Death Kne[E For
San Francisco Bay
Ferries Sounded

SAN FRANCISCO March "a UH
The state railroad commission
sounded the death knell for San
Francisco bays colorful ferries and
gave the go-ahead signal to inter
urban rail service across the huge
San FranciScO-Oakland bay bridge
today in certificates of public con-
venience and necessity issued to the
Southern Pacific railroad and the
key system.
Closing months of hearings and
negotiations. the commission issued
the certificates and in a supple
mentary order ruled that passenger
ferry service must be discontinued
upon completion of the bridge.
The commission thus established
train service as the only medium by
which commuters may cross San
Francisco bay. The service is eX-
pected to save approximately 10
minutes in the average time re-
quired to reach San Francisco from
East Bay communities. Only from
Alameda will the time be lengthen-
ed.
Alameda objected on that ground.

He spoke in favor of the stock

since farmers have 10 have their
products inspected to ascertain
their purity and worth. there
should be no legitimate reason why

stock issues inspected to determine
their soundness and worth.
Dr. Saund also favored the social
security bill because, he said, it
provides insurance for workers in
the event of unemployment should
depressions take place in the future.
This will help the. farmers, in the
opinion of the speaker, by provid-
ing money to be circulated. thus
preventing a recurrence of events
similar TO those in recent years.
Expenditures for relief, according
to DR.. Saund, had TO be made TO
put money in circulation and the
money actually was spent to create
useful things. He pointed to streets
in Westmorland. tennis courts, and
the swimming pool all built with
federal funds or with the help of

the relief payroll was help to

the relief and semi-relief funds, he
said, would be paid for by those best
able to pay it
He explained how the government
became a borrower when those who
had credit would not borrow to put
accumulated surpluses of money in
to circulation and provide buying
power.

Counting the property damage

business days lost by thousands
of merchants, stores and offices,
and millions of tons of fertile
farmland washed into the sea, the
estimate appeared to be conServa-
tive.
Welfare authorities feared that
the thousands of families left with

stores and factories, and thousands
of others made INDECENT by de-
structicn of their houses or loss
of home furnishings, would seri-

Governors of affected states al

nearly $100,000,000 of federal funds
for rehabilitation and relief. In
addition, all flooded states, coun-
ties and municipalities have used
or will use considerable sums of
their own money. Private agencies,
such as the Red Cross and Sal

money to somewhere around $780,

New Deal fight. It has seemed as II

New Deal fght. II has seemed as II
his passion was not against the New
Deal but against persons and groups
who had incurred his displeasure by
differences which arose in the past
and now seem petty, compared to the
deep cleavage the New Deal has
brought into American politics.
AS men grow old their personal
traits are accentuated. AS the lines
deepen on brow and cheek. SO do the
inner ruts OF temperament, of preju-
dice, of every frequent emotion or
mental habit. Senator Borah has
always been more easily moved to
opposition and criticism than to CO.
operation or support. 1t is for what
he has opposed that the history books
will longest mention him, especially for
his initiation, earlier than any other,
and his long leadership of the fight
against the League of Nations, He has
found few issues to warmly approve.
Nom Cooperative AIlegory.
A story told long ago and frequently
revived as an allegory to portray Borah
was about a man who, arriving at his
ONCE in the morning, finds everything
going wrong-his office boy nnislays the
key to his desk, his stenographer mis-
spells his dictation, the postman brings
an irritating letter, in board of direc-
tors meeting he is minority OF one.
After a forenoon of crowded exaspera-
ton, friend asks him what he is
going to do. II am going" the bris-
tling one says, home to dinner; I'm
going to ask my wife II dinner is
ready; If not ready, I'm going to bawl
her out; and If 1t Is ready, I won't
eat it."
But all that does not matter. SEN
ator Borah's temperament does not
matter. Senator Borah. because Of
one policy he sternly insists upon, Is
more important for the Republican
convention to heed than any other
man. Not for the following he may
or MAY not have among voters; not
for the fear that he may bolt or the
hope that he will not.
Vision Accurate.
1t is Borah's insistence upon anti
monopoly that must be needed. In his
emphasis on that, Senator Borah is
seer, with a vision more accurate than
any other man in active politics. 1t is
only among scholars. and not fire.
quently there. that prophets can be
found who see how indispensable anti
monopoly Is at this time. to the Repub-
lican party and to America.
II Senator Borah seems little pas
sionate in his insistence, it is perhaps
because he feels so strongly that anti
monopoly. strict preservation of the
competitive conception OF society, Is
the only way to save the American
system anG the American form of
Government. There is the COM
petitive conception and there Is the
collective conception. America can
have free competition by individuals,
| OF it can have State collectivism. The
New Deal is trying to press down State
collectivism upon US. They will sue
ceed, or some future New Deal will
succeed, unless the Republicans next
week. and all who want to keep
America what it has been take the
competitive path, the anti-monopoly
path.
