much greater in the East than the South.
Hence, the rates are lower

much greater in the East than the South.
Hence, the rates are lower.
To this argument the South says the
railroads would get more of these profit
able classes of freight in the South if
rates were lower Railroads, the South
contends, do not wish to revise rates
downward in the South because they
want to see Southern products manufac-
tured in the East. because that means
longer freight hauls. In some cases it
means tWo-Way hauls, for the finished
products are sometimes shipped back
into the South.
1t is also claimed that Southern rail-
roads are dominated by Eastern roads
that want to keep manufactures in their
territory and keep them from moving
elsewhere.
Thus the issue, briefly summarized,
presents itself. AS it is fought out on
sectional lines, the South will find
champion on the Interstate Commerce
Commission in the person of Mr.. ALL
dredge. His appointment is an answer,
in part at least, to Southern demands for
more representation on the commission.
So he would bring to the place to which
he has been named legalistic as well
as practical knowledge of many of
the problems confronting the Interstate
Commerce Commission. He has, ltoo,
as it has been pointed out, social
philosophy which transcends mere eco
nomics. Furthermore, he believes that
it is fundamental purpose of the law
regulating common carriers, as the
United States Supreme Court once
pointed out, Ito compel the carrier as
public agent to give equal terms to all'

tors He sees in these artificial barriers
to the free flow of commerce social sig
nificances that are-or were until re-
cently-lost upon most persons. For
him, tables of freight rates are definite
measurement of material progress.
Conditions Raise Questions.
Why is it that the South, the richest
part of the country in natural resources.
has an average income about half of
what the national average is?
Why is it so backward in education?
Why do its young people migrate to some
other section?
Something must be wrong. Mr.. ALL
dredge is frank. He is quick to admit
that higher freight rates are only one of
the numerous causes. But he has a
logical mind. He believes in approach
ing problems in successive stages.
Eventually, in this way, problems will be
solved or will solve themselves.
So his approach to solving the South's
problem-the Nations No. / economic
problem, President Roosevelt has said
will be by attacking first that which is
apparent-freight-rat differentials. He
regards them as a tremendous barrier to
the free flow of commerce He sees the
South's immediate need as getting rid of
them
He reasons this way:
The South has been forced by various
circumstances very largely into raw
material economy That is true not only
OF the South, but also to an even greater
extent of the Southwest.
This situation has very decided effect
upon agriculture and industry. High
freight rates, he believes, not only affect
receivers and shippers; they also have
an important and far-reaching effect
upon the prosperity and welfare of a
region.
Human Skill Seen as Factor.
Getting at the larger social view of the
matter, Mr.. Alldredge would say that the
chief reliance of any region or section,
from an economic point of view, is in
the application of its human skill to it's
natural resources. That implies, of
course, that each region or section should
be able to convert at least substantial
part of its own natural resources into
higher. forms of goods. In this way it
can obtain the benefits flowing from the
manufacturing process.
To do this however, the region must
find ample markets for its goods That
is where transportation barriers in the
form Of regional differences and dis
tinctions in freight rates have their i'm
mediate bearing. They impede and OBJ
struct the free flow of manufactured
goods from sections where the adverse
rates prevail.
This has been rather generally recog-
nized. Joseph B. Eastman as Federal
co-ordinator of transportation made q
report to the Seventy-third Congress in
which he described the regional differ

Since the disappearance of Czecho-

King Carol down to the youngest army
officer knows that unless something hap
pens in Western Europe. Rumania will
have to fight for her life sometime in
the course of the next 18 months.
The Danubian kingdom is in an un-
fortunate geogra phical position. Time
and again in its long history it suffered
the invasion of the barbarian hordes
which penetrated from the plains of
Asia into Europe. Hence the resigned
attitude of the majority of Rumanians.

Iron Guards Built Up.
Hitler paid good deal of attention
to the Danubian country before he
tackled Austria and Czecho-Slovakia.
Millions of marks have been spent in
Bucharest and other centers of the king
dom. A powerful anti-Semitic organi-
zation, the Iron Guards, was established
in 1884. The ignorance and latent anti
Semitism of the Rumanian peasantry
was intensively exploited. Yet these
anti-Jewish Iron Guards of Corneliu
elea Codreanu mostly murdered Aryans
The Jews were merely a bait to rouse the
rural population and the students. The
actual aim of the controlling powers in
Berlin was King Carol.
Rumania is now a dictatorship. After
having tried a constitutional form of
government, Carol realized that he could
not bring the ship of state into port
under such auspices. There were some
thing like II parties in Rumania, whose
leaders were jockeying for power regard
less of the consequences of their promises
to the ignorant electorate. At one time,
a group of politicians were promising
the cancellation of all debts to banks
and private individuals And the peas
antry was promised so much free land
that it would have been necessary for
the Rumanian government to conquer
at least half of the territory of its neigh
bors to fulfill these pledges. Yet the
electorate believed in the warm words OF
office seekers and voted for these silver
tongued orators.
The Iron Guards, assisted by German
propaganda and ample funds from Ber-
lin, were gaining ground. Their mysti-
cism appealed to the ignorant peasantry,
particularly since they represented them
selves as the saviors of the dynasty from
the clutches of international JeWry. But
their purpose was to overthrow the mon

Tilden dress, Pattern 914. Turning
to the back first, there's neck-to-
waist buttoning that's saucy and
flirtatious, and nice back-swinging
fulness to the two-piece bias skirt.
The sash may be tied In big, crisp
bustle-bow, especially attractive If
you've left the neckline high and
collarless. Or you might prefer to
cross the sash and bring it around
to tie in front. A style that goes
well with rounded revers made, per-
haps, in contract. And here's some
thing really new; tucks come from
the neck in front to hold gracefully
draped fullness all through the bod
ice down to the very sides. For con-
trast, the space just below the high,
pointed waist seam Is left fiat and
smooth, giving a rnarvelously slim
look to your diaphragm. A wonder

he goes on destroying things he will soon lose pride
in his nice home He will also understand when we
explain that to buy new lamp shade father can't buy

go up in the attic for while.
