PE0BIN0 THE KAILI10ADS. Announcement thrvt the sen a to interstate commerce committee will soon begin an investigation of railroad" affairs Is not surprising;, ami Indications are ti-at such an Investigation, if conducted on a strictly business basis, cannot come tco oon. The financial condition of tfy) railroads seems to ho becoming more serious. KepTesentatlves of the leading railroad unions have asked President Harding to call a conference for consideration of the differences between the managers of the railroads and the employes, and the association of Investors In railroad securities has taken similar iictlon. Any probing which the senate Interstate commerce committee undertakes should be along the line of general needs of the railroads, with no specific commission, or of wage disputes, consideration of which is given to the railroad labor board under the Each-Cummins law. If the senate committee simply opens the vcay for railrcad executives and representatives of employes to make charges of had faith and declarations of refusal to make any concessions In the interests of the public, as was done before the labor board in Chicago, little good will ccme from the proposed probe of railroad conditions. One hundred out of two hundred railroads reporting to the interstate commerce commission for January and February state that they failed to earn operating: expenses and taxes. Net earnings of the other roads were much reduced. The railroads are a grea national Institution, and it Is the duty or congress to see that they are operated in the Interest of the public. The Industrial depression is mostly responsible for the loss In revenues, but other conditions contribute to the uncertainty of railroad operation.

fering from malnutrition; that education is failing and warmth and clothing are lacking on the cold northwestern border. Yet in western North Dakota and in eastern Montana, according to reports from Fled Cross workers, famine has been breaking down those defenses of civilization that American pioneers have raised against the desert. Tor four rainless, cropless years the farmers of that region, mostly of Ilish, Finnish, Russian and Scandinavian descent, have struggled with ill success to maintain their families. For many reasons the people of this country cannot afford to allow this condition to continue in the Dakota bad lands or elsewhere. The first is the obvious humane reason of preserving life. Another Is the need of guarding the progress that has been made In developing the desert regions of the country. Territory once opened must be maintained, as business is maintained over its depressions, by credit, if the permanence of American progress is to be assured. Already the American Red Cross has spent $300,000 In the relief of suffering in the district. Relief measures are appropriate enough so far as they go, but constructive measures that will prevent such m-od of relief should be taken.

The -Passing -Show

TINKERING WITH THE LAW. With quite a number of state legislating ia s-o.s-sion the last few months, the country has had a demonstration of law making and law repealing that has probably never been equaled. The activities of the legislators may be accepted as an indication of the uncertainty of the public mind as well. Measures which less than five years ago were hailed as marked advances In legislation are being sent to the discard by the legislatures and other measures are being enacted. To the average man It appears as though the business of law making is being very much overdone. The public has not become even partially familiar with a bit of legislation until it Is repealed or altered In a way that makes It necessary for radical changes to be made in the methods of doing business. Most citizens would probably be just as well satisfied if their legislature would meet, pass the appropriation bills, and adjourn. Much of the legislation that is enacted meets no general demand, but Is fostered by some special interest. Many laws are found to be Impractical and are either repealed or permitted to remain on the statutes without any attempt to enforce them. What the public wants is not more laws, but enforcement and observance of the ones already on the stHtute books.

JUSTICE FOR OUR SOLDIERS It is reported that President Harding was much impressed by the suggestions for legislation in behalf of disabled soldiers that were made to him by Commander Galbraith of the American Region. As has been announced, the administration is preparing to institute a general re-organ I zat ion of the executive departments to do away with the duplication of activities, abolishing some bureaus and agencies, consolidating others, and so on, but the realization of this plan will take some time. Ever since the ending of the war, the American Legion has been urging the grouping of all government relief agencies for soldiers into one bureau. Much hardship has been caused by the present hap-hazard arrangement. Disabled veterans with legitimate claims for assistance find themselves sent from one bureau to another until the energy and patience are exhausted. Interminable delays have occurred In the administration of relief, simply because of the multiplicity of machinery. The previous appeals of the American Legion for reform of this intolerable situation havr; had Mttle effect, but now there is prospect of some action. A new proposal that veterans receiving vocational train-i-g be given sufficient compensation for the support of themselves and their families seems to be a matter of common JusticeWhoever has been responsible, and the officials most concerned have been quite active in passing the blame around, the failure to deal generously and T.romptly with Its wounded and disabled peddlers, who fought In Its defense, is a disgrace to the country. The American legion is right in Its lnsistanee on more adequate provisions for veterans and it will find in President Harding a sympathetic and powerful friend.

COLLEGES AND RELIGION Do college students, S5 per cent of them, ti.h r American universities with a definite Idea of God, and have less than 50 per cent of them retained that belief when they reach their senior year? Such ia the charge made in a report at a conference of the Southern Methodist churches recently In Washington. The accusation Is vehemently denied by the Rev. Raymond C. Knox, chaplain of Columbia University. The chaplain has some interesting comments. "The smattering of Information gleaned by children In an hour's lesson each Sunday morning, or the mere reading of the Bible, does not constitute a knowledge or study of religion," he says. In answering the charge that 60 per cent of the teachers of the sciences In universities are agnostics. Dr. Knox asserts that these teachers, in his opinion, do not exert the slightest influence on the religious be Itefs of the student body of he university. The charge of lack of Interest in church work can be laid with equal cause, It Is to be feared, against youth In and out of college. From the church viewpoint this Is lamentable. The church and the home, not the university, are where the seeds of true religion can be sown. When a boy or girl has attained college age. religious habits will pretty generally already have teen formed.

A man likes to act bossy WITH his wife when they have COMTANT because he'll have to KOLL over and play dead JUST as soon as company departs. WE v that counterfeit $60 BILLS are now In general circulation AND while our first Impulse

ONE reason we like babic.s IS bcrnusa they do not repeat the bright TBtNOS their fathers and mothers said. SO live If possible, that when TOU are taking someone to whom you are NOT married somewhere IN your automobile and something unfortunate happens THE neighbor women WIT.! not rise as oim Ynnrt Kr6 EXCLAIM In perfect unison 'IT serves him right." THE average man worries a lot more ABOUT being wrong If he discovers He has lost some money. IT prtys to advertise hut THE kind of trade you pet by XJfrin O one-cent stamp advertising IS worth jusrt about that much. ANOTHER queer thing ABOUT a girl Is the way she thinks SOMETHING- we couldn't ETEN walk In without getting OUB les all tangled up IS a sport suit. THERE was a time when Workers WOULD take 20 Pr cent les BJLTHXB than be Idle, BUT that van when they needed the m ney. HE Is a happy man whose STORM and strife worries half AS much over his digestion AS she doe over her complexion. WHEN a man has a BCAJR on his face or nech
