Senators LaFollette> and Cummins,
across the same table, are watching
and asking questions, too. They are
showing that the people Of this coun-
try want real Government operation
Of the roads, and nit through any
one-man system, either. They are
showing that the only sane and SEN
sible method Of making the railroads
serve the public is to buy them, at
just what they are really worth.
The game will 60 to the Senate.
The debate will make good campaign
material. The people have a chance
to elect a Congress this fall that will
buy the roads and put them in the
hands Of the Interstate Commerce
commission, instead Of into the hands
Of three railroad presidents.
But when you read the newspaper
stories about Government operation,
just now, you a laugh.
Then you can get busy at making
it come true, through a nor sincere

Germany.
Fats supply energy. When people
60 hungry they draw on the fats in
their bodies. When that is gone they
are an easy prey for disease. Some
fats have stuff in them for growth.
Without fats, people weaken and
waste away.
Our armies use fat by shipload.
Glycerin, which comes from Fat, is
one Of the chief things for making
modern explosives. W. must have
fat to keep up the fight.
Save Fats. Do not limit your sup
plies Of milk and table butter and
cheese, but consume all; don't waste
any. You can cut the consumption Of
fats by reducing pastry and fried
foods. Use cotton seed or corn oil
or peanut oil for cooking. Use drip
pings.
Trim your own meat and melt the
fat. Don't let a scrap get into the
garbage pail.
Waste no soap; save the scraps;
it's made Of fat. Fats that cannot
be used for cooking should be saved
and made into soft soap.
Our waste of animal fat has been
awful. Save it. Cut down your con-
sumption at least one third Of an
ounce a day. That is enough to make
100000 tons a year, if ell America
saves its precious Fats.

PUBLIC SHOULD
OWN RAILROADS
Advocates of Government Ownership
Of Railroads Displeased Over Sew
eral of McAdoo's Appointments of
Regional Directors of Divisions.
MAY BE POLITICAL ISSUE.
Senators LaFollette and Cummins are
Both Active and Alert Participants
in the Fight Now Being Waged in
the Peoples Interests.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 6.-Public
ownership and government opera
ton of the railroads are going to be
one of the biggest issues in this years
congressional elections. That much
is apparent from the cleavage which
already has resulted in Congress.
There is but little doubt but that
a genuine sentiment exists through
out the nation in favor of government
ownership of the railroads. The news
papers, many Of them controlled by
Big Business affiliations, deny this
and do all they can to befog the is
sue, but the sentiment exists and if
the fight for government control can
be organized, if enough Congressman
can be elected upon this issue, there
is no reason why the United States
should not retain the railroads instead
Of returning them to their private
owners otter the war.
Ownership Advocates D~ispleased.
One Of the important factors in this
impending fight will concern the man.
ner in which the railroads have been
operated under government control.
If Government control has been sue
cessful this will give a tremendous
impetus to the movement for perman-
ent ownership. But if results have
not been satisfactory, government
ownership will be given a setback.
In this connection many advocates of
government ownership are greatly
dissatisfied with the policy of Director
General McAdoo in appointing A. H.
Smith, president Of the New York
Central, President Markham of the
Illinois Central, and President Ash
ton Of the Chicago & Northwestern as
regional directors of the Eastern,
Southern and Western divisions.
James M. Tittlemore, president OF
the Wisconsin union of the National
society of Equity, a former railroad
man of more than 80 years service, is
one who objects to this policy.
Not Government Operation.
