those conquests gave him in 1889.
Some Congressman are saying
that this is as much of war move
by the United States as if Russia
sent men and money into Mexico.
That just is not historically true.
Russia has never had a Monroe
Doctrine covering the Mediter-
ranean. It has not held the same
relationship to Greece or Turkey
that the United States does to
Mexico. And the United States
would go in by invitation of the
Greek andTurkish Governments.
This action need not necessari-
ly lead to war any more than
does the effort of the United
States to hold a line in Korea, or
Japan, or Germany. Any resist
ance to Russian pressures to ex-
tend Communism can eventually
lead to war. And so, too, can the
extension Of totalitarian regimes.
The issue will not be found
there. Nor by belatedly thinking
about what a pleasant world it
was when Britain was the in
ternational policeman. Nor even
by complaining about the undeni-
ably wretched character of the
Greek Government. The issue
will be discovered by looking the
alternatives full in the face. That
suggested by Joseph P. Kennedy
of letting the Greeks get their
fill of Communism would be more
appealing if we had one clear ex-
ample of a people being able to
free themselves from Commun-
ism when they had had their fill.
Let Americans ask themselves
a few questions:
l. Is the area vital to the
security of American ideals and
interests? We should answer-It
may be no less so than when the
United States considered opening

The GREEK ISSUE

The American people are GER
tainly taking no warlike posture
in their reluctantly developing
support of aid to Gre zee and
Turkey. They have a fervent
desire to avoid war. But they
understand that keeping out Of
war cannot be the sole criterion
of American policy. If that were
all, the United States would soon
slip into a peace-at-any-price
position.
Moreover, we cannot assume
that aid to Greece and Turkey
means war with Russia, There is
at least as much reason for be-
lieving that it could mean peace.
We cannot say positively that
war with Germany would have
been prevented had Nazi expans-
ionism been halted promptly by
challenging the seizure of the
Rhineland. But we know the
Germans would have retreated at
that time. We do not know that
Hitler would have lost his grip on
the Germans if firm opposition
had stopped his course of peace
ful'' conquest. We do know that
if war had come in 1886, he
would have to fight without the
resources and political support

When serious boxcar shortage last Fall
blocked the full movement of new grain
and other commodities to markets, Great
Northern then gave shippers in its territory
indisputable facts behind that deplorable
situation.
Today - seven months later - Great
Northern is obligated to advise shippers that
there has been no improvement in the box
car supply on its lines. Factually, the car
situation now is worse than in August,
and the railway proposes to again tell why.
Great Northern is not receiving its de-
served, proportionate share of boxcars be-
cause other lines, principally those in
the East, are using them.
This railway owns %, 789 boxcars, very
large number of them top-grade, built es
pecially for hauling grain, forest products
and other commodities requiring protection
from weather..
On March 10, 1o47, Great Northern had
on its line only 1877 boxcars, which repre-
sented ST. per cent of the railways total
ownership. The important fact in those
figures is that only 1898 Of the 1877
cars were Great Northern-owned. The
other 1O,414 toxcars on the railway on that
date belonged to other railways, and far too
many of them were unfit for transporting
grain, flour and dressed lumber.
Where are 2O,466 Great Northern box
cars, which are so desperately needed by
shippers along the railway?

Boxcars do a lot Of travelling. They roll
Yet, Great Northern has strong convictions,
based on observations and Association of
American Railroads statistics, that most of
our truant cars are working for lines East of
the Mississippi River.
The association reported on Febru-
airy l (the most recent figures available)
that boxcar possession on all rail-
roads in the Eastern and Allegheny ter
ritories, then was 11O.1 and 1881 per
cent, respectively, of ownership.
The same association, of which Great
Northern is member, consistently has
promised relief for shippers on tho
railway-ard with equal Conscience
has failed to effect any appreciable i'm
provement in getting our own cars
back home.
Lack of materials for new car construc-
ton has, of course, contributed to the box
car headache. Great Northern has been un-
able to obtain materials for building 500 new
boxcars, authorized almost year ago.
The railway industry has been told that
an increasing amount of steel and lumber
will be available for new car construction.
1t will be a year or more before enough
boxcars can be built to bring the supply
back to normal.
Meanwhile, Great Northern intends to
continue its daily fight for an equitable sup
ply Of boxcars-its own, preferably-for
shippers on the railway.
