The sophisticates might call it corny, instead of tender, but they don’t rate the space it would take to deride them. Injected into one of the breaks in the show was an announcement concerning a little child that was suffering from lukemia. These two examples of human suffering, additionally poignant because they happened to concern little children, makes one stop and think. What have WE done to capitalism? What have WE done to a great land, a great dream? Is the driving force behind the majority of Americans to appreciate freedom, to love our land, and, because we know freedom from fear and freedom from want, to help alleviate the suffering of the world, no matter where it may be? Let’s be honest with ourselves. The main ambition of most people in this day and age is to find a comfortable niche in life, make as much money as possible, and cling for dear-life to any hour of pleasure they might be able to buy with that money. More time and effort are spent on plans for a wonderful vacation than worrying whether a child in the slums of some city might starve to death tonight. What have WE done with a system when the government consistently pours millions of dollars into other countries, but doesn’t seem to care whether the money enriches a few of the top officials or actually does some good for the people of that country? What have WE done with a system when some top businessmen figure every way they can to cheat on taxes, or when some of the labor unions are run by thugs who merely want power? r What have WE done With a system when we try to escape our moral obligations by running to -buy every tawdry bit of entertainment we can, and v don’t even remember how to relax and have good honest fun? The answers do not lie in changing the system. We have the finest form of government yet devised by man — the trouble is that we too seldom realize it. In this land of plenty, we take plenty for granted, forgetting the suffering and sacrifice that brought us this plenty, forgetting that the places in the world that do not have freedom have an overabundance of suffering, forgetting that our plenty, our time and our concern could help stop some of that suffering. The answer can be found in the necessity of a change in the attitude of the people, not the system. It is not a question, any longer, of what is our national purpose, but do we have a national purpose. Why do little children suffer? Editorial Writer Today John G. Heller

Rail Workers May Lose Jobs * Due To Mergers WASHINGTON (UPI) — Rail workers employed’ by railroads planning a merger today faced the possibility of losing their jobs as a result of a pattern-setting decision by the Supreme Court. The justices ruled 8-1 Monday that if employes are appropriately compensated they need not be kept on after a merger takes place. Chief Justice Earl Warren, author of the opinion, said the law h&) been interpreted that way for 20 years by the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) with all concerned in apparent agreement. Because congressional signposts point in the same direction, he said, the court was unwilling to order a change. Justice William O. Douglas disThe railroad job security case arose from the merger of the Erie Railroad with the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western. The job protection afforded by the ICC. which included full pay to discharged workers, was attacked by the Railway Unions Executive Association. Other merger applications now before the ICC include control of the Baltimore and Ohio by either the Chesapeake and Ohio or the New York Central; of the Western Pacific by either the Southern Pacific or the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe; and the Lehigh Valley by the Pennsylvania Railroad. „ .. In addition, the Northern Pacific and Great Northern are seeking to merge as are the Seaboard Airline and the Atlantic Coast Line, and the Norfolk and Western and the New York, Chicago and St. Louis (Nickel Plate).
