PEKING, Nov. 8. — Miss Chiang.
the daughter of General Chiang Tbo
Ping, a member of the Chinese general
staff, was dangerously injured in an
aeroplane accident at the first public
xehibition of the army aviation corps
recently held at Nanyuan near Pek- i
ing. She made the flight with Pilot
Yao, one of the best aeronauts in the
Chinese army. Adverse air currents
interfered with the manipulation of
the machine, which dropped from a
height of several hundred feet within
sight of thousands of spectators who
attended the exhibition. The pilot
wore a heavy safety helmet, and es
caped with slight injuries, but Miss
Chiang wore no helmet and sustained
concussion of the brain.

BITTER BATTLE
SANTA FE, N. M„ Nov. 8. — After'
a hard fought campaign, featured fre-1
quently by bitter personalities. New
Mexico elected its second set of state
officials, this time for two year terms.
National issues were largely the basis
of campaign arguments, although
pledges on the liquor question, fore
runners of a prohibition campaign,
have been boasted by many candi
dates.
New Mexico for the first time re
ceived aid from the national organiza
tions of major parties, the senatorial
results being the lure.
Iaist — Diamond brooch, sunflower
shape, with diamond in center. Liberal

IMPORTANT CASE
BEFORE IRE I
t
\
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. — For the *
first time, in the oil tank car cases l
before the supreme court, questions
of the duty of railroads to provide
and furnish shippers with freight cars |,
of special type, and authority of the f
Interstate Commerce Commission to -
require such special service, were
raised.
The cases were divided against the
government, and the Commission in
the lower courts, which held the com
mission was not clothed with power
to order such special equipment. The
Pennsylvania railroad, however, got
an injunction to prevent enforcement
of a commission order directing it to
furnish oil tank cars, upon reasonable
demand, to independent shippers of
Pennsylvania.
Upon appeal to the supreme court
the department of justice and Inter
state Commerce Commission contend
ed it was the legal duty of common i
carriers, and one enforceable by the
commission and not by suit in the
courts, to "provide and furnish upon
aresonahle request, such cars as are
reasonably necessary for handling of
normal traffic." The railroad argued
that congress had not given the com
mission such authority, and it could
not be implied. Construction of the
Interstate Commerce Act and Hepburn
amendment of 1906 were involved.
The department of justice stated that
the rases “are among the most im
portant dealing with the Interstate
Commerce act which have arisen in
recent years," and asserted that the
power claimed by the commission was
needed to prevent railroads from dis
criminating between shippers.

WELFARE WORK
MOTE IF
I
PORTLAND. Ore., Nov. !t. — Co
operation not only between employer
and employee, but also between em
ployers themselves is one of the great
factors of success in modern logging
business of the Northwest, in tin* view
of D. S. Painter, of McCloud, Cal., who
addressed the delegates to the Pacific
Logging Congress on "Co-operation of
Employer and Employe."
"There can lie no doubt at all in the
minds of any of you," said Mr. Painter,
in part, "who have the control or
handling of any class of labor, that
to obtain efficient results there must
be cooperation, at least, between
yourselves, the company you represent
and the men in your employ. There
Is great need for the employer and
employee to work together, and the
present time is particularly appropri
ate for cooperative effort.
"In this day of keen competition
and modern improvements in all kinds
of machinery, the operator must got
all lie can from the labor he employs.
The question is 'how to get the best
results, and how his labor must be
handled to get these results.' The
answer is 'welfare work.’ Within the
meaning of these two words, wonders
can be accomplished. The constantly
Increasing disposition on the part of
the employer to regard the interest of
employees with the degree of concern
that attaches to his own affairs, is
hopeful.”
