One of those tales which appeal to the quality in man and
woman that finds stories of human contest with the wild
forces of nature so enthralling. Possessing a high degree of lit-
epry merit it is being hailed as the modem classic of its type.
Zane Grey says:
“‘The Voice of the Pack’ is dean. fine, raw, bold, primitive; and
has a wonderfully haunting quality in the repeated wolf-note."
The New York Times says:
“The Voice of the Pack’contains an intimate and detailed knowl-
edge of the Oregon woods that makes the novel fascinating. The
etory in the main is a woodman idyl, rich in poetic fancy and
throbbing with a reverent love for a nature which is unspeakably
wonderful both in its majesty and in its all-pervading hospitality."
The Chicago Daily News says:
"Taken all around, The Voice of the Pack* is the best of the
stories about wild life that has come out in many, many moons.**

The address of Daniel Willard
on the subjeet of relations be-
tween employers and employes in
railroad operation, has attracted
a good deal of comment in Wash-
ington. When war darkened the
country's horizon, Mr. Willard
was one of the first railroad pre-
sidents summoned to Washing-
ton, and his great services to his
country have made of him a char-
acter whose judgment and opin-
ions carry unusual weight. In

“All the world knows that this
is the Day of Petroleum, but what
is the time o’ day! Does the
cluck mark forenoon high noon,
or afternoon!”
Thus, an engineering firm ex-
presses its crypt ie forebodings
concerning petroleum. Within a1
few years coal and wood as fuel
have found a powerful competi-
for in the oil fields. Dur oil-

enough the answers are far from1
satisfying.
The engineering report refer-
red to above says that after every .
effort has been exhausted to se-
cure petroleum, that the results
are that there is scarcely more
than enough to relieve the cur-
rent stringency. “What remains
underground,’’ continues the re-
port, is “not a reserve, but in
defiance of the wildest extrava-
gance of ffort to get it out.”
The truth of this statement can
hardly be questioned, but in this
day of regulating public utilities,
and safeguarding the public in-
terests against unfair methods in
distribution, prices, and the like,
it reads queer that a statement
with all the earmarks of having
been prepared by oil producers,
should declare that the oil con-
cerns have actually started to se-
lect their customers, for we are
told in the report that “one at
least, of the great refinery in-
terests which some months back,
withdrew gas oil from the mar-
ket, has now arranged to discon-
tinue the sale of fuel oil, entire-
ly”
in view of this admission it
will be interesting to follow the
processes of organizations like
the Federal Trade Commission,
which is interesting itself very
vigorously in the coal situation.
For coal, like oil, is fuel; and
any coal mining district that
would refuse to supply a speci-
fied industry would soon be cal-
led to account. The great oil in-
terests have apparently made
their own methods for handling

by the railroad Labor Board, Mr.
Willard reminds us that it is ap-
pointed by the President and
confirmed by the Senate, just as
are the members of the United
States Supreme Court. Three of
the members are nominated by
the railroad companies, three by
the railway employes, and three
by the President himself as re-
presenting in a larger way the
public interest.
The Transportation Act says
that it shall be the duty of the
Board to establish rates of pay
and standards of working condi-
tions which in the opinion of the
Board are just and reasonable,
and in determining the justness
and reasonableness of such rates
the Board shall take into consi-
deration among other things; the
scale of wages paid for similar
kinds of work in other indus-
tries; the relation between wages
and the cost of living; the ha-
zards of the employment; the
training and skill required; the
degree of responsibility; the
character and regularity of the
employment; and inequalities of
increases in wages or of treat-
ment, the result of previous wage
orders or adjustments.
Mr. Willard says: “It may
fairly be said that Congress by
this Act has made a preferred
class of the railway workers, be-
cause so far as I know this is
the first time that Congress has
ever said that any particular
class of the people should be giv-
en at all times and under all
circumstances just and reason-
able wages and just and reason-
able working conditions.”
Of course, it may be said that
Congress did not do this primari-
ly in the interest of the workers,
nor would Congress have been
justified in doing so. Congress
acted only as it had a right to
act in the interests of the Na-
tion as a whole. Congress act-
ed with a full realization of the
importance of an uninterrupted
transportation system in a coun-
try such as ours, but being un-
willing to deprive the workers of
their right to strike, it sought
ito provide machinery which
would make it unnecessary under
iany circumstances for the men to
stop work in order to obtain just
land reasonable treatment. The
' progress of events appears to in-
dicate that as this labor law
| comes to be better understood by
the railway workers as a whole
they will realize that they have
I indeed been made a preferred
class, and Willard adds in expres-
sing the belief “that we will be
free from railway strikes in the
I future; not, however, because the
men have been forbidden to
strike, for I repeat, there is
nothing in the law which limits
The right of the railway workers
to strike if they want to do so,
but simply because the law pro-
vides a way by which they can
obtain without striking every-
thing that they could reasonable
expect to obtain even if they did
strike.”
In the only award so far an-
nounced by the Labor Board it
was stated that the effect of the
higher wages then allowed would
mean an aggregate increase in
wages to all of the railway work-
ers of approximately $600,000,000
per yer.
