All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved. Hopeful Prophecy Despite the time-honored saw that @ prophet is not without honor save in his own country, the people who have followed its forecasts will put faith in the prediction of the north- west regional advisory board that there will be a 31 per cent increase in freight car loadings during the fourth quarter of 1933. ‘The forecast is based upon infor- mation gathered from shippers and transmitted to the railroads to guide them in preparing for traffic needs. It has never been substantially in error in the decade or so that the board has been in existence. All will hope that this record will not be marred now. For this increase in freight traffic will mean many things to this area. First of all, it will mean that dollars which have been hiding in tin cans and old socks will go back to work. They will have to move more freely if more goods are to change hands, and every freight shipment means that something has been bought and sold and is on the way to delivery. It will do much to swell railroad payrolls, sadly curtailed in recent years. The only railroad men who have had steady jobs in recent years are those with so many years of serv- ice behind them that they are ap- Proaching the Methuselah class. Right now, men with as many as 15 years of service get only a few days of work now and then, due to the reduced demand for railroad work- ers. Just as encouraging is the fact, that the,forecast for the near north- west is of a piece with the outlook in the rest of the nation, which an- ticipates an increase of 630,511 car- loads of freight during the last three months of 1933 as compared with a similar period in 1932, This as a gain of 14.7 per cent. Chief beneficiary of improved busi- ness, according to the forecast, is the Great Lakes district, which expects 8 boost of 36.5 per cent. Next comes our own area which comprises the Dakotas, Montana, Minnesota, and parts of Wisconsin and Michigan. Next in line comes the Allegheny dis- trict with a 30.5 per cent boom. ‘The Ohio Valley expects a 15.6 per cent gain, to take fourth place and the smallest increase in any of the 13 districts is that for the southwest, which expects to gain seven-tenths of one per cent. Twenty-nine commodities, compris- ing 90 per cent of the total freight shipped, are included in the surveys on which the figures are based. All but six will move in greater quantities during the last quarter of 1933 than was the case @ year ago. Those expected to show gains are: Flour, meal and other mill products; hay, straw and alfalfa, cotton, citrus fruits, potatoes, poultry and dairy products, coal and coke, ore and con- centrates, gravel, sand and stone, salt, lumber and forest products, pet- roleum and petroleum products, sugar, syrup and molasses, iron and steel, machinery and boilers, brick) and clay products, lime and plaster, agricultural implements and vehicles other than automobiles, automobiles, administrative acts by which the ad. ministration is seeking to implement recovery. But it is a deeper thing than any mere change in the machin- ery of government or political theory; not owe its existence to the presence or absence of any particular group on Capitol Hill. Briefly, this change can be describ- ed by saying that we have at last got entirely away from the psychology and the odd kind of idealism that characterized us during nearly all of the ‘20s. ‘We have outgrown, that is to say, 8 stage in our history during which we were perhaps the most purely materialistic people on earth. In that stage we worshiped material success in a way that was almost de- vout. With a very few exceptions, cur heroes were the men who knew how to make money fast—and we weren't very particular about how they made it. The go-getter and the high-pressure lad were in the lime- light, and most of us envied them and tried to copy them. That this was an extremely un- healthy period is, by this time, pretty clear. The machine age was begin- ning to dump its greatest problems in our laps, and we blithely ignored them because the machine age was making some people very rich. The seeds of all our present misfortunes took root in those days, and we were too self-satisfied to try to dig them out. We are wiser, now; and in our tainment of wisdom we have had something very like a spiritual re- ‘birth. Yor in giving up our slavish ad- miration of money and the money- ‘makers, we have made possible a re- turn to the traditional American idealism. We have stopped defining Progress as a steady increase in the number of millionaires, and because of that fact we have opened the way for progress of the only kind that is worth making—the progress that represents a fuller and wider life for the ordinary man. Starting Right ‘The Brewers’ Board of Trade of New York, Inc., took a three-quarter page advertisement in the newspapers the other day to appeal to the public for cooperation to check the opera- tions of the beer racketeers. It pointed out that the racketeers were trying to keep their control over the beer distribution business in New York, and cited an instance in which @ beer garden proprietor had been beaten up for refusing to handle ex- clusively the products of a certain brewery. To cope with such situa- tions, the brewers’ association urged all citizens having knowledge of such outrages to call on the police for help and to notify the brewers themselves; and it pledged the aid of all reputable breweries in the city to stamp out the evil. Here is a healthy sign. The beer business, now as legal as any other, must be kept as law-abiding as any other. It is good to see that the lead- ing brewers are fully conscious of the fact.

They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies. ‘Wormwood for ‘The Boys’ (New York Times) ‘What kind of Postmaster General is this man Farley? Multitudes of faithful Democrats, eager to serve their country, will be asking that question when they have read his speech at Rochester at the conven- tion of the National Association of Postmasters—most of’ them Repub- licans, probably, confound it! It was bad enough to cut down by 900 the number of presidential offices, but how about those that survive? Are the Republicans to sit comfortably, at deserving Democrats, till the end of their terms? Of course Mr. Farley said it, but hasn't he changed his mind? Unfortunately Mr. Farley repeats his declaration that “loyal and efficient postmasters” will stay till their terms .

Dr. William YELLOW LAMPS ARE BEST ‘Thirty years ago it was found that yellow lenses give better vision with less fatigue to the eye. Yellow paper is less tiring than white paper, if much reading is to be done, Occulists assure us that the fad of wearing tinted lenses is just # fad, and that ordinary daylight or artificial light contains no rays that are in- jurious to healthy eyes. If any com- fort is derived from wearing amethyst, amber and other tinted lenses, it is psychic, imaginary, or a reaction to positive suggestion given by the spec: tacle seller. Diseased eyes may require interfer- ence with the rays of ordinary light. Tf so, the best glasses are those of neutral shade, such as “ smoke,” For protection of the eyes against strong sun glare, as when oné is out on the water or mountain climbing or lon the desert, probably a yellow or yellowish green tinted glass is best, especially such glass with a dark smoke tint added.
