ANOTHER CHANCE TO HELP.

HELPING the railroads which have been so slow in
= = helping Oklahoma in the matter Of equitable rates. may
not appeal to the people of this state, but where such help
will also be Of assistance to the state and the country, the
matter merits consideration, Land transportation is only
a little il any less vital to this countrys var program than
water transportation, and the war makes heavy calls on
the railroads in the transportation of troops, and in carry
ing supplies for the army to the environments and the sea
board. This strictly war transportation must proceed
uninterruptedly, whether school keeps or not, and domestic
commerce must make the best of what is left. To make
that best as good as possible, Hale Holden, regional di-
rector Of the railroads for this section, is urging all man.
ufacturers and dealers who can to store during the sum
mer months sufficient materials to meet their needs during
the winter.
There are abundant reasons for this precaution. Rail
reading is infinitely more difficult in winter than in sum
mer. Billiards. frequently block the lines, severe weather
causes, engine trouble, and the fast freight isn't apt to be
as fast as it was in the summer Also, as our army grows.
the amount of army shipments must show a steady increase,
and the army will keep on growing throughout the com
ing winter. There is a limit to what railroads can do.
and the limit. to what they will do is frequently lower
than that. The dealer who waits until next winter for
goods he might have shipped this summer, may have to
keep Oh in his pastime of procrastination until next spring
To swamp the railroadc with business next winter would
handicap the war movements, and also be taking chances
of not getting the needed shipments, which might cause a
greater hardship to our own trade and industries than TO
the railroads. Already much has been done in this sort
of preparedness, particularly in storing the winters coal
supply in advance, but a great deal more along the same
line could be accomplished, if business men give the matter
their attention. II they will remember that what is not
procured in advance may not be attainable at all, it should
help to further such forehanded traffic,
At the same time, the railroad directors. who are urging
this effort at efficiency, should remember that more could
be accomplished if Oklahoma were given the rates to which
de is fairly entitled. Unless this is done, many shippers
will delay orders until such adjustment it made, and they
will not be the ones most to blame if they do. Summer is
waning, and if summer freight is to provide az inst winter
needs, it must be used 10 its fullest capacity soon. The
rate wrongs should be righted at once.
Shippers, however, should not lose sight OF the fact that
they aren't helping the railroads alone, or even principally,
by such precautionary measures. They are helping them

Destruction Of the west wing of the Emerson school
Friday night is a regrettable loss at this time, but it might
have been worse, 1t might, FOR instance, have occurred
when the building was crowded with children, in which
case proper training in fire drills would have saved the
youngsters-we hope. At the same time, it is an unwar-
ranted, an unnecessary risk to house schools in inilammable
edifices, particularly in a community which can afford
the proper sort of structure, and nearly every community
can, including this one.
