THE REVOLVING FUND.

The railroads have submitted to the
Interstate Commerce Commission plans
for making loans TO them of about $500
600. 600 out of the $500, 00O, 900 revolving
fund provided by the transportation act,
this money to be used for the purchase
of equipment, extensions and improve
ments and to meet maturing indebted
ness. II is the final report of the Asso-
citation OF Railway Executives on this
subject
The purposes proposed in this report
are those contemplated by the act, Con-
gress fully realizing the difficulties which
the railroads would face upon the re-
linquishment of control and operations of
the carriers by the government. The
troubles the roads would have in financing
their needs was anticipated by the trainers
of the act, which influenced them to make
provisions for government loans.
This $500 000,0 600 fund should be put
to work as quickly as possible 1t is In
cumbent upon the commission TO give to
the railroads and to the country the re-
lief which il will afford, and this with as
little DELAY as necessary Car shortage
is now the great obstacle to industrial
readjustment; consequently every day
lost in meeting the demand for additienal
equipment adds to the delay In getting
business back to a normal status.
1t is for the commission to distribute
loans from this revolving fund and to
determine the purposes for which the
money is to be used. These matters
should be decided as promptly as practi-
cable, so that orders for equipment may
be placed for the cars and locomotives so
sorely needed and such extensions as are
necessary begun at once.-Washington

PRESS COMMENTS
WORST FOES OF B OLSHEvISM.

In his speech at Moscow reported IN
yesterdays news columns, Nikoloi Lenine
declared that in England the worst foe OF
Bolshevism was the .opportunlst, arIsfo-
cratic working class His pronouDcerncnt
was unnecessarily limited in its geopra-
phic particular. Not in England alone but
IN other countries, and quite especially
in America, will the industrial order to
which he refers be found in open enmity
to the cause he represents. In this fact
lies the strong hope of the world for safety
agnlnst wide sweep of the plague'now
prevalent in Russia
The opportunist, aristocratlc working
class which Lenine has in mind is pre-
cisely the order of skilled, intelligent
labor. Industrialists of this sort in America
are accustomed to think and act for them
selves. They know, as rule, where their
next days compensation is coming from.
In their larger proportion they have bank
accounts. In favoring localities they own
their own homes. They have desires,
dreams and hopes. But they have a keen
outlook upon tn ings as they are, and the
least of their visions is that of world
controlled by brutal despotism masquer-
aiding under a title on benehcient Com
munism.
Lenine spoke particularly of England,
probably, IN memory of the outcome of
the visit to Russia some months ago of a
little company of inquirers representing
British labor. That visiting commission
as it set out was sympathetic to prin--
ciples set forth in an expression of the ideal
Bolshevism. 1t returned, after the shatter-
ing of its expectations, deeply impressed
by the wretched state of the unhappy
country II had visited
Skilled labor is one of our bulwarks
against Bolshevism as it has been misap-
piled. The "opportunist, aristocratic
workman" has little use for what Bert
rand Russell found to be an internally
aristocratic and esterually militant" rule,
with its concentrati6n Of political power
in few hands and its conseript labor

PRACTICE.


Always whenever | want to play
I've got to practice an hour a day,
Get through breakfast nm make my bed,
And Mother says. Marjorie, run aheadl
There time for work and time for fun,
So go and get your practicng done.
And Bud, he chucklcs and says to me:
Eyes, do your practicing, Marjorie
A brothers an awful tease, you know,
And he Just says that cause j hate 1t So
They leave me alone in the parlor there
To play the scales or "The Maiden s
PRAYER"
And If | stop, Mothers bound to call,
marjorie dear, you're not playing ,at all
Don't waste your time, but keep right on
OR you'll have to stay when the hour IS
gone"
Or maybe the maid looks in at me
And says: you're not playing as ! can
see.
just hustle along-Tve got work to do
And ] can't dust the room until you get
through"
Then when I've run over the scales and
things
Like "The Fairies Dance" or "The
Mountain Springs"
| find ] must sit there half hour more.
An hour is terribly long say
When you've got to practice and want to
play.
So slowly at times has the big hand
dropped
That | was sure that the clock had
stopped,
And Mother called down to me:
"Don't forget
A full hour please. It's not over yet.
Oh, when get big and have children, too,
There's one thing that | will never do
/ wont have brothers to tease the girls
And make them mad when they pull their
curls
And laugh at them when they've got to
stay
And practice their music an hour day
| won't have maid like the one we've got
That likes to boss you around lot,
And ] wont have a clock that can 20 so
slow
When it's practice time, cause hate

A Hard Problem to Solve.

The Republican State Convention as
sembles at Dover, today, with the old
Coleman du Pont Organization IN full
control 30 far as majority OF the dele
gates is concerned But Organization
leaders were bothered about the situa-
ton in Sussex county, where there is an
awkward interference with the complete
plans of the ruling power.
It was conceded this morning that
Colonel William d. Denney OF Dover
would be nominated FOR governor. and
that other slated candidates would go
through with easy sailing. excepting KEEP
resentative in Congress Caleb Rodney
Layton of Georgetown, who wasrepudiat-
ed at the Sussex Republican primaries,
Saturday afternoon. Layton's renomina-
ton, in accord with long precedent, may
be prevented by the party opposition to
him in his home county land the Organ
ization would hardly care-or dare-to
force him upon the ticket over a protest
from Sussex county Republicans, so plain
ly expressed.
How this tangle will be unravelled had
not been disclosed this morning. There
was talk of the Layton opposition con-
,enting to his denomination, content
TO have Inundated him by reputation
at the hands of the Republican voters OF
his home county. There is even a sug-
gestion that he may be satisfied with
denomination contingent upon his retire.
ment from the ticket and the substitution
of another candidate, more congenlal TO
Sussex Republicans. And there was talk
of the presentation, by the Sussex Re
publican caucus. of the name of Colonel
Robert G. Houston of Georgetown as the
candidate of Sussex county for the Con-
gress nomination. But nothing WAS defi-
nitely in sight.
Dispatches to later editions OF Every
Evening may reveal the real situation.
But in the early morning hours it was not
apparent how the Organization would be
able to extricate itself from what may
prove a serious dilemma.

FEW DOWNS, MANY UPS.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics of the
Department of Labor keeps so full of
figures that il must be relief TO that
bureau to get some of them off its chest.
To some peeple the figures it hands out
may be interesting, but most of those
figures seem to relate to living costs, and
they are generally about as cheerful as
funeral sermon. Some of those figures
made their appearance in yesterdays
papers, and at first glance had very prom
ising appearance. They declared there
had been q fall of the large amount OF
215 per cent in July. That sounded all
right, but the bureau took all the hope
and pleasure out of it by adding: But
costs in the aggregate ere 20 per cent
higher than a year ago
Now, wouldn't that jar your But the
bureau goes even further and wants you
to know that the decrease in July from
June did not apply TO all commodities.
Fuel and lighting materials continued up
ward, with ap increase Of nearly z y per
cent. Farm products, food and clothing
led in lowering the price level for July.
The decrease for farm products was 20
per cent; for food nearly per cent, and
for clothing about 5l5 per cent. For the
year running from July 1919, to July, 1920
food articles increased 24.1 per cent,
cloths and clothing l24 per cent and fuel
and lighting 47.4 per cent And the bureau
might have added rents jumped up from
so to 100 per cent and are still jumping.
So, there you are. A slight fall for
one summer month counts for nothing
alongside the big raises of the other
months. The man with market basket
finds that while a few things he needs
are . couple of cents cheaper than they
were the week before, most of the articles
he must have are from a nickel to a dime
higher. Baltimore American.

TIRED OF GUSH.

eff campsigners this year are wise,
says the Rochester Post, '.they will make
the keynote Of their speaking and writing
sincerity The people are tired OF gush.
They are tired OF holier-than-thou state
ments. of specious arguments that dodge
the real questions OF Importance. No
body understands all of this better than
the newspaper people, perhaps, for they
hear the complaints of the masses.
The Post goes on to say that the can
ddates are men of character, OF good
achievement, and they will promise on q
record of promises kept The record OF
the opposing parties is plain to all who
make a business of keeping informed.
The people will listen to reason, they
may have to listen to unreason, but they
will revolt against it. The speaker who
firmly believes what he says who says
this clearly and boldly; who supports his
party and candidate because he thinks he
can bring to others his own CONVICTION
that they are best deserving OF support,
will get results. The other sort Will not.
Mere party and partisan. routine speii,,
binding is futile. A new era III polit1cal
campaigning is demanded, and IT is to be
hoped it will come.
But it is too early in the campaign to
make predictions as TO what Will happen.
That which is most to be desired may be
thrown into the rubbish heap when men
become excited Campaigns take funny
turns as they proceed. We may even get
back to the torchlight procession, although
at this time it does not seem possible. we
NAV have to listen to the rankest sort OF
bombast, although it would seem that
the party indulging in it will become un-
popular. Everybody is declaring that we
must not resort to personalities, that II
is to be campaign free from scandal and
vituperation. But let us not be too certain
of what is going to happen heiore the
frosts of October ripen the nuts upon the
trees.--Columbu Dispatch.
