whenever you think or talk about railroad rates. LOUIS W. HILL, Talk No.6 Chairman of the Board
