En" I "Here asain the helter pkelter, ragtime press comes

in wi'h its unthinking chatter. One may di.-miss that great Eastern journal whose editor, wielding the strongest pen .-since Horace Greeley, hies back and forth between the white house and his golden dome only to take orders, as the mere special leader for presidential

politics; the hit or-ml?? organ of the administration. But here is a tpical expression of the newspapers, which, bavins; no opinions, would deny them to all others. 1 tir.il it in tiie Tennessean, of Nashville, and it reads as follow s :

. .'...!L.Li:. . ' ;..:VJ1'-."-' "- : j 'Mou s the chililrru of Israel 'orty years in the j r:-L'p Ci.-cuiation Than Any Two Other Papers; viiiiei nss because the Israelites had faith In Moses. in the Cirjmet Region.

every wish was granted. " So must the American people have faith In the Moses who is leading them out of the wilderness. 'He that is not for us is against u?.' ' 'Believe that Woodrow Wilson is our leader and that he knows 'he road to the Promised Land. Follow him with the faith of a child. Do his bidding in all things, and ours will be the victory.

I 'This is something worse than hero worship it is j fetich worship. After it servility could fro no further, j fatuous blind folly could offer no counsel moro un- ! patriotic and unworthy. It reads almost treasonable.

The writer forgets the free institutions of this country and proposes in the lieu of them a cartel to Mexfcanize the government and Diazify the presidency. Except that the words have many echoes and appear to he part of a cult organized, engineered and disseminated from Washington, they would not be important. "There is only too much reason to believe them the incipient pronounciamento of a dynastic scheme and propaganda looking to a third term in the White House for its present occupant, and in default of this, for the succession In person of soa-in-law McAdoo, the secretary of the treasury, the director-general of the railways and by reason of these great posts at once the master spirit and conscience keeper of Wall street. If the surmise be true, it is none too early for the people to consider just what it means and portends, and, incidentally, to refresh themselves at the founts of what we call the American system."

All is not running Fmoothly with Mr. McAdoo and government ownership of railroads, if we may believe the rumblings of discontent that come out of Washington via Mr. McAdoo'a office. Some of the complaints are giving the government a good deal of annoyance snd the secretary has in consequence issued the following letter: "Complaints havo reached me from time to time that employees are not. treating the public with as much consideration and courtesy under government control of the railroads as under private control. I do not know how much courtesy was accorded the public under private control, and I have no basis, therefore, for accurate comparison. I hope, however, that the reports of discourtesy under government administration of the railroads are incorrect, or that they are at least confined to a relatively few casea, Whatever may be the merits of these complaints, they draw attention to a question which Is of the utmost importance in the management of the railroads. For many years If was popularly believed that 'tho public be damned' policy was the policy of the railroads under private control. Such a policy is Indefensible either under private control or government control. It would be particularly indefensible under public control when railroad employees ar the (fcrect servan-s of the public. 'The public be damned' policy will in no circumstances be tolerated on the railroads under government control. Every employee of the railroads should take pride in serving ihe public courteously and efficiently. Courtesy costs nothing and when it is dispensed, it makes friend3 of the public and adds to the self-respect of the employee. "My attention has also been called to the fact that employees have sometimes offered as an excuse for th;,:- own shortcomings, or as a Justification for delayed trains or oflier difficulties the statement that 'Uncle Sam is running the railroad now' or 'These ate McAdoo's orders.' etc. Nothing could be more reprehensible than statements of this character, and noihing could be more hurtful to the puccess of the railroad administration or to the welfare of railroad employees themselves. No doubt, those who have made them have done so thoughtlesslv in most instances, but the harm is just as great if a thing of this Fort is done though: lessly as if It Is done delibr rat ply.

The purpose is twofold. The government wants to control the labor market in order to make sure of provides the labor required by essential war industries, and it wants to .stop the private competition for labor which has led to much "labor-stealing" and caused a great deal of industrial confusion.

There should, and doubtless will, be the fullest co-operation between government, industry and labor organizations.
