The Full Crew Law Burden

Full crew law repeal bills have
been presented in both the New York
and the New Jersey legislatures.
These bills seek to cut out an arbi-
trary excess cost saddled on railroad
operation. In New jersey the full
crew rule has added $620,0OO a year
70 the railroad wage account. In
New York it added S2,175,900 in
1921, a year Of reduced traffic. In
1920, when the volume of tonnage
was greater, the excess was nearly
$3,O00,OO0.
The full crew laws, which resu-
late in detail the size Of train crews.
add to rates. They trench on the
proper functions Of state railroad
and public service commissions,
which are competent to determine
whether trains are undermanned or
not. The Wiswall- Mastich bills at
Albany restore to the Public Service
commissioners power which they for
merly exercised. All requirements
Of safety in operation are thus met,
without throwing on the public the
cost Of paying the wages of unneeded
employees, who are really only sal
aried passengers.
Pennsylvania and Indiana had
full crew laws and repealed them
slissouri rejected full crew law by
popular referendum. In Massa-
causetts ting, size Of train crews is

Gypsy Lore Revival

TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: May ask you to be kind
enough to give publicity to the revival
Of tho Gypsy Lore Society and so help
us to bring it to the notice Of Ameri-
can scholars and Of the quite consider
able general public interested in the
gypsies, Of whom you have such q
wonderful variety in America?
Since the days of Charles Godfrey
Leland, your distinguished fellow coun-
tryman who was our first president,
gypsy research has been actively pros
ecuted In most countriesaof the world
by members of this soci.s y. but, oddly

Louisiana 8 Example

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: According to a recent news
paper report, Louisiana has no World
War soldiers or sailors out of employ
ment. This is surely noble example
to set the other fortyseven states. Not
flowery words alone count, but gener-
GUS and unselfsh deeds. With millions
Of others, l favor the war bonus to the
boys who brought back victory.

Justice Ali Around

Bone Of our bone and flesh of our
flesh, the young men Of America who
gathered behind the colors in war
time have and can have no interest
separab,e from the interest Of other
elements of the population. They
are the fathers of the future, the
inheritors of a great estate heaped
Zip for them by the labors Of the
past. They are or soon will be in
possession Of the country. Any in
Jury they do to it is an injury to
themselves. True friends Of the
soldiers will exhort them to take
broad views, not permitting them
selves to fall under narrow and un-
intelligent leadership.
They go to Congress, or organi-
nations representing them 60, with
plea for justice. When SOL
diers they received $50 a month.
while men who remained at home
had the benefit Of war wages. So
they say it is only fair to equalize
compensation. They ask for an ad-
ditional allowance of $50 for each
month they were in service. The
argument is strong.
But unfortunately the spokesmen
FOR the bonus, seeking justice for
themselves, seem to declare in the
same breath that they are not in
terested in justice for others and
not interested in the general wei
fare. Washington dispatches report
the bonus advocates as coldly saying
that how the money is raised Is not
their affair. They outline no plan
for raising the required revenue.
They are Indifferent TO unjust levies,
provided they get what they want.
This attitude is not only unfair but
against the welfare of the soldiers
as an integral part of the country.
Two wrongs never make a right,
Granted that justice was not done
IN 1918, it is no reason why injustice
should be done in 1922. The bonus
and the raising of the funds to pay
the bonus are problems indissolubly
linked.
Let the Legion submit its tax
plan. making sure it is not unjust
and will not defer that return of
full prosperity which in dollars and
cents means more to q soldier than
any gratuity he is likely to receive.
Destructive, prosperity postponing
tax proposals are in vogue at Wash
ington. Special interests scheme to
dodge their share of an obligation
which, SO far as it exists, is lien
against all Of Us.
President Harding suggests q
aales tax as one that will in the
first instance distribute the burden
evenly and at the same time bring
home to each the fact that he con-
tributes, and will not further rife
the pockets Of the thrifty, whose
savings are indispensable for bust
/ ness use if enterprise is not to be
/ hobbled.
Here is a tangible proposal look
ing to justice-justice in the present
tense. What do the soldiers say Of
it? Will they put their influence be-
hind it as squarely as they have put
their influence behind the bonus de-
mand?

Dearer, Not Cheaper, Service

'."' AiSSHultv CTCdtCU re-
nlarkable type Of freight carrier for
the Great Lakes service. 1t is almost
perfectly adapted to the economic
needs Of lake traffic. 1t can carry
more dead-weight and cargo tonnage
in proportion to displacement than
any other vessel in the world. ex-
cept, possibly, the coal barge type
employed on the Ohio and Missis-
sippi rivers.
The projectors Of the St. Law
renee Canal mean to bring into COM
petition with this ideal carrier an
ocean-going steamer built on diff
terent plan and unsuited econom-
lcally for inland use. The commits
sion which represented New York at
the ship canal hearings before the
international Joint Commission saws
on this point:
THE cost Of the construction Of
ocean-going vessels is threefold tho
cost Of the construction of lake car
riers Of like displacement, and their
carrying capacity is about SO per cent
OF the carrying capacity of lake ves-
sells, so that the ratio of earnings
per dollar invested in ocean vessels
is only about one-nfth Of the earn
ings of each dollar invested in lake
vessels. This is exclusive Of higher
insurance on ocean vessels and other
larger operating expenses, which
would still further reduce the re.
turns from cargoes Of ocean vessels
while attempting to compete with
lake carriers in Great Lakes COM
merce"
The building Of q St. Lawrence
ship canal would involve an attempt
to substitute an uneconomic type Of
freighter for an economic one. The
superiority Of the lake carrier has
kept the lake freight charges down
to a very low level. The commission
reports that the average cost Of
transportation Of wheat per bushel
from upper lake ports to Liverpool,
via Buffalo and the Erie Canal. was
only 1918 cents in the five years
from 1910 to 1916. How could that
normal rate be lowered to the West
ern farmer by introducing the
through ocean carrier, handicapped
by far greater initial cost and great
el cost Of operation?
The lake ship hauls freight on tho
outbound as we'll as the inbound trip.
The ocean carrier would come home
from Liverpool with DO return
cargo; for the return cargo is the
great problem for our existing ocean
tonnage. The enormous expense of
constructing a St. Lawrence canal
and of deepening lake channels for
the fuller-draft ocean-going ves-
sci makes the venture unpronising
economically. And even if it were
completed it would have to be used
by wasteful type Of ship. 1t is one
thing to establish q superfuous
through route from Duluth to Liver
pool as sop to local or sectional
self-esteenl; but after it is estab-
lished what good can come to the
shipper from trying to operate it on
an inflated freight rate basis?
