THURSDAY. JUNE 3, 1921.

The wages of railroad employ
ees have been cut 400 million dol
lars by the United States railroad
labor board. And now the inter
state commerce commission is said
to be discussing" proposed re-
vision of freight rates. Thousands
oil sidtracks in the country are
filled with empty freight cars and
passenger trains are running with
practically empty coaches. May
this condition continue until the
public is given relief from the
railroad profiteering.
1t is discreditable to the Gen
eral Assembly of South Carolina
that the alumnae association of
Winthrop college finds it neces-
sary to solicit funds with which to
complete the Student building at
the institution. A little less hot
air and more effort to help the
college by those in high official
position would make a stronger
appeal to the informed public. :
Other newspapers published in
the South may say what they
please about it or pass the matter
in silence as they prefer, but Tbs
Times objects to the action of the
American Legion in selecting thv
3Oth of May as a national memo
rial day to honor the memory of
the American soldiers who fell in
the World war. May 30th is
the day observed throughout tn.
North as memorial day for the
soldiers of the Union armies that
overcame the South in the '6Os.
There has been more hatred dis.
played for and i'll feeling engen-
dered toward the South by speak
ers and newspapers in the North
on the 30th of May than on any
other day in the year. No South
ern man who will stop to think
OF what has been happening in the
North on May 30th for the last
40 years and more will find much
pleasure in paying tribute to the
World war dead at the same time
and in many instances in coope-
ration with those who are never so
happy as when the special day
rolls round for sillifying and mis-.
representing the soldiers Of ,be
South and the cause for which
they fought, There is good rea-
son why every American Legion
post in the South should object to
the 3Oth of May as national me-
mortal day for honoring the coun-
tly's World war dead.

M. P.'S LIFE NOT HAPPY
income 10 SO Small That They Mus,
Live CheapIy


London, March ga member Of
Parliament's life is not happy one
In fact, various M. P.'s gathered
themselves together into a select
committee In order to prove just how
unhappy a life~they led. The general
grievance of these men who repre-
sent constituencies is the same as
that of the men who represent moth.
ing-lack of cash. The salary Of a
member of parliament is 400 pounds
a year-or about $1,000. which, It il
claimed, does not lift them above
the ordinary worries of the kitchen
M. P.'s pointed out that their in
comes only permitted them to travel
thirdclass on the railways and they
compared themselves to "Tarzan OF
the Apes" on account of the invar-
liable and unnecessary exercise they
got "straphanging" in the crowded
trains each day.
The upshot Of the whole investiga-
ton was that the following recon-
mendations are to be made:
No change in M. P.'s salaries, but
that the 400 pounds should be re-
garded as expenses and therefore not
subject to income tax, which is very
heavy in England.
That M. P.'s should have free first
class travel between London and
their constituencies. Free postage or
parliamentary letters. This probably
constitutes the most human document
that has ever appeared In the guise
of a White Paper.
