Sims, retired, is the latest person ! ! of prominence to bombard the navy department with a volley Hi of criticism. He told the president's air board this week ', that the navy department was now and had been for years I ', controlled by a group of incompetent time-servers and un- I i trained officers and that it had no definite policy regarding J ! the bureau of aeronautics. The present low morale of the ! ! navy, he said, was due to the lack of confidence in the lead; . ' ers, and he explained the apparent indifference of the ! American people to all of the conditions described by a state I ! ment to the effect that there was no war to arouse their in J J terest.' J J ' On the same day that news dispatches carried Sims' ; ; statement to the reading public there was also chronicled the J declaration of Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois, J ; that the government at Washington was hopelessly out of ; date and decaying with bureaucracy, enmeshed helplessly in I I its own red tape. He added that the growing burden of tax J ' ation stimulated the American people In awakening to the ! fact that our democratic form of government is a failure at '. ', the present time. I ! ' Criticism of the government departments from such ; men as Sims and Lowden, utterly untainted by political bias J ; or personal grievances, and adding as it does to an already ; ; lafge volume of accusations from other persons prominent jj in' official and civil life, is bound to bring beneficial results iooner or later. A general demand from the people at large 'leave the initiative to the politicians) will force action of Some sort. ,They cannot reach the bureaucrats directly, of "course, bat they have confidence in the calm, level-headed irian in the White House and It is to him that they will na turally look for administrative betterment. FAVOR GRANTING COMPETITION. ... Oregon communities which are served by the Southern Pacific railroad have, through certain of their residents, ex- - pressed their appreciation of that service at the Interstate Commerce Commission hearing in Portland the past two ' weeks, but almost without exception they have at the same . ' time spoken out in favor of granting the privilege of compe ;."tttion to the Oregon Trunk line. A striking illustration of "-this attitude against the proposed monopoly of traffic by the Southern Pacific is afforded in the statements made at the hearing Wednesday by R. A. Booth, one of Eugene's lending 1 citizens and the foremost lumber operator of Lane county. . Mr. Booth acknowledged a friendly feeling toward the South Z em Pacific, but he said that road was wrong in its attempt Z o bar the Oregon Trunk from the Klamath basin and that Z the development of central and southwestern Oregon would progress faster with two railroads than with only one. Mr. ; Booth unquestionably represents the predominant sentiment of the City of Eugene, and the sentiment of that city is note- 2 worthy at this particular time because it is floating a heavy amount of bonds to buy a terminal site for the Southern Pa- cific, after inducing the road to abandon previous plans for Z ft terminal at Springfield. Eugene's attitude is the same as Z Ihat of other cities and localities which will be directly affect j ed by the outcome of the railroad duel. It is naturally thank , ful for such benefits as the Southern Pacific service has con- ferred, but it has the American dislike of monopoly and it is not backward about saying so. I o . I , "Take your tip with thanks" was the caption on anTdP Z torial in tho New York Telegram of recent date, r.nd the ' (Sommcnt which followed dealt with the punishment of a ruf ; fianly taxi cab driver who on being handed a ten cent tip for vtr twenty cent ride, vilely abused his "fare," and threw a "Handful of pennies in his fuce. Bystanders caused his arrest. Magistrate George W. Simpson in West Side Court wisely ruled "that bad manners and ungraciousness on the part of , taxi cab drivers constitute disorderly conduct, meriting pun ! ishment at the hands of the law." And he follows ifp the I judicial utterance by fining the driver f 23 and sending him t r 11 mi ... . . . . to junior mree aays. ine editorial commended Magistrate ; Simpson and praised the citizens who had brought the dc- ; served rebuke and punishment on ono who profited from the ; rendering of a public servico but who had proved unfit for ; his job. 'Rudeness and impudence deserve prompt rebuke," . was one telling, summarizing sentence and that was what the - Magistrate believed. His injunction : "Take your tip politely j and be thankful" applies not alone to taxi drivers but to mil- , lions of men and women engaged in other employments j which look to the public to pay a share of the wage. The American public hns brnm called the most jrullible in the world.
