duce, Says Ashton, Citing
Many Specific Examples

Ii Is not through railroad wages
alone that the railroads are seeking
economies to meet the present emer-
gency, r. H. Ashton, president of the
American Railway Association, empha-
sizes in the current issue of American
Railroads, official publication of the
Association OF Railway Executives. A
number of specific examples are cited
to show how the different roads are
striving to save in such items as coal,
reduction of personnel, accounting
methods, reducing stocks, consolidation
of divisions, service savings, curtail-
nent of maintenance, increasing daily
car movements and train loads, etc.
SEVER since the return to private
ownership" says Mr.. Ashton, "the
railroads have been making economies
and working for increased efficiency in
every possible direction. While the net
earnings made during 1920 were dis
appointing they would have been very
much smaller, and the deficits of the
present time would have been very
much greater, If it had not been for
the great increase in efficiency of oper-
alton for 1920, as shown by Interstate
Commerce Commission reports.

against the railroads that the railroads
are wasting billion dollars year by
mismane cement. The largest item of
these estimated possible savings is that
Of $272, 100000 to be saved by modern
izing locomotives but no tangible evil
dence was introduced with this esti-
mate as to whether it is dependable, or
whether it is only a guess.
There are about $4,000 locomotives
in the United States. Even the Oldest
of these so-called modern devices have
been available in practical form for
only about ten years. and others for
shorter periods, In this apparently
brief time $4,000 locomotives have
been equipped with superheaters, 49,
600 with brick arches, $4,000 with au-
tomato fire doors and $4,000 with
power reverse gears. In no other pc
riod have steam locomotives and the
service rendered by them been made
as large in the same length of time as
they have been in the United States
in the last ten years.
"But such improvements require
large amounts of new capital. For in
stance, let US say, it is an economy to
buy high-power locomotives which will
haul longer freight trains. In order
to get this economy it may be neces-
sary to build new round houses, larger
turn tables, enlarged coal facilities
greater erection pits for repair work
longer sidings for these trains to pass
on, more extensive yards for them to
be made up in and broken again, larger
terminals and longer platforms.
"New capital can be raised only II
net operating income is earned to pay
return upon it. An examination OF
the use made by the railroads of their
funds available for capital improve
ments during 1920 reveals that new
capital has been almost wholly ex-
pended upon additions and betterments
which, in one way or another, would
Gromote the movement of cars and
thereby increase the efficiency and
economy of operations"

II, as is hoped, the Germans accept
these demands, 1t will clearly be ad-
vantageous to the Allied governments
to encourages the srecuperaticn of Ger
many's export trade,s so the amount of
export levy may rapidly increase, thus
speeding the issue of bonds and making
them more attractive in world security
markets because of the increased guar
anty behind them.
View of Manufacturers
Whether manufacturers In Allied
countries, competing with Germans,
will finally BIO pleased by the results
of the stimulus given German export
trade by these demands remains TO be
seen, but in the interest of the revival
of prosperity throughout the world
there is no doubt that tbs hoped for
acceptance of these terms would be of
enormous benefit.
Thsre is also some indication of q
likelihood of settlement Of the British
coal miners strike The railroads have
settled their claims on the government
and have made considerable progress in
negotiations with workers in anticipa-
ton of the return of the lines to pri-
vate control in August.
Thus the general sentiment here is
distinctly more hopeful. This situation
is assisted by the reduction in redis-
count rates by Federal Reserve banks
in the United States and the conse-
quent hope of lower bank rate here.
Trade Indications point to better

strife could be pushed into the back

 "It consits of box, constructed of wood and about four feet in length, in which gravel and eyed eggs are plac- ed in alternate layers. The box is de- posted in the bed of shallaw strear in hole previously dug to receive it. By mechnical device the upper DOT tion of the box is lifted and the gravel and eggs remain. It is practically identical with the process by which salmon use the gravel for secreting their eggs after propagation, with the important advantage that eggs in his instance are all fertilized and are not dependent upon the hit and miss methods of nature.
 "FOr two months the patrol steam CT Givenchy has been distributing these boxes between the north end of Vancouver Island and Prince Rupert. The waters selected for testing the experiment were streams flowing in to McLauglin Lake, Tinkey Lake, Holmes Lake Cat Captain Cove), Wolf Lake and Tuno Lake.

BLUE LAWS NOT WANTED NOR
 NEEDED

There should be no place in sunny California for the flat foot, the son. bre garb and the gloomy countenance of the blue law apostle. He is killer of joy, vulture of happiness, a des- troyer of innocent pleasure. Where ever he goes even flowers droop their heads, lambkins cease to skip and lit tie children are afraid to play. He banishes laughter from the human race and condemns it to sit with scan- dal as it's only recreation.
 Blue laws were not born under blue skies and have no place beneath them. They come from lands where days are short and nights are long, and where there is not life but merely a dull and drab existence. Men and women living under such harsh and unkind conditions are naturally sombre. They are sorry for themselves and for oth- CTS and their sorrow takes the form of trying to make things even more sor- rowful. They are cheered only by sad music, by songs of woe and mour ful dirges. Themselves devoid of mirth, they would forbid it in others. is enjoyed. Their creed is not for normal healthy humans but for sad souls that look upon life as something to be repressed, restrained, restricted.
 As regulations for Laplanders in the frazen North the blue laws would be ideal if they were necessary. Even in that region they would be unwel- come in the months of sunshine.
 Healthy men and women delight in healthy pleasures, and they are healthy because they indulge in them. Wherever the life force is strong men and women want to open the windows and the doors and let in the sunshine and fresh air. They must walk abroad nor do they regulate their walking by any other calendar than that written in blue skies and green fields. They do not censure the Greater for hav- ing made nature so beautiful, but ac- cepting His judment go forth to wor- ship at it's fragrant shrine.
 Californians are sun WOrshippers and refuse to stay indoors drawing the blinds and given themselves over to an orgy of gloom.
 Californians are pleasure-loving and refuse to be sad at the behest of blue law apostles. We love to dance and sing and make joyful noise, and we do all these things because they are the necessities of our nature.
 California is the playground of America, the garden of the world, and we refuse to let that garden become a wilderness, or to close it up during certain hours or on certain days in order to please those whose only means of getting up to think as they think is to compelling us to do as they do.
 Blue laws do not make people mor- al. There are more secret sins, as there is always more hypocrisy wher- ever blue laws have cast their blight.
 Better shut the door on Gloom with his armful of blue laws,-San Fran cisco Bulletin.
