THE SUGAR TRAGEDY.

Representative Tinkham has re-
opened old wounds by his attack on
the Administration for bungling the
problem of sugar prices. The house
wife who has to pay twice as much
for sugar as she paid year ago can
only have her feelings lacerated by
a fresh recital of the governments s
Indifference to the interest of the
sugar consumer. She may be glad to
see those who consented to the boost

she going to get back the money
which that indifference has cost her?

cumstances the government was able

Of all the war and after-War blum

Of all the war and after-War blum
ders of an ungrateful democracy
nothing that we have seen compares
with our tragic failure to care for
disabled soldiers, the record of which
The Evening Post is now uncovering
There are more than 100000 of
these disabled men. More than 200,-
900 registered for training under the
governments much advertised provi-
sion for making these cripples and
stricken men self-respecting and ef-
fcient members of society. Of these
it is estimated that at least 100000
are eligible for training. Yet nine
teen months after the organization of
the responsible body-the Federal
Board for Vocational Education
only $4,000 have been put into train
ing and only PIT have been trained
and placed in gainful employments; !;
that is, PIT for the whole country, it
should be made clear. For the three
states of New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut the number of forty
three. Last December the board
paid out $386,807 in salaries to g.
PAP employees; it paid only S139, 1886
for tuition for 21.637 disabled SOL
diers.
These last figures apparently give
a vivid notion of the spirit in which
the work is conducted. The disabled
soldier is not treated as a charge of
honor upon the nation, entitled toI
every consideration and assistance;
he is obliged to prove his right to
treatment through an endless period
of technical opposition and bureau
cratic red tape. No wonder men be-
come disheartened and disgusted and
quit! Of the men approved for
training 80 per cent drop out and
throw up their chances. The circum-

locution office vents it's months of
weary questionings and applications
and forwardings and filings and
initialings, and at the end the
wounded soldier is often beaten.
Small wonder. The labyrinths of this
government bureau would drive a
strong man to despair.
The whole revelation should stir
an instant wrath in every Ameri-
cans heart and a prompt investiga-
tion by Congress. Probably much
irrevocable harm already has been
done. But surely something can be
accomplished for the future. The
obligation of the nation toward
these men is of the profoundest and
solemnest description. 1t was so
sacred and the corresponding need
so pathetic and noble that the pub
lie assumed that it must be met
faithfully and we'll. Little did we
comprehend the workings of bureau
cracy, which sees in a crippled SOL

red tape, jobs and new acres of

to plug sugar prices during the war.
That was the one success Of the
campaign of price regulation. Since
the Cuban crop could be bought up
wholesale, it was comparatively easy
to deliver refined sugar to the Amer
lean household at moderate price.
Yet in way, perhaps, the very
success of sugar regulation became
a thorn in the flesh to the food con-
troll authorities. They couldn't hold
down the prices of other necessaries.
And the abnormallyslow sugar price
was always an awkward reminder
to the public Of the ineficacy of
control in other fields.
Attorney General Palmer's policy
has been to talk earnestly about re-
ducing the cost of living and to rely
on talk to restrain profteers.
Talk doesn't restrain anybody. It
wasn't talk but forehanded business
sagacity which kept sugar prices
down in 1918 and 1919. And when
the Administration refused last sum-
mer to buy up another Cuban crop
the era of 11-cent sugar came to a
tragic end.
The alleviation in sugar had been
artificial. Possibly every govern
ment alleviation of the present high
cost of living must be artifcial-a
temporary blocking of the operation
of economic forces. At any rate the
government is no longer chargeable
with inconsistency in applying
brake to sugar costs, but failing to
apply it to other food costs. 1t can
still talk about reducing prices by
moral and legal pressure. But every
body knows what that means. Per-
haps the housekeeper who to-day
pays 20 cents or more for sugar will
be the more easily reconciled to the
inevitability of the inflated cost of
other things.-New York Tribune.

rates which of course would be passed along to the

rates which of course would be passed along to the
public.
The railway workers have been so tender of the
public's pocket that under Government operation
they have slapped round billion more OF wages
upon the payrolls. Director-General McAdoo took
care of it and the rest of the increased costs under
Government operation by shooting up traffic rates
TO such dizzy heights that the American people are
now paving two billions of dollars year more OF
TRANSFORMATION bills than they paying only
about three years ago.
The railway workers still so tender OF the
nubc's pocket that they have been trying to blud-
eeon Director-G General Hines into slapping some
where between half billion and billion dollars
more upon the payrolls, to be taken care OF with
further traffic charges against the public
And the worst of 1.-THE economic montrosty
and the financial crime of its that neither tne
railroads nor the people have been getting returns
for the increased wages paid to the railway workers
and the increased transportation bills paid to the
roads by the public to the tune of some two billions
of dollars year The men get more money;
thew do less work. The roads haul less freight; it
costs them more to haul it.
Maybe it is true as semi-official reports state,
that no fewer than 100000 railway wage earners
now drawing good pay without their services beng
either needed or of any to the carriers could be
be dispensed with and, when the roads go back to
their owners, will be dispensed with. Maybe the
number is not quite so multtudinous. Maybe there
are no more than 275,O0O of such slackers. Maybe
there are only quarter of million.
But suppose the private management can lop off
$50 900 useless men now carried on the railroad
pavrolls. And because such men are not the day
laborers but the labor union aristocrats, suppose
the money they are now pulling down without earn
ing it averages $4,000 year EACH That would be
for all of them put together half billion dollars
year. Other things being equal, that amount OF
revenue saved from such waste to become net in
come would make the railroads as whole solvent
again. d. :Yti %..eeEN9si
Put it another way If from the present number
of about 1900, 900 rank and file railroad workers
were amputated 100000 that are not earning their
salt-if the whole number thus brought down
to working basis of 100000, all delivering
square days work for square days pay, the half
billion of dollars saved by looping off the payroll
grafters could be made to provide for the 100000
real workers wage increase averaging 1888 year
throughout the whole force of 100000 men.
What would Mr. Jewell, who thinks he lies awake
nights worrying his head off about the burdens of
the public say to sound business proposition like
that?-The Sun New York Herald
