Helping End Controversy.

1t was an engaging picture present
ed by Fred C. Croxton, director of the
Council Of Social Agencies Of Column
bus. Ohio, in his address at the BAN
quet of the Monday Evening Club,
when he told how the work OF such
agencies may remove many problems
from the field of controversy.
Take the question of child labor. It
IS not fair to line up employers and
the speaker declared, because it has
been proved by the work of the coun-
Gil that to approach the subject as a
community problem takes it out of the
field Of controversy.
Argue with man about his busi-
ness, and he is very apt to believe he
knows a great deal more. about it than
you do. But tell him that the educa-
tional work Of the city Is being upset
by his employing children, and demon
strate to him just how this is true,
and he will listen to you. t
Take the problem Of proper working
conditions. There. again. the human
element enters largely Tell man his
workrooms are not what they should
be. he may resent it. But get him in
terested in the matter of better air
and better light from the standpoint
of public health and the matter is at
once taken out Of controversy.
This is sound psychology, as well as
wholesome social welfare work. 1t
points the way to unlimited good, not
only in the field Of social work, but in
that larger field which comprises the
life and work Of all men. The world
has seen too much Of anger, hate and
controversy. Every method that points
toward peace and harmony should be
welcomed with outstretched hands.

The Treaties and the Senate.

Discussion Of the treaties growing
out of the armament conference has
begun in the Senate. and the country
Is interested. The pacts are recognized
as Of great Importance They are en-.
titled to full debate, and the Senate
rules guarantee that.
But because Of the Importance Of
the pacts and the liberality Of the
rules. the debate should be fair and di-
rected to the point. Anything re-
senbling or suggesting a fflibuster
ought not to be introduced.
The country wants action, and time,
legitimately employed, will be neces-
sary to bring action. The number Of
the pacts shows that much is involved,
and that the negotiators proceeded
with care in their work.
Politics. in the everyday sense. did
not enter into the negotiations. Mr..
Lodge, the republican leader Of the
Senate, and Mr.. Underwood, the demo-
cratic leader, were among the nego-
tiators, signed the pacts, and are
standing together in support Of the
Presidents request for ratification.
Ratification will not be, or be claim
able as, a republican triumph, nor will
rejection be, or be claimable as, re-
publican defeat.
Sentiment in the country loudly ap-
plauded the calling Of the armament
conference. as loudly applauded Secre-
fary Huohas' oop5ucf Cf tho copfor-
erice business. and as loudly applauded
the results of the conference when
they were announced. The appeal to
the Senate for ratification, therefore, is
based upon sentiment that has three

Russia, the Worlds Problem.

All the other problems which trou-
bic a problem-inflicted world today
sink into comparative insignificance
beside the problem Of Russia. The his
tory of mankind does not contain rec.
ord of a catastrophe so appalling. 1t
Is civilizations, supreme disaster,
dwarfing every other disaster Of mod
whelming that the mind refuses to
grasp it. The world war itself, most
sanguinary Of all conflicts which have
REDEEMED this planet, was less horrible.
Not delirium, nor nightmare, nor the
madness of great genius ever conjured
a thing SO terrible as the actual thing
that today is Russia. !.
To mitigate this horror, to meet and
discharge the obligations of humanity,
the world does almost nothing. Her
bert Hoover's relief organization, with
funds contributed privately in this
country and voted by Congress, is
keeping a few millions alive. 1t is a
big work, measured by ordinary
standards. Measured by the neeessi-
ties Of the situation 1t is a puny effort.
Nowhere else is any worth while effort
being made at all.
The requirements Of the Russian
situation could be met only by the CO.
ordinated craftsmanship Of the world.
but world statesmanship apparently
has broken down. It concerns itself
with plans for Russian trade and the
collection Of czarist debts. and quib-
bles over the niceties Of intercourse

Russian people are. perishing. The

To say that the rest Of the world
has no right to interfere In the in.
ternal affairs Of Russia IL as ridiculous
as 1t Is cruel. It is just al much the
worlds business to save Russia from
the bolshevists as It was to save Bel
gium from the Germans. The soviet
regime at Moscow is not government
chosen by the Russian people, and has
no title to respect as such. The Rus:
sian people merely endure it, as an
affiiction sent by God. and because
they cannot help themselves And be-
cause. they are helpless. the rest Of
the world withholds help, =" :
From this day on the saving Of Rus.

Every other problem ought to be made
secondary until a solution for this
problem is found. The economic re-
construction Of Europe" can wait un-
til forty millions Of unoffending men
and women and children are rescued
from starvation. There is food enough
to spare in the world to carry the
Russian people through until they can
sow and harvest another crop. Thou
sands of ships for the transportation
Of that food now are lying idle. There
is force enough at hand. or can be
quickly organized, to prevent Trot-
sky's red army from interfering with
its distribution. And this being true.

falling to save Russia?

Supreme Court on Railroads.

ftdIlTOdQS Will rest easier iO" slhal
the Supreme Court has said that the
transportation act Of 1920 is constitu-
tional, and that the states have no
right to break down or injure. inter-
traffic rules and rates. The decision
upholds the federal Interstate Com
merce Commission. as the chief au-
thority on rates. The argument Of the
intrastaters that q supreme federal In
terstate Commerce Commission would
exercise unified control over interstate
and intrastate commerce Is answered
by the court when it says that the con-
troll should be unified only-so far as
will maintain efficient regulation Of
interstate commerce under the para
mount power Of Congress.
The decision will make for better
administration of the railroads and a
sense of greater security as to their
the return of national prosperity be-
cause of the vast fund of capital in
vested in railroad obligations and the
vast structure of credit which rests
on those obligations. To a large ex-
tent interest on savings accounts and
life insurance and thousand and one
other things are dependent on rail-
road earnings. and practically every
form of business in the United States
is dependent on railroad activity, or
railroad carrying efficiency. Equip
ment plants, steel plants and an un-
namable list Of other plants live on
railroad purchases. They cannot pros
per, give employment to men and pay
interest and dividends to their in
vestors II the railroads are down and
out.
The railroad is "key industry" con-
sidered only as an industry. Without
it land commerce would be blocked
and that muIti-angled, multi-shaped
all.pervading, thing we call business
would stop short and the freesoup.
house queues Of idle men and troops
of hungry women and children would
come upon the stage.
With the national. Interstate Com
merce Commission often standing on
the neck Of: the railroads. and with
the separate and Independent COM
merce commissions of something like
forty-eight states defying the rules of
the I. G. C. so far as related to traffic
within their state boundaries, and each
struggling to get its own particular
hold on the neck of the railroads, the
rails" have been in sorry mess, and
the variety of rates and rules have
slowed up or demoralized traffic and
turned the hair of railroad executives
white.
AS the railroad situation clears up
there will probably follow a lengthen-
ing Of railroad mileage and expansion
of traffic; facilities. The credit Of rail-
roads will improve, and they will be
able to borrow. money for improve
ments and extensions. Their credit
has been at low ebb. and there has
been much uncertainty as to their
ability to meet their obligations. They
have had no surplus for betterment
work. and they have been able to bor-
row money only at cut-throat rates OF
