The reason why the breast OF a bird

C. r. Gray of the Union Pacific sys-
TEN said today that in view of the
widespread discussion of the recent
decision of the supreme court hold
ing illegal the control of the Central
I, Pacific by the Southern Pacific, and
the frequent reference to the Union
Pacific in this connection, it seemed
; timely to make statement of the
interest of the Union Pacific in the
situation resulting from that. de-
cision. He said:
Both the Union Pacific and Cen
trail Pacific, constituting the first e.
trail Pacific, constituting the first
transcontinental line, were construct

gress, passed in the sixties, which
provided for a continuous line of rail-

that they should be operated and

concerned, as one connected, contin-

"PRoTECTING THE PUBLIC"

The Supreme Court decision of
May 29th requiring the Southern Pa
cific ca cancel it's lease of the Gen.
trail Pacific, sell its Central Pacific
stock and completely separate the
control and operation of the two
companies is the most perfect IL
lustration yet witnessed of protect
ing the public" to It's great derimeni.
The Sherman Act, passed to pre-
vent combinations in restraint of
trade, has when technically applied
to this case deprived the public of
a unified transportation spstem with
absolutely no resulting benefits.
Since 1870 or for So years the
Southern Pacific and Central Pa
cific have been operated as one rail-
road.
The Sherman Antitrust became
effective July 2, 1895, five years
after lease of Central Pacific to the
Southern Pacific and 20 yeasr after
Oct. IL, 1870, when according to
public records, the lines went under
common control.
The Southern Pacific financed the
Central Pacific, enabled it to pay
millions of dollars st owed the gov
eminent and co-ordinated the two
systems into one unit of transporta-
ton.
If this development work carried
on for nearly a qual ter of century
before any one ever heard of the
Sherman Antitrust Act, had been
done by either the Southern Pacific
or the Central Pacific under one
name there would have been no suit
under the Sherman Act.
The only question of present inter-
est to the public is whether or not
the public is hurt by having this de-
velopment work done by single
control under two corporate names,
instead of having 1t done by single
control with single contol with a
single corporate name.
Feb. %, 1872 the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission Aug. 8, 1921,
announced plans authorizing various
Central and Southern Pacific were
to remain one system.
This grouping by the Commission
affords the remedy by which one
of the principle transportation sys-
TENS Of the nation need not be torn
assunder, after unified operation in
the public interest for several de-
cades.
The Supreme Court was forced to
render decision on a purely tech
meal question which involved a the
oretical merger of these roads con-
trary to the Sherman Act.
AS a matter of fact there neeyr
was merger In this case as the
two roads grew and developed as a
single unit like double tree hav-
ing a common root.
Action by the Commission to main
tain operation system as unit
seems amply justified by the general
experience of the territory served
and the interests of the various com
munities dependent on it for freight
and passenger service.
Whatever Is to the public interest
will prevail in the final disposition
Of this case,

SOU S
Conducted by National Council of the Boy
Scouts of Americal
A FRIEND OF BOY SCOUTS

"Old Charley Tiffany" is dead; died
in poorhouse at that, and penniless.
Was he failure? Not if you accept
the verdict OF the boy scouts of Bridge
port, Conn.,, who declare he was the
best of good scouts and followed him
to his grave on New Years eve with
reverence and tears. "Old Charley"
was once rich and prosperous, a ia
nous landscape architect. But mis-
fortune came. His fortune vanished.
His family life went shipwrecked. Only
his son, Goelet, remained to him and
the two came to Bridgeport to begin
life anew, on six acres of land pur-
chased on the installment plan. Things
were just beginning to look bit
brighter when the war came. Goelet
went across" The old man worked
alone. Presently the word came that
the boy would never come back. He
slept under white cross in poppy-
land. The old man gave away his six
acres to the boy scouts. He loved all
boys for Goelet's sake and he wanted
his friends, the scouts, to have their
needed camp. He became an odd-job
workman for anyone who would hire
him, living obscurely in a mean little
rooming house, interested In nothing
but scout activities. When he died
they found that when he gave the
scouts the farm he did not own it.
ALI the installments were not paid on
the purchase price
He didn't tell them anything about
that, because he did not want anyone
to think the gift had a string to it.
And there wasn't any string, either.
For often, without sufficient food and
clothes for himself, frequently without
a place whereon to lay his head, the
old man, dollar by dollar, cleared off
the last cent of debt on Camp Tiff
fany'' before he went to the Hillside
home, county charge, to die.

HELPING THE RED CROSS

Logansport Qnd.) scouts distributed
over 500 window posters for the Red
Cross, and on a certain Sunday two
uniformed scouts were stationed at
every church in the city, distributing
Red Cross literature.
At Tarentum, Pa, scouts have
been helpful in gathering in bundles
Of old clothing for the use of the poor
at the request of the local chapter Of
the Red Cross. Nearly everybody is
willing, even anxious, to contribute
cast-off apparel where it can be Of
use, but when it comes to getting the
bundles delivered to the receiving sta
tions-there's the rub. The fact that a
courteous and businesslike young man
in khaki called for the contribution
and relieved the donor of all further
responsibility probably doubled the
grlst.

THE INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE

An English scoutmaster tells the
following story: After a long day,
visiting the battle area around Metz
wood with a group Of his scouts, the
scoutmaster sat down on boulder
and made sign to poorly-clad
French boy who was lowering near,
that he would like q shell case. The
boy understood and was off like a
shot, returning in five minutes with a
shell case, which he presented with a
beaming smile. The scoutmaster Of
fered him franc. The boy shook his
head and walked away. After mo-
ment he came back and made the
scout salute. 1t was his explanation
of the reason why he had refused the
money when obviously it would not
have been amiss. He was a scout
and scout does not accept money for
