Coordination Of railroad service
under government control seems logi
cally calculated to serve the purpose
of greater mobility in movement OF
war materials, yet in the passenger
divisions the fact that Uncle Sam has
his fingers on the keys does not seem
tending toward either improved or
progressive service to the public
Failing off in individual courtesy or
the part of employees in the passenger
service has been remarked by the
travelling public.
Under company management it has
always been required of all employees
that they extend every courtesy to
the patrons of the road. Since respon-
sibility now rests alone with the gov
eminent and the tendency has been to
discourage rather than encourage
passenger travel, many incidents may
be cited for disregard Of the former
courtesy of the road.
Elimination of competition in tick
ct sales and the general conversion
of the railroads into war transpor-
tation naturally is expected to remove
many of the inducements to travel,
but for those whose business compels
them to pass certain number of
hours and days each month on the
road, the resultant independence of
employees has not become conducive
to pleasant conditions.

The old adage that straws show
which way the wind blows holds true
IN national affairs as in the common
affairs of daily life. Several "straws"
have happened recently which would

Coming as they do from men standing
at the pinnacle of affairs in pilitical
and financial affairs, their significance

Premier Lloyd George, in an ad-
dress delivered at Meath, Wales, de-
clared that "the end of the tunnel"
thru which the Allies have been trav-

country to put all the might of the
empire into the fight "and," he contin-

One who has disgraced the Ameri-

graft deal on the government is utter
ly unfit to be honored or entrusted
with a position in any law-making
body. The propensity to graft is
bound to break out sooner or later
and the peoples interests are never
the first consideration of such a being.
If full justice were done such an one
