In the light of these facts the
freezing of wages is neither prac-
tical, workable, desirable nor
necessary. The President has
not asked for it, the nation will
not benefit by it, fair employers
are not demanding it, inequali-
ties would be perpetuated by it,
and organized railway labor,
"the army in overalls," now eff
GENTLY holding one of democra-
cy's battle lines, should not be
called upon to subscribe to it. -

Wage Freezing
Not Necessary
To Curb Buying

Wage freezing is not necessary
to curb excessive buying. In the
first place, railroad workers,
and, in fact, wage earners gener-
ally throughout America, do not
receive luxury wages which per
nit excessive buying; and in the
second place, the wage earners
of this nation are now making
real sacrifices with respect to the
bare necessities of life, to buy
what some people call "War
Bonds" but which we prefer to
consider as "Victory Insurance"

KALAMAZOO AND
WASHINGTON, TOO

A letter on the desk of your
Washington correspondent this
week contained this observation
Just between us girls, we are
mighty glad to be living inu Kala-
mazoo. You may have your Wash
ington.p
Kalamazoo has close to $4,000
population and business is steady
going in that famous Michigan city.
Paper, paper products and parch-
ment are listed at the head of in
dustrial activities that extend from
steel and chemicals to fishing
tackle. Many staff writer's have
built feature stories around Kala-
mazoo and it is not necessary to
doubt its Importance. "Just between
us girls" it's solid, substantial, an
oases, like hundreds Of other places
in all parts of America.
In defense of our Washington, 1t
may be said, that its increase in
population in the past three years
has been fully three times the pop
ulation of Kalamazoo. In fact,
Washington has become so big that
there doesn't seem to. be any way
to determine its size, except by in
cluding greater Washington"
stretching out beyond the borders
Of the District of Columbia into both
Virginia and Maryland. That popu-
lation, all of which is actually
part of Washington, is about l.
500 900.
The District of Columbia was or
iginally 100 square miles, and then
the Civil War shrank it % to 60
square miles-which is still the
area of the District. Actually,
greater Washington" is more than
twice as large as it was when it
was set off from Virginia and Mary
land as the seat of the Federal
Government.
1t isn't the size of the place that
Is disturbing. 1t is the war that has
changed conditions. 1t is the con-
fusion that has grown up under the
war system which has made Wash
ington the head Office to direct the
activities of practically every large
establishments and business in the,
country, and lay down rules and
restrictions, and grant special priv
ileges including thousands Of
things-from sugar to automobiles.
Washingtonians fall in step, like

YES, WE HAVE NO OIL TODAY

Most of the gas stations in the
rationed areas along the entire At
lantic Coast have been closed on
Sundays, and during recent weeks
the majority of stations have put
up mo Gas" signs on Saturdays.
They aren't open at night.
There is talk in Washington to
the effect that this sort of ration
ing might be extended to the whole
United States. But the dissatisfac-
ton of the public is so great in the
East that it is very doubtful whe-
ther the whole country will be re-
stricted.
Reasons given for rationing is
the shortage of rubber-and also
the shortage of transportation. The
ways seem to be open to supple
ment any shortage of transporta-
tion that actually exists. The short
age of rubber is another question.
