WHERE FREIGHT RATES ARE HIGH

How do you, Mr.. Taxpayer, like to contribute the
neat sum Of $1,000 for every ton Of cattle, corn, hogs and
mules moved a transportation system which is owned by
the government and, consequently, must be supported by
you and your fellows?
Seven-thousand nine hundred dollars per ton is
precisely what it cost the Treasury to move freight on the
Missouri River branch Of the Inland Waterways Corpora
ton in 1929. The fact is brought out by George Creel in an
article in Golfers. It's easy enough to figure. Taking four
per cent as being a fair rate Of interest on the govern
ment's investment in the river, and adding the 100000
bill run UP annually for maintenance, the taxpayers paid
more than 100000 to keep the waterway going in 1929
Outside of materials used in the governments own con-
struction work, but 779 tons were carried. Ergo: A bill
of $1,000 per ton!
This, of course, is an extreme example, but it shows
the way the wind blows. It has been duplicated to a lesser
extent in waterways in all parts of the country. In the case
Of the New York Barge Canal, there are 66 canal term
inals, which cost S26, 0OO, O00-and at 40 Of them no freight
whatsoever has been handled in recent years. 1t has been
cheaper for the state if it had junked its canal, put all the
freight in railroad cars and paid the bill itself!
Now, with proposals for bigger and better canals
and waterways being considered, is an excellent time to re-
member these lessons of the past and present.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

The Fifth Annual New York Safety Conference to
be held March 9th and 9TH, is an example Of activity which
deserves the widest possible notice.
A large number of organizations-such as the Nat
ional Board Of Casualty and Surety Underwriters, Amer
lean Standards Association, American Red Gross, Society
of Automotive Engineers and similar bodies-will cooper
ate. Topics concerning every phase Of safety work-from
handling material, to fire prevention and falls will be
discussed by experts. The object Of the conference is to
make life safer, healthier and happier for workers, and to
bring American industry a step nearer to the ideal Of alb
solute safety.
Similar conferences should be held in other sections
of the country at regular intervals, to back up the work of
the various organizations which carry on nationwide
safety programs. In the last decade we have made tremen-
dous progress in promoting safety, especially in the field
of industry. Safeguarding Of machinery has been immense

been given a new idea of what safe conduct on his job real
" means. The result is a growing list Of mo accident" in
dustries, and general decline in both the severity and fire.
quency Of accidents in other industries.
Much remains to be done-in industry, in the home
and on public highways, where the death and injury toll is
disgraceful. Safety activities must be expanded.

On the other hand, sweeping vic
tory for Governor Merriam, conserva-

the New Deal. 1t would tend to force
very conservative votes In the next
house, not only because Of Its actual
effect In changing California repre-
sentatives, but because OF Its moral
effect 1t would probably drive Roose-
welt much further toward the Right
