.;s* Railroads MIXED. 4
It fresh hearings are called particu-
lar attention will be directed to the
charge that the railroads have been
MIXED Of hundreds Of millions of dol
lars by excessive payments to supply
corporations owned and controlled by
railroad directors. A large majority
of the directors of the seven greatest
railroad systems are said to be d.
rectors also of tens of scores of other
corporations from which the railroads
purchase locomotives, steel rails, tim
her and other materials.
During the period of government
operation OF the roads the old direc-
tos were stopped from the practice
or purchasing from themselves at the
expense of stockholders, and their de-
sire to resume that practice Is said to
explain In part the great organized
drive to restore private operation of
the roads regardless Of everv other
factor involved.
It has been a basic contention of
Glenn e. Plumb that even if traffic
rates were raised to the level do.
manded by the private operators as a.
prior condition to the return OF the
s1ines the sure result would be a dimin-
uation of the volume of business 50
pronounced that revenues would fall
Oft and the spectre Of bankruptcy re-
turn within a few months.
- Plan Another Orgy.
Meanwhile, however, it is contended
that old directors would, under the
proposed restoration law, have author
ity to expend as much as they desired
OF the roads income for rebuilding
and re-equipment purposes, diverting
almost the entire amount into the
supply corporations which them them
selves control and over which the gov
ernment has no jurisdiction.
Well Informed labor and the pro-
s1resstve farmers have been fully ac-
qua1nted with these facts and intrigue
tor months, and have held that the
restoration of private operation was
designed principally to allow of one
more financial orgy by the insiders
before the final collapse Of railroad
autocracy and the permanent .estab-
sltshment of rail transportation on a
basis Of public ownership and service.
. It Is now hoped by the brotherhoods
and the farmers that this prospect
can ba brought before the people and
congress- clearly enough within the
present month to disrupt the almost
realized program Of the private oper-
ators.

Would Seqreqate Criminals.

Oshkosh, March % - Municipal
Judge A. G. Backus spoke on crime and
its remedy before the Open Forum at
Oshkosh. "Crime and criminals have
been a menace to the social order for
centuries and ages" said the judge.
History discloses that wherever pun
ishment was severe and inhuman,
crime had become rampant and in
creasing. The law has been applied
only after the criminal act was cOnsum-
mated. The law never reached the Of
fender before he started his career of
crime, and there has been the weak
ness of our system. The state is in
terested in every child for, after all,
children are the nations greatest asset.
If the nation becomes as active in ap-
plying remedies before the youth is
brought into court as it does in apply
ing punishment, crime will be reduced
to a minimum. The teachings Of the
law Of God make splendid manhood
and womanhood. The three essentials
of the existence and life Of society and
nation are the home, the church and
the school. If you eliminate any one
of these, the nation will crumble to
dust. It is proper training that makes
the nation strong and great. Criminal
classes as we find them today should
be segregated from society"
