Nothing To Sell But Service
Railroad's ProbLvts An Community's Problems
L. W. Baldwin, president of the Missouri Pacific
railroad company, says:
"The railroads have nothing to sell except service,
and their success, progress and prosperity depend upon
their ability to provide adequate, dependable and satis
factory service, and sell that service.
"In spite of the fact that the population and volume
of business in this country has been increasing, the char
acter of railroad service provided has been constantly
improving- Passenger earnings have been declining.
There is a reason for this, of course. The answer is to
be found in the increased use of hard roads.
"The railroad in nearly every community and county
is the largest taxpayer, and frequently receives the least
consideration at the hands of those who handle the dis
bursements of taxes and other public moneys. '
"Without good railroad service no community can
hope to grow and prosper as it should. Therefore, any
thing which affecU a community's rnilroad, affects every
citizen and every industry in the community. ' "
"Railroad men are just lifca other citizens and are
anxious to do what is right and what is best for all con
cerned. Most of the so-called problems in which the pub
lic and the railroads are mutually interested would be
found not to exist at all, or easy of solution, if representa
tives of the public will sit down with representatives of
the railroads in honest endeavor to find out what should
be done, and do it."
Are You a Law Breaker?
, Of Courts You Are And Don't Know It
Sunset magazine poses the question : , "Are you a
lawbreaker? Of course you are! ' How could you hope
to obey all the laws passed by your city, your state, and
your national congress? If you should employ the most
able lawyer in the land to guide you he could not read
fast enough to keep informed as to the new legislation
and multiplicity of court decisions" Since we
can't even hope to know what all the laws are, it follows
that we must violate many of them, says the magazine.
Charles Alexander, editor of the Albany, Oregon,
Democrat, poet, novelist, critic, literary editor, says the
truth is quite as Sunset has stated it, we have reached a
state of mind where we must, by the terms of necessity,
use our own discretion and be our own judges of what is
proper and what is wrong. The fact that a thing is law
no-longer impresses us. "- "The man who craves
a drink and can get it," says the magazine, "feels no
moral restraint. Tell him that he is a lawbreaker and he
will laugh and cite instances to prove that you,- too, are
a lawbreaker." This is an indictment hard to
escape, says philosopher Alexander. It is a true indict
ment, one into which enters not alone the idle pomposity
of American laws in trivial matters, but also the official
lack of recognition of fundamental tendencies in the in
dividual which makes toward his decent treatment of his
fellow citizen." . Hear him further: "Take
the traffic law. If forty miles an hour is needed to make
the hill right ahead on high gear, and the way is clear
and safe, ninety-five per cent of drivers will speed to forty
miles or more. It is a matter of their own judgment
A regard for fundamentals is the greatest attribute
of any fundamentally free people, the enforcement of de
tailed regulations is a sign of the unfree serf.
"The more laws that are passed the less effective
they will become.' Truth is the middle ground, the no
man's land where so few men ever venture. Law is good.
Too little law is bad. Too much law is bad. A sensible
amount of law is just right. In America we
have altogether too much law, and illustrations cited are
merely examples of what obtains in a dozen other depart
ments of daily endeavor.
