with having said, when discussing

eminent control was absolutely neces-
sary as a war measure, and while it
has laid heavy burden on the peo-
pie in higher rates and sacrifice of
comfort and convenience, it has pre-
vented much greater sacrifice by
the rapidity with which it has moved
soldiers and supplies. According to
the war measure passed by Congress,
the railroads were to remain in the
hands of the government until TWEEN
ty-one months after peace was de-
clared. The official declaration of
peace is not likely to be made in
three months, so the roads will re-
main in government control for two
years, unless Congress shortens the
time; which it may do. However this
may be, the people and the railroads
have had several lessons impressed
on them by the government. which
they may profit by if they will. One
is cooperation; the other is the elm
