LONDON, August 4 (Correepondenoe of the Associated PrsM).—8o many Eng< IIM women have become confirmed smokers that in recent xoonlte railway empioyM have heMtafed to enfwoe the rules against smoking in certain ear< riagss smd it has come to be accepted that if the women passengers do not object every compartment becomes “a

smoking car.” '

The Great Eastern railway, whose general manager is General Henry Thornton, formerly of the Pennsylvania and Long Island systems In America, is the first of the railroads to change the exMting order and move for a return to prewar conditions. By a recent order only such compartments as are designated “smoking" can be used for that purpose and even though all the mtssengers may cons<mt, no concessions are made to women. If they want to smoke they are to be referred to regular smoking compartmenta

Letter Carriers Indorse Proposed Hospital Plan

Hail the women in the fight against high prices! We have had all kinds of food and health secretaries and commissions — local, state, congressional and national ~ and there has been much big talk, and here and there real s^ tlon. Now we may expect more action. ProfitsMS may fake notice that if the women of this country make up their minds to cut down the cost of living, it win be dona The women can prevent unnecessary buying; and they can make gouging both unpopular and unprofitable.

Indianapolis letter carrierii have taken action indorsing the plan of the Marion County Tuberculosis i^soclation for the establishment In Marion county of an advanced-case tuberculosis hospital. A letter written by Charles A. Sammls, acting secretary of branch No. M, National Association of L<e|tor Carriers, has been received by members of toe special hospital cbmimttee appointed by the tuberculosis association. Sol Schlosa is chairman of the special committee and other members are Michael E. Foley, Judgre James A. Collins, Mrs.

The local union of the Bricklayers, Mflksons and Plasterers* International Union of America, and the Indianapolis District Council of Carpenters of Marion County are to discuss the proposed plan for an advanced-case hos-

[Clnctniuitl Bnqulntrl Every individual should be entitled to a reasonable profit on what he produces. It Is with excess profits, unconscionabie profiteering, that the country is at quarrel. The present campaign against high prices is a wonderfuL thing, and its psychological effect already is obvious in a number of instances, but a few profiteers hastily making for sanctuary, all our vociferous outcry against wrongdoing, a few Indictments here and there, do not mean that we shall easily or speedily get to the root of the trouble. Human selfishness is the mainspring of human action, and it has not been killed, even largely influenced, by 2,000 years of ethical teaching. However, it is a matter for congratulation that Ohio signally has initiated a movement which has become nationwide the all-absorbing question among the people and In the halls of iMisIatlon. and now from the city of Cleveland oqmes news that a special grand jury has returned indictments against seven members of the Ohio Fanners’ CoOperative Milk Producers’ Association. If, upon trial, the evidence justifies the cqpvfction of these men, they should be dealt with as hardly as may be possible under present punitive statutea If they are guilty, they belong to the vulture breed of social cormorants. If they are guilty, they have been striking at the heart of the social order. Motherhood is the noblest, holiest calling on this earth, and any sesociation. combination or individual found illicitly or unreasonably Increasing the price of milk, is the foe of motherhood and the potential murderer tt babes. The men und«- indictment may be innocent—they will have their day in eourt^but an aroused public sentiment has ditermtned that in the matter of milk production, at least, the doctrine of strict accountability shall apply.

be made upon the new regime.’ For intelligent and candid Socialists,

as well as for all other serious students, the only solution finally is greater production, higher industrial effioieney. !Now the efficiency of any inaustrlal unit depends first of all upon the ability of the management-of the directing ™ minds.

Naturally, then, the caplUltotlo system tends with all Its force to^he development and discovery of able man^erA To any one acquainted with its day-by-dajr workings It often seems nothing else than a tireless, insatiable hunt for capable men. But under the acid test of the capitalist system the man must actually make good; he must deliver the goods pot In phrases but in

Under any scheme of public. Socialist

or collective ownership and direction of Industry there would te no such acid test and no such Immediate automatld penalties for poor management. When stockholders use bad Judgment in choosing ths management of a railroad or a mill, deficit wipes them out. They are naturally mighty anxious to avoid deficit. If the public owns the railroad or mill, deficit is charged off to the public treasury, explained away in plausible phrases, and nobody experiences any acute personal Inconvenience. Every scheme of public. Socialist or eollectlYe ownership and direction finally comes to that; there Is no big individual reward for good management, no acute individual penalty for bad management—unless, of course, it eventually comes to a Bolshevist case, where collecttvism so demoralizes Industry that a whole pop-

ulation suffers acute penalties.

Compare almost any time the last thirty years the management of tbe city of New York, the city of Chicago

>hla with the

But

management of the biggest bank m each city. If the

been run as the cities wars some sevsrit

with

national

banks bad

personal penalties would have resulted. The pensJities for bad numagement of the city's affairs were diffused ansong a great number of people; no individual was very sensible of them. The bank scheme immediately rewards good management: immediately puniMcs bdd management. No tetter scheme for the discovery and development of go^

management can te devised.
