THE NEED PERSISTS

Those who assume that the motor
bus and truck over the public high
ways maintained by general taxation
are to the railroads what the rail-
roads were to the ox-cart; that In
consequence no more of considera-
ton should be given the railroads
than was given by the transconti-
neRtal railroad to the prairie schoon-
err, should think again.
During 1924 railroads of class one
paid $40, $4,000 in State and FEEDER
al taxes, or 2.5 per cent more than
during the previous year and 1877 per
cent more than in the year 1913. OF
these taxes eighty per cent went to
the several States. the balance to
the Federal Government. Mean
while there has been an increase In
the freight to be hauled over the
steel rails.
Man has found it possible to get
along without the ox-cart. Horses
are disappearing from the highways
The need has been otherwise sup
piled. The need Of railroads has not
been otherwise supplied, nor is there
any immediate prospect that it will
be. To assume that and to disre-
gard the requirements Of the rail-
roads will be found a very short
sighted policy and react unfavorably
on the development of the country.

AN APPREciATIVE VISITOR
APPRECIATED

Florida has delightful winter eli
mate and many attractive features
Maine has a delightful summer eli
mate and many attractive features
both winter and summer. Florida
has brought her attractions to the
attention of the public everywhere.
Maine has not done this with like
enthusiasm and skill, depending
overmuch on the public seeking her
attractions.
Says the Governor Of Florida to
the Governor of Maine: Here Is a
contribution of a thousand dollars
from Commander Gamble OF Miami
to Names publicity fund" Says the
Governor of Maine to the Governor
of Florida: I'VE thank you. and
there is applause all down the line.
Commander Gamble is unknown to
us. but we think it plain that Florida
has in such as he an asset not to be
overlooked; citizen with vision
broad enough to see that the inter-
ests of Miami, of Florida and of
Maine do not clash. He recognizes
a promising field for cooperation.
His example is inspiring. There is
room for us all and the sooner we
get acquainted the better it will be
Tor all concerned, and that includes
the public. If Mr.. Gamble will re-
main with us for while we feel
sure he will conclude that he has
got his moneys worth, plus.

GREETINGS

Vivid, dustless, fresh and inviting
when the sunlight splashes across
the green; really Maine never pre-
scented a more attractive appearance
or would do so if the rain would
give her a chance. But taking our
weather by and large we are not
ashamed to have the visiting Gov
ernors see it au natural. Better still
there is a determination on the part
Of not few fittingly to express our
welcome.
From along the route Of the visit
ing Governors come reports of en-
deavors to be on the welcoming line
Wednesday. East Winthrop insists
we understand. that no community
Of a hundred souls is showing its
hospitable spirit more effectively
than it proposes to do. Let this be
a challenge, and may the best bear
away the palms.
Aside from the palms and the dis
play no one acquainted with the peo-
pie Of Maine doubts the genuineness
of the welcome in their hearts. Mon
ey that has been dug from strong
but resisting soil has been broadcast
from Maine in every State of the
Union. Sons reared in our valleys,
on our hillsides and along the coast
have Jared forth into the world with
credit to themselves and to their
homeland. There ought to be inspir-
alton to be had from natures handi-
work in Maine. There has been.
Perhaps our guests will experience
an inkling of it. Let them take away
with them an impression that there
always may be found here warm
welcome; that whatever we do or
say we are really glad to have them
come; that to not few Of their con-
stituents in the States they repre-
sent, Maine is home.

Editorial Comment
A GREAT MAINE ASSET
Boston Globe)

(BoSton Globe)
Almost everybody knows that the
camps of the State of Maine are
many and excellent, but few, perhaps,
realize the truth of State Health
Commissioner Kendall that "the
camp investment alone in the State
is estimated at s5,000,000, and $4,000
day is paid to the farmers of the
State during the camping season for
milk, butter, eggs and vegetables,
besides other money spent by the in
dividual camper and their visitors
This is a royal asset, and one that
not many of the States of the Union
can match in all its favoring condi-
tons. 1t suggests that Maine should
do everything in it's power to pre-
serve the woods, lakes and streams
that make camping a delight. Ma
ture has been more than generous;
it is up to man to conserve her gifts
to posterity.

TALKS ABOUT HIS BUSINESS

Governor Smith would have US be-
lieve no credit is due the Harding
and Coolidge administrations of ma
tional affairs for economy; that the
only reason Federal expenses are not
so great is because the World War
came to an end.
The armistice was declared In
1918. The Harding administration
did not take over affairs until March
1921. Considerable time elapsed be-
fore the budget system could be in
stalled. Every reading person knows
there was little done by the Demo-
cratic administration In the two and
a quarter years following the war to
clean up and to put an end to ex-
travagances.
Governor Smith, were he address,
ing those who have no recollections
Of the deplorable extravaganza and
Encouragement prevailing at the
close of the war and until the Hard
ing administration had time to get
matters in hand, might have made a
hit when he declared: 1T should not
be q big job to pull down the Fed
eral Government costs from a war
to a peace basis" However. those
not suffering from loss of memory
will recall that it was too big a job
for the Democratic administration,
which showed no inclination to I'M
dertake it. They will also recall that
but for the infiexible will Of Hard
ing the budget system would not
have been inaugurated.
Considering the brevity of Cover
nor Smiths visit to Maine our good
State may not say: you know me
AL" All the same Maine has a pref
ty good line on AL, who has made
a business of politics and cannot
seem to think and talk Of anything
but his business.
