BA8I8 Of id SOLI i
Washington, D. C., Feb. 18.—The
threatened tie-up of fifty eastern
railroads by the proposed strike of
firemen was the basis of a resolu-
tion for government ownership of
those railroad pronerties, introduced
in the house by Representative Ber-
ger of Wisconsin, socialist. Mr.
Berger's resolution proposed that in
case of a strike and tie-up of the
railway system for more than a
we<*k, the president of the I'nlted
States should be empowered to seiie
the railways, with all their ter
minals, belt lines, lands, coal mines,
workshops and other properties, on
the ground of public emergency and
the right of eminent domain, and to
manage and operate them through
the postoffice department until con-
gress should create a department of
railways.
The resolution proposed that the
government operate the properties
on a work day of eight hours and
pay a "fair rate of wages."
It would direct the secretary of
csmmerce and labor to furnish con-
gress an estimate of the actual phy-
sical valuation of the railroads,
their connections and all their prop-
erties, as the basis of government
compensation to the roads, and
would instruct the secretary of the
treasury to submit to congress a
comprehensive plan for financing
the entire transaction ot issuing
United States bonds at the lowest
practical rate sf Lsterest.
