Made Its Own Bed.

~ONGRESS should bear in mind that every
T. street railway franchise granted in this Dis
trict provided for scent fare and six tickets Tor
IS cents with, believe, but one exception Zach
of the thirty franchises contains that clause The
holders of these franchises sought them with this
provision. In that day the cost of transporting
passenger per mile was greater than now, so great
have been the increase of operating facilities.
When the Washington Traction and Electric
bought up all these suburban lines, they were op-
Grated at this rate of fare. When the Washington
Railway and Electric took the w. T. & E.. it
was with this same fare restriction The w. K q
E. franchise dated June 5, 1900 expressly PROVIDED
this rate of fare and definitely repealed the Wash
ington and Great Falls Electric Railway privilege
of 1o-cent fare. The W. R. & E. sought this
franchise. 1t was drawn to suit it. 1t made its
bed.
The principal changes since then causing a dill
ference in the cost of street railway operation are
increase in price of materials, now on the down
grade and materially below the peak, and the in
crease in the cost Of labor also, now on the de-
crease 1t is not secret that this railway expects
to cut wages when its labor contract expires: its
history supports this AS to revenues, the popua-
ton of the District has increased from about 27sooo
in 1900 to nearly 100000 in 1920 There have been
very great improvements in equipment and operat-
ing facilities the size of cars electric motors and
transmission which if taken advantage of would
have greatly reduced carrying costs per passenger
per mile and have about balanced increased operat-
ing costs
The w. R. & E. is entitled to sympathy.
What it is it is of its own will 1t is monument
of bad management based upon frenzied finance.
1t has no claim Upon the public than any
other bad investment If it cannot operate at the
rate of fare measured by the differences outlined
above, that is its fault, the result Of its own
acts for which it alone is responsible. The public
is entitled lower fares and if this compels its hnan
cia reorganization at vastly less capitalization it
will then have but the experience of hundreds of
other public service corporations that have under
taken like wild-eyed financing at public expense.

British-Japanese Treaty.

REAT Britain will either her treaty
Il with Japan, or she will not The final de-
cision will be postponed few months, it will
not. Her dominions are opposed to the treaty, or
they favor it, oppose, but others favor. But
in any event. the treaty will contain nothing Of
fensive to the United States; to this both gov
ernments said to be in agreement and there is
contradiction.
There have not been many treaties which have
been published in full that knowingly Of
fensive to other friendly powers. The present
British Japanese treaty carefully guarded against
this to this country. 1t is quite certain this
newal will be even more guarded and be made
wholly unobjectionable to the United States. That
it will be renewed is as certain be, and it
will be but another evidence of Japan's pride in
sociation.
AS fact all the reasons which made such
treaty of value to Great Britain have disappeared
Originally it relieved her of any obligation need
of keeping considerable naval force in her Far
Eastern waters and allowed the policy of cen
tralized home feet. Then Germany had her inter-
ests in China and the South Pacific and large
fleet, the second in power in the world Then
Russia had a fleet and her domain reached to touch
that of the British. Both their home ports were
across the way from Great Britain Now Japan is
the one supreme power of that vast region. She
and Great Britain need but be friendly to protect
themselves from each other. Since both are agreed
to except the United States there is no other
power which can possibly interfere with either.
Nor does Great Britain need the centralized home
feet to watch the Kiel Canal and the exit from the
Baltic. There are now fleets hidden there to
frighten her soul and keep her naval force within
striking distance.
However, the treaty may serve as the outward
evidence of the inward mutual goodwill Japan
wants 1t as sort of hallmark of her power and
importance. Great Britain has reason to care.
neither one way the other, save as her sons
and daughters ardenty dislike the Japanese If
they are moihed, the British can well afford to
feed the pride of Japan and soothe her sensibites

Iron and Steel Prices.

The yielding of iron and steel
prices, resulting in appreciably
lower quotations than prevailed a
year ago, has continued. Announce
ment of further reductions by the
principal producer has been expect
ed in some quarters. The meeting
of competition as it appears is lead.
ing to a gradual readjustment Of
the market. and a number of addi-
tional recessions are disclosed this
week. In general. The Iron Age re-
ports, wage revisions tend To keen
pace with the changes in prices. ana
indications point to an extensjon
of the downward movement during
the next few months. The seIline
of material by manufacturing con-
sumers has persisted. and orders 20
ing to mills are estimated as rem
-esenting not more than 20 per cent
OF capacity. An encouraging fea-
ture, on the other hand. is the 70.

A National Insurance Franchise.

WIHEN Congress passes the McFadden-Ken-
w yon farm credit insurance measure it will

OF forty-eght States in this most important eco

Pany with the right to do business in all the States
without meeting hindrance the prejudice of local
politics.
1t will do more than this in creating the first
great insurance corporation that will be in truth
mutual, whose control will actually rest with the
policyhoders The great need of this as stabilizer
OF insurance is abundantly provided in the scandals
disclosed by the Untermyer investigation which
are but piece with conditions disclosed by prev
louS Investigations. 1t is evident that those who
control these great financial institutions with their
hundreds of millions of capital have forgotten moth

OF financial decency in the moral obligation as to
trust funds.
