they caused some casualties and con

work, Their latest exploit was the

Help Make Oklahoma CITY
the "Home City" "

When the man who has made his money in Ok
lahoma begins to look around for permanent home
he usually selects Oklahoma City, He wants social
advantages for his children while the near location
to the states educational Institutes enables the chill
dren to attend them and spend their week-ends at
home The miles and miles Of paved streets form
endless driving range for his automobile
These are not satisfied to rent They have
bought their own homes building houses which suit
their personal tastes and express their indVidua-
ties And they have simply done in big way what
thousands of others have done more humbly Home
owning has become custom in Oklahoma City. If
you do not believe this go out and try to rent place
see how hard it is to find one
Home owning promotes the healthy growth of
a city. The man who owns his own home is more
anchored than renter Employers or business as
sociates look on him with greater favor He
will work harder for success here instead of looking
at the greener pastWerS beyond. The home that is
actually owned makes a comfortable proviso
against the uncertainties Of the future AS declin-
ing years bring lowered income-producing capac-
ity, many will find the saving Of expenses through
rent-free home a very valuable consideration.
: Owning your home in Oklahoma City is differ
ent than it would be in some stagnated eastern city
which has seen its highest growth. Oklahoma City
is going steadily forward and will probably double
it's population in ten years or less. This increase
means that the value of your home will constantly
increase and that if it becomes desirable to dispose
of it you can do so at profit
From the point of view of sentiment and salts
faction it would be worth owning home even at a
monetary loss but in Oklahoma City you own your
home at an actual profit SO there is double rea-
son why each householder should step out Of the
renting class and become full working unit in the
citizenship of our city.

very long time, either, there is nothing with the British railroads will be done with ours
 Those who advocate" government ownership mostly do so on the ground that it will solve the immediate prob lem" But, instantly that problem is solved, another one rises to take it's place. Government ownership of rail- roads becomes a problem itself that calls for solution. The never-ending progress of society is apparently bound up with the successive solving of never ending problems
 It is almost a certainty that the talk ing over of the railroads win be pub licly announced as a ''war time mea- sure" To make that announcement leaves the implication that after the war they will revert to private owner ship again. which, judging by the ex- perience of England. is nothing more than a comforting delusion. There is no opinion in England worth taking into account that holds that the rail- roads will ever revert to their previous status And it will be the same here.
 There is perhaps, just one sure way of knowing about when it has been de- sided that government ownership is to be the ultimate disposition of the rail roads. It is when men in high places begin making a virtue of necessity and enumerating the superlative mer- it's and advantages of government ownership of railroads, and limiting that whoever opposes it is unpatriotic if not disloyal; when this sort of thing overpowers the volume of objection when we begin to hear in high quart CTS that government ownership of rail- roads is not "socialistic" at all, as some mistaken people believe it to be.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1918-02-12

but the reason of hard, practical, busi- ness sense, then by these signs and tokens may we know that the day of government ownership of railroads is upon us.
 And when all is consuma 1eG, and Uncle Sam is running the rol Is, we shall all begin to tell each other that it was all done by the expdessed wish, desire and intention of the majority of the really enlightened community; that it was done, not because we had to do it, but merely because we wish ed to do it; that it was matter of free choice altogether and tt.at any one who talks of compelling must" IS a vile Socialist and an enomy of society.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1918-02-12
GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP OF
 RAILROADS DRAWING NIGH

There is nothing more certain in a study of the progress of humanity than that mankind in the mass does not do what it wishes, but what it must And when the compulsion is both apparent and Immediate there is nothing easier than to represent the action as the re- suit of wishes. Perhaps the easiest thing in the world to accomplish it to ''make virtue necessity" There is, in fact, no labor involved in the transmission at all; it is an au- tomatic action.
 Here for example, is the railroad question. Government ownership of railroads is almost on us. But it will not be actually realized until the must" becomes so pressing as to be absolutely imperative.
 The railroads are clamoring for in- creased rates; hundreds of thousands of the railroad employees are in turn clamoring for increased wages. Both conditions, pressing in opposite direc- tions, ineXoraby push the railroads toward government ownership. Pres ident Wilson himself mentions this policy as a last resort. And he is per fectly right. It is a last resort, and will be only resorted to at the last possible moment.
 Then there is the tremendous force of the world war, all of which is driv- ing in the same direction.
