as ''The Grapes of Wrath" has brought home to us. Again 1t sobers us to think that in the face of war and the national emergency and all these present baffling problems, there are the old, old problems of unemployment, debt, depression, which are doubtless waiting for us around the corner when the war is over. To take up the slack of un- employment with armament pro- grams is not solving the problem, only postponing 1t. Whatever lies ahead we must surely be brought to the point where, as Christian people, we think far beyond per- sonal needs and realize our full re- sponsibility for all our fellow Chris tians and oil our fellow citizens.
 We hear great deal these days about planning for the future. We see the folly of policies of drift. Yet we see also the dangers con- nected with grandiose plans and schemes which seem to depend for their success on some form of regi- mentation. The best insight on this matter I have discovered if1 the sug- gestion that what we need more than plans is a pattern. Plans are often mistaken and dangerous if based merely on human reason. What we need above all else is a pattern upon which all plans can be based. We need a vital pattern of life and thought. We need a sense of something given to God, g brotherhood enterprise based on the principles of the. Kingdom of God.

their employees ifl order to avert c threatened nationwide strike, and this alone will add to railroad costs next year approximately 926o, o,000,- 900, not including the resultant tn- creased payroll taxes Of about 9iG,- 100000. The total increased oper- ating expenses are estimated to be at least c million dollars c day more than fiji 1e4i. {.
 Tn order to meet these increased expenses and keep the railroad plant abreast of demands, the railroads must have commensurate earnings. For this reason, rate increases are essential at this time. Average rall- road freight rates are now slightly more than nine-tenthS Of q cent per ton-inile, CT 26 per cent less than they were 20 years ago, and average passenger fares are the lowest iti history-i.7H4 cents per mile.
 To the railroads, l042 presents both c challenge and an opportunity. If they obtain the materials they re- quiFe, they will continue to fulfil their pledge to the nation to meet to the fuil the demands of com. merce and the needs of national de- fenge."

The railroads have demongtrat cd, if evidence be needed, that the, can and will do their part in sue cessfully prosecuting the war. Il 1041, they did the greatest trans portation job that has ever beer done by any carrier in the world And they did this without car short. age, congestion or delay.
 104l STATISTICS
 ARE IMPRESSIVE
 Look at the record of what the raiirodas accomplished during thC past year;
 They handled an estimated 470,. 000,oo0,o00 ton-iniles of freight-ar all-tirne high.
 They loaded during the peak per- Tod more than oo00o0 cars Q week. c job that many people thought could not be done.
 They handled approximately 2e,- FOG, 100000 passenger miles the greatest number in any year since 1929.
 They handled more than tive and q half million members of the armed forces of the United States while maintaining their regular pas. scnger service.
 They delivered more than C inil- lion and q half cars of freight to government defense construction projects, and did this 60 well that no time was lost because of any failure of rail transportation.
 They delivered export freight which ct times equalied, if not sur- passed. the peak volume that passed through the major ports during World War 1.
 They turned ifl other outgtands ing transportation performances such as the moving of two large wheat crops at the same time.
 0n tho financial side, the Fail- road story for the year can Dc briefed as follows:
 Total operating revenues approxi- mated 9B,360, 600 ,000-an increase Of 246 per cent over lo40 and the largest aggregate revenues record- cd since 1929, when the total was 9e.270, ,620,B44.
 Net railway operating income was about one billion dollars ag come pared with se82, ,l33, ,47e in i040 and Si, ,261 ,697 ,038 in 1929, while net iil- come after fixed charges amount cd to approximately $500 600 900, CT more than 9300.OO0, 600 over i040. and about s3oO 100000 less than in 1929.
 Operating expenses for the year also rose substantially. and they are estimated at @3,GG0 .000, 900, CT 18B per cent more than in i040. The ratio of operating expenses to reve- nues averaged about 68 per cent. Railroad taxes scared to new heights --S660 .000, ,000-which was 70 per cent above the preceding 12 months and Si68, 900 900 greater than in 1929, the next largest year. These taxes took approximately ten and c half cents of each dollar of operating revenues--a greater proportion than for any previous year in the history of the railroad industry. LOOK FOR 10 PER CENT INCREASE IN TRAFFIC
 Concerning prospects for the com- ing year, there is every reason to be- lieve that rail traffic will increase at least 10 per cent. While this would mean greater railroad reve- nues, operating expenses are certain to rise sharply, particularly because of the increased wages and added expenses incident to wartime op- eration.
 The railroads, as the result Of nies dlatory efforts by government agen- eles, granted the wage demands Of

Organic Democracy
 Needed Says Pastor
People Must Learn to Think in Terms of Community and Common Welfare Claims Rev. Dr. J. C. Walker

This new year of l942 that lie.
 netore us is no ordinary year: it i:
 one or the most fateful in the his.
 kory of Mankind", stated Rev, pr
 John 0. Walker, Second Congrega- tlonal pastor, yesterday morning in ms sermon, 'The Pattern for thC New Year.,
 pr. Walker said in part: A few ialse choices here and there by men m high estate might quite conceiv- ably change the history of the next hundred years. It is with no light heart that the thoughtful man ol woman faces the year of our Lord lS42. And the Christian hopes and prayers that before the year has passed the whole aspect of the world situation will have so changed that 1t will seem less like sacrilege to speak of 1942 as a year of our Lordl
 There are a great many people in this world who seem to have very little faith in themselves or in any, body else. They regard life as q struggle, and a very bitter struggle at that. They have no hope that life can be greatly changed or iin- proved. In fact they say in so many words, You can't change human nature" the inference being that human nature is essentially and in- evitably self-centered, hopeless, and helpless. Now St. Paul knew better. He had experienced a change that had transformed his whole life and made a new man of him. He found his life organized around Christ, centered in Christ. He was caught up in the life of the Christian fel- lowship, in the service of the Chris tan church. He was no longer alone in 0 hostile world. He was part of the great army of the Living God. He was on his way to the shining city and in the company of men and women who, like himself, were strong in faith.
 We are hearing much in these days about national unity and the cause of democracy and feel sure that we are destined to hear more. Let 1t be said that there again we must remember that we stand and fall together. We have been griev- ously mistaken, many of us, in our conception of democracy. We have supposed that democracy was a form of government where men were free to do pretty much as they pleased. 1t was assumed that in a democracy a man might fend for himself, look out for himself, please himself, cooperate or refuse to co- operate as he saw fit. Free enter prise was supposed to be SO free that 1t was every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost, when unfortunately the devil of tln- employment and poverty proceeded to do. Now VIC are beginning to realize that individualistic demcc- racy must give way to some kind of organic democracy where we must learn to plan and to think increas- ingly in terms of community and tho common welfare. Never before In the history of the world were so many people on the move, so many refugees, so many homeless. Most of this comes as the result of World war, But we are also begin- ming to realize that here in Asner- lea we have 1ore migrants today than ever before. Some of these migrants are in good circumstances and in the present emergency are filling responsible positions, some of our migrants are in a pitiful state

F. {. {. Gathers Data
On Press Ownership
OF Radio Stations
Formal Subpoenos Are
Used to Check Records
Of Companies Involved
By WILLIAM ]. WHEATLEY

Investigators of the Federal Com
munications Commission have been
sent to all parts of the country,
furnished with commission sup
poenas, to gather information to be
used in forthcoming F. c. c. hear
ings on newspaper owned and con-
trolled radio stations. The issuance
of formal subpoenas in "legis-
lative" hearing on which to base a
policy or new rules was declared
by lawyers familiar with the practice
of the commission to be unusual.
The commission has surrounded
the issuance of the subpoenas with
considerable secrecy and the sub
poenas have not been made a part
of the public docket. Commissioner
Ray C. Wakefield, who has been
authorized to sign the documents,
further than to admit that he had
issued a number of subpoenas in
this case, declined to discuss them.
Commission Secretive.
When the general counsel of the
commission could not be reached
for information concerning the pa
pers, the matter was put up to the
