THE PARKER BILL. |
Representative Park’s railroad consoli
dation bill differs from the Cummins bill
which provides for a voluntary period of
only five years, and requires the Interstate
Commerce Commission to promulgate a
plan for the completion of such consolida
tions as it deems desirable.
The Parker bill provides that at the ex
piration of seven years it shall be the duty
of the Interstate Commerce Commission to
report to Congress the extent to which uni
fications have taken place in accordance
with the act, and its recommendations for
further procedure.
It declares also that the general policy
of the country is to provide for an adequate
and efficient transportation sendee to pre
serve weak and short lines, to unite the ear
ners into a number of strong and efficient
and well-balanced systems that will main
tain existing routes and channels of trade
and commerce, and to preserve executive
competition in service, moving freight and
passengers at the lowest rate compatible
with adequate and efficient transportation i
service.
You can say one thing for the “common
mind” sneered at by highbrows. It's the
one you find common sense in.
CONGRESSIONAL VAGARIES
The House of Representatives passed a
ten-year building program, but it balks at
anything like a real reforestation program.
POLITICAL AID BILLS
Why hasn’t some congressman given
the proper name to these farm relief meas
ures and called them politicians’ aid bills.
Naturally you have noted the tremen
dous volume of coal legislation passed by
Congress since the boys in Pennsylvania de
cided to call the matter off.
FORMER GOV. LOWDEN.
Former Gov. Lowden of Illinois, who is]
supposed to have his eye on the Republican ■
presidential nomination in 1928 as the espe
cial champion of the farmer, will be 67
years old in that year and will be 68 by Mar.
4,1929. Not a great age, of course, but still
one unusual for an occupant of the White
House. La Follette was older when he made
his run in 1924, but everybody knew that he
had no chance to win.
Applications for places in the citizens’
military camps for the coming summer are
about 4,600 belowr the total a year ago. Ap
plications this year to date are barely above
20,000.
Folks might as wrell lie about us as to
tell so many disagreeable truths.
Love makes the w^orld go round, besides
turning a lot of people’s heads.
Another paradox is that only those W'hu
remain slaves to art become its masters.
Anyway we are getting a more intelleo
tual class of people into our penitentiaries. 1
Hurrah!
