Railroads Failed.
fcontinued from Page one.)

This attempted alibi for their mis- management was shattered by the governments attorney, who said:
 ''In the work of national defense, transportation became one of the great essentials. The railroads were unable to assume this burden, and on December 26, 1917, the president took the unprecedented action of taking over all the railroads of the United States as a war instrumentality.
 The government poured into the depleted veins of the railroads $I,5oo, COG, 900, and in one single order the director general ordered Ioo, ,ooo cars and 2,ooo locomotives. Thus America was enabled to do its share in the greatest war in history.
 "The war had ended, and the ques- ton now arose: What should be done with the railroads? Many distin- guished men favored prolongation of federal control for a number of years. Otherh favored governmental owner ship. No one-certainly not the rail- road ofhcials-ever suggested or ask ed that the railroads be immediately turned back to the carriers without

EDUCATION FAILURE NOT PROPERLY USED

Washington, Dec. 8-"It is true that brains, not properly used, are at a discount and that education is a failure If 1t does not take account of, and fit in with the practical conditions cnder which we live,' says the Fed eral Employe, in discussing the ten- dency of so-called "brain-w orkers" to deplore their position, as compared with so-called working men,"
 The Federal Employe draws nor al by pointing to successes of the In ternational Typographical union in its 44-hour fight and the Actors Equity associations contest with producing managers over the union shop.
 "The printers battle has been won to a very large extent, but it was no pink tea contest" says the Federal Employe.
 Beginning in 1o2I the membership of the I. T. U. assessed themselves 10 per cent of their earnings in order to finance the fight and are still paying ? per cent Up to last May, the 1. T. U. had paid out more than $I4,ooo,- GOO to win the 44-hour week for the book and job printers"
 The Actors Equity Association, whose members are in different field of activity from the printers, are also cited by the labor magazine to prove that mournfuf pleadings that one's education IS not appreciated, will bring no results.
 What is the lesson to be drawn from the examples of these two or ganizations, the membership of which differs so greatly? Merely this, that education even though specialized, must recognize the necessity in the field of business of adapting the means used to the requirements of the cause. s4
 'tThe. modern commercial and i'm dustrial world is thoroughly organ ized on the basis of private profit, The fight for private profit is waged necessarily, too often ruthlessly. The individual wage earner, whether an en4ploye of the government or of a corporation, is helpless. Organization backed by persistent, militant effort, appears to be the only hope:.of saliva tion and, beyond that, the only hope of democracy"
