that this railway Is on its way back
to regain its former high position
In the railroad financial field, its net
railway operating income for the
first seven months OF this year being
more than 100000. larger than in
the same period last year
There Is strong probability that
the st. Paul this year will not fall
far short Of making its fixed charges.
Such a showing would indicate a
marked improvement over 1925, when
there was net deficit Of s3,934,611.
With the exception Of poor crop con-
ditions in sections Of South Dakota
and southern North Dakota, the gen.
eral outlook Of conditions along the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul is
described as good. AS a result, the
roads operating revenues are now
steadily increasing. while operating
expenses are decreasing.
The manner in which this changed
condition In the st. Paurs affairs
has been brought about, constitutes
a story in which some remarkable
gains in efficiency of operation are
set forth. These include increase
In net train load, decrease in cost Of
handling coal to locomotives, in
crease of car milage per day. reduc-
ton in the amount Of coal used by
freight locomotives, and a marked
decrease In loss and damage pay
ments.
In the face Of many discourage
ments while in the hands OF receivers,
this huge railway system has made
an astonishing advance towards
, prosperity. Observers will be likely
to arrive at the conclusion that with

greater efficiency in operation, other

Editorial Comment
Lorgnettes for Soldiers

(NeW 1OTh w OTlOJ
The army, according to a dispatch,
will equip its aviators with lorgnettes
in order to assist them in reading
maps. Perhaps this Is all right. but
we wish the General Staff had consult
ed with the navy before taking so I'M
portant a step. In such things the
navy has certain je-ne-sais-quoi
touch of sapience which so far has
been missing in the army. For exam
pie, there was its mastery handling
of the chewing-gum problem. AS far
back as 1911 1t banned chewing-gum
from all ship canteens and then few
months ago put it back again. That
was progress. Then there was the way
1t dealt with the tea-tester question.
That is long story. and the Treasury
Department had something to do with
it; but it Will suffice to say here that
no tea-taster from now on will tread
the deck of an American ship. We may
be wrong, but somehow We have a
bunch that the navy can pass on this
matter of the lorgnettes better than
the army. Wouldn't it be better If it's
wisdom were sought now rather than
later on, when it may be too late?

INCREASING EFFICIENCY OF
STEAM RAILROAD OPERATION

Declaring that the railway passen-
ger business Is constantly becoming
less profitable, the Railway Age in
an editorial in its current issue
presents figures to prove that the
railways of the western district as
a whole actually handled their pas
senger business in 1925 at an operat-
ing loss Of more than $4,000, 900. The
publication, however, does not en-
phasize these facts as plea for
more restriction Of the motor bus
service through state and interstate
regulation, but rather as a basis for
argument against abolition of the So
called "surcharge" on travel in sleep
ing and parlor cars.
1T would be impossible" the Rail-
way Age asserts, for the railways to
increase their earnings from pas
senger business by making a general
advance in their passenger rates, be-
cause undoubtedly this would in
crease their loss Of day coach BUSH
ness to the private automobile and
the motor bus. The abolition OF the
surcharge would simply deprive them
of about $40.o00,000 annually of pas
senger earnings which the public, by
its increasing use o. sleeping and
parlor car service, Is showing that 1t
10 willing they should have, and
thereby increase by that much the
loss from passenger business which
would have to made up from earn
ings from freight business. There Is
no sound argument whatever that
has been or can be advanced in favor
Of any such policy"
It Is pointed out further that under
government operation, and again in
1920 after tho return Of the railroads
to private operation, passenger rates,
a. we'll as freight rates, were adj
vanced. Since then. however, while
freight business has increased. pas
Asnger business has greatly declined.
the decline being entirely in passen-
gers riding in day coaches.
In connection with this picture Of
the railroad business, It is interesting

THE Philippine QUESTION
AGAIN

! Again the Philippine Legislature
exhibits its impatience for "im-
mediate, absolute and complete in
dependence" from the United States
in twice within month adopting
a resolution calling for this move.
The Philadelphia Public Ledger
aptly remarks that "if only the wishes
of the Philippine people. as expressed
by their representatives, had to be
taken into consideration, the problem
might solve itself without difficulty.
But this Is far from being the case.
The problem of self determination
for the Philippines is highly COM
pick. Capital considerations Of inter
national politics enter into the mat
ter, not to mention the rights and
interests Of the American people in
the Philippines, which cannot be dis
missed offhand."
Consideration must also be given
to the progress Of the Philippines
under the tutelage Of the United
States. A recent government report
shows a jump in the value Of their
exports from about 100000, before
the United States exercised its super
vision. to 11,ooo,O 900, in 1925. OF
all Of the real estate in the country,
81 per cent Is owned by the Filipinos
and 70 percent. Of the public utility
enterprises are thus owned. There
are 1863 public schools in the islands
with more than a million pupils.
John W. Haussermann, chairman
of the United States Mission, Amer
lean Chamber of Commerce of the
Philippine Islands, is authority for
the statement that under American
sovereignty the Filipino masses enjoy
the maximum Of personal liberty;
they are not oppressed or exploited;
they have virtually complete local
autonomy and unrestricted opportun-
ity for social and economic develop
ment." He says further: LAS mat
rner Of fact, the Filipino has greater
personal liberty and political rights
than the citizen Of the United States,
and the Philippine government has
greater political independence and
greater governmental jurisdiction
than any state Of the Union
Such reports Of progress and sound
government in the Philippines indi-
cate the importance Of time and CO.
operative effort in settling the ques-
ton Of independence. Through
school training, membership in the
Legislature and the holding Of NUM-
cipal and province offices, the Filipi-
nos are offered great opportunity to
gain broader understanding of gov
ernmental problems and there Is
evidence that the leaders are awake
to these opportunities.

Home
1 want to have a little house
With the sunlight on the moor,
A chimney with a rosy hearth,
And lilacs by the door.
With windows looking east and west,
And a crooked apple tree,
And room beside the garden fence
For hollyhocks to be.
o, all my life I've wandered round,
But the heart Is quick at knowing
It's own roof and its own bush
And its own boughs blowing.
And when / find that little house
At noon or dusk or dawn
I'll walk right in and light the fire
and put the kettle on.
