OIL AND TROUBLED WATERS

The old saying about pouring oil on
the troubled waters doesn't seem to
fl into this oil using generation. In
deed it is becoming evident that the
waters are being troubled by the mad
scramble for the oil. of which there
seems to be none to use in smoothing
for incendiary purposes.
Apparently in no other way may
one account for the strange attitude
of Panama. in view of the fact that
she should entertain friendly feelings
for this country and heretofore has
had no occasion for antagonism
toward Costa Rica, other than the
boundary dispute which was submit
ted to arbitration. There is every
reason why Panama should accept
that award gracefully, and she ought
to know this country can do nothing
less than insist on maintaining stable
conditions in that part of the world.
Why. then. is she sullen and in
tractable? 1t is known that this coun-
try is seeking closer relations with
her neighbors to the South and it is
probable that she desires q share in
the Oil found there, a share honor
ably obtained Is it possible that for
eign countries are throwing trigs in
the way?

Wiping Out Rail Dividends
IN V Heraldl

In the Kennebec journal. published
at Augusta, Maine, the holder of ten
shares of stock in the Maine Central
Railroad has letter explaining what
it means to him to have the divi-
dends on his stock stopped to pay
war imitation wage scales. Among
other things he says:
Il read an article in your paper, a
little while ago about the expenses at
the Augusta station of the Maine
Central, showing how they had gone
up on account of shorter hours and
bigger wages over 1870 per cent. in
four years. Now l want to ask what
is the fairness and justice in more
than doubling wages and keeping
them up there and taking away every
cent OF dividends from the people who
put their good money into the rail-
road and own it?
Il worked and saved the $1,000 my
ten shares of stock cost me, and los
ing $50 year means q good deal to
me. 1t costs me just as much to live
as the man who works on the rail
road, and l ask you why he should
But 1T isn't merely the railroad
stockholders who suffer from the car
riers being flattened out under noun
tains of labor costs. There are D.
100000 railway employees in the
United States getting the war infla-
ton wages, but there are more than
lot, 100000 other people on whom
those war imitation charges fall The
four billions of dollars a year paid in
war imitation wages to the railroad
workers are a direct charge upon
every man, woman and child in the
country in the prices that are thus
added to general commodities to pay
the railroad payrolls. If those war in
f1ation railroad wages are billion
dollars year more than they ought
to be-and they are all of that-they
hit the average American family, in
which there are five persons. $50 Il
year. If they are two billion dollars
q year more than they ought to be
and directly and indirectly they may
be as much as that-they hit the av-
erage American family 500 a year
This is too heavy railroad load for
the American people to pack.
The war imitation railroad wages
must come down, whether stocllhold-
ers get or don't get their dividends
They must come down so that the
American transportation system can
have enough left over out of receipts
after paying wages to buy necessary
equipment, give good service and
properly maintain the properties.
They must come down so that where
freight rates are prohibitive of traffic
they can be reduced to make more
business. They must come down so
that the public's cost of living can
come down.
The war imitation wages must come
down because while they are wreck
ing the American railroad system.
they cannot wreck that American
railroad system without wrecking the
country and everybody in it.

But Ghandi, bitter enemy of the

filment of the party's platform

Senate and the Executive to the end
that the two houses and the two
branches might function as the Con-
etitution intended they should func-
ton.
For a man of Speaker Gillett's long
experience in public affairs to see the
members of Congress from his own
corner of the country mere cogs in
the Mann Ncndell machine, for a
man of his views and training to pre-
side day after day over a parlia-
mentafy body so lacking in leader
ship. and so subservient to the
''isms" of the hour must be morti-
flying and humilating experience.

assistance to the Administration that
he helped to elect than If he were

are more concerned about the well

Mr.. Gillett has an opportunity to

with congressman from other parts
of the country to release the House
from the Mann Mondell blight.
Speaker Gillett has the experience.
the acquaintanceship, the power and
the opportunity. He would find in
President Harding a leader and a

THE TAX RECOMMENDATIONS

The taxation policy outlined by the
new secretary Of the treasury is gen.
orally conceded to embody the con-
illusions of competent authorities ac-
quainted with the subject. It ex-
presses the results of careful study
OF all the complicated conditions. AS
was expected it recommends the re-
peal of the excess profits tax, which
is found not to yield the desired in
come and incapable of being fairly
imposed. The proposals do not favor
the sales tax as proposed by Senator
Smoot, but favor a procedure in re-
vision somewhat in the nature of
compromise between the recommen-
dations of Secretary Melons pre-
decessor and the proposed sales tax.
This appears to coincide with the
prevailing opinion in congress, which
seems to be afraid that the sales tax
would be unpopular. constant and
irritating reminder to the public, not
withstanding that is not, so far as
learned, the experience Canada has
had with it. The surtaxes are said
to have already passed the collection
point, having forced money into tax
exempt securities. The secretary
recommends the reimbursement of
these by a reduction in the rates and
abandonment of the nuisance" sales
taxes. The Recommendations are
meeting with favorable comment. -.

And kissed them and put them there.
