The fact is that the United States Supreme Court made it very plain that our Company was not obliged to observe the Labor Boards decisions if it felt that its constitutional and le­ gal rights o f the Company and its employes would be invaded if it complied y ith the decisions o f the Board in the Shop Crafts* and Clerks* cases. * ’ -* • ; ■ • ' •, ‘ / ■ Ours is a,law abiding Company. The management desires to obey every valid law enacted by properly con­ stituted authority! Within that limitation it holds itself responsible to the public for the- safe and economical op­ eration o f its railroad. That responsibility it cannot es- esqape nor can if permit the assumption o f such respom sibility by the Labor, Board. There is a fundamental dif­ ference in the point o f view o f the management and the Labor Board. That .difference,goes to the very essence o f the relationship between this Company and its em­ ployes. Apparently the Labor Board considers itself to i b e <he arbiter o f rules for carrying on what is conceives to be a perpetual struggle between a railroad and its em­ ployes. The purpose o f the management is not to strug­ g le against or t6 triumph over its employes, but to gain their loyalty and co-operaton by a policy o f fair dealing, mutual consultation and just compensation. The decisions o f the Board with which this Com­ pany has not complied ‘were rendered about two years ago, since which time plan o f Employes’ representation has continued to develop and its success, is evidenced by the fact that in elections just held to fill expiring terms o f employes’ representatives more than, eighty per cent o f the employes affected voted in the election o f employe ■representatives to deal with the Company, It is not our purpose to point out all the rnistate-. meats and erroneous Conclusions which appear ip these decisions. The management takes special exception, however, to the statement o f the Labor Board that “ Pennsylvania Railroad has denied to its employes any essential rights to which Congress has declared them en­ titled," There is no warrant whatever for such a statement. - A s you well know, under our system o f Employe Rep­ resentation, the employes and the management are working in the closest harmony. Machinery has been provided whereby all controversial questions may be submitted to a court o f last resort, composed of*an equal number o f representatives o f employes and management There is now no dispute o f any consequence with out employes which we believe will not be amicably adjust­ ed. The only discordant note is that being sounded by the Labor Board. In compliance with the provisions o f the Transportation A ct the desire o f the management is to promote the efficiency o f this Company's service to the public through placing upon the soundest possible basis the relationship between the management and its employes, but it is firmly convinced that this cannot be accomplished by yielding to the demands o f the Labor Board to recognize organizations which are committed to the closed shop, the sympathetic strike and limitation o f output* . * ’ . . . » The management is confident that neither its em- employe* nor a well-informed public will be misled by the*Labor Boards’ unwarranted statements It is unfor­ tunate that this Board, in theTace o f unmistakable facts should through the medium o f its decisions resort to such attacks, instead o f, as it should, commending both the employes and management o f the Pennaylavnia Rail* jroad System for our success in providing for a mutually ^satisfactory means o f preventing discord and promoting industrial peace o f which you are aware from the results that have been achieved and in which you have so cor* diaily co-operated.

HI# Name, (John 1:42), The name which he bore when In­ troduced to ChrlBt was Simon, which means ’‘hearing.” But Jesus gave him a new name—’“Peter," which means ‘Vock,”.

What Peter was at heart could be read on his face. He was free from duplicity. People could understand him. Because of this characteristic they could tell when he was lying, Vet even when people knew he was in error they could be­ lieve in him. He seems to have been Ignorant of the word "diplomacy." %. Prompt, He had the ability to decide and act quickly, as the occa^ sion demanded. This made him a real leader,1 His action at the empty tomb was an example of his promptitude. John outran Peter, but Peter was the prat to enter the tomb. When Corne­ lius sent for him at Joppa he respond­ ed without delay, 3. Courageous. While Peter played the coward sometimes, he was for the most part a brave man. No doubt it was through cowardice that he denied the Lord, but it was his courage that brought him to follow the Lord Into the palace of the high priest. •4. Intense. He felt keenly and Acted with‘ vigor. Whether right or wrong, what he did he did with alt his might. ’ When he preached it was ■with passion. No finer example of burning eloquence can be found than his Pentecostal sermon., IV. peter*# Confession of Christ (Matt, 16:13-18, 21-28), The disciples had been with the Lord for several years., They had heard His mighty words and-seen His mighty works. Various opinions were extant about Him. It was now neces­ sary for them to have a definite con­ ception of Him. The Master-Teacher knew the necessity of having the dis­ ciples get the right conception .of Him­ self. 1, What it Was (r. 16). It involved His Messiahship—“The Christ,’* and deity—“Sort 6t the living God.” ThW is the burning question today. Those who have the right conception of Christ's per® - and mission have no trouble in the realms of science, philos­ ophy or ethics. 2 , Christ’s Commendation (v. 17). Ho pronounced him blessed. Truly he was blessed, for he both possessed and confessed the Christ. The evidence that Peter was blessed was that he Was in spiritual t mch with the Father in Heaven. 8. Peter’s Blessing (v, 18). Christ declared that he should be the founda­ tion stone in His church. Christ is the chief cornerstone on which the church ts built. Christ'# person and Messiah- ship was confessed by Peter, and on this rock Is laid the foundation of apostles and prophets (Bph, 2:20). AH believers are living stones of this house (I Peter 2:5). ' V. Peter's Restoration (John 21:15- 17), Peter grievously sinned In denying the Lord, i,ut he made a confession, shedding bitter tears of penitence over his sin and folly. The Lord tenderly' dealt with His erring disciple and re­ stored him, Jn this restoration He brought to Peter’s mittd the essential qualification for his ministry. Love is the pre-eminent gift for Christ’s serv­ ice. To impress this npou him, he three time* asked the question, "Lovest thou me?" Three classes of people were to be served: (fi) Those be­ ginning the Christian life—“Feed my lambs." '(2) The mature Christians— “Shepherd my sheep.” The shepherd needs to protect and feed the sheep. Love is the one essentia] equipment for this service, (8) The aged Chris­ tians—“Feed my sheep." Love is needed in dealing with the fathers and mothers in Israel. Jt l HOW TO SAVE MONEY WHEN SHOPPING Injurlst, Mather wink at small injuries than to be too forward to Avenge them.

A shape that is becoming for a slen­ der figure is not desirable for a stout 1 one* ■ ■ ; If the hat Is lo be wore with some particular dress or suit, be sure to ' have that garment on. Otherwise it is almost impossible to get just the , effect one desires. Never buy a hat merely because it looks new or Interesting in the shop.
