HURRYING GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP

Samuel Untermeyer, the noted New York lawyer, in speaking OF the
strike situation, characterized the attitude of the railroad presidents as
or -sghted and said: They we're furnishing the best possible evil
dcnce in favor OF government ownership. An eght-hour law could be
that such a law embraced economic problems of far-rcaching proper
tons, the solution OF which is besct with endless complications. Sooner
or later they must be met, but President Wilson Vas shown his usual
courage in meeting them at this particular time" Mr.. Untermeyer tur-
Their said:
The recommendation for the enlargement Of the membership and
satisfaction and relief from all sides. If that long sought and much need

have been in vain.

sphere OF usefulness have been constantly enlarged the same number Of

1T has also long been evident and have for at least i've years
been advocating giving the commission control over security issues and
particularly over receivershps and reorganization o rnSovent railroad
corporations The commission should have the same power to admins

possessed in every civilized country, ave ours, W e should have been
spared the scandals and oppression that are now the almost invariable
incident OF the present antquated and inadequate procedure. We would
also avoid the cver increasing and now imminent peril oil having almost
our entire railway system in the grip of a handful OF bankers in Wall
Street, which is the direct result of our defective laws. This entire sub
jet W as exhaustvey investigated by the Pujo committee in 1913, which
then recommended these reforms.
The commission should be enlarged to fifteen members and the
work divided into three departments, II to deal with rates and labor

Wilson, 1916; Hughes, 848!
That is the way the students from all over the United States attend
ing the unmer session OF Columbia university. New York, stand on the
presidential race.
A straw ballot has been taken by the college daily, the Spectator,
exceptional regard for accuracy, the college editors went about the task
OF sounding the student body and it required four days for them to COM
pete the vote.
With flaming headlines the Spectator came out at the completion OF
a breezy speSrnen OF college Journalism, and reminded one OF the big
dahies O the day after a real presidential election.
Even the wisest OF the politicians have been studying the results OF
this college ballot for president 1t is really significant in that it gives
an mixing OF how the representative citizens OF nearly every state in the
Union stand in the campaign. The 2l44 voes of these students rep
resent groups OF students who have but recently come from their homes
in practically every state OF the country. They re not students who
have been at the college for a whole term, or for any length OF time.
They recently left home for the summer course and will nrobablv all
be back in their homes in time to voe II the real election.
One thing OF particular interest in this college ballot is that even
without the Solid South President Wilson gets a handsome majority
over Hughes. Another surprise to the Republican contingent was that
the President carried many Of the Central Western states which the Re
pubEcans have been claiming both in and outside of college walls. Still
another surprise to the Republicans came when So women were counted
for Wilson against 326 men
Wilson showed great strength among the students from the far west,
carrying California by IS to &c, the State OF Washington by 10 to 3. Or
egon, the other Pacific coast state showed 4 Tor Wilson and 5 for Hughes
in the students ballot.
The contest in New England states va particularly interesting to
students OF the present campaign From Maine I students voted for
Wilson with 10 against him, and Massachusetts a closer still with 40
for Wilson and 43 for Hughes. The women from Massachusetts, gave
Wilson a majority owe Hughes, their vote standing Wilson 10, Hughes

THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL

Upon Germany. the effect OF Rumanias declaring war n Austria
will be both moral and military. Morally, it cannot fail to be a great
blow to German hopes and German confidence. Only a few days ago
we were told from Berlin that Rmauia statesmen. being among toe
shrewdet in Europe. could not think OF siding with the Entente unesS
they were sure that the Niles were going to win. Thus we have the fatal
comment supplied in advance by the Germans themselves! Take the
lowest view OF the motives OF Eratano and King Ferdinand, and 1t only
shows that they believe the doom OF the Teutoric powers to have sound
ed. Moreover. Germany could not sit by this time in apparent indiffer-
ence when wa was declared on Austria, as she did when Italy took that
course last year. Francis Joseph was entitled to call upon the Emperor
William for help when the sword a thrust att Pennsylvania. and Hun
gary Wa, threatened anew. Accoordinely, Germany took TIP the Ri
nanian challenge.
1t would be idle to make military predictions, but it is plain that
Rumania will act in unison with Russia. and that together they can aim
a mortal stroke At weakened Austria. unless Germany comes to her aid
