RATES LOWER WHEN
COSTS COME DOWN.


In answer to the demand that rail-
road rates shall be lowered to con-
form with the price of other things,
the railroad executives reply that
when wages decline then they can re-
~duce rates. They point to the con-
dition of the roads and the small
of operation, and say that the system
of over time adopted by the govern
ment during the war, the short hours
of work and the general arrangement
of the systems during government
control has resulte din inefficiency
that it will take much time to over
come
The war certainly disarranged in
dustry, and it will take a long time
to straighten it out and get it on a
working basis, in line with the de-
cline of everything else, and the coun-
try will look forward with hope to
a cut in the railroad rates which en-
ter so largely into the cost of living.
When it costs more to transport a
ton of coal or ton of hay to Wilson
that the coal mine owner receives for
it at the time, and the farmer re-
ceives in Ohio, it is about time for
some plan to be provided which will
adjust this vast difference.

" omen Carry Law
School Fight to
Columbia Board
City Club Directors Request
University Trustees to
Admit Feminine Students
to Local Legal College

The Women's City Club has renewed
the campaign for the admission Of
women students to the Columbia r1ni-
versity Law School. Tho attack this
time is from new angle. No longer
do the women Of the city appeal to the
Law School faculty, but, going over
their unsva pathetic heads, they make
their plea directly to the trustees Of
tho university. The admission Of
women to the Law School can be
achieved by vote Of its faculty, but ii
also can be brought about by action Of
the university trustees. and this the
women are now asking.
The resolution adopted at the last
board meeting OF the Women's City
Club follows:
Whereas it is important to the
progress Of women and to the good OF
the state that those women who desire
to prepare themselves for entrance to
the bar should have the same oppor-
tunity that men have to obtain the
best kind of legal training; and
Whereas the Law School Of Colum-
bia University occupies q peculiarly
high position among the law schools
of New York State; and
Whereas the principle of equal op-
portunities for men and women is al
ready recognized in every department.
of Columbia University with the single
exception Of the Law School, and nc
tenable reason is apparent, or has been
assigned, for this exception; therefore
"Be it resolved. That the Women's
City Club of New York earnestly re-
guests the board Of trustees Of Colum-
bia University to open the Columbia
Law School to women on equal terms
with men,"
President Butler of Columbia Uni.
versity and many of the trustees are
said to be in favor Of the admission OF
women to the Law School. Last win
ter the faculty of Barnard College pc
titioned the law faculty to admits
women. The outcome was a curt note
from the Law School saying that it
would be "prcjudicial to the school" ia
admit women students.
