WOOlley Prophecy
Has Come True

On September l the government
will cease to meet the deficits of
the railroads through direct pay
ments from the public treasury.
Thereafter the defirits will be met
through a tax levied on every one
who uses the railroads. This will
take the form of increased freight
and passenger rates.
The direct guarantee will cost the
government between $500,000,000
and 100000 for the period between
March 1, 1920, when the roads went
back to privat ownership, and Sep
tember 1, 1920. At that rate the
total deficit for the first year of
private ownership will be somewhere
between 1,000,000,000 and $780,
100000
Thus the prediction made by Inter
state Commerce Commissioner Robert
w. Woolley that one year of private
ownership would cost the people Of
the country more than twenty-six
months of federal control is more
than sustained.-Labor.
After the private owners have con-
Quoted the railroad business a few
years longer they will own the
United States, then they'll have to
pinch dividends on watered stock to
continue in business.

SHORT TELLS
ABOUT FUNDS
OF CAMPAIGN
Federation Raising Money Sep.
arately From General
Committee

William M. Short, president of the
State Federation of Labor, is send
ing a statement to all affiliated To-
cal unions explaining that the 81
member asked by the Federation
for the fall political campaign is a
separate fund from the 100000 be-
ing raised by the general finance
committee of the state Farmer-La-
Dor Party.
The voluntary assessment was au-
thorized by the State Federation of
Labor convention in Spokane. AL
though L. w. Buck, secretary of the
Federation, is also chairman of the
general campaign finance committee,
labor's financial support is being
handled through separate fund and
checks should be made payable to
the Washington State Federation of
Labor if coming from a local union
indorsing the voluntary assessment.
Both funds will be disbursed joint
ly through the state Farmer-Labor
Party. Bucks official report as sec
retary of the State Federation will
show the disposal Of all moneys
raised on the 81 assessment plan.
