HOW TO DEAL WITH TIE
RAILROADS


Recently conference on railroads
was held in Chicago 1t was DOM
mated by the politics which finds
its profits in attacks upon the rail-
roads and which asserts drastic con-
illusions on an assumed knowledge
of conditions In which fair and con-
serative minds have little confid-
ence.
We are now hearing from con-
ference of very different charac-
ter--namely: that of the American
Society of Civil Engineers Its
attendance is composed OF men who
can find no profit in political as
sumptions, who are not fishing for
votes, whose training is expert,
whose method of reasoning is ex-
act, whose object is the ascertain
ment of facts and the establish
ment of principles which are sound
and conducive of public benefit.
The discussion and conclusion of
such a gathering deserves the res
.pected and thorough consideration
of the public and that Of the repre-
sentatiyes OF public interest In
every legislative body which pro-
poses to deal with the problem of
regulation OF transportation agen-
cies. The American people will be
wise to prefer the advice of such
men to that OF politicians whose
main interest is to exploit evils
rather than to correct them. The
engineers interest is to perfect our
transportation, not to ride into Of
flee by attacking its imperfecti0ns
or alleged imperfectiOns. Their In
terest, in other words, is that OF
the public.
There is no more important inter
est in onr, public life. Transporta-
tion, especially byrail, is the arter-
ial system of the country, and the
health of that system is vital to our
prosperity and growth. There is
nothing which could deal a dead
lier blow at the welfare of us all,
from the poorest to the richest,
than blundering treatment of trans
portation: treatment born Of lack
of knowledge. of prejudice fOmented
by selfish poIitice, of lmperfections
and evils misunderstood and dag
nosed unwisely. The effects OF
such treatment would reach into
every home and into every occupa-
tion. 1t would hurt the farmer,
the mechanic, the business man,
the producer, and the consumer.
There is, therefore. nothing more
important than that the problems
of the railroads should be worked
out on plane of knowledge. justice
and sound judgement and not in
an atmosphere of prejudice and mar.
row self-interest. A leading speaker
at the engineers conference states
the key of the situation when he
says that the successful solution
of the railroad problem will depend
upon scientific research to he end
that essential engineering, account
ing and economic data shall be de-
termined, analyzed and presented to
the interstate commerce commits
SION
We would add one other essen
tial-namely: that scientific judg,
ment shall govern, not prejudice
fomened for political ends. 1t will
not govern unless public opinion
resists appeals to prejudice and
keeps clear in its determination to
know tire truth and to support only
such action as is fundamentally
lust t oall interests involved and
which is constructive in the deve-
lopment andmaintenance OF the
most efficient transportation.

ICE CREAM CONES BAKED ON
WHEEL IN GAS OVEN

Ice cream cones, fragile contain
ers of the sweets beloved of youth

of two thousand an hour by means
of a gas oven and a seven-foot
wheel
The wheel lies upon its side. and
is built with tkirty-six spckes, upon
each of which is double iron
mould. The liquid batter is poured
into the hollow cone, a cone shaped
plunger automatically decends,
pressing the batter into its finished
shape. The wheel then revolves,
carrying the mould into the gas
oven, which bakes it evenly and
quickly. The wheel then turns, for
ward another spoke, bringing an
other filled mould into the oven
while the finished cone is removed

THANKSGIVING


(By Milton Hardy
Think of the many blessings
Here on this earth today.
After the harvest is over,
Now, let us thank him today.
Kind was he to give us
Such hosts of good things.
Give thanks for the great blessings
It's marvelous-so many things,
Various things he gave us
In this earth down here.
Now let us thank him for sending
Great hosts of good things each year.

Come the children with a happy call.
