R~ESURGENCE OF THE
RAILWAYS

American railways are coming
back at last. When they announc-
ed some time ago their intention to
spend a billion this year for recon
ditioning, unfriendly critics did not
applaud and those that know how
the general welfars depends on
competent transportation were not
sanguine. Bad usage and scrimp-
ing had wreaked havoc not easily
mended.
How far the efforts at reparation
have gone we do no. know. They
are making progress. An inkling
comes from the latest American
Railway Association report on
freight cars. Loadings made a new
record for the week ended June 80
with 1.021,770 a r Yet in the
same period surplus cars in good
condition amounted to 63,636, an
increase for the week Of 4,965.
That this gain was not due to
fluctuations in the freight move
ment is proved by the fact that in
no week of June did the number of
loaded cars fall below a million.
And in the whole month the idle
car were up 31,193.
To appreciate how radical is the
improvement, glance at the condi-
tions less than three years ago.
Prior to the banner week a fort
night back the week Of October ID,
1920, saw the peak with 1,10s,539
loaded cars. But then the roads
needed 69,517 cars more than they
had-a difference between short
age and surplus Of 133,153 cars.
OF course this extraordinary
change isn't all due to new cars.
The old ones must be in better con-
dition and efficiency back to nor-
NAL. Turning for evidence on this
point to the Bureau of Economics
latest report, we find a good rise in
the net ton miles-tons of freight
times miles carried-5.7 per cent,
for this May over May 1917 when
everything was pulling. The gain
for the year was All per cent, at
tributable in large to the
coal strike of 1922. But in the
only slightly affected Southern and
Western districts the net ton miles
last year were "a and 20 per cent,
respectively below this years.
At this rate under propitious con-
ditions American railways would
soon emerge completely from the
slough of despond into which they
were plunged by government opera
ton and strangling regulation.
, 1923-07-26

has been effective. Wood himself
served Cuba ably. The develop
ment of Alaska has been somewhat
sluggish, but it has been sound. In
Samoa the contrast between Amer
lean rule and German and British
rule has been to our credit. In
Hawaii we have created a develop
ing and busy territory. Stupidities
and omissions being fully acknow-
lodged, the lands we have touched
are today living and thriving lands.
More important, their native popu-
lations are speaking freely and par
ticipating largely in the government.
That Quezon and his fellows could
do as they did is a testimonial to
the type of work General Wood
represents.
In America the temporary devo-
luton of government upon the Gov
ernor-General can accordingly be
viewed with more regret than anx-
iety. The American policy cannot
fully suit the extreme Filipino
Nationalist. General Wood is prob
ably dealing with an impatience
which will have to be curbed for
some years to come if the interests
of both Filipinos and Americans
are to be properly protected.

Perfects New Loader

ROCK SPRINGS. wyo.. July as.-
An invention that bids fair to reyo-
iutionize the loading OF coal from
mine Triple to box car has lust been
patented by Glen Knox. superintend-
ent OF the Gunn-Quealey Coal com.
pany' or Gum and Sweetwater.
The manufacturing right of the
machine has Just beer takon over bv
Lindrooth, Shubart & Co., the largest
manufacturers of conveying and Gle
waiting mine machinery in the coun.
try. The new invention Is known as
he nox-type loading boom. and for
some time past one of the machines
has been in active service at sweet.
water. two at Gum, two in the Utah
coal helds, one in northern wyoming
and several more have been sold and
installed In the prominent eastern
coal helds. where they are giving en-
tire satisfaction.
The knox-type loading boom will
increase the tonnage-capacity of cars
from 10 to 20 per cent. flling in prac-
ucany every cubic inch of the car.
delivering the coal with little or no
preakage. The Importance of this In
at once recognized during the rush of
fall and winter business, and in a
manner solves the car shortage.
The Knox boom combines the func.
lions OF a, to use a coined word. de-
ievator for boxcar coal, with those
OF a picking t~able-loading boom for
open cars. The boom consists of a
S6-inch wide steel pan nveyo
mounted on a structural member sun.
ported on n end by a concrete Tor
other materiaD post to which It is
fastened SO as to permit swinging

sides one end having the usual up.
midtown motion, II also moves side
wise on the r OF a circle. The loose
end is carried by a three-ton plain
trolley hoist. running on an I.beam
spanning the track. A goose-neck
permits the boom going over the
sides and reaching practically to the
bottom of gondolas. This is the load
ing boom function. The picking is
accomplished on the wooden platform
which accommodates one or two pick
ers. To load boxes. the boom is
wun parallel to the cars and the
coal is discharged into a right-angle
chute which leads to the boxcar
loader. The result Is the coal reaches
Its destination with a minimum of un-
controlled, g-avity-chaperoned travel,
and the degradation is therefore
lowered to an irreducibly small
amount.

JAILS COST MORE THAN
SCHOOLS

The United States spends more
annual to maintain jails, bring
criminals to trial and punish them
than it costs to maintain the coun-
try's entire educational system.
This was the startling assertion
of Prof. A. N. Farmer, noted edu-
Gator in an address at Chicago in
which he discussed social problems
and outlined plans for the children's
home which the Brotherhood of
American Yeomen will establish.
"There arc $500 jails in the
United States today" said Prof.
Farmer, who based his statement on
government figures, "and more
than $1,000 900 900 is used up in
maintaining them, housing prison
ers, preparing cases against them
and melting out punishment. Jails
support thousands of able-bodied
men and women in complete idle
ness. The worst elements of the
criminal world are mixed with raw
first offenders who might other
wise be salvaged for some useful
purpose in life. The result is a
steady stream of dangerous human
ity.
"Seventy-one per cent of the men
incarcerated in jails are under
twenty-one years of age. Practical
ly all first crimes are committed be-
fore the age of eighteen. Neglect
in childhood and destruction of all
moral sense through evil environ
ment r responsible for most of the
crime"
Mr.. Farmer declared that the
Yeomen home will are for under
p%rivileged orphan children who il
left to shift for themselves might be
potential criminals. These young
sters, he said, will be provided with
wholesome home influences, educat-
ed under experts and moulded into
the finest types Of disappearing
men and women.

THE IMPATIENT
FILIPINOS

Most of the United States will
agree with Governor-G General Wood
of the Philippines as to the resigna-
ton Of the Cabinet, the President
of the Senate and the President of
the House of Representatives. 1t
is a deplorable incident
Probably the general tendency
will be to sympathize with the Fiji
pinos.
It would be we'll, however, to
look at all the facts bearing on
the situation. In the first place
General Wood is not a pleader
against Philippine independence.
He merely believes in the words Of
the Wood-Forbes report, that the
present general status of the is
lands should be preserved until the
people "have time to absorb and
thoroughly master the power in
their hands" In the light Of the
newness Of Philippine education and
government, of the recent misman-
agement of the Philippine National
Bank with its loss or tieup of $685.
10000, and of the general and nat
ural weakness of Philippine courts
and budget making, this conclusion
may represent the m m sense of
the situation. Nor do the actions
OF General Wood in accordance with
it seem to have constituted a viola
ton of the sacred pledge of the
people and the Government Of the
United States to guarantee the Fill
ipino people the exercise of self
government pending the recogni-
ton of independence"
The truth probably is, as this
State Department seems to believe
that Quezon and his associates rep
resent one of two parties in the
Philippines that must be listened to
with caution. One is an American
resident party, which for CONNER
cial reasons would like to hear the
talk of independence die. The 9TH
er is the Nationalist party which
would like to have independence i'm
mediately. Some one must judge
between the two. Judgment cannot
be for the former, but on the basis
of reason and statistics it cannot
be unqualifiedly for the latter.
General Wood may have his limita-
tons, but his record would seem to
indicate that if the United States
has shown capacity to deal with
problems like the Philippine prob
lem, she can depend on his sanity in
carrying out what in the end will
be the sanest policy.
And for the capacity Of Ameri-
cans in such cases a convincing ar
gument a be made. We have
done foolish and wicked things Gas
in Haiti and even in Porto Rico.)
But we have done these where pub
lie interest has been slight and our
