paid $3.50. These are Doctor MulIer's
figures.
He points on. that the ten year
period has resulted in overcoming to
some degree the equality of the COM
the industrials, despite their greater
hazard, have got the best of it. They
pay SO much higher rent that people
are willing to take chance TO get the
greater return.
Not until this analysis was made by
DIR. Muller were any definite figures
available on just what handicap was
faced by the railroads in getting the
use of money
The transportation act limits the
amount of dividends which railroads
can pay to per cent. This Irritation
DR.. Muller regards as unfair as. he
claims. it places the railroads at dis
advantage in comparison with the in
dustrials in obtaining the use of mon
ey which they need to make improve
ments, buy cars. extend their lines and
develop generally.
The lesson to be drawn from DR..
Muller's analysis seems to be that the
investor can take his choice between
a solid railroad Investment in which
the property that secures his loan is
practically certain to remaining intact
because it is necessary public utiI-
ity. but which, under existing laws,
cannot pay more than 6 per cent; or
an industrial investment which, if all
goes well, will pay perhaps twice as
much as the railroad, but which may
succumb to commercial disaster.

HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State Journal

BONNIE JEANE:. Your attitude
is entirely wrong. 1 do not condemn
you and there are lot of people VINO
would not. There is only one thing
for you to do and that is to consult a
doctor here in town and ask him what
you had better do. Tell him in the
first place how little money you are
making. Altho your illness is OF
very serious nature, it is not hopeless
by any means. The more time you
waste, however, in getting treatment,
the more critical your condition will
become. You probably feel like an
isolated case while in reality the doc
tor will tell you that he has handled
many problems like yours before. he
will not talk about your case to others
because it would be contrary to the
laws of his profession.
Keep on trusting, little girl. Don't
be a gutter now. If you will do as
say I feel confident that health and
happiness are ahead of you. No other
course would be fair to the people
with whom you live.
Surely you believe in the immortal
soul. and so believing how can you
away from suffering in this life, but I
am confident an unhappy condition
would follow you into the next until
you faced your problem and con-
quered it.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: About a
year ago I was going with young
lady who was taken sick and confined
to her bed seven weeks. During that
time I loaned her three books. They
We're books which I valued very highly
and two of them were gifts to me.
After she recovered she seemed to lose
in me ana finally wouldn't
let me come any more. I am very
anxious to get back my books Do
you think it would be all right for me
to write her a note and ask her to
send them to me or let me come and
get them? TOM
1t would be all right to write the
note you have mentioned, or to call
at the girls home without writing
and ask for the books which were
merely loaned to her.

national associations. but primarily
due to the consensus of opinion as to
certain well-defined evils growing out
of our individualistic institutions.
The mass of constructive laws OF this
character which have permeated most
of the states. is a tribute to the hu-
name spirit of the people and their
legislators. and the progressive ten
deney on the part of the courts in up
holding the constitutionalty OF such
laws demonstrates that they, too. have
not escaped the general spirit of the
times. Courts which once declared
certain laws of this kind unconstitu-
tional have since reversed themselves
with the result that few. if any. we'll
drafted laws covering the subjects
enumerated need longer fear nullifi-
cation at the hands of the courts.
The other class Of laws which have
suffered a far different fate at the
hands OF the courts. because generally
held to be unconstitutional. are those
designed to place the workers in a
position where they can correct evils
by their militant power rather than
seeking their correction at the hands
of the state. They aim to endow IN
official and private groups with the
equivalent of sovereign power by pIac-
ing them in a position where they car
curtail freedom Of contract. They
would transfer to organized minori-
ties the power and authority to cor
rect abuses which authorized govern
ment should correct.
OF such nature are laws legalizing
combinations which have for their
purpose the exclusion of non-union
men or the open shop employer in or
der to give greater power to unions.
They include restrictions on the is
suance of iujunctions in labor dis
putes; exemptions from the antitrust
laws; legalization of picketing; appro-
priation bills coupled with a proviso
that the fund so appropriated shall
not be utilized to enforce certain laws
against labor organizations; laws re-
quiring that public printing shall bear
the union label or that none but union
men be employed on public work:
laws forbidding discrimination against
a person who has participated in a
strike; and laws forbidding public
bureaus TO furnish en-
ployes to a concern on strike.
Legislation designed to place the
regulation of private contract in the
hands of private organizations has
been uniformly condemned by the
courts, while legislation involving the
exercise of sovereign power by the
state to correct the abuses of indus
trial contracts has been generally sus-
tanned. The courts are seeking to !
keep abreast of the times by uphold |
ing legislative acts designed to correct |
definite industrial abuses. but they
have not been ready TO transfer this |
power and responsibility from the |
state to private societies. If liberty |
IS TO be restricted it must be restrict
ed by law. Abuses are not to be |
by a reversion to some new
kind of tyranny or new mode OF COM
bat.

SOMEONE 10 TALK TO.

While I was living the life of boy
used to think of the many strange
things that seemed to crop out so
often in this little world of ours.
And now that I have had the OPP
portunity to taste much of the food
of the world, still think of these
same strange things-tho they seem
strange in a different way.
My greatest longing then was to find
someone to talk to. That is my great
est longing now!
The earth has to have its soil turned
over and over in order properly to
produce. 1 believe it is the same with
human beings. They must have some
one to talk to often in order to give
to their lives richness and strength.
1 always keep rather shy of secre-
tive people. Somehow they seem to be
keeping back something that they do
not desire should see the light
On the other hand. 1 like open
minded people who sort of slide
smoothly into my own experience and
become vital part of my own per-
sonality.

just comeTfrom the west where he had
made his home for many years. He
had come back to visit his old Mother.

There are times when we have to
