REFUSED

Visiting at the Schmidt Brew

ter this week, Arthur Allen, man
ager of this paper, was refused
service at their bar. This cour-
tesy, given willingly to all who
have business at the plant, was
denied Mr.. Allen. Perhaps to en-
phasize the fact that this concern
does not care for the people Mr..

There is no legal redress for
this lack of civiity. It can be re-
sented, however, by our people in
a continued refusal to patronize
products sold by so unfair a firm.

TODAY'S SCIENCE
by DAVID DIETZ-

ONE of the founders of the mod
~ ern world of science passed
from the earthly scene with the
death of Ivan Petrovitch Pavlov.
Two sciences, physiology and
psychology, owe much of their pres
ent point of view to this genius, best
known as the discoverer of the
conditioned reflex"
Prof. Pavlov died in Moscow of
influenza on Feb. % at the age of IS.
Last summer the International
Physiological Congress, which meets
every three years, held it's meeting
IN Moscow. Uppermost in the minds
OF many famous delegates was the
feeling that this might be their last
opportunity to see their great leader.
Six years before DR.. Pavlov made
the journey to America in order to
attend the sessions of the same or
ganization in Boston.
Despite the fact that he was an
outSpoken critic of the Soviet
regime, the Russian government did
everything in its power to aid his
work, building him a laboratory at a
cost of more than 100000. Recent
~, the government voted him an
annual pension of $17,600.
The explanation probably lies in
the fact that the Soviet officials
eager to promote science in Russia
and to convince the rest of the world
of their interest in science, appre-
ciated the value of Pavlov as a
scientist, whatever his private views
may have been on the subject of
government.

LEST THEY HANG SEPARATELY

- ABROAD labor groups have been standing on
one side and railroad management groups on
the other, both using political pressure on Congress
to solve their common problems
This mas been true through many sessions, and
yet neither side is satisfied with the legislative grst
which has issued-more liberal bankruptcy proce-
dure. provisions for consultations and reorpaniza
lions and economies and protection for abors rights
Now President Roosevelt suggests to the leaders
OF both groups that they this folly and try to
settle their differences.
The railroad industry for long time had prac-
teal monopoly of the nations transportation bus-
ness And skilled railroad workers through superior
organization. built up for themselves wage and work.
ing standards BETTING the aristocrats of labor"
But today the railroads are a beleaguered in
dustry, and far from monopoly Motor trucks
motor buses, airplanes and inland water carriers
have made and continue to make costly competitive
raids on rail traffic. The rate yardstick. "all the
traffic will bear" longer means what it did under
monopolistic conditions.
To recapture pre-eminence in the transportation
field the railroads need to eliminate costly duplcat
ing services and effect other economies reduce rates
and put their financial affairs sound basis so
they can raise new capital to modernze equipment.
The workers, whose numerical strength already has
been pared down by the depression and the rail-
roads loss of business properly demand that all this
reorganization not be effected at their expense So
they prevail upon Congress to protect their jobs
by law. Congress did this under emergency trans
portation law which will expire in few weeks. The
workers ask that all of these safeguards and many
be written into law. And the railroad
operators, who contended the emergency acts labor
provision was too onerous, are adamant against any
extension W enlargement
Meanwhile competitors are still going after the
business which is robbng the railroads of profits
and the rail workers of jobs
The President has merely reminded railroad man
agement and labor Of the first law Of nature-self
preservation.

SHARPER THAN A SERPENT'S TOOTH

GET vacant chair and drop a not-too-bitter tear
~ for one of Americas oldest, most familiar cam
paign year figures The tariff, apparently, will not
be present for the 1886 voting festivities.
In the old log rolling days when the tariff meant
rich prizes for the ms bitter medicine for the OUTS
no campaign was complete without it. Reciprocal
facts and their disregard of domestic political de-
mands have changed all that.
But there is still another reason why the tariff
will not be talked about in this year of business dis
content The Roosevelt trade agreements are prov
ing to be good for business. And the opposition's
1886 campaign strategy requires that if nothing
evil can be said about government policy, it should
be ignored.
Figures just tabulated show what happened to
business during January, the first month in which
the Canadian Treaty was in effect. They disclose
that exports went up Is per cent, imports IA per
cent.
Hard-pressed manufacturers of machinery and
electrical equipment-heavy goods industries about
which so much has been said-got most of the bene
fits though Southern fruit growers came in for
fair share
Four other trade agreements were in effect dur
ing all or part of 1885. Our exports to Belgium
increased 81 per cent to Haiti II per cent and to
Sweden Is per cent, while exports to Cuba were
14o per cent greater than in 1885, 80 per greater
than in 1884
Many of the profting by these agreements
will not favor Roosevelts reelection. They will
rely on the probability that any elected in
1886 will continue this emnently successful policy
The moral is King lear learned many years
ago.

this army of unemployed will break
our economic system and endanger
the democratic form of government,
if not destroy it, as it has done in
some European countries.
This is not a matter of muddling
through. 1t must be definite pro-
gram of reconstruction of our econ
omy, on a basis of production in
great abundance. There are no
natural" ways to recover, if we in
sist on scarcity of production. These
IL million unemployed must be
forced back into industry from
which they came. They must pro-
duce goods and services in larger
quantities. The government must
insist on industry re-employing this
man power at once.
Production schedules in every line
must be stepped up. These men
should be assigned to the industrial
production line. Their wages must
be equal to that of those now en-
ployed, and their pay should come
from the Federal treasury for at
least six months.
Then program of taxation
MOULD be inaugurated to reimburse
the treasury for the subsidy to pro-
duction. Prices should fall as prod
duction increases, thus making
greater consumption of goods pos
sible. Any other program will land
us in a collapse and bankruptcy.
Private industry can not do the job
alone.
