A PALPABLE CONSPIRACY

Whatever the presidential election of 1920 may o1 may not have proved, 1t made the fact entirely clear that the American people had no use for government ownership of the rall- roads. The Republican party denounced It m ifs n]atform and the voters did the rest. It IS necessary to recall this fact of history less than two years old to show how the railroad 7,nions and particularly the brotherhoods, are irving to cram government ownership down the throats of those who reject It.
 It has been pointed out in this place before +hat the charge against the railroads ot oper- ating locomotives and cars in state ot dlsre- nair is really charge against the Interstate Commerce Commission It is one, moreover not suDDorted by a single case Of such opera +ion in defiance of the commissions nspec- tors For months before the railroads were restored to their owners conditions were ln- calculablv worse than they could be today II there had not been a single inspection of loc- omotives since the inauguration of the shop mems strike on the first of July
 All the facts are of record Months before government ownership terminated, the tracks were in such condition that Director-General Hines made wholesale reductions in the run nine time of express trains The time of Pres ident Rea Of the HennsylValla vas "oo's"' m m Chicago and Washington, explaining why It was desperately necessary to supplement the railroad shops with outside assistance Tn re- pair and construction, entirely because of the inefficiency brought about by government ownership and supervision.
 In 1920 we, as people, made up our mlnds that we would not permit billion dollars year of our hard-ea1ned money to be thrown away upon paying war wages to strikers and running the railroads at a loss. We, as peo- pie, have not changed our minds, but the con- spiracy to force us to do so is palpable.

THE EXCHANGING WEATHER
R. T. ROBERTSON

Traditional lore concerning weather condl- tons is being severely challenged, combated and even confounded by the expert meterolo- gist, says the Seward Gateway. These de- clare that those who assert that the winters are neither so long nor so cold as they used to be and that the snowfall is lighter than of yore, are absolutely wrong.
 Dependable records show that the weather in the United States has undergone no ap- preciable change in the last century. If this is true of this part of the world it must be true of all the other parts. In accounting for some of the allegations sincerely put forth by the other side a weather bureau official says:
 '"Those who believe that the weather is milder nowadays forget that in their youth they lived in houses which were poorly heated, making the cold more noticeable. When they tell you that tie snow was deeper, they forget that their legs were shorter.'
 It might be added that the measuring instru- mpnts tOO were not so accurate as those Of today, and that the observations were not so Scientifically made. However, these naZy rem- ories will continue during every mild winter to revive doubtful minus temperatures aud supply arguments to prove that the world IS gradually approaching it's predicted end III fire and flame.
 Against these minds the mute thermome- ter's column of mercury moves vertically m vain.

der houses, since it is not usual for debtor to spend his cash in his creditors stores. Some merchants say. 'Oh, he IS good. He'll pay some day.' But how! And when! Other merchants may call him ''dead beat.' Well! Whose fault is it but the merchants them selves?
 The public has been educated to buy. But they have not been educated to pay. What has this cost the merchant? First, the cost, plus overhead expenses, of the goods already SUD- plied Second, the cost of goods to replace this stock. Third, the loss of that mans cash bus mess. Not only is this a personal loss to the merchant; the town of Cordova is also a heavy loser for the following reasons: First, the money is being sent out of town to the mail order houses. Second, the merchants are not cooperating among themselves. Third, the pub- lie is not cooperating with the merchants. Fourth the tremendous amount of money tied up in old accounts and bad debts makes the overhead so heavy that it keeps the prices up. The amount of money "written off, as bad debts in the United States in 1921 exceeded the total fire losses by l50 per cent!
 A great many people will talk "coopera ton,' but it is very few who will act and do their part in cooperating They say, "Sure! Let the other fellow go first! I'll do it to- morrow" The only cooperation that will do any good at all is what you yourself as an in individual will do today. The other fellow promised to pay "tomorrow. But he didn t pay. Look at the number of people, too, who owed considerable amount of money and have left town to go to other parts of the country or the word-consider that amount of money which the merchants of Cordova have lost!
 Merchants should not blame the public for not paying. It is up to the merchants to col lect-to educate the public to pay. It is the duty of merchants to cooperate and protect themselves, not to be ready to accept any eX- cuse that is put forward. The wholesaler doesn't accept the merchants excuses!
 Yours truly,
 R. T. ROBERTSON

ENCOURAGING BAD DEBTS
EDITOR THE TIMES:

EDITOR THE TIMES:
 Did YOU ever hear of merchant who was too busy ''giving away his merchandlse' to bother about sending out his bills or collect inc his money? But when his banker told him a bic draft was due he would hustle around among his "best payers'' and collect enough to meet this draft, then forget all about the ''od accounts.'' He gives almost unlimited credit to anyone that asks it-often does not bother to get even their full names, ac- dresses or ocupations, nor to ascertain wheth- CT or not they owe other merchants.
 The customer who gets credit so easily and is never asked to pay forgets the value of money, goes ahead and buys more goods than he can ever hope to pay for, not realizing at the time of getting them that they ultimately have to be paid for. This customer thus raises his standard of living to point far above hls income, and gets hopelessly in debt. But that is not all He has been earning, say, $l5O a month, getting credit and living up to $20O a month. At the end of the year he owes $6OO to $SOO He still earns $150 a month-possibly it has been reduced to $125 by this time-his present living expenses are $2OO month. lie has been permitted to develop that habit by the merchants. Now how can man earning $125 month, who spends $200 month on his living expenses, be expected to pay off $500 of debt? Perhaps this man has by this time "got into'' every merchant in town He then proceeds to send for his supplies to mail or-
