THE PASSING OF COMPETITION.

Possibly one OF the great results Of
this war will be the elimination of compe-
tition between public service organiza-
tons. Government control of the rail
roads has eliminated competition between
the different lines of travel and leaders
Of public thought are unanimous in saving
that the railroads should never be turned
back TO private ownership under pre- war
conditions. They want the roads given
the right to pool or combine their bust,
ness in a way that will give shippers of
the country the quickest and cheapest
transportation.
Close on the heels OF this talk came the
report of Theodore \. Vail to the post
Office department recommending the COM
bnatieu Of telephone and telegraph scrv-
ice throughout this country, also the cable
service TO foreign countries. This report
is attracting much attention throughout
the country. some of the leading news
papers saying that the wire service Of the
country is a natural monopoly and should
be treated as such The same is true OF
the railroads
Great difficulties will be encountered
in the elimination of competition. cspc-
cially in the case Of the railroads. Com.
pcting lines have parallclcd each other in
so many instances that ii will be hard t.
say whether transportation shall be di
yidcd between them or one Of the road,
discontinued \ division of traffic vii
probably be the result because no section
! OF the country will willingly give up any
+ railroad accommodations. This division
will be regulated by competent govern
mcnt authority because private owner,
could not agree upon a division of bust
mess.
/ Through price regulation during tn,
war the government has eliminated con
siderable competition in industrial an,
mercantile lines There has been no com
petition in the sale of many kinds o
food or in fuel. 1t is extremely doubtful
however, whether such policy woul,
work out successfully in normal times
Nevertheless, It is apparent that the pen
duum of public opinion which a few
years ago was swinging so far agains
business combinations is now swingin,
backward against competition in the ticl
Iof public utilities. II is TO be hoped that
as in the anti trust sentiment, it vii
not swing too far.

''We see the wild asters and we see

Vermont farmers who desire more help

sioner of industries, at Montpelier at
once. He is securing list of positions
to be offered to the soldiers returning
from France and army camps and the
farmers should not allow other classes of
employers to get ahead of them in making
their wants known. The price of farm
products is likely to remain high and the
demand for food and dairy products will
