INSIDE AT WASHINGTON

TT is customary for big business inter-
ests to have eyes and ears in Washing
ton. A good tipster at the capital makes
more than cabinet officer. But if there
is one thing that could try public patience
to the vanishing point it would be proof
of the allegation that the present secre-
tary of the Senate was appointed to his
office through influence exerted by repre-
ssentatives of the Chicago packers.
! A secretary of the Senate knows all
that goes on at executive sessions and
most Of what Senate leaders are planning
His forecasts of any legislative program
would be invaluable to SPECTATORS
The Senate could we'll afford to forget
the league of nations, the railroads and
even the cost of living long enough to
appoint new secretary or prove that
the charges against the present official
are without foundation.

sage of the annual railroad bill through
Congress,

But this proposition has not come with
out warning. The foundation for it was
laid in 1916, when the Adamson eight
hour law was browbeaten through Con-
gress by the brotherhoods under threat
Of strike on the eve of a presidential
election. 1t was discovered then that the
politicians, from President Wilson down,
were cowed and dared not resist the de-
mands of a compact organization with
votes.
The President has long been seeking
the support of the radical labor element.
This explains his toying with the Bol-
shevki in Russia. 1t explains his speech,
no longer ago than last May, when he
talked about the characterization of IN
dustry and the sharing by the workers
with capital in the control of industry
1t explains the assurance with which the
representa- of the brotherhoods went
to Washington last week with their de-
mand for reduction in the cost of living,
followed by the introduction in Congress
of their bill turning the railroads of the
country over to the men who operate
them.
1t explains, too, the entrance of the
brotherhoods into the American Fedora
tion of Labor a few weeks ago in order
to exhibit to the President the number of
organized workingmen who were ready to
back this project.
The plan of the Sims bill is not new.
1t was outlined by Glenn f. Plumb, coun-
sci for the brotherhoods, before the Sen
ate commerce committee on February
:. A league named after Mr.. Plumb has
been formed to conduct a campaign in
its behalf. The brotherhoods are insist
ing on their right to engage in political
action in order to accomplish their pur-
poses, confident that even though the
railroads are now under government con
trol, they will not be rebuked by the
President.
And this is going on in spite of the
amentable financial failure of govern
ment control of the railroads, a failure
which does not disturb the brotherhoods,
because the big deficit was created largely
by the need of money to give them the
increased pay which they got as soon as
Mr.. McAdoo began to supervise the pay
rolls
The plan is prepOsterous in economy
and arrogantly demagOgic as n political
conception, since it is wholly and solely
group legislation al the cost of all other
workers.

ocratic party will have to be the old Republi
can issue of capacity against incapacity.
They won't strengthen their case by
showing incapacity in dealing with the
league covenant. To impress the country
they must do quick and businessike job
of accepting the treaty with such reservations
as will appeal to the good sense of the ma
ton.
Can the Republicans do this? Is there
enough union and organization and leader
ship among them to go quickly to a definite
end?
Here again Mr.. Wilson has the advantage.
He is one against many. He has the advan-
tage which has made the executive able to
dominate Congress. The opposition to him
is more or less Of a mob. Many men among
it are shouting their suggestions in the hope
their voices may lead the rest to rally about
them and accept their leadership. OF real
purpose and real capacity none is yet dis
cernible
The Republicans have the advantage Of
practical issues that touch the voters life
and his pocket. Mr.. Wilson has tried to
shift the ground by appealing to the voters
idealism. BY failing to show practical capac-
ity in meeting Mr.. Wilson on his chosen
ground the Republicans take the risk Of
making the country impatient and destroy
ing their reputation to get things done.

icaly to advantage and the time may
come when regularly organized motor
service will supplement the trolley lines
to make quick and comfortable transpor-
tation easier than it is now in the crowded
hours.
But experience has shown that safe
and desirable service cannot be rendered
by jitneys for five-cent fare. The New
York bus lines have the most efficient
system of street motor transport in the
country and they have found that they
cannot operate efficiently if each pas
senger is charged less than ten cents a

NOT THE RIGHT KIND OF TALK

90TNHE railroad employees are in no mood
L to brook the return of the lines to
their former control" wrote the leaders
of the railroad Big Four.
Curious language surely when ad
dressed to the American people
European autocrats now in the discard
used to employ such naughty phrases to
COW their enslaved subjects.
But it comes strangely from the lips Of
men seeking what they declare is justice
at the hands of democracy.
1t remains to be seen whether the
American people are in a mood to brook
this kind of insolent dictation.

A JITNEY REVIVAL

TALK of jitney revival in the Camden
suburbs is a natural consequence of
the zone-fsre decision just made by the
Public Utilities Commission. Jitneys
have their virtues as we'll as faults. They
are far better than straps. But the
casual service which they provide is at
best poor substitute for efficient street
railway service.
The people of New Jersey have an in
centive to retaliation in their dealings
with the trolley corporations, although
elsewhere there remains doubt concern
ing the justice of irresponsible compet.
tion with established street-railway sys-
TENS which were created by the original
jitney. Many lines in every large trolley
system are operated at loss. Many
riders are carried over long distances
without profit. Statistics show that at
the present general low rate of street
railway fares the operating companies
can earn a profit only by taking the fat
with the lean, They profit in the rush
hours from strap hangers and by the
short haul
It was into this rich, if restricted,
field that the jitneys broke at the begin
ming Of their vogue. They assumed little
or nothing of the heavy burden of the
general street transport service. They
often were operated by irresponsible
speculators and at best their service was
+ aneertain, and sometimes dangerous to
the passengers. 1t is conceivable that in
,energencies or in isolated fields of opera
tion motorcsrs may be utilized systemat-
