MEET A MODERN PHILOSOPHER

A man from the north breezes in
and occupies the pulpit today, friends:
Dear DR.. Brady:
I wish to take exception to your
rather one-sided views on the sub
ject of the suitor's health certificate
Contrary to your belief, believe 1t
is high time that the male Of the
species be given an equal break, and
both sexes be held equally responsible
for their own moral delinquencies, for
the benefit of better moral standards
AS / see it, and no doubt untold

theory of laying the blame only at
the mans door Is out Of date, II 1t

respondent A. A. p. Is perfectly right

alton Just as well as the bridegroom
Is she not mother of the children to
come? No responsible woman should
shirk the duty to establish her fitness
for married life and motherhood. The
decent woman need have no fear OF
the physicians examination. This Is
a point the man should absolutely in
sist upon before marriage, and the law
should take full cognizance Of 1t.
It does not help matters in the least
to ignore well known, obvious facts
and to persist In an ostrichlike, alb
surd, one-sided attitude. There are
without question just as many de-
cent men as women, and to pampe1
either sex while shifting the blame
onto the other can only do harm.
Equal rights, equal responsibilities
No sense to hush things up and be
partial to either sex. A man owes
some loyalty to his own sex, even the

fifteen years a double standard" Oul

and modern theories, the lack Of op.
portunity to mate early in life and
establish a home, are responsible fol

standards of the day.
In other words, human blood has
not turned white, neither in man no,

especially so when one realizes
the time>which these innova-

the increase in positions remain
ing after the~yoads are equipped

Strowd Tells of Worn Tires

Twenty-nine million passen-
ger car tires on the road today
should be replaced at once,
Bruce Strowd said yesterday.
Mr.. Strowd's estimate is based
upon a survey made recently by
the Goodyear Tire & Rubber
Company to determine the num-
ber of unsafe tires in operation.
The survey showed that one out
of every three tires checked had
been worn smooth and thin and
was a real danger to motoring.
Multiplying the number of
passenger cars registered in the
United States, approximately
10000 by four and divid-
ing by three, we get a total of
29, 100000 tires" explained Mr..
Strowd.

Mrs. George Williams of Carr

Mrs. Williams was about to
throw the eggs away when Mar

lives nearby, said: LET me have
'em and I'll see what / can do

put the eggs in warm water and
kept them there three hours, be-
ing careful to keep the water
warm; and then she put them

Hand Wipers Declared Liars

(.Neu Y0ri, Herald Tribune)
That was a queer touchstone
Of veracity that gave pause to
the Supreme Court in reviewing
instructions to a jury by Judge
James A. Lowell. Of Massachu-
sets. The Judge said Of the de-
fendant: He wiped his hands
during the testimony. 1t is a
rather curious thing. but that is
almost always an indication of
lying Why it should be so we
don't know, but that is the fact. "
= Quite aside from judicial pro
priety, it was not remark that
would make sense to the aver
age juror. He would say that
if that sort Of evidence counted
anybody would be liable to go to
jail for some mannerism.
It is certainly an esoteric in
ference that a man who wipes
his hands is a liar. For that
matter, most deductions from
personal bearing are treacher-
ous. 1t is said that a man who
looks you straight in the eye
must be honest. Yet everybody
knows that accomplished crooks
frequently have that art to per
fection. To Judge by his frank
gaze, many a rascal is bulging
with probity and his life is ar
open book.
On the other hand, the furtive
doWncast approach may belong
to d person as blaneless as Cas-
par MilquetOast or Sir Galahad
He must be a big psychologist
who can tell by mans looks
let alone his little nervous hab-
Its, whether he is fit to rob q
hen roost or to win the Nobel

The Breach of Promise Racket
HouisUilte Herdld-P0st)

LouisUule Herdld-Post)
A New York legislator has in
troduced bill which would
abolish suits to collect damages
for breach of promise to marry.
It provides that mo court shall
entertain any suit with respect
to a contract entered into by
virtue of mutual promise to
marry; and it would seem that
every State in the Union could
proftably copy this proposed
law. AS things stand now,
most breach-of- promise suits
are little better than legal kind
of blackmail. To be sure, the
man who promises to marry a
girl and then changes his mind
inficts a grave psychic wound !;
but it is not wound which
money can assuage. The deep
er the hurt, the less likely is the
person who has been hurt to
take the affair into court. That,
most of the time, is left for the
racketeer. Society as whole
would be better off if this racket
were abolished.

The Situation of the Railroads

other miscellaneous travelling.
Here as elsewhere, the remedy
chosen is characteristlcally

really an industrial problem.
Rail executives are, ] believe,
for the most part anxious to
meet the situation justly. !
know of number who, if they
could do so, would reduce the
passenger rate to two cents a
mile by coach, and three cents
by chair car. They are unable
to do so because concerted &C
ton is necessary, and others are
still foolish enough to believe
that running empty trains is
cheaper than reducing rates.
Nearly forty-tive per cent of
the railroads income goes out
in wages. This includes not
only the train crews, but vast
host Of workers necessary to
maintain properties, clerical
workers, ticket sellers, and the
ever present staff Of executives.
The labor problem is a serious
one. Most trains carry far more
labor than necessary, when the
porters and special help are in
cluded. Brushing off the coat
and shining shoes does not con-
tribute materially to the par
lor cars charm. If the demands
of the Railway Brotherhoods
could be modified, the roads
would be spared considerable ex-
pense in maintaining the super
fluffy of dignitaries usually
found on passenger trains. To
have both a Pullman conductor
and railroad conductor on each
train, as well as a porter for
each parlor and sleeping car is
an obvious waste of man power.
This need not necessarily mean
a reduction of employees if a
redistribution of work is under
taken. The labor engaged in
maintenance of right of way op-

ing by the introduction of safety
devices and labor saving ma
chinery. Classification yards,
for example, are now operated
from a central tower, which
governs not only the switches,
but also the speed of the cars
which enter them. Thus a
switch engine and one or two
brakemen can do the work which
formerly needed a score. Grade
crossings, which are gradually
being eliminated because of
safety and speed, now employ

time considerably. The Roman
holiday which they have thus
far enjoyed at the expense and
discomfort Of the citizen is
drawing to d close.
1T would, however, be su-
preme folly to suppose that the
bus and truck are not an i'm
portant unit in the field of trans
portation, or even that they will
not supplant the railroads in in
stances. Their flexibility, es-
pecially in local traffic, places
them in d certain field, the boun-
daries Of which, under anticipat-
ed future conditions, cannot be
transgressed proftably.
ITO d certain point, the rail
roads can and should be protect
ed by favorable legislation,
simply because their service at
present and for some time to
come is vitally necessary to the
country, because the bus enjoys
an unfair advantage, and be-
cause the position which the
rails occupy in the structure OF
transportation entities them to
it. If an adequate number of
trucks, busses, and planes were
Immediately produced and put
into service to meet traffic needs,
il would be a physical impossible
ity for them to operate cheaply
and safely. The planes advan-
tageous position on tariff is Sc
cure at present only because Of
government mail subsidies,
which, if removed, would bring
their rates back to non-com-
petitive level.
1T is said on reliable stats
tics that the railroads Of the
country could carry full trains
proftably at three-fourths of a
cent passenger mile. The bas-
ic figures for plane cost are two
and three-fourths of a cent full,
and threem cents sixty per
cent full. That mass trans
portation at low figures is prof
liable every rail executive
knows from experience with ex-
cursion rates. What he either
will not recognize or cannot see
is that the principle of the full
train at low cost is what must
govern passenger policies from
now on. Excursions are but a
small proportion of passenger
business. Trying to pad gross
receipts by weekend excursions
on forty-five per cent round
trip reductions will not appreci-
ably affect the enormous amount
