Soon after the entrance of the
United States in the war the successes
of the Central Powers in R0umania
had reduced that country to a most
tragic condition and in the summer
of 1917. the American Red Cross des-
patched its first Roumanian relief
contingent. Two hospitals were at
once taken over and operated by the
Red Cross, a canteen for the starving
refugees established and food and
clothing distributed over large area.
Transportation was one Of. the
toughest problems with which the Red
Cross workers in Roumania had TO
deal. Here is seen an oXcart used
by the Red Cross To carry its relief
supplies up into the mountains.

Paying The Piper
lFrom the Manufacturers Record.l

IfGOll Gn6 manufacturers h6CUTusy
THE Providence Journal calls attention to
the fact that two tracks of electric rail-
way in Massachusetts have been abandoned
because they could not be operated except at
heavy loss, and the Journal warns the peo-
pie that other railways may be abandoned for
the same reason.
1t is very simple to denounce the railways,
verylsimple to say that they shall not raise
their rates Of fare, and very easy to say that
they must go on steadily losing money, but the
owners of railroads are not going to keep on
piling up debts which can never be paid, and
many mile of steam road as well as electric
road will be abandoned, to the loss Of people
along the line, unless railroads. steam and,elec-
trio, are enabled to make a profit.
No. man is going to keep business that is
steadily carrying him more and more heavily
into debt, even though his customers nay suf-
fer his quitting the business.
There is no law on earth that can compe.a
man to keep on running a corner grocery when
it is losing money every day The people in the
neighborhood may need the groceries, but the
grocer himself will decide whether he is going
to quit the job or mott regardless Of the needs
Of the folks who have been buying from him.
Until people get this simple matter into their
minds they will keep on railing at business in
terests of all kinds, bat in the end will have to
pay the penalty of walking where the electric
railroad has been abandoned or doing other
things that are inconvenient and costly when
they have driven other interests out Of bust
ness.
We cannot get in this world just what we
would like to have; we cannot force other peo-
pie to do just what we wish they would do, and
so all of US have to make the best Of the situa
ton and sometimes pay more for a ride than
we formerly paid, or more for pound Of flour
or for pound of meat than we once paid, but
denunciation will not get us anywhere, 1t will
not give us a car ride, nor the pound Of flour,
nor the pound of meat.
