INTELLECTUAL BUT NOT PRACTICAL.

ONE OF the FIRST acts OF the sixteenth meeting OF the
" council OF the League Of Nations now in session at
Geneva, was the appointment of committee OF twelve
on intellectual cooperation"
intellectually has been the incubus Of the League Of
Nations idea from It's very inception
Its orignators submerged in their worship OF
an intellectual ideal that they had no thought for the
practical problems confronting the world.
The appointment Of the new committee will do no
harm and will render the league no less nnocuous than

Better Service With
adequate Returns

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 1s.-
Samuel NJ. FELTON,. President OF the
Chicago Great Western Railroad
Company, speaking for Western
roads, testifying before the inter-
state Commerce Commission as to
the situation in that territory, said
in part:
The Western Railways, in com.
mon with those Of the rest Of rkhe
country, have suffered during the
last year a decline Of traffic which
occurred with very great rapidity
and was entirely unprecedented
J Relatively the greatest decline in
freight traffic on the railways Of the
entire country which ever occurred
before was in 1884, when it was
1880 per cent. In the first ten
months OF 1921. however, tho de-
cline In the freight business Of the
railways Of the entire country was
2S per cent.
The statistics OF the Interstate
Commerce Commission show that
the decline of freight business on
the Western Railways was relative
ly as great as on all the railways
and that they suffered a relatively
greater decline in passenger busI-
ness.
Once a railway is actually in op-
Grafton there are certain operating
expenses which It is practically i'm
possible to reduce substantially no
matter how much the traffic may de-
cline. Most OF the physical property
OF railway lies out OF doors where
IL Is exposed to the elements and.
regardless Of the amount of traffic
handled, will seriously and rapidly
deterionate unless the normal
amount Of maintenance work is
done upon IL.
The western lines in the first ten
months Of 1921 reduced their ex-
penditures for maintenance OF way
30.S per cent, and their expenditures
for maintenance Of equipment 1871
per cent.
A large part OF these reductions
Of expenses did not represent real
economies. but was the result Of the
deferring Of maintenance work,
which sooner or later must be done
The carrying out OF full normal
programs for tie and rail renewals
and similar items can be postponed
for a period without affecting safety
in operation. Always however, this
deferring OF maintenance work is
expensive and results in the end in
! greater cost before the properties
are restored TO their former condi-
tion.
Efficiency of manaRement must be
tested by results and railroad execu-
tives have a right to demand that II
be so tested The record Of the
American railroads for the past 90
years is record Of progressive ef.
fciency through which billions ol
