CHIEFS
GRID To FIGHT
RAIL RULE
By GEORGE r. HOLMES


Undeterred by the savage oppo.
sition of organized labor, the
Roosevelt Administration drove
steadily forward today with plans
for setting up a semidictatorShip
over the nations vast tailroad
system.
The necessary legislation is ex-
pected to be ready for transmits
sion to Congress next week. It
is being worked out by a commit
tee comprising Secretary OF Com
merce Roper, Prof. A. A. Berle,
Joseph B. Eastman, of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, and
Prof. w. w. Splawn, formerly Of
the University Of Texas.
Wartime Program
The plan contemplates the ap-
pointment of a Federal co,ordina-
tor, with powers comparable to
those exercised by the wartime
director general of railroads, and
the creation of regional commit.
tees to be selected by the roads
themselves.
These committees would be
charged with working out plans
for:
/. More economical use of
existing facilities.
2. Elimination of waste.
8. Elimination of duplicate
services.
4. Greater utilization of each
others equipment, trackage,
terminals and rolling stock.
That the new deal for the rail-
roads will face bitter opposition
from organized labor was made
apparent today in bristling state
ment from railway labor execu-
tiveS' association, speaking for
virtually all classes of railroad
labor.
All they can see in the plan is
reduced employment:
"NO government or private
employer has the right today to
OdMC away JOUS VI wages ACCCS-
Sary to keep human beings alive
and healthy, without accepting
the responsibility for supplying
new means Of support.
PATIENT LONG ENOUGH
"The Government which will
not put the need for spending
money to provide more work
and wages ahead of any de-
mand for saving money by re-
ducing work and wages, cannot
endure.
"The millions of unemployed,
and those still employed 'n part
time and miserable wages, have
been patient long enough. 1t is
time to stop asking for relief.
1t is time to demand action from
those who have the power to
act. IF that demand is not met,
the power Of action must be
transferred to those who will
use it for the common good"

EQUAL RIGHTS
GIVEN REICH

LONDON, March 81 G.N.SD.
Equality of rights for Germany is
provided in Premier Mussolini's
four-power peace plan, it was af-
firmed today with publication of
the semi i-official version of the
program.
MusSolini's plan provides:
Italy, Germany, Britain and
France shall undertake to rea-
lie an effective policy of CO.
operation for maintenance of
peace.
The four powers confirm the
principle of revision of peace
treaties in accordance with the
clauses of the League covenant.
France, Britain and Italy de-
clare that should the disarma-
ment conference "reach only
partial results" the principle of
equality of rights for Germany
should have effective value.
The four powers undertake to
adopt as far as possible a COM
mon line of conduct on all ques-
tionS.
This agreement, if necessary,
will be submitted for approval
to the parliaments of the ma
tions involved within three
months and will endure for 10
years.

throws light. It is that tariff legisla-
ton and tariff negotiation need for
their guidance some general political
principle which is not simply the COM
posite OF the interests concerned.
Sound tariff policies are not built up
by proceeding to legislate or negotiate
item by item This method Of undi-
rected and indiscriminate tariff max
ing obscures the interests of the Ma
tion as a whole by putting a premium
upon the individual interests of pro-
ducers. a process which. carried to the
extreme, makes for economic anarchy;
and economic anarchy has conse-
quences, as the world is now learning,
that are fully as disastrous in its own
field as anything that could be con-
ceived Of under the regime Of political
anarchy.
Economic anarchy, in which indus
tries are treated in full sovereignty as
though their individual interests were
the paramount consideration, lacks by
its very nature the saving quality Of
democracy, which in political anarchy
would. in theory at least, offer to all
citizens equal rights and an equal
chance in the world. The anarchy q
industry and capital is very different
from this. 1t is privileged anarchy.
feudal and aristocratic by nature and
anti-social to the extent that each Is
led to think in terms Of the exploita-
ton of his fellows and the increase
Of his own personal wealth instead Of
putting the accent first upon the in
creased prosperity Of the country as q
whole, in which and Of which he
should have a proportionate share.
The consequences of undirected tariff
making, leaving 1t to one interested
group to measure itself with another,
thus raises questions which extend far
beyond the price Of commodities. They
tend to modify the nature of the COM
munity itself by causing 1t to lose sight
Of those fundamental interests Of the
common citizen which the State Is sup
posed to embody and the Government
to safeguard, substituting congeries OF
discordant elements. selhshly concen-
trating each upon its own welfare.
True Of NegOtia tons.
But this is at least equally true Of
tariff negotiations between nations. II
there Is no directing principle which
keeps in mind the interest of the COM
munity Of nations, the negotiation OF
treaties commodity by commodity and
nation by nation IS but the extension OF
special interests throughout the world,
playing favorites among nations as well
as among industries. To- meet this evil
the principle Of the st-favored- nation
clause has been widely adopted in re-
cent years. meaning that any favor
granted by treaty shall be extended fair
ly among all signatory nations. Unfor-
tunately. this general principle OF equity
among nations cannot work out ade-
