ISSUED Bnr THE
UNITED STATES
GOVERNMENT
Noted Italian Authority Sayi Ten
I dency After War Will Be
' Railroad Control.
ROME.-—Dr. Maffeo Pantaleoni
who is considered an authority or
systems of government, sees great
J danger for European nations in the
war time tendency toward govern
{ nient control of railroads. He says
J: that after the war the United States
J will shake off such “parasitic ideas.’
| In an interview wiht the Associated
J Press, Dr. Pantaleoni said:
J “Government ownership of rail
J ways is only one of the many afflic
j tions sure to be imposed upon this
J poor old Europe after the war.
j With the war the government has
[ become almighty with us. The gov
j ernment now does everything and
| after the war its encroachments will
j be appalling and bring us near to
; ruin.”
r “The United States is run on diff
erent lines, it was founded on other
I principles, and while it may be
harrassed after the war by bogies
! of government control, it will shake
r them off. The country is too young
■ and strong . Parasitic government
* control ideas attacking it will be
. no more than lice on a big, healthy
dog.
j If I had never been convinced of
Ithe futility of government control,
• | this war would certainly have con
‘! vinced me. I am now sure that the
jless government a nation has the
I better it is for the prosperity of its
people. A government is always
! robbed, always too late in what it
; does> is always betrayed by its em
: ployes.
! “The war waste in Italy has been
i about eight million lire. It is a well
known fact that privately owned
.German railways have always paid
greater dividends than those owned
by the government there. In France
the Western railway, as controlled
I by the government, is a miserable
' and costly failure.
“One of the arguments advanced
in favor of government ownership
is that thereby a nation gets a steady
class of employees who pay debts,
raise families, live modestly, and do
their work for relatively small pay.
This is a fallacy, too. The whole
world is ruled by chance. The great
est wealth of the world, its crops,
depend on the weather. If you can
give a class of people in a nation
a sure thing, remove their chances
of money loss, you do so at the
expense of the other people, of the
farmers, for instance, who must take
great chances. In other words, you
increase the risks of the majority
for the benefit of the minority.
Besides, this class of people with
the sure thing on small pay wind up
by riot earning what they are paid.
It is not their individual fault, but
that of the system.
I repeat, and with the experience
of many years of Europe behind me
that everything a government does
must be badly done, and the de-j
gree of badness depends on the aver
age capacity of the nation doing it.
The postoffice and government tele- j
graph and telephone system of Eu-!
rope are monuments of inefficiency !
and waste.
“The prosperity and welfare of
the whole world in the near future
depends upon the fight which honest
and intelligent people make against
the follies of government control.”;

SIMPLER MEANS

Increase Intensity of Fire, Using

WITH THE AMERICANS—The
simplifying of ordnance and unburd

two of the principal points upon
which the German effort has con
centrated in recent offensive opera
tions. They have employed no new
arms or munition, but have sought
to increase the intensity of fire by
