EDITORIAL OPINION

comparisons In both cases being
made with October, 1920. The fur
ther statement that expenses were
cut twenty-four per cent. is sug-
gesdve OF reduced service and heavy
cuts in maintenance charges
The railroad situation is not vet
satisfactory from any point Of view.
Passengers and shippers want lower
rates and better service, and in order
10 meet these reasonable demands
It is necessary to reduce the costs of
operation. Economies effected AT the
expense OF the properties are detri-
mental to the interests Of the public
and the owners of the roads. Yet
under present conditions the railroad
managers are forced into a policy
OF neglected maintenance. The real
remedy is IN the abolition OF work
ing rules which put n premium
upon inehiciency in labor and in the
adoption Of wage schedules based on
present conditions
The country is weary Of paying ex-
cessive wages and putting up with
inadequate facilities for the sole
purpose of enabling railroad workers
to draw compensation above the fair
market rate for labor.

The HeatyS Scope
(From The New York Tribune.)

The four-power Pacific treaty ac-
complishes several things. II ends
the Anglo-Japanese alliance. and
thus pleases not only this country
but Canada. Australia. New Zealand
and South Africa. To have termin-
ated this dual compact without Of
tense TO either Japan or Great
Britain is a diplomatic achievement
Of great Importance.
The tire" y also stabilizes the situ-
alton in the Far East so far as the
island possessions OF the four sigma
tories are concerned. It only indi-
rectly deals with China, for China
Is a mainland Asiatic power. Yet It
must help in promoting other Far
Eastern settlements in which China
is concerned. The four-power treaty
and the Root resolutions, also
adopted by the conference. are the
basis for a concert concerning
eastern Asia and in the Pacific area
generally which will remove most Of
the causes of international dissen-
sion and friction there.
These are the immediate contri-
buttons to world peace. which the
Washington conference has made.
II is making other contributions.
The four-power treaty embodies the
principle OF friendly cooperation
among the great powers and demon
strates that America is ready, as she
always has been, to accept the obli-
cations entailed by common inter
national action. At Paris Mr.. VII

And now we find the Wilsonian
papers citing prominent railroad
men as responsible for the disas-

Of railroads. II Is true That these men
served during this calamitous regime,
but the country very distinctly re-
calls the conditions surrounding
their service. Without exception they
were men who were simply com

TO the performing OF certain func-

mands regardless Of their own jude-
ment or wishes. McAdoo issued Nis
orders and these men carried them
out. Never before in the history OF
free country was there a more
ruthless or arbitrary perversion of
power and never was public money
more shamefully scattered for the
qualification of a personal political
ambition than during McAdoo's rule

Withholding on his part of the mil
lions he held in trust As well blame
the hapless galley slaves Who, work

things which his brain worked out
and which were done under the lash
OF his authority and power.
