RAILROADS

War is great civilizer." The
old saying was true Of no conflict
more than the great world-engulfing
cataclysm now pending.
II should surprise no one II out
of the necessities OF this government
In bringing up its share OF effective
support behind the holy cause Of the
allies, the railroads Of the country
should pass under federal control.
or indeed possibly federal owner
ship.
The committee on national pre-
paredness recently issued a state
ment in which the expression.-
government ownership OF Ameri-
can railroads is likely to come in the
surprisingly near future" The
committees statement does not
come from a dissatisfaction with the
attitude Of the present railroad man
agement, nor does It reflect in any
way a lack Of willingness on that
management to do everything in its
power to serve the people and gov-
ernment Loyalty and to the best ad-
vantage circumstances will permit.
But it has proven a fact that private
ownership does not give that high
degree OF efficiency which war con-
ditions demand.
The committee gives the railroad
management a clean bill of health.
It states that they are. without ex-
ception striving to overcome the
handicap of the accumulated mis-
takes OF the past which have made
for inefficiency. The first thing done
was to effect what amounts to al
most a consolidation Of all the rail-
roads of the country into one ma
tional system. This step accomplish
ed much. It was the greatest step
ahead; and 1t points out the official
dom, the way in which even greater
progress may be made, that OF ac-
tually putting these lines under a
single ownership #
The committee points out that
there is great deal OF unnecessary
passenger train, parlor and dining
car service which may profitably be
eliminated Freight car supplies,
coal supplies can be pooled under a
single ownership where now there
Is a rivalry both in purchasing and
distributing the same.
But the main point OF the argu-
ment, as advanced, is that the rail-
roads are greatly in need of added
equipment. for which funds are not
available because private capital is
afraid OF railroad securities. With
federal ownership. practically unlim-
1ted capital will be available. rail-
road securities will be attractive be-
cause OF the governments guar
antees OF a fair rate of return; com
banies now struggling will be put on
sound basis, and surety and def
niteness will succeed uncertainty
and doubt.
1t will be an immense undertake

BREED MORE HOGS
URGED ON FARMERS

Washington. Nov. 5.--To win the
war we need more meat. To get an
increased meat supply quickly hog
breeding must be increased materi-
ally throughout the country, and In
certain states an increase OF from
% to 30 per cent in the number Of
hogs is recommended by the United
States department OF agriculture.
The situation Is OF greatest i'm

The fire record during the past
five years has been good. and we
hereby wish to commend the citizens
OF Grants Pass upon their efficient
fire chief, but at the same time the
most efficient fire chief In this coun-
try could not stop a conflagratlon In
a city unless he has the proper
equipment and the necessary men
for which TO combat fire. In our
opinion II is important that'th most
rigid inspection OF such town be
made continually. thereby relieving
the city OF the causes from which
fire originated.
Summary Of Inspections
lsS places we're inspected, includ-
ing one opera house. two picture
shows. four schools and churches.
or OF the above places, We found
46 places with defective wiring.
80 places where floors and walls
were unprotected from stoves.
26 buildings with exposed and IN
protected opening.
32 places with accumulation Of
rubbish.
- places where gasoline was i'm
properly kept.
IA places order metal cans for
oily waste.
places with defective stoves,
pipes or flues.
: places with ashes in wooden
boxes and barrels.
; places where steam pipes we're
in contact with wooden floors or
partitions.
4 places ordered drip pans for
waste OIL
p - Electrical Hazard
We found during our inspection
that the buildings, as whole. are
not wired in accordance with the
National Electrical Code which their
ordinance provides. In most places
where we had access to the open
work. we found unsoldered joints
and exposed wiring. especially US
this true in repair work.
Old and DiIapidated Buildings
The fire hazard OF Grants Pass
would be greatly reduced by the re-
moval of the following buildings--
frame buildings located from 317
to 323 G street and situated on the
southwest corner of Fourth and G
streets. The block on the east side
of Sixth street, south between J and
X street; fran barn located at
northwest corner Pine and Fl streets
Schools and Public Buildings
The schools Of Grants Pass are OF
brick construction. but are totally
lacking in proper outside exits,
which we consider very important in
case OF fire. When one considers
that many school houses are des-
troyed by fire every year, we feel
