PUBLIC DEFENSE COMES HRST. A huge volume of dangerous piffle is being uttered in protest against supposed efforts to strike- down fundamental American liberties. Proposed anti-sedition Jaws and governmental activities in suppression c; public enemies who advocate and practice violence are denounced by those who should know better, and s-;.cim arguments advanced to support, claims that

Americans are being deprived of their inalienable-and constitutionally guaranteed rights. Some overheated persons have solemnly declared th.it some proposed legislation would make tho Decl.raiion of independence a seditious document. That i- an extreme view, put forward, we believe, simply t j joint the danger there may be in adopting unwarranted!extreme measures of public protection in a time of great peril. The evil of it is that, it is tantamount to giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Opposition--to lawful methods of combatting the insidious warfare that is being waged against, the people and government of the Tnited States is comparable to obstructing the government in the prosecution of war formaTy declared, as when we drew the sword against Ut-rmany. Of hair-brained political notions, lawfully advocat"d. we need never be in fear. That kind hate been ii'jvanced, debated and voted on time and time again. S -.me of them have gained Quite respectable followngs. Soioh of them hate led ultimately to public benefit. Those which contained no merit fell by the wayside. There is no menace in open, sincere advocacy of political nostrums, however fantastic the latter may be. There is grave danger in the secret agitations of foreign revolutionaries designed to bring about armed uprisings of a minority to seize all power ;nd all property an, 0 nnpose a tyrannical govern-T.v-nt on Americans. We cannot afford to be tender i-i our Treatment of those people. True Americans will be as ready to make .essential sacrifices for the common safety in the necessary wari: re r gainst, the reds as they are temporarily to yield : -roe of their prized rights in order that we' might win ih- war with Germany. When victory is secured we -.hal! get hack everything which for the time being ve tender for vise in the public, defense.

A TIME TO THINK STRAIGHT. The hour is at hand when every railroad employe uuM come to a detTsion and declare himself on the rii.s of the Plumb Plan, writes Editor C'ha pin of The u'road Kmployee. Human niture is ever the same. Kvery remedy r an existing condition is set" forth in glowing terms i.s advocates, while there is an impressive silence ncerning the dangers incident to a isewly proposed stent. It is the oil story of chorsing between evolution id revolution. The torch of constructive advance is

held in the hands of the evolutionist who carefully I threads the pathway and casts into the ditch the boulders that impede progress. The revolutionist dynamites everything in sight, the good and the bad. and then despairs at the debris, chaos and ruin he has wrought. Into every system, political, industrial and otherwise, there creep the enemies that mar broadest, usefulness. Correction and not destruction is the answer. The orchardlst does not cut down the trees that yield his livelihood, but does wage war upon the hurtful insect. Cultivation of the good and extermination of the bad, is the story of civilization's advance, and the preservation of every worthwhile system of government and economics. Common sense would suggest that the railroad employees of the nation recognize the proven values of private ownership and the disadvantages of the Plumb Plan of operation and ownership of the railroads. Available statistics show that 47 per cent of railroad securities are held by the savings hanks of the country. The great life insurance companies, particularly those with millions of industrial policy holders, have heavily invested in the railroads. An upset or destruction of values would prove a calamity to rail road men and their families whose carefully hoarded dollars are in the Ravings banks and whose insurance brings peace of mind because of a profound faith the payment will be made in full upon maturity or in the hour of deepest sorrow. Truly the prosperity of the nation, more than any other industrial system, depends upon the railroads; and to tear down or impair their ability to operate along lines of recognized business procedure, spells hardship, privation and disaster to owners and employees alike. Government ownership, nationalization and socialistic control, are hung about with signals that warn! Will any railroad workingman claim the Post Office employment opportunities of remuneration and promotion that like ability commands in private enterprises? French railroad men rebelled because of low wages and adverse conditions, only to find their strength broken at the point of bayonets wielded by the soldiers of a government which owns the railroads. Russia sits in the shadow and ashes of an

unprecedented rule imposed by the crack-brained visionaries whose socialistic anarchy threatens the peace of the world. The heart of the Plumb Plan invites microscopic investigation. Everybody benefits is the promise. The

public is assured lower rates and the employees high

er pay. Most thinking men would stamp this statement as impossible of achievement. Not a voice has ?ieen raised in the country affirming that increased income has resulted in a decreased cost of living. ' Sarch for the colored gentleman in the wood-pile;

bring forth the Tlumb Plan masterpiece The Three

Croup Control. The Plumb' Plan contains no reward for brains. It proposes to make a triple division of a surplus productiveness which no longer exists, and which could not again be created under this plan. It can only be created under conditions' where men of requisite ability receive both compensation and authority comparable to that given to men of equal ability in other lines of endeavor. American railroad labor has accomplished much

and deserves much, but its present standard of living

is just as much the product of the brains and industry

of railroad managers as it is of the daily output of labor by railroad employees. They will get nowhere

by seeking to ignore this. If the Plumb Plan were put into effect the only

thing which could prevent rates rising and wages fall

ing just the reverse of the promises held forth would

be a permanent alliance between the public and the

management.

Those of f ir vision, sensing an ultimate collapse of the scheftie. find its answer written in large letters

across the horizon of certainty. A final alignment will weld together the two groups, embracing the publie and the managers. The managers to hold their jobs will have consolidated with the group representing the public, and the third group, the classified workers, will find themselves wholly at the mercy of the other two and without redress. The man who thinks straight will welph carefully the warning signals and not lightly kick away the props that give him benefits another system denies.
