PREVENTING WAR

THE Committee on Military Affairs of the
United States Senate submitted report rec
)mmending the enactment of the bill, introduced
by Senator Lee of Oklahoma, "to promote peace
md the national defense through more equal
distribution of the burdens of war by drafting the
lse of money according to ability to lend to the
Government"
Standing on the conviction that the owners of
property should be required to make sacrifices
Turing war and prevented from amassing large
profits from war, the bill declares "that whenever
Congress shall declare war, or shall declare that
he imminence of war has created an emergency
which in the judgment of the President is Suffl-
GENTLY serious to necesSitate an increase in the
Military Establishment by the drafting of man.
power, the President is authorized and requested
20 cause to be taken census of the net wealth of
he nation"
On the basis of the wealth census the law
would require persons owning wealth valued at
81 600 or more to lend portions of it to the Gov
ernment in return for fifty-year bonds carrying
)ne per cent interest, the bonds being redeemable
1t the option of the Government
The apportionment of the compulsory loan is
graduated in manner similar to the Federal in
come tax, laying the heaviest burden on those
most able to lend. The loans range from five per
cent on net wealth of from 81, 900 to $4,000 and
zen per cent on wealth ranging from $4,000 to
100000 up to IS per cent on wealth above $780,
100000
Pointing out that one of the greatest incen-
lives to war is the possibility of making profit
oy means of high interest rates during the war,
The report declares that the enactment of the Lee
Dill would remove any possibility of profits re-
sulting from financing the war;" and "would help
20 equalize the financial burden of war;, the report
added:
''1nstead of holding out the tempting incentive
IF high interest rates for the use of money in the
case Of war, it would say to the financers of the
United States, IF the United States goes to war,
you will be compelled to finance it, and that not
at profit but at a loss
1.-The surest way to prevent this country from
|oeing drawn into a future war is to draft money
as well as manpower. When the financial ty-
Icoons and large manufacturers realize that they
will have to lend the bulk of the money necessary
to finance the next wear at an extremely low rate
of interest they will hesitate to use the forces at
their command to propagandize the general public
into war hysteria.
Thus we will have taken another step in the
direction of peace by having removed one more
cause of war;
lhe Lee bill OF course, was not acted on by the
last session OF Congress- But it's drastic provision
for the drafting of wealth as well as manpower in
case of war is bound to create earnest thought
among all classes of people, and especially among
hose who know the horrible sacrifices in life
and health which all wars impose upon humanity

TRUTHS POWDERED WHILE
Riding at Anchor
MR.. MODESTUS
. GLORY BE!
= THEY STILL SING
. SWITCHES PINCH
. TRANSPORTATION

There was a day
When the familiar slogan of the
Railroad magnates-
Was: The Public Be Damned!
Them days are gone forever
Glory Be!
This week, United States Senate
Turned thumbs down on the old
railroad regime
No more special privileges to the
railway wizards
No more rescuing of bankers and
insurance companies
Or any other widows and or
phans"-
Who have been riding the high
horses of railway management
x x X
Railroads have finally become safe
to ride upon
After many years of fighting safety
appliances
After wrecking lives of railway
men driven long hours
After filling the lungs of the public
WlCn not gas
And their eyes with cinders and
smoke
Facing damage suits which threat
ened ruin
They finally began to think about
operating trains
Still keeping weather eye on the
stock markets.
Furnishing private cars to states
men
With pocketfulls of passes to the
politicians
They still sang: The Public Be
Damned!
Then came Henry Elizabeth Ford
Also the Chivvies, and Dodgers, and
Bewicks-
Dollars which used to be given to
railroads
From public bond issues, to build
rail lines
Now began to be spread from coast
to coast for asphalt
Concrete carried more passengers
than steel rails
But when freight began to slip
away from moguls and gondolas-
That was when the switches began
to pinch and holler!
Something which had been a part
of the Rock of Ages
Began slipping sideways and going
away from places
Even other peoples money began
to be afraid
Of what was plainly going to hap
pen to the railroads
Then when. the transcontinental
Air Lines emerged
Railroads went up in the air, in an
other direction.
x X X
Railroads have no excuse for exist
ence-
Except and unless for transporta-
ton
Considered as anything else, they
have been nuisance
Some of those fine big locomotives
have been lovely to look at
Some of their engineering work has
DCCli Sllllpiy ouDlliliC
Because these had to do with the
living objective of the roadways-
They were related, mechanically,
| logically, to transportation
But their overlords thought they had
the world by the tail
Forever!
They forgot: that even Rome fell!
X x X
SO now, what?
The answer must come in terms Of
Transportation.
Nobody cares two whoops about the
financial bookkeeping of it
1t is not matter of competition
between streamliners and air liners
Any more than there is competition
between bicycles and double-headers-
it is time now to let the engineers of
railroading take charge
Turning out the engineers of finance
and mere money problems to grass.
When they have gone through all
the wringers-
Railroads, for transportation, will
still be with us
The dirty water, cess-pools of
finance, will drain off.

he would work half as hard search

gets a job he would be en-

For the first time in film history
an entire musical score was written
and recorded before cameras photo
graphed Z single scene of the picture
for which 1t was intended.
Then the sound track for each
scene was played back" on the set
as that scene was enacted, the idea
being for the players to suit their
performances to the music.
This reversed the usual procedure
of having the composer suit his music
to the completed scenes.
But the usual method is wrong" 4"
Lang insists. THAT way the actors

of 1t long ago."
He points out that in the silent
days director could guide his play
ers throughout scene by speaking
to them; nowadays he has to keep
silent till the scene is over. Through
"pre-scoring," however, he may have
his ideas embodied in the music and
then let the music direct the players.
Kurt We'll, the noted European
music stylist. whose highly original
scoring of the stage play, Johnny
Johnson" attracted wide attention in
the music world, wrote the musical
score.
