RAILROADS AFTER THE WAR,

What will be done with the rail-
roads after the war?
The statute providing for govern
ment control stipulates that the lines
shall be returned to their owners
twenty-en months after the close of
the war.
The government may or may not
hand back the railroads. Railway
owners and operators and public Off
Gals differ on their version of this
move. But there is one thing certain.
The railroads after the war will be on
an altogether new basis.
In the first place there will be no
more Of the before-the-war wasteful
competition between rail lines. The
government control altho expensive to
the traveller and the shipper and rath-
er unsatisfactory at this time due to
crippled schedules and slow freight
and express shipments, will teach the
railroads a lesson. 1t will point out
to them the advantages of standard
ization OF equipment, the value of
economical operation thru less COM
petitive s-'iedules and the need of CO.
operation generally in matters of la
Dor. power and improvements.
Luxurious competition in passenger
traffic has cost the railways of the
United States millions of dollars. Gross
revenues have been increased ut the
net continued on the downward course.
i. The public has profited but slightly
thru the competitive methods en-
ployed by the carriers in the past.
Government control has revealed this.
The railroads have made wonderful
strides recently by the government
method of pooling Of terminals and
equipment. abolition Of off-line agen-
cies for freight and passenger solicita-
ton, arbitrary routing and unified
operation. 1t has cost the public
many extra dollars. to be sure, but the
money is spent for war purposes.
After the war it will be different
The roads will be face to face with
tremendously advanced wages that
must be met by revenues. The reve.
nue. must pay interest on securities
The war strain will tell on power and
equipment and maintenance Of way.
If. after the war. the railways are
released by the government, and the
owners are successful in restoring the
old passenger service, minus the in
conveniences. as well as the ola fares
the greatest transportation problem o.
! the age will have been solved.
If the government continues t.
operate the roads the public soon viii
demand better service. cheaper rate
and more conveMences.

erettes were subjected to on my farm"

girls loaded wagons, pitched wheat

recent draft will drain the rural dis

the vacancies there is going to be a
food shortage such as has never been
experienced before. Already the
farmers are making large retrench-

count of the lack of labor to plant
it. The president of a large seed asso-
citation calls attention to the alarming
decrease in farmers purchases of seed
which, he says, will make the prices
of vegetables beyond the reach OF the

year are buying only three and four

SAVING PAPER.

Paper is a valuable commodity and
its cost is increasing steadily. Every
pound of paper wasted represents the
waste of money that might better be
used to help finance the war, or to
help the Red Cross or Y. NJ. c. A. The
aggregate saving that could be real
lied by the more careful purchase and
more economical use Of paper would
be enormous.
Paper is an article of such general
and necessary use that II a shortage
were allowed to develop 1t would in
evitably lead to serious consequences
The efficiency of the agencies for the
dissemination of news, such as news
papers. magazines, trade journals.
books, ETC., would be impaired. The
transaction of business, which de-
ponds SO largely upon paper, would be
interfered with.
In order to avoid the possibility of
such a shortage several important
steps have already been taken.
The priorities committee of the War
Industries board has placed all pulp
| and paper mills on the preferred list
with the express understanding that
every economy shall be practiced.
The pulp and paper section has
adopted recommendations for curtail-
ing the consumption of paper by
newspapers. magazines. trade jour-
nails, textbook publications, etc, which
would result in the saving of from is
to rs per cent.
What now remains to be done is for
every consumer of paper from the
housewife and corner grocery or drug
store to the large bank, department
store. or business house to reduce the
consumption of paper to that which is
strictly necessary. A prompt and
whole-hearted response to the gov.
ernment's appeal to economic in the
use of paper will remove the possibil.
ity of a shortage and help materially
to win the war.
Every consumer of paper must real
ize that the failure to observe this re-
quirement may result in the with.
drawal Of any or all of the priority
privileges. without which the supply
cannot be maintained.

ANSWERS TO
CORRESPONDENTS

The following are some interesting
answers to correspondents who wrote
for information to the Topeka State
Journal Information Bureau, Wash
ington, D. c.:
Are any Of the bodies Of American SOL
diers killed in France being brought to this
country?
ANSWERING, none Of the bodies of men
killed abroad are being returned to this
country but are being buried over there.
After the war it is possible that bodies will
be returned. Identification methods are
such that in practically all cases graves
are marked and can be easily located.
Who are the Ruthenians?
ANSWER-The Ruthe1ians are a c1avic
people and a branch of Little Russians.
The name is derived from Ruthenia which
means Russia.

Brave Deeds of men IN

The United States marines were at.

formerly known as Belleau wood.
Everywhere sounded the whine of ma.
chine gun bullets. the crash of high
explosive. the roar of scattering

and one of the reasons for the steady
advance was Corp. Charles w. Brooks,
Of Company K. Time after time. thru
the heavy machine gun fire, Brooks
made his way forward with importan mt
messages, that meant the very exis-
tence of the hard-ffghting marines.
And not only did he deliver his mes
sages. but his disregard for his per-
sonal safety was an example that
strengthened more than one hard hit
fighter. Because of all this Corporal
Brooks has received the distinguished
