For the railroads don't n hack to tho status quo ante.
They ti buck with the J'resident of the United States their
liip; lioss.
They hitek witlt the jiowers of Hie Jntorstiite Com
ineivo OoiiimisHion niiiterially inei'eased.
They go hack with the government guaranteeing a
standard return for six months and five and one half per
cent, for two years.
Jfore than that they go hack with the railroad that
makes over six per cent returning that excess profit, half
to a reserve fund and half to a contingent fund for loans to
weaker roads. -
Finally, -and most important, they go hack with the gov
ernment compelling compulsory arhitralion in lahor dis
putes. (Nniiparing the status of American railroads under the!
new railroad hill wit h their status before the war, and none.
can tail hut see the great advance toward government
ownership. Virtually all that has been given up, in iaet
is government operation. When Uncle Sain takes upon
himself the obligation of limiting the profits, rates, and
liabilities of railroads, owning the railroads is largely a
technical detail.
So those who see in this return to private ownershit
the final dissolution of government ownership are blind
to the signs ol the times, and hlind to the essentials of tin
present situation. The time for government ownershit
and government operation combined litis not, come yet. t
will probably not come until the American people take as
much interest in the elticieucy ot pnhlic as or private bnsi
ness.
Ihit. the gradual evolution loward public ownership is
plain. Tin; man who wants' to make his reputation as a
prophet, can play fairly safe by predicting that public
o'wnership of railroads in .Iaet will be established in less
than, Oh, twenty years.
PRESIDENT SHOULD EXPLAIN
nprTK AVERAGE person can't go into .the details of a
A peace treaty very deeply. Unless some one in author
ity speaks up soon 1 he rights and wrongs of the present
oeau iociv win uo entirely a matter ot. partisan emotion.
From all aeeounts President Wilson is himself again.
If so, we hope in the interest of intelligent iudginent. he
will take tlu; people into his confidence and state in words
ot one or two syllables, just why lie can't accept the Lodge
reservation to Article Ten.
A vast majority of right-minded people take little stock
in the political clap-trap on either side. -They hesitate1 to
be leve-President llson would sacrifice his treat v and
league of nations to shallow pride',-1 hey also hesitate: to
ueiieve that all opposition to,, the, President's attitude is
political skullduggery and personal si ito'f illness. Tliev
ai-e strongly inclined. to believe -there is a 'niertus df truth
ful w'onmiodation betwotm these extremes. .
A few words J'roni the While House i'io'w as to the pre
cise situation' would Tiiererore oe. ol: supreme value and importance.-
"We'don't circulate very extensively hi Wash
ington and our influence upon thc'White House would ho
questionable if we did. Put there are some good local
deiiiocrats who are said to have, if not the ear of the Presi
dent at least t he ear of one or two or his advisers. We wish
they would send along the hint.
IIow much a statesman is like Santa Clans! We build
our own roads, pay our own police force; attend to all the
details of making, the country prosperous, and give the
statesman credit. We all know the statesman is a fraud,
yet we whoop it for hhn in November as enthusiastically
as we whoop it up for Santa Clans in December. LW llow'e

SOUTHERN PACIFIC COMPANY
To the Public:
On Monday, March 1, 1920, the Southern Pacific
Company resumed the operation of its lines which since
January 1, 1918, have been under control of the United
States Railroad Administration.
Your patronage is asked on the ground of our giving
you in return the best service at our command, and in
which we all, officers and employees, hope to earn your
commendation.
Your consideration is asked because, with the passage
of the new railroad bill by the Congress determining the
public control over the railroads, we only now have in
sight the end of a long period of great uncertainty in
which it was impossible to plan for the future. In the
period of readjustment following March 1st we rely upon
your patience. . ; ' ' "': "?:;;
ir co-operation is asked in letting us have the benefit
of your suggestions ah in connection with our
service. ' !. - : i; ,, - , .;r;:.',; ,..,,;;.
