' ."In your editorial of a few days afro condemning government owner ( nhiu of railroads, von used about the siime argument and method which all the opponents pf that system do. comparinsr" the cash earninars of the roads under sovernment control with the income of the former private management, which is very unfair and misleading. When The govern ment took, over the roads! it found " nearly all of them in need cf exten sive repairs the owners of most of " them had been too busv eullinsr mel ons and tmne to pay interest on f watered stock they had issued to spend much monev on the upkeep of their roads Watered stock and counterfeit monev arc twin brothers. Jlr. McAdoo saw- that there was no ;. time" for a hucksterinsr policy, labor and material both of them scarce and dear, had to be -rushed on the ground regardless of cost. One order alone included several hundred locomotives. It was a stupendous task andNper formed in time which in the exinaen- , cy cx&tijif was the 'sole criterion of success and if money was spent like y water ;the' result was flompensatorr.' Xii! aI .know that in a time like this mistakes are inevitable, agencies will ' .:bo employed that are more' or less in- cffioient or dishonest 'and this'ap . plies perhaps "in n: greater degree to : the : ship -bufldine branch and the sneer.of "Hog Island" can be effec tually: discounted, for had we ' con cluded -to go "slow and sure" we might be fighting the Jlun single Jiunded today. "JVhv smote vet not the giant as he reeled" would be ask- - ed.then with even more reason than it was at the downfall of Poland. .Look at the enormous amount of freight and passenger traffic for ..which, the government receives notlr ing. Over four million men taken from their homes to training camps, provided there with food and military jumenai, inree million 01 mem trans ported to Atlantic ports after trnin ,insr. Some of the papers have been gloating oyer the loss the government has sustained in the last two or three months, as usual they are careful to omit any credit for ,th,e Jransporta lion of half a million of returning soldiers -.to. tthcir homes all over the United : States. How long would, votir vaunted private ownership stand .. up under this strain f Why they broke down three or four years ago trying to ship food and munitions to the European allies. They loaded their care and ran them to the sea coast Jwhere thev had no&cilitftw for storage, and thus tied up freight famines ensued over the country. factories .had to stop for want of ,coal and from the far off north came the cry as it had for years. "Give us coal, we are suffering and some are dying for lack of fuel." During the last two years we have heard very . little of such mishandline of freight. Your allusion to the P. & E. was likely designed to enlist local Dreiu dice. While it is a matter of regret to -us here that the road was dis i continued. What would vou sav if 'you heard jthat - the government was granting a bonus to a road in order to accommodate some small commit nity. sav in Texas how eagerly vou would seize it as a text to denounce government paternalism and hold it up as an illustration of what it would do if it owned the railroads. In Great Britain the war has taught ; them the necessity of government ownership. And if ,the government . enn Handle tna railroads under such enormous difficulties is it not rea sonable to suppose that it can do it proportionately better under .normal conditions. L..- ' J. TT. LYMAED, Table Rock. April ao. .. Still Awardjnn Iron Crosses COBLENZ. April 14. Iron crosses arc still being awarded to Germun' soldiers in various purls of, the coun try. Noivspapers in the American occupied areas as well as tliose pub lished in unoccupied Germany every . few days carry notices to the effect thnt word hns been received from the war ministry that a soldier -lias been awarded the iron cross for some act oi Rulluntry during the war. AS TO POLITICAL THAT was a very graceful ?peccli made by JIou. W. O. McAdoo from the platform of his private ear Suu day evening regarding support of the i ietory loan aiid the League of Nations. : ? ;,i k -Mr. McAdoo made a strong appeal for placing those two important issues above party politics, and all fair minded people will supporting in .this stand.: In former Liberty loan drives there has Ven sno partisanship , in evidence, and we anticipate none in the final campaign. As td partisanship regarding the League of Nations, the desirability of sincere and honest criticism,' regardless of party, lias been demonstrated by the, changes effected, following suggestions by both 'Republican 'and Democratic senators. iVhere there has been opposition, solely on nartisan rrrounds. this has been consistently condemned, most people agreeing with Mr. McAdoo that an issue of such transcendent importance, should not be made the football of party politics. But in taking this stand for non-partisanship, in is sues of national importance, we believe Mr. McAdoo and other democratic leaders should not confine their atten tion to members of the opposition Take the .statements of A. Mitchell Palmer, the York Saturdav night. ' Attornej1- General Palmer took occasion to open the political campaign , by declaring America's success in the war due largely to the achievements of the democratic party.' -'.".' '..-A. -: ' "-"" ;V;;- .'"': "The magnificent courage of oinMwo millions on the western front would have led to disaster," he proclaimed, '.'without the laws passed by the democratic administra In -other words we have .a leader1 of the demoratic partv soberlv asserting that not the bravery of our troops, not the leadership of our generals not the superb sup port of the American people support of their eountrv, regardless of everv considera tion, but wnole neartea and country, but partisan legislation was cmerly responsible for the victory which the people of the country are now called upon to celebrate. - , ' 7 , ' A more extreme example pertinent repudiation of the spirit to which All". MfAdoo appealed, coidd not be imagined than this .absurd and un worthy attempt to make political capital out of a triumphf to which republicans like contributed as much as did General Palmer. '' . We have no patience with opposes an essential world' arrangement like the League of Nations, merely because it happens to bp advanced by the leader of one party rather than another.". But we have less patience with political very time it appeals tor non-partisan support, allows one of its leaders, to do what Attemey General Palmer did in .New York Saturday night. By all means let us keep tory Jtoan, from the League of portant let us . keep it trom glori6usly won by the American people, regardless of party. ... In short, if we are to have it hi good faith, from both parties alik or else, mutuallv agree that partisanship is national : importance must be Republicans like fonner - example for one party, noAv. let democrats like Attorney General Palmer set an example for the other. : . , "Three cheers for the income tax law and democratic legislation,!" With that rousing call to arms' did our gal lant xaniis drive the kaiser to to the Rhine, according to our one A. Mitchell Palmer. - Another sign the viar is to tight. . . - A GREAT CEREMONIAL FOR THEIR DEAD BRUSSELS, April 14.--It is plan ned to hold a combined - memorial service for the numerous civilians,' men, women and children, who, In no less dramatic circumstances than Edith Cayell, were shpt by the Ger- mans in Belgium during the occupa tion.
