They Must Help Themselves
(Wall Street Journal.)
All the money in the savings
ba oka will not provide for tbe un
employed.
If it were withdrawn
and given them today, its with
drawal would cause more unem
ployment in other direction*.
There is no sudden cure. •There is
no cure whatever which does not
involve co-operation by the pa
tient. He must change his habits.I
He must quit lying to himself
about his standard of living.
He|
must quit lying to his employer
about his capabilities.
He must
quit lyiDg about tbe work he turns
■ut. Our public department* must
quit encouraging him to lie.
To
tell the unemployed they can be
helped by splitting the day's work
oetween two applicants for em
ployment is a cruel jest on con
sumer and producer alike.
No Income Guaranteed
Since September I, 1920, no rail
road could receive what it did
not earn.
Since that time the
railroads have failed to earn
a 6-per-cent return by 1518,000,-
000 and have lost that sum for
ever.
A decrease in operating expenses
sufficient to make possible a gen
eral reduction in rates can be se
cured only by further substantial
reductions in railroad operating
expenses—-including the altoliliou
of war-time rules and working coa
litions so that the amount of work
per day of each railroad employe
will be something near what it was
before the war.
