Way To Lower Prices

A short time ago the Senate was urged
to clear the way for lower prices by lift
ing some of the governments power to
block railroad freight rate reductions.
The urging came from railroad spokes-
men. It had to do with regulation of rail
road shipments of agricultural and bulk
commodities. At present, regulations
prevent the rails from lowering rates
charged, even when they could do SO on
fair and profitable basis
An Administrations backed bill to cor
rect this situation-to the advantage of
consumers everywhere = is now before
the Senate. 1t would reduce federal
regulation over the minimum level of
rates for these shipments. And there can
be no justified concern as to the results.
For one thing, as the railroad spokesmen
made clear, existing antitrust and inter-

reach new low as far as helping our fell
low man is concerned.
Every state without law protecting
physicians, who act at the scene of an
emergency in the Christian sense of their
duty to their fellow man, should enact
one without delay.
The modern life and our modern world
seems to grow colder and colder and
more impersonal, as the number of gad-
gets and machines increases and as more
and more emphasis is put on speed and
money. Let us not reach the state of af-
fairs when doctors pass the scene Of an
accident or wreck, leaving the injured
and dying to the safe legal method, in
preference to the humanitarian, Christian
approach, which they do not, of course,
choose to do

state commerce laws provide effective re-
straints against any dangers Of predatory
pricing practices. And, for another, the
bill would leave untouched the Interstate
Commerce Commissions powers to block
unjustified increases in those rates once
they had been lowered.
The public, primarily, would be the
gamer from the establishment of policies
which would enable the railroads to meet
competition on more equal terms, and to
make the most of their inherent advan-
tages in pricing their services. That, of
course, holds true as a general principle,
over and beyond the agricultural and bulk
commodities matter The great need in
transportation can be summarized in
phrase-more dependence on competition
among the various carriers, and less on
regulation. Congressional inaction is now
inexcusable.

Here's scheme that know works sue
cessfully, because there's local business
man using one of the electric coffeemak-
ers in question right now.
1t begins with a pencil manufactures
sending a sample of pen out with Sid
ney Herald inscribed thereon. The first
letter suggests that it would be nice if we
would put in an order for 100 or SO of
these fine pens
Now a couple weeks later we receive
a letter that states: "While running SAM
pies on two color pen imprints, our fore
man ran one which included your name.
There is no obligation, but if you can use
the pens we will ship them as per sample
at only 19 cents each for 1S2 pens Put
your OK below and we will comply and
include a FREE electric alarm clock for
your cooperation"
Then note is attached-"Since we al
ready have your name set in type, hope
you can use the pens. If so, I'll be happy
to send you the electric coffeemaker in
stead of the clock"
didn't give them my OK, but suggest
ed they get rid of their bungling foreman.
This is such an old con game that you'd
think they would tire of his constant mis-
takes.

Fer Hate
To the Editor:

TO the Editor:
Yesterday | read Birch Bark

this paper. ii treats on the Arm
ed Forces. But it made me think
back to things that happened in
my teens. I'd hear some adults
say, "lf | saw a sailor coming
down the street, I'd walk to the
other side!" The hatred and con-
tempt in their voices scared me,
but in my teenage world the fu-
ture looked bright and these in
cidents were always forgotten.
With the passing of years, of
course, | reached adulthood.
Then in January of 1888 | proud
ly joined the U. S. Navy Nurse
Corps. While serving my first
tour of duty at the US. Naval
HOSPITAL in Brooklyn on this 80
bed ward filled with sailors and
veterans, the thought came to me
Of the former hate-filled descrip-
tons I'd heard about sailors. All
around me were men dedicated
to the defense of their country
recovering from or awaiting sur
gerry. Men who were brothers or
husbands to women from differ
ent rarts of our beloved country
They were good men, living UP
to the high ideals and traditions
of the Navy. l felt privileged ano
hcnored to be able to take care
of their medical and surgica
needs.
To solve my perplexed state o
mind | asked an experienced
Chief Nurse, why do some peo
pie say such derogatory thing
about sailors?" Her explanation
satisfied me. Here it is. "Becaus
sailors wear a uniform, every
thing they do is noticed. So
one sailor does something ik
get drunk, then ALL sailors ar
drunkards. If that same sailo
was wearing civilian clothes, hi
act wouldn't mean anything
Just another man having dram
too much. So what? Who cares
So the mere fact of a uniforr
makes the difference. The sailo
is a drunkard and the civilian
just having some fun" Now

Reflections From An
Old Mirror

This Cuban-Russian love affair
is becoming something pretty
serious for the United States.
One can only wonder why a
happy-go-lucky people like the
Cubans allowed themselves to
get into such a jam. They were
made free sixty-five years ago
but have never been able to es-
tablish a stable government.
However, we as a nation, can
rot take any 'holier than thou
position in the matter. We had
pretty fierce civil war of our
own after we had been in exis-
tence for some eighty-five years.
That was over one-hundred years
ago, and some of our rebels
would like to resume the fighting
now judging from some of the
warlike talk they make.
Sometimes it seems man is
only an animal that has become
crafty instead Of wise. If he
were not so blamed smart he
would still do his fighting with
his fists, Or with clubs. and the
casualty lists would be much
shorter.
We had an old milk COW, one
time, with a pair OF sharp horn

In 10 3 it's skin colorl The
same tragic story. May l ask
the men responsible for Birch
Bark, if our country went to war
tomorrow, what efforts they'd
make to be certain no Negro
went out in defense of our be-
loved country? How many of you
would insist that you yourselves
replace them? Remember, It
could mean coming back legless
or armless or blind or all three!
And not coming back alive, but

May | suggest to you Birch
Barkers who have never left the
prairie to visit some of our largo
Army, Navy or Veteran Hospitals
in our country and see some OF
these Negro men recovering from
their wounds received in World
War II. Some will never recover.
They're manned for life! Would
you insist if it were possible that

Kenneth Chapman in his Chappy's
Chatters commented briefly on the re-
cent conflict of interests in the Library
Board and the subsequent removal OF
some magazines and their return.
Lately I've been doing some reading
about this problem and it would appear
that this practice is on the increase in the
United States. This apparently reflects
the growth of a widespread but mistaken
idea that someone ought to be telling
others what to read. In 1854, for example,
Hans Christian Anderson's beloved fairy
tales were stamped in red ink, ''For Adult
Readers Only" by order of the Illinois
secretary Of state Mark Twain's Huckle-
berry Finn" possibly Americas great
est novel, was banned in New York be-
cause an Influential organization disliked
one of its characters. Other examples, in
volving even such masterpieces as plays
by Shakespeare, are numerous.
