INCORPORATE TIE LABOR
UNIONS.

1t may be recalled. that some
months ago this paper said, that in
its humble opinion. the labor unions
should be incorporated by act of Con-
gress if not by their own volition, in
order that breaches of contract on
the part of the organizations mie:.:
be held strictly to ac It. 1t is
pointed out by the X IKE Times.
that more than IS yc g ago Con.
gress authorized the Incorporation,
but none of the unions chose, for
obvious reasons, to incorporate. As
will be seen from clipping, in an
other column, the highest court has
held that the unions are liable and
suable for injuries and destruction
Of property, the same as are other
great business institutions, whether
incorporated or not Incorporated.

Happily II is not too late to reu1-

4 RegrettabIe Incident
(From the New York Herald) .

The Internal Revenue Bureaus
ruling on gifts TO the Woodrow Will
son Foundation can make only a
most painful impression upon the
American public. Not to permit such
contributions to be deducted from
incomes subjectto to taxes on the same
footing with similar contributions
to the Mckinley Memorial Assocla-
tion is something that the citizen
ship OF this great country never can
be made to understand on any basis
OF petty technicalities.
1t is incredible that officials Of the
bureau with a grain of intelligence
could have deliberately sough such
contemplate grounds TO show an Of
fensively partisan discrimination
against those giving of their means
to do honor to one of our great
Presidents. Undoubtedly they must
have thought they were only doing
their duty under the provision Of the
income tax law. But the fact is
none the less unfortunate, in spite
OF the failure of the Wilson Founda-
ton TO incorporate as an institution
its supporters to income
tax deductions. The bureau has so
treated the delicate question as to
convince millions OF our people that
a department OF the Republican Ad--
was not unwilling to let

The Motor Truck MUusiOn
tFrom the New York Herald). q.

In the opinion OF the Joint Com
mission OF Agricultural Inquiry OF
Congress. the country's $500, 900
miles OF rural highways are as a
whole far below the standard essen
tial to meet the growing needs OF
motor truck transportation.
The situation could hardly be 9TH
erwise The increase Of freight
movement by motor trucks has been
so rtpid, the wear and tear on roads
has so exceeded forecasts. that high
way maintenance Is every day be-
coming a more difficult problem.
The Automobile Chamber Of Com
merce estimates that approximately
a billion and a quarter tons of goods
are annually hauled by motor trucks.
The development OF this form of
transport in the next Ave years is a
matter OF speculation about which
there is no certainty except its un-
certainty.
That the long haul motor freight
truck is here TO stay as an important
unit in the country's transportation
system is beyond question. Its ad-
in some cases over railroad
transport are obvious. Even at the
same charge by the mile 1t IS cheap
er than rail conveyance. Its door to
door delivery OF goods eliminates
double loadings and unloadings as
well as local delivery charges. And
this Is saying nothing of the lessened
risk OF damage from rehandling and
the incidental saving OF time. In

SHOULD DO ITS PART

From the Milford Chronicle.
II Delaware Is to be respected for
honorable and fair dealings with
an early completion OF that part of
the concrete road system which the
citizens OF Delaware, through the
Legislature. pledged the State Of
New Jersey would be constructed,
which will connect the highways Of
the two States by the construction
and operation OF the Interstate
ferry from Lewes to Cape May. New
Jersey has provided for the ferry
and Delaware has appropriated
$4,000 to build the landing stage
at Lewes but at that point the
project stops; and a great inter-
State highway system is destroyed
as a practical line of travel, because
the missing link between Lewes and
the end of the present concrete
highway at Harbeson, about ten
miles of dirt road construction,
which H. weather such as has pre-
vailed during the past winter, is an
abomination and a kill-joy to all
kinds Of traffic.
II is useless to make further state
ments as to why this condition ex-
ists-it is sufficient that 1t does ex-
ist, and today is holding the people
of Delaware up for criticism. not to
mention the charge of making false
promises to the State of New Jersey.
II matters not now how the situa-

the greatest Importance to Delaware
people and the agricultural inter-
ests OF the State, that II exists and
must be cleared away. II is not suf-
ficient that we admit the condition,
for that will not remedy the trou-
BILE; but, in season and out of sea-
son. the people must insist, urge
and demand OF the highway depart
ments of State and county, or the
legislature and all chambers of com
merce. that the connecting link OF
the concrete highway be built with
the greatest possible speed to connect
with this new route for truck traffic
TO carry out fruit, poultry. vegetables
and other produce TO the great con-
suming summer resorts along the
shore Of New Jersey. This means
real money to the farmers and in
creased value to our farming lands.
1t is every persons business to urge
and insist that the road be built this

! more, is not a public enemy but a
venturer who, for the votes there
are in such practices, seeks 10
arouse the people against Legitimate
business enterprise, is the worst
enemy of the people.
The greatest menace to the future
Of America is the demagogue who
breaches hatred OF productive In
dustry. and who appeals to the low
est instincts OF men in an effort TO
arouse class consciousness and ar
ray group against group in this re-
public.
Abuses in business, as defined by
investigation rather than by mere
demagogical defamation, in so far
as they may be corrected through
the use OF governmental power
should be stamped out. Yet care
should be taken in this that in the
effort to correct existing abuses,
greater ones are not made possible.
We have many years OF railway reg
ulatioD, carried to the point of rate
fixing and even OF complete govern
ment control. and we have witness
ed the steady increase of transpor-
tation costs until they now consti-
tute a menace to American prosper
ity. Finally we have witnessed
complete cessation OF railway con-
struction.
The American people today are
living on the fat OF period when
the attitude of government toward
legitimate business enterprise was
constructive rather than destruc-
tive The time is coming when
there must be expansion of indus

country are to be supplied and en-
ployment provided by domestic pro-
ductive enterprise. There will be no
such expansion while business bait
ing, business hating politicians con-
troll or largely influence the trend
of public policy. The people cannot
live upon political hot air. All of
them cannot be maintained on the
public payroll, though we have
travelled far in that direction. There
must be some actual producers left
TO pay the taxes out OF which these

he same conditions, by the same
methods, if we care TO follow the
cad OF the same breed OF dema-
yogues as those who have ravished
Russia. But we in America have
100 much at stake to pemit our
