Comment

fiEORGE CANNON, agricultural
VJ agent of the Great Northern,
spesklng In southern Oregon on the
subject of Railroad Week, made thla
tremendously interesting statement:
"The railroads of the United Btate
haul a ton of freight a distance ot
a mile for approximately one cent.
"The government of the United
States pays to the competitors ot
the railroads the boats, the busses
and trucks and the airships subsi
dies In various forms amounting to
about nine-tenths of one cent per
ton-mile."
N other words, the government

kinds such aa rivers and harbor lm

equal to ALL the railroads get lor
HAULING FREIGHT.
Rather surprising, Isn't It?
npHE government, of course, paid
A huge subsidies to the railroads
back In the days when they were
getting started. Some of these-aub si
dles were In cash. Othera, far larger
In volume, were in the form of land
grants.
The government, in those days, had
vast holdings of public land which
were worthless without transporta
tion, and It seemed like good busi
ness to go into partnership with tne
railroads In developing this land,
giving them a part of It In return
for bringing transportation to all or
It.
It WAS good business. No one liv
ing In the West will undertake to
deny that. Without the railroads.
the West would still be a wilder
ness.
WERE long in thla country on
helping new Industrie to get
started and then soaking them hard
after they get going.
We helped the railroad In every
way we could think of when they
were building their first lines, ana
now we sosk them in about every
way we can think of. They pay a
million dollars a day in taxes, ana
In addition we load them down with
all sorts of regulation.
We've done the same thing with
moat of our new indvistrles, and
will probably do It in the case of the
boat lines, the highway carriers and
the air lines. After they get to going
good, we'll probably treat them about
as we have the railroads.
THE politicians are responsible for
that. When an Industry Is new
and everybody Is expecting a lot from
It, It's popular to help It alongi But
when it gets well established ana
BIG, it becomes popular to ATTACK
The business of the politicians i
to do whatever Is at the moment
popular.
-..
QTILL, helping em when they're
fcJ young and weak and soaking 'em
when they get older and stronger
isn't such a bad way, when you come
right down to it, and it's exceedingly
human.
It makes for growth and develop
ment, which Is what we have to have
If progress Is to continue.
BUT It does seem a little odd. and
not quite right, that the public
should pay in subsidies to the com
petitors of the rsilroads nearly aa
much as the railroads charge tor
hauling freight. It runs the total bill
for doing our hauling up pretty
high.

more than two hours, to return to
morrow. Senator Fletcher (Fla.) ad
monished: "Let's have facts Mr. Mitchell, not
Inferences and mere Indications."
Mitchell had said Just previously
he had "never charged graft directly.
I have never seen any money passed,
but millions In effect have been
given away through these subsidies
and there Is indication of corrup
tion." Earlier, with Secretary Roper lis
tening closely, his Missouri foe had
repeated charges of maladministra
tion in the commerce department.
Specific Cases Asked
Time and again senators asked him
to be specific and not go over evi
dence which la already before con
gress from previous Inquiries.
He said he "knew the shipping
bonrd was a cesspool of corruption"
before he came to Washington, and
had laid his complaints before the
president.
The contract entered into by Roper
last March for laying up the Levia
than, he insisted presented to inter
ests hended by P. A. S. Franklin,
Kermit Roosevelt and Vincent Astor
f 1.720.000 as "an unearned part" of
a subsidy providing for penalties for
non-operntton of the Leviathan.
Some of his attack drew sharp
defense from Senators FlPtchcr (D.,
Fla.) and White (R., Me.) These
FPtiatora uphr.d Admiral It. I. Cone
of the shipping board, a subject of
Mitchell's criticism.
Committee member, trying to pin
the wit-nesa down to specific In
stances of "favoritism and "graft"
tn the commerce department, drew
from him a statement he had only
charged the "appearance of corrup
tion." Hint Corruption.
"These records are full of appear
ances of corruption." he said, refer
ring to the black air and ocean
mall inquiry reports and his own
memoranda.
He told of a contract for operation
of an American West African line
under which the operators, the Bar
ber interests, received a loan and
mall pay amounting to 9414.000, ran
the three ships three or four years,
turning them back to the govern
ment and got the "full amount" for
them.
"Those facts were developed by the
Black committee," observed Chair
man Copeland.
"Yes. but why doesn't Roper do
something about it?" Mitchell asked,
adding such contracts should be re
ferred to tlie department of Justice
for- cancellation.
"You don't charge this administra
tion with favoritism In connection
with this contract do you?" asked
Senator Vandenbers (R.. Mich )
"No. I do not."
Senator White ohscrvpd congress
had "directed" the West African
transaction.
The testimony included charges
that the International mercantile ma
rine Interests had received a "scal
ing down" of .V3B0.OOO in their gov
ernment contract to operate the
leviathan when they took over the
United States line m 1931.
McN;tr Filter Query.
Senator McNary (R.. Ore.) Inquired
whether Mitchell had "tapped any
new sources" of information or If he
wss merely going over evidence in
prior congressional inquiries.
"Ir e all In rhe reports, but noth
ing has been done about it," Mitchell
replied.
"I've been trying to get Sxretary
Roer to recapture several million
dollars and see whether any crime j
nave ocen committed as in the Tea
pot Pome scandal "
While score m the large caucus
room listened Intently, he added it
v;u the secretary's duty to lay the
evidence befcre the attorney general.
In pres conference, meanwhile.
President Roosevelt said he had ap
proved the arrangement for retire
ment of the Leviathan because It was
silly to require the operating com
pany to take a loss If It agreed to
app'.v the amount of that lovs to
construction of new uhlp. Such a i
construct ion stipulation was tn the
retirement agreemrrt j
RMteelt t nluformcd j
Mr. Roo&eveit Mid H was not a
quainted with the loan to the Levia
than operators.
In response to Inquiries, he said
there were no reasons for Mitchell's
dismissal other than those made pub
lic, dealing with Inefficiency.
In the hearing. Senators Bachman,
(D.. Tenn.) , and Vandenberg, ( R
Mich.), advised Mitchell In his tes
timony to stay outside the record
with which all senators were famil
iar. The Missouri an at the start said
Roper had balked his efforts to "un
cover waste and Inefficiency" In the
department.
Pounding his clenched hand on the
table, he Insisted his chief had
"whitewashed" deeds by "hardboilcd
republican" officials under him.
"Stop rounding Table"
"Stop pounding the table," Mc
Nary admonished the witness, end a
little later he warned him to "get
into your charges" of "graft" and
"Improper favoritism" that brought
the lnqutry.
Mitchell then swung Into a broad
charge that an advisory shipping
committee named by Roper and head
ed by H. H. Helmann. of Michigan,
had received "millions" from the gov
ernment in "graft" through interest
tn subsidies.
Seretary Roper sat.sllently by wait
ing to defend himself later. He had
been accused, in letters from Mitch-,
ell to the president, of "surrender to 1
the predatory interests that had fat
tened in the past" on mall contracts
under the ship subsidy policy.
In swearing, Chairman Copeland ,
of the committee gave as the reason '
for the hearing that "the committee
should be fully Informed if there are !
irregularltlea or defects In the de
partment." 1
Klucflsh Spectator
Among the spectators, some of
whom were on hand ready to be sure
to get one of the 300 seats, was Sen
ator Long. (D.. La.). Not a member
of the committee, he raid he was
only "an Innocent spectator.'
Mitchell first read a brief mem
orandum, saying he would merely
"touch the high spots" of his charg
es. Some senators were ready to ask
an extensive Inquiry, If "stibstance"
for Mitchell's charges were shown.
Leaders of both parties were aware
of the possible significance of the sit
uation for the 1936 campaign.
One notes sadly the ptsslng of an
other member of the old guard. The
late Arthur Ruhl brought to the
service of Journalism the type or
mind more often devoted to scholarly
or scientific research. Not that his
detachment detracted from the color
or Interest of his writing, for he
was one of the best reportera, but
he was always cool and never ap
peared In his own pictures.
Ruhl was more concerned with the
facts of a case than his own rela
tion to It. but he brought to bear
a sympathetic understanding that
enabled him to get Inside and be
hind them. On the subject he dealt
became an authorltv. I don't believe
thst ever In his life did he go oft ;

merce Is really no different from
selling any other commodity or serv
ice. The consumer reacta favorably
If the Information Is such that his
own judgment tells him the invest
ment Is worth while.
"If the information la unfavorable,
then his decision is adverse." Ac
cording to the publicity committee,
what local citizens know about the
program of the chamber of commerce,
and the opinion they hold of the or
ganization, depends upon the ability
of the chamber to furnish the right
sort of information In a manner that
carries conviction.
The publicity committee made the
following statement this morning:
"Everyone Is entitled to know what
the Chamber of Commerce Is doing
and publicity of the right type
is the only medium at the command
of the organisation to get over the
Information. Thanks to the co-operation
of the local newspapers and
radio station, we have been able to
obtain a full measure of publicity
designed for local consumption. The
only difficulty in the chamber's pub
licity work, and this applies to all
similar organizations In smaller com
munities. Is to know where to start
and when to end with the limited
funds available."
During the past year the publicity
committee has been greatly assisted
by the Cascade-Wonderland associa
tion and as a result Jackson county
has received publicity which other
wise might- not hve been It portion.
As an example of this the current
issue of 'MotorLa nd ." publ Ished In
San Francisco, Cal., contains a story
of this section and a picture of fish
ermen in the Rogue river. This Is but
one example of many similar stories
that have been published through the
co-operation of the local chamber and
the travel organizations.
Special events such as the recent
trapshoot.. the midwinter golf tour
nament and othera have been capltal-
tallr-d to the fullest extent from a
publicity standpoint. The chamber
has been very careful in its publicclty
to guard Itself against the possibility
of encourf aging people to come to
Jackson county unless they have suf
ficient funds to either make an in
vestment in some business or to carry
themselves along until such time as
they find gainful employment.
The Chamber of Commerce also
guards Itself in order that publtcilty
given out shall be of real news value,
rather than of worthless notoriety.
The number of Inquiries now being
received by the locsl organization
would indicate that the outside pub
licity la bringing results, as t hese
Inquiries today are far greater than
the number being received a year ago.
In Its publicity work the Chamber
of Commerce Is receiving the whole
hearted support of the ctttrens of
the community, who from time to 1
time advise the organization recard- i
Ing special events or of things which
it Is believed have merit along pub- !
Iicity lines.

It win never be given out, but a
confidential report on the Guffey
coal bill was prepared a few days ago
by an NRA authority, who held It to
be unconstitutional.
The report argued strongly againat
the advisability of permitting the
proposed nine-man board to fix
price. It contended the board would
be dominated by the coal Industry
and coal labor: that consumers were
not adequately represented. And fin
ally it asserted that the power to fix
minimum prices was bad: that maxi
mum prices should be fixed, if any.
It is understood the report was
prepared at the request of a foremost
admlnlstrarion authority, but appar
ently it gave the wrong answer. At
least It would not help the adminis
