The Militarlstio Bogle

Thoughtful minds OF the nation
have already called attention TO the
fact that America, a peace-loviug ma
ton of peace-loving instincts and
habits. has fought conclusively a war
having for its deep-seated issue the
making of the world free from the
dangers of wars for the times TO
come The safest and sanest thought
warns that for a long time TO come
the nation must first of all see to il
that the United States is never again
caught in an emergency like the now
ending world war unprepared. There
are many reasons why the United
States should maintain a great fleet
and properly armed organization for
protection, and there are good reasons
why every young man coming to ma
turity should be allowed the privilege
OF obtaining the good results from
definite, systematic and required mill
tary training.
But these safe and sane ones do not
see the semblance of even the dim

Ownership by the government of
the telegraph and telephone systems
of the nation is strongly advocated
by Postmaster General Burleson. He
argues in support of government own
ership; The economic Importance of
the proposition to acquire properties
by the government is great Private
capital is invested in public
service enterprises with the ex-
pectation of seven TO eight per
cent and often a greater re-
turn upon the investment This, OF
course, the public is expected to pay,
while the governmnt can borrow
money at four and one.half per cent.
The public, however pays the charge
in either event. The difference be-
tween four and one.half per cent. and
eight per cent. for the money invest
ed in the wire system of the United
States would maintain and pay for the
property in eighteen years and nine
months. The government as owner
bDuld no more expect to charge for
interest on the investment than it
would for money invested in postal
facilities, navy yards or other public
property" When Mr.. Bureson or
anyone else can convince the people
