Let Us Have
the Naked Truth

Walker D.. Hines, former Director
General of Railroads under government
management is now dragged shrieking
to the public pillory by the Association
of Railway Executives and told that his
report regarding the condition in which
the government turned over the roads to
their owners is untrue. Always suave, of
course, the railway heads do not flatly
allude to Mr.. Hines as falsifier. but del
icately describe his statement as "a fiction
representing ,an extraordinary distortion
of facts" This is followed by . mass of
statistics to show that the government
handed over the railroad wreckage in
such condition that only the income from
higher i)tes will save the day and put the
service once more in workable order.
In conformity with the recognized
rules governing campaigns Of propaganda
these statements are sent broadcast to the
newspapers for publication and general
consumption. Were the publishers of
newspapers to feed to the public all the
propaganda pap that reaches them there
would soon develop case of national in
digestion that might cause serious iaternal
disturbance. In this case however, it may
be well to consider the statement of the
roads because the people want the facts.
1t will be interesting to learn what Mr..
Hines has to say in reply, but the voice we
want most to hear in connection with the
railroad situation is the voice of the farm
er. Perhaps We may get this concretely
before the people through the avenue of
the agricultural bloc. If freight rates are
responsible for much of the high cost of
foodstuffs to the consuming public and the
cause of low prices for foodstuffs when
bought from the farmer. if they make the
farmer pay more for what he has to buy
and get less for what he has to sell then
the appeal of the roads would seem ripe
for the ash heap. Some other way must
be found to rehabilitate the roads. Per-
haps turning the spigot for time might
have some effect. The economists of the
Senate should diagnose the case in Ian
guage the people can understand and then
perform whatever operation may be rec
ognized as wise without delay. The rights
of the railroads must not be infringed.
but the benefit of the public must be the
first consideration. OF hand it looks as
if the interest Of the people and the in
terest Of the farmer are one and indivis-
ible.
