first year OF the Harding admins
tration. actual expenditure fell to
$3.373. 100000 and there was a sub
stantial Treasury surplus. That
was because some Of last years
obligations were carried over into
this year. For 1929 the Treas
ury has been expecting a deficit OF
s69S, 100000 since appropriations
were left at the old level while rev.
enues were reduced in the tax revi-
sion law OF 1921. Yet General Lord

board did not say and nobody who
read the boards declaration with a
clear mind can honestly assert the
board said that the maintenance Of
way workers could not get an ade-
quate wage on which 20 live without

distinctly said that the real living
wage was not the thing the union

These 'Niving wage" propaganda
lists have built up a false structure
based on gross miscalculations and
plain misstatements as to what the
workingman's family requires 10

come the average workingmans
family has in this country out of
which both TO live and 10 save. The

The figures contained in the re
port OF car loading. and rolling
stock statistics for the week o.
october 81, just issued by the Asso
! citation of Railway Executives. are
interesting to public that reads
between them the unmistakab1e evil
dence OF increasing business activity
and railway efficiency. Figures, In
themselves, may be dull and dreary
but when they pulse with promise
OF prosperity and breathe with as
surance OF transportation stability
as do thosa under consideration
they become impressively alive.
The aggregate loadings of revenue
freight were within one and one-half
per cent Of the maximum (weekly)
ioadings in the history OF American
railroads. The meaning of this ag-
gregate becomes all the most impress
sive when It Is realized that the
loadings were at the approximate
rate of 14.7s0 cars for every hour OF
the weeks days-estimated on a
twelve-hour basis.
With the exception of coal and
ore--which show a slight decrease,
as compared with the preceding
week-the loadings of every other
commodity show an increase. Com
pared with corresponding weeks in
1921 and 1920, the loading of COM
modities other than coal. coke and
ore shows an impressive gain. Elk

report shows that the loading of

and analysis points straight to the
conclusion that the producer and
consumer are getting in Transports
tional contact in way that spells
increasing business and broader
prosperity.
With agricultural products being
transported in greater volume than
they were in the corresponding
weeks OF the past two years, and
with manufactured products being
transported in greater quantity than
ever before, the coolest blooded ana
lysts cannot fail to read the Railway
Executives report as an encouraging
index of business and trade and in
dustrial revival. Manifestly pro-
ducers are selling in increasing vol
ume and distributors are buying
more heavily-because consumers
are buying more freely. And con-
sumers are buying more freely be-
cause their average condition has
improved and is improving. In this
the railway loading statement IS
borne out by reports from all sec
tons of the country and from all
fields Of activity. Under the strength
ening policies and governmental
conduct of the Republican party the
nation has recovered from depres-
sion and is now well on the high
road TO prosperity.

also shows a significant item relative
