The abuses that grew up vnder federal manage- ment of railroads were great/in number and ridicu- lous in application and effec. For inszance, under the present classification ruJes of tie shop crafts— which the railroads are now seeking to have termin- ated—the following is just one illustration of sense- less labor waste and rank inefficiency: In order to change a nozzle tip in the: front end of a locomotive it is necessary, first, to call a boilermaker and his helper to open the door, because that is boilermaker’s work; second, to call a pipeman and his helper to re- move the blower pipe, because that is pipemen’s work; and to call a raachinist and his helper to re- move the tip, becausy; that is machinists work. The same three forces raust be employed to put in the new tip. Previous to federal control a machinist’s helper or any handy man pyit in nozzle tips alone. Another specimen of similar practices is the re- quirement to employ members of three crafts, ma- chinists, metal workers and electricians and their help- ers to make a yepair on a locomotive headlight, which was formerly handled by one or not exceeding two men. The railrouds desire an end put to such foolish and teful pracices, which are covered by national agreements, rules and working conditions established under federal control. It is net believed that any reasonable shopman will contend ‘that practices such as presented can be justi- fied or are deemed proper or right when the interests of the owners of railroads are consulted. On the other hand there is no doubt, equally flag- rant abuses #re to be found on the executive side of railroads in the employment of superfluous help to do things that can better be accomplished by fewer and better men. So far as we are able to judge criticism will hold against both sides. It is idle for one side to complain of the other in order to get away with the wrongful things it is do- ing itself. There must be not only elimination of waste and a strict observance of economy in the operating depart- ment of railroads, but in the executive department as well, and neither will be shooting square with itself Entered at Casper, (Wyoming) Postoffice as second-class matter, November 22, 1916. i —— ee MEMBER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORTS FROM UNITED PRESS - President and Editor ____----—--Business Manager Associate Editor City Editor Manager an ° n: RB.

The statement recognizes the important fact -—-e_eee ee that in order to be intelligent, the will of the people must be based upon full information analyzed and discussed in a deliberate manner, and, when thus formed is dependable. Mr. Harding demonstrated his own correct interpretation of such a judgrient of the people for he stood steadfastly behind the decisions registered at the polls in November. 5 Particularly was this true in his comment upon our attitude toward the league of nations. During the campaign Mr. Harding said: ‘In simple words the is- sue is, that he (the Democratic candjdate) favors go- ing into the Paris league and I favor staying out.” On that plainly stated issue the American people gave Mr. Harding a plurality of more than seven millions— a decision expressed after a keenly contested cam- paign had given the entire country full information on which to form a deliberate, intelligent, dependable popular will. Other issues decided by the*¢lection are also very appropriately summed up by the president, assuring the nation in these respects, also, there is correct in- terpretation of the will of the people for he says: “I speak for administrative efficiency, for lighten- ed tax burdens, for sound commercial practices, for adequate credit facilities, for sympathetic concern for all agricultural probleyns, for the omission of unnec- essary interference of government with business, for an end to government’s experiment in business, and for more efficient business in government administra- tion.” Public confidence has been greatly strengthened by the inauguration of a president, who recognizes hi position as one of service, not of mastery and who proposes that the government shall encourage, not usurp the activities of private enterprise. The dawn has broken upon a new era of political and economic history in America. Senator Shortridge, the new member from Califor- nia, ordered stationery from the government print- ing office. It came and the water mark was “Japan- ese Linen.” The senator hit the ceiling. ‘or CN LEESON A: LOL REE A DISSATISFIED GENERAL. It is noted that Adjutant General Timothy J. Mc- Coy, with the accent on the uniform, is doing more or less strutting about, complaining, because the legislature yanked his army out from under him and he is left totally without forces to protect and de- fend the imperial commonwealth. In cutting the ap- propriation for military support from $75,000 to $30,- 000, the general maintains, will necessitate mustering out one-half, if not two halves, of his army. In his enthusiasm to spread his own views and his own peevishness about the state, the general has not only committed a great breach of military: discipline, totally unbecoming an officer and gentleman; but he has failed to recognize the spirit of the times which is the reduction of the fighting forces and the increase of the working forces. That is'to say the people who pay the taxes desire less cluttering up of the scenery by. tin soldiers.and greater occupation: of the foreground by gentlemen clad in blue denim ~per- forming regular work. There may be some hint in this which the general may take-home to himself. Then, also, maybe, the general] ‘has overlooked the additional possibility that the great calamity which has befallen and of which he so loudly complains is due to himself—to his officiousness and his general unpopularity. The legislature of the sovereign state of Wyoming, representing the people, is not looking to a toy general for either instruction or advice. The governor can do as he sees fit, but he really ought to take the people into his. confidence to the extent of explaining to them the exguse for the gen- any question by writing The Casper Daily Frederic J.

The motion picture producers have awakened to the situation “whither they are drifting,” and pro- pose to refczm themselves. The thoughtful men and women of the country have of late been rather frank in expressing their views with reference to blaming the pictures with causing a share of immorality which has alarmingly increased of late years. The picture producers were quick to grasp and quicker still to act. . A meeting of the national association of the indus- try, including twenty odd corporations, representing ninety per cent of he industry, has just been held and it has been resolved to refrain from producing and showing pictures: Which emphasize and exaggerate sex appeal or de- pict scenes therein exploiting interest in sex in an improper or suggestive form or manner; Based upon white slavery or commercialized vice or/scenes showing the procurement of women or any of the activities attendant upon this traffic; Thematically making prominent an illicit love af- fair which tends to make virtue odious and vice at- tractive; With scenes which exhibit nakedness or persons scantily dressed, particularly suggestive bedroom and bathroom scenes or inciting dances; With scenes which: unnecessarily prolong expres- sions or demonstrations of passionate love; Predominantly concerned with the underworld or vice and crime, and like scenes, unless the scenes are part of an essential conflict between good and evil; Of stories which make drunkenness and gambling attractive or with scenes which show the use of nar- cotics and other unnatural practices dangerous to so- cial morality; Of stories and scenes which may instruct the mor- ally feeble in methods of committing crime or by cu- mulative processes emphasize crime and the commis- sion of crime; Of stories or scenes which ridicule or deprecate public officials, officers of the law, the United States THE G. O. P. IN ACTION. “One of the remarkable things about the new Re- publican administration,” says the Washington Post, “is the smoothness and precision with which the Con- gress will reorganize committees—the arteries of its legislative life—at the special session to be called by President Harding. The path has been well pared by the conference of the Republicans, 301 in number, in which Speaker Gillett and Floor Leader Mondell were again agreed upon. All murmurs of opposition dis- appeared, and the only thing left is the assignment of new members to committees. “ “In the senate there will be no difficulties what- ever about committee assignments, for with the ex- ception of one coveted vacancy on the foreign rela- tions committee, due to the resignation of Senator Fall to become secretary of the interior, and a ya- cancy in the chairmanship of the comn on agri- culture because of the defeat of Senator Gronna the committee organization is now intac “This notable fact is due to two things. First, that the Republicans lost but four of their old senators— Senator Gronna by defeat, Senator Sherman by vol- untary retirement, Senator Fall by resignation and Senator Harding by his election to the presidency— and second, because the senate has effected a dis- tinct reform in its committee organization. “By a resolution adopted many months ago all the obsolete, useless, nonworking committees were abol- ished, The number of committees was cut from 76 to about half that number and the size of the larger committees was reduced. The appropriations com- mittee, for instance, used to include 21 senators. Now there is no committee to contain more than fifteen senators.” Soe ee It requires very little to agog Washington.
