Previous regulation has been
largely negative. The regulation
which will tend to be produced by
the inquiries into the condition Of
equipment will be positive. 1t will
be for the enforcement Of service.
These inquiries fall in therefore
aptly and neatly with the new
statute proposed by Senator john

equipment. Senator johnson Is un-
dertaking to compel equipment. The

has an indirect right to compel

will make the railroad question an
extremely intense one by the time

No Argument Against System.

There is no sane argument against
the cooperative system Of selling
farm products. There Is every argu-
ment for 1t, chief among these being
the absolute success Of cooperative
marketing as demonstrated in Cali
fornia among fruits and in Oklahoma
and Texas with cotton. "A debater
at Georgia State Agricultural Col
lege wrote Theodore Fl. Price, editor
Of Commerce and Finance" Of New
York, to find out what arguments
could be used against the formation
Of cooperative marketing associa-
tions for cotton. Mr.. Price answered
by telling the debatcr that there was
but one side to the question, and that
was the affirmative side. Ile further
stated:
"It is only through corporation
and compromise that civilization
is advanced, and those who oppose
them oppose human progress. I
advise you to decline the urGu-
nGnt."
