Technically the strike of railroad workers eunounced to begla at the end of thta month would be for restoration of the wage rates which were la effect prior to July 1 iMt. Actually. It appears, the purine of the threat 1, to cause the transportation comi.anles to abandon their plans for a further reduction x his procedure haa long been familiar to the public' J a the present Instance, however, there looms a factor, nerer before Introduced In preclselv the ,an, Way' tbat unquestionably will beccrne dominant In rysunizing sentiment which In the long run wi'l prove decisive. The saving to the carriers tlirougii rciu.ln.tr ages is to be passed on to the people bv a sli.-n- uf freight and passenger rates, provided the Interstate commerce commission gives its consent to changes of hedule.. If it refuses to approve rate reductionhich are commonly held Indispensable to a revival of eeneral business and a restoration of prosperitv. strike orders probably would be recalled, since there as convincing evidence that the anion leaders would not have authoriied a walk-out to recover lost wages if a further reduction had not been proposed If It approves, the strike will be against the general pubhe, rather than a contest between the unions and the corporations. It will appear to most people as an indefensible obstruction to efforts designed to promote 'he general welfare through stimulating business and lelievins the unemployment situation. Obviously there is here a call for intelligent and dispassionate consideration by all those who are directly concerned in tbe wage controversy and for acttion in accordance with the wise conclusions which uch consideration compels. The people also will 'hink and decide patriotically, for the threatened situation is a summons to unselfish devotion to country.
off very greatly in the last several years, due to increasing costs of oi't-ratlng mines without a corresponding enhancement cf value of the metal. Hut the abnormal conditions will be gradually eliminated by economic proceesee. W'heu foreign countries which have been virtually stripped of gold are able to attract seme of our supply to their ci(Ttrs a profitable market for new gold undoubtedly will be found. HubstdUhiK the product tou of that wblch 1s net required would uot b good business. Though the bouse has p.ieeed n gold subsidy bill, it Is to be hopl tbe seuste will act un-favorably.
FOR A SHORTER SERIES. Commissioner Lundi seems to be ou firm ground In recommending tbat the- next soiles for the huaeliall world cliampiou.-ihlp consist of seven Instead of uine games as the maximum. He is concerned with preserving the lively Interests of th general public In the national xanie, the factor upon which 1t depends for Its support, and there Is no doubt that tbe series this year was too long drawn out for all but a few of the uioHt enthusiastic fans. What Is wanted as a Piling sequel to the regular playing season Is a brief, snappy series of contests where the true spirit of epcrt is emphasized and less stress Is placed on the financial winnings of the players. Much sentiment has been voiced against the big monetary rewards made possible by the high prices charged for admission and reserved seats When there is a clash between the financial Interest of owners and players and the public interest there should be no doubt as to which should give way. A shorter world series neit time and lower prices, with the soft pedal on tbe cash register there Is the way to strengthen the interest of the followers of professional baseball and keep tbe game on the plane where it belongs.

m NEED FOR MORE GOLDThe only Justification for a governmental subsidy to any industry i3 that the country stands greatly in need of the products or sen-vices of that industry and that private enterprise unaided la unable to supply the want. It is impossible to eustaln a claim that the United States is In need of more gold at this time, its reserve being the greatest in its history and far more than its requirements for monetary purposes. Production of gold throughout the world has fallen
FRIENDS IN CONFERENCE. Announcement that, the enlargtug of the Hritlsh delegation to the Washington armament conference t include six members, so as to make possible the presentation of three of the dominions, will caus po change in the size cf our own country's delegation which constitutes Its greatest strength. Each nation, it is said, j-hall feel free to send as few or riany delegates as it desires, kindly keeping In mind President Harding's wish that the conference sbal! not become so large as to be unwieldly. It is ltrue (that tjhe United States government made first announcement of its delegation of four members, but it had no intention of setting a numerical precedent. Our delegation is regarded a-s fully tppresentative. and as capable of presenting the American attitude on reduction of armaments and on the far eastern questions as if it were twice, the size.
tThe Hritlsh had not expected to send more than four
delegates until the desirability of representation for Australia. New 7tvfeland end Canada was treajized.
jThe far eastern questions, rather than armament re
duction, bold for them the chief interest. Indeed, their interests in the Pacific come nearer to those cf the United States than most nations. There is every indication that the coming conference will possess exactly the character desired by President Harding; that It will be a gathering for ' friendly conversations'" in which a sincere effcrt will
be made to gain each other's point of view and the j peculiar problems and circumstances of each nation j will receive sympathetic consideration. Many diffl- !
culties undoubtedly will be encountered, but the encouraging thing 13 the spirit that is being shown by the nations invited to what may prove to be the most important international meeting in the world's history.
