BUSINESS CHECKED
BY LABOR UNREST

NEW YORK, Oct. ls-Dun's today
will say:
No impor,an, branch of enterprise,
either in the producing or distributing
field, wholly escapes the delcterious
effects of the continued widespread
unrest OF labor, which prevents the
general expansion OF commercial sc-
tivity that stable conditions would
stimulate. Strikes on transportation
line. in the east have aggravated an
already seriously unsettled situation,
causing freight embargoes and fur

commodities and the threat OF a walk
out OF bituminous coal miners on

at appears that wave of crime is
sweeping over the whole country and
few sections are exempt from this
condition." says the Milford Chronicle.
"In the great cities and smaller towns
reports of robbery, murder and often
ses against peace and good order of
the community at large, seem to
crowd the columns of daily papers.
There is a reason for this condition,
which can be plainly traced to the un
usual conditions which have prevailed
thruOut the land as the result of the
war Men and women have been re-
ceiving unusual sums for their time,
and the wonderful prosperity in some
instances have overbalanced the judg
ment of the individuals, and rotOus
living has followed, with its Offenses
coming as a natural sequence. The
attempt to blow up the homes of prom
inent Philadelphia officials last week
by bombs clearly demonstrates that
the people of the United tates have
got to meet the situation with firm
ness and ferret out and then punish
the guilty w III penalties which will
meet the crimes committed. So much
engrossed has the country been with
patriotic efforts that the local govern
ment has been permitted to drift with
small guidance from the officials of
the law, but this has changed now and
hencefOrth the people will force obed-
ience and respect for the law, regard
less of cost in money or time. 1t is a
duty all owe to see that the life and
property of all the people is safe and
scure under democratic form of gov
eminent. That is one of the things
we have been fighting for against
Germany, and it is what the people OF
the United States demand for all cit
liens of this country"

Although the expense of construc-
tion would be very heavy, Maryland
folk are seriously considering the
suggestion to build a large bridge
across the chesapeake bay, conect-
ing Baltimore with the Eastern Shore.
Commenting on this the Morning
News says: Governor Harrington
has called a meeting of the executive
committee of the citizens committee,
which has the project under discus
sion. Data will be collected as to the
actual cost and the probable traffic.
The proposal, it is said, is looked upon
with favor by the War Department.
Such bridge would contribute to the
national defense. The railroads and
trolley companies will be asked to Of
fer suggestions and perhaps bid fol
the exclusive right of operating q
line on the bridge Should the plar
be carried out, no doubt trolley line
perhaps a railroad line, would be built
connecting with the Eastern Shore
The distance between the towns O-
Delaware and of the Eastern Shore
and Baltimore and Washington woult
be very much lessened by the bridg
route. 1t would be much shorte
from Dover to Baltimore than from
Dover to Philadelphia"

From the views expressed by a
number of our citizens, day electric

prevails in nearly every business
quarter that Smyrna will never be

Whether the country is prepared to
try out the government ownership of
Railroads is question not to be hur-
riedly entered into and for this reason
the MacAdoo "Five-Year Plan" is
meeting with opposition. Over a hun
dred railroad presidents have met and
passed a resolution asking for the
roads to be returned to their owners.
While government regulation is not
objected to, trained railroad men be-
lieve that better results can be at
tanned by having them run by corpor-
ate interests than by the Government.
At least it will divorce the roads from
politics, a menace that railroad inter
ests feel should be steered clear of.
