UP TO GOVERNMENT NOW.

In view of the trouble which has been experienced in getting goods ship ped from one section to another, through the confusion of priority or ders, the exercise of one authority against another and of course from the general railroad congestion which has resulted from a tremendous pres sure of business as well as from those rther conditions which have operated to embarrass the transportation busi- ness, much hope is placed in ability of the new government operation of the railroads to straighten out the tangle
 How great is the need for such ac- ton is clearly shown when it is claimed that coal which New England Is clamoring for has been sidetracked that 80 cars of vegetable food has beer kept unloaded in a New York freight yard for mary Jays by spectators that one carioad of copper has Deer reconsigned 15 times and still remains unioaded to say nothing of the many other instances of similar natur, which are to be found in almost ever, section of the country.
 Where the federal and state author ities have been unable in the past tt rectify these conditions reliance is nov placed upon the director general O railroads and the experts and officials under him to lose no time in givins their closest attention to such matter by instituting and enforcing such re forms as are required. It is to b hoped that We will not look to tn government in vain for the speed, overcoming of the many difficulties

PUBLIC OPINION SHOULD AcT.I

Statistics regarding crime, as well as those concerning other things, are dry reading, but when it is shown as it is by figures which have been conn., piled, that the murder record for the year 1916 shows an average rate for the country of 9.2 per 100, GOO popula- ton, or a jump from S.4 for the previ- ous five years. it furnishes much food for thought especially in the sections of the country which are responsible for the increase.
 No credit reverts to the community which tops the list as Memphis does with it's record of S99 murders based on 100000 population, or in fact to any of the cities which come anywhere near it. It calls on the other hand for the directing of greater attention to this situation and no greater force can be brought into play concerning this matter than public opinion Right there to a large degree rests the re. sponsibility for as long as such con- ditions are tolerated they can be ex. pected to continue. It is impossible to wink at crime and expect to over. come it.
 It shows how this problem is han. dled in the different sections when tho figures point out that the high crime average is to be found in southern cit. les, those with the largest Negro pop. nlation. The rate for Memphis wa.

CAN BE NO LET UP.

Now that we have turned the corner and entered upon the new year, it does not mean that we can let up any in our food conservation. There are several months yet before new crops will be obtainable and there are quan- titles of certain kinds of foodstuffs where there is scarcity in other lines.
 1t is opportune therefore that there should now be opened an eight weeks drive for increased consumption of cornmeal. The object of this is to make use of the supplies which we have and which are not as good for export instead of going the limit in consuming that which we are more used to and leaving a surplus of cer- tain materials to carry over into an . ether season. There will also be other v'ayT in which cxportable staples, ih7s~ which are needed by our sol md allies, can be- conserved in
 TT manner to that which is be- ] '~ed regarding cornmeal.
 is a wise move which is be- ! in that direction. Mir. 1Ioo- N' i'd get widespread support in this 11deTtaking. It is in every way sane and sensible and the quicker this is realized and each and everyono does his part the quicker will the desired adjustment be brought about. The consumption of cornmeal will mean a tremendous saving in wheat. Corn meal is an excellent food ard it is the duty of every household to display its loyalty by conforming to the advice or the food administrator.

CUTTING RED TAPE.

One of the great problems encoun- tered in the carrying out of the big shipbuilding programme on which this country has entered is the securing of sufficient employees and at the same time the obtaining of proper housing facilities to accommodate the army of workmen in the vicinity of the ship yards. The provision of houses is vii tai to the shipbuilding. Construction work is required at once in order to meet the situation and the shipping board takes the right view Of the mat ter when it launches out with the idea of erecting the necessary dwellings without waiting for the actual appro- priation of the funds to build them Application has of course been made to congress for the $35,0ee 0eo needed for these houses. but to wait for the ordinary red tape to get this matter through the various channels would mean that lot of valuable time would be lost.
 Thus to get the benefit of the time that would be wasted the shipping board has already commenced work on it's plan for the housing of. the efn ployes. It is to spend s10.G0O,o 1000 fol the purpose of erecting homes about some of the new shipyards and thnus ands of men are already engaged if that work and by the time congress. gets around to taking action author. t'izing the necessity funds the wert will be well along towards completion It is work which nasr be careful,
 supervised to prevent serious vast, but it is cutting of red tape wilicl
 is thoroughly justified under presen ] conditions.

CREWS FOR NEW SHIPS.

Among the needs which are being realized at this time are those of se- curing the men with proper training for the. handling of the new vessels which are being turned out by the shipping board. A ship a day, or even more as the five to eight million ton mage is produced during the year, is going to call for a large number of seamen, firemen, engineers, officers and those in other capacities for the operation of the ships. It is perfectly apparent that green men cannot be entrusted with such important work. Under normal conditions such thing would not be considered and it cer- tainly cannot be now when the exi- gencies of war require even greater skill and care.
 It is therefore of the greatest inn portance that most serious attention
 should be given to the training of mer for these very positions long effougf
 in advance of the putting into com mision of their ships to give then some familiarity with their work tS acquaint them with the responsibilit! which will devolve upon them and t. | insure the greatest possible degree O I safety for the crews, the vessels ant the cargoes. Some of these training
 schools have been busy for months bu the placing of the recruits which ar, l now being enlisted for this worl
 aboard training ships should prove 0
 the greatest value. There is nothing like actual experience even after tn
 theory is we'll understood and such i
 to be gained on the high seas and no I on the land.
