Our Railroads May
Lead the WOrld-Bul

At the request of the French
railroads, packing and shipping
experts of the American railroads
are showing Europe how to pack
fragile and valuable articles in an
economical and efficient manner.
Outstanding examples OF packing
and shipping methods. as develop
ed by the Association of American
Railroads, are now being displayed
at the Paris Trade Fair, and will
shortly start on tour in a special
train.
This is one more example of how
American railroads lead the world
in service and efficiency. That
leadership is a fine testimonial to
the work of the railway manage
merits, both past and present. and
it is all the more remarkable in the
light of the grave problems the in
dustry has had to face.
We have steadily laden the in
dustry with increased labor, tax
and other costs, all OF which have
inflated the expense of operation.
We have also forbidden them to
charge adequate rates. We have
regulated them in every phase Of
operation. We have subsidized
some of their competitors and let
others 60 unregulated or half.regu-
lateo. We have hamstrung them
with a maze of laws and admins.
trative rulings so that arrangements
in many cases have become mere
tigureheads, and we have turned a
deaf ear to their requests for relief,
no matter how necessary or reason
able.
And in spite of all that. the
American railroad industry is Civ
ing us the best rail service in the
world, That is fine achievement
but 1t must be pointed out that
if the current trend continues it
will become impossible for the in
dustry to exist, much less go for
ward. We Ccn't refuse it living
wage and expect it to serve US with
maximum efficiency. We can't
punish it with legislation and regu-
lation while We pamper its COM
petitors, and expect it to keep
going as if all were well. The gov
ernment must take decisive action
if Americas tremendous stake in
rail transportation is TO be protect

jects. Az the multitude gets used
to an attitude Of neutrality, as more
and more numerous opportunities to
repair the damaged national econ
omy happen to come forward. q
state Of affairs is gradually brought
into being which bids fair to become
permanent.
As to the activity shown by Ital-
ian diplomacy in the Danubian and
Balkan area at the present moment,
1t does not enable the foreign spec
tator to foresee its ulterior develop
ment. Does Italian diplomacy
mainly aim at protecting the Dam
ubian and Balkan states against the
inroads Of Russian influence, or is it
directed above all against the sys-
TEN for the maintenance of the
status quo, OF which Turkey has
become an active center? A good
deal depends upon the answer to
that question.

No. l are to be trusted, the cabinet
as constituted today will still less
than the former cabinet follow In
the wake Of German policy.
Men Of Action Coming In.
School No. 2 does not 60 as far as
to pretend that adopts Of the Ger
man alliance have entered this
ministry. But 1t insists that the new
ministers are, above all, men Of
action and that it will not be in
keeping with their mood to indulge
in. a hand-to-mouth policy.
Ettore Mutt, who becames secre-
tary of the Fascist party, has fought
all through the Ethiopian and
Spanish campaigns in the air force.
Between 1919 and 1922 he was the
Fascist chief who succeeded in
winning, by brutal deeds, the prov
ince Of Ravenna to the dictatorial
party.
Gen. Luigi Russo, placed in COM
mand of the militia, achieved no.
toriety in the capture of Bilbao.
Alessandro Pavolini, put in charge
of press and propaganda in place
Of Alfleri, enlisted for service in
Ethiopia and shone on a fighting
plane.
More noteworthy perhaps than
the advent of these warriors is the
departure of Felice Guarneri and
Stefano Benni, respectively, in
charge of the exchange department
and of the ministry of communica-
ton. Both were representative of
what is left of conservative capital
ism. In the past, Guarneri had
been the moving spirit of the syndi-
cate of defense of italian stock
companies, and BenM of the Met
allurgists' Federation. They are
gone, and, as a result, the Fascist
party spirit of bold social expert
ment may be given fresh impetus.
Thus, the new blood infused into the
cabinet is certainly not a languid
blood.
Let us leave there the two sets Of
commentators. It is hardly dis
puted by any one acquainted with
Italian conditions that, whenever
Italian policy has to be determined
for good, Mussolini and he alone
will assume the supreme respon-
sibility and make his own will known
straightaway. He alone will weigh
the advantages to be won, as against
the risks to be incurred, and con-
front the means at his disposal with
the ends to be achieved.

ton. A dictator, however omnipo-
tent he may be, however secure in

Experts Are Divided.
On Significance Of
Duce's Cabinet Shift
Chonge Seen Affecting
Future Foreign Policy
In Practical Woy
BY PERTINAX.

PARIS, Nov. 2 (N.A.N.A).-Since
the progress of the Anglo-Franco-
German war will be affected by the
course to be followed by italian
policy. which was only Professionally
defined on September /, the recon-
struction of the Fascist cabinet at
tracts the keenest attention.
Comments in the present circum-
stances are necessarily cautious, they
may be summarized as follows:
The Fascist expression commonly
used to describe the dismissal of old
ministers and the appointment of
new ones is that there has been a
change of the guard" It is intended
to convey that, under the Fascist re-
gime, ministers do not fall into dis
favor, but, from time to time, they
have to make room for successors,
because every Fascist of outstanding
merit or ability must in turn serve
at the helm.
But, assuming that such an ex-
PLANTATION means something, it does
not alter the hard fact that, in a
juncture as critical as the present
one, the selection by Premier Mus
solini of some men in preference to
others cannot be devoid of practical
significance regarding future devel-
opments of Italian foreign policy.
Two Schools of Commentators.
To appreciate the implications of
the italian cabinet shake-up two
schools of commentators can be dis
tinguished.
According to one, the policy of
abstention and neutrality initiated
in Rome when Germany waged war
on Poland two months ago seems
likely to be strengthened when due
account is taken of the personalities
of the outgoing ministers and off,
cials and of the men who have been
called upon to replace them.
Among the former, Dino Alfieri,
minister of popular culture, and 1t.
Gen. Achille Starace, secretary Of
the Fascist party, are conspicuously
ranked among the most jealous pro-
moters of the so-called iron pact of
May %. A similar remark applies to
Gems. Alberto Pariani and Giuseppe
Vale, who in the past have shared
in all the military negotiations with
the German high command. More
over, the implicit confirmation of
Count Ciano as minister of foreign
affairs and the substitution of Mar
shal Rodolfo GRAHAM for Gen. Pa
riani at the head of the general
staff of the Italian Army are very
striking by themselves to substan-
tiate the same Interpretation Of
Mussolini's choice.
Count Ciano 1--WE have mentioned
1t more than once in previous dis
patches) was perhaps chiefly the one
responsible last August for the de
facto rupture of the iron pact. AS

Mississippi it has been found that
about % per cent, or one out of four,
of the negro population have syphilis
and as about one-half of syphilis is
acquired without laciverous living, it
stands to reason that where the per-
centage of negro population is high,
the incidence of syphilis in the white
population would be even greatey
than three per cent. On a basis of
our computed population there are
about 5000 cases of syphilis in Hol
mes county. We may expect about
one-fourth Of this number to show
definite evidence of brain or cen
trail ervou system syphilis and, of
course, syphilis is our greatest cause
of insanity. Syphilis is also the great
est aus of heart disease in the
middle-aged individual.
Syphilis has been very often spok-
en- of as a blood disease but this
idea has originated because of the
fact that it is much easier to take
a sample Of blood for a diagnosis
rather than take some other tissue
from the body. AS a matter of fact,
we know definitely that syphilis eff
fects every organ and part Of the
body. Syphilis is very, very seldom
