Get Rid of Wolves ly Norman Mac- r thinking to the} Writing in the British We lean has given some very cle: world when he says: “ never been a pac- ifist, and I am not a pacifist now. ‘There ‘is no use crying peace, peace, in a world filled with wolves, unless you are willing to leave the world a prey to the wolves. While wolves ire there organized in packs, men must be ready | to fight. “The way to get rid of war is to get rid of the wolfish spirit. War is not the real evil; it is but the symptom of the hidden disease, just as raving is a symptom of fever. The wise physician does not concern himself with the ray ing but with the fever. The time has come when we might leave the symptoms of the poor, sick, dying world alone. Everybody knows them. There is scarcely a house in this island where I write but mourns its dead! _ It is little use shouting ‘Ruin! Ruin!’ in a world that lies shattered all in ruins. The question is: What is this dreadful disease which hurls so terrible a calamity all over the world? any way of healing that disease “The queer thing about this generation is that it imagines itself superior to the spiritual experience of all the generations. It has no use for a word such as sin. To say that sin is the real disease of which war is the symptom is mere meaningless j on to a generation that has outgrown elementary beliefs! And yet there is no other word. Perhaps even the wise will admit that there is a moral order in the world working out predestined ends, and that races and individuals that resist that moral order inevitably perish. Buried Ninevehs and nameless graves are the proof. granted and the meaning of the word sin need ,not worry us any more. It is the heart in opposition to, and defiance of, the ethi of the universe. It is man alienated from and defying the source of the world’s moral order even God. Out of that came the greed and arrogance and pride which have devastated the world. And that devastation will continue so long as man is an alien to God “There can neyer be any brotherhood except + S\the footbuil parties was kept from the public, | se And is there |} Let that be! ul laws | for those who know. a common Father, Broth- ernood 1s meaniugiess apart irom s+athernvod, due cry of Lumauty is “Suow us the Lather!’ ‘he evangel tuut will save the world is this: ‘Benolu wwe hater.’ Apart irom that evangel there is uo Lope tor the world, “Phe woria is playing its ancient game.

It culminates in the suggestion of Mr. Gil- lett for the ambassadorship to the British court. It is felt that Mr. Gillett cannot suc- ceed himself as speaker on the reorganization of the next congress, that that honor will have to come west under the circumstances. And while he Was born in 1851 and is therefore enty-two years or age he is still vigorous and admirably suited for the important diplomatic post. If Mr. Coolidge 1s to be the party candidate for president, as Massachusetts hopes he will be there is some composing to be done not only elsewhere but at home in Massachusetts. And among the most important things is the shifting of responsibility from the shoulders of some ot | Massachusetts’ sons to the shoulders of sons | from other imperial commonwealths to the west- ward, in order to secure the advantage of help for the presidential purposes from sources from which it will be needed. Mr. Gillett is an important personage in Massachusetts, He cannot be dismissed from consideration as easily as folks outside Massa- chusetts might think. Therefore sending him| to St. James is a happy thought, so far as Massachusetts is concerned. Meanwhile Mr. Lowden of Tlinois, Mr. John- son of California and Mr. Pinchot of Pennsyl- vania are not disposed of as presidential con-| |tenders. Whether these men or any of them! can be induced to enter diplomacy, if posts can be secured for them and thus eliminate them selves from the lential pathway remains to be solved by achusetts gentlemen wh have sensed the dangers of their political posi- |tion. | If Mas: safely she chusetts hopes to reach market nnot hope to do so with numerous numerous eggs.

Railway Terms Defined STATEMENTS OF RAILWAY OPERATIONS are often misunderstood and frequently misquoted on the public platform and in published articles. The following information is given to assist in securing a clearer understanding of the terms employed in stating the results of railway operations: RAILWAY OPERATING REVENUE: This consists of all re- venue received by the railway for transportation services, including freight, passenger, mail, and other allied services. This also includes revenue arising from storage, demurrage and other activities incident to the performance of transportation, in fact, all revenue grow- ing out of the transportation activities of a railway. RAILWAY OPERATING EXPENSES are those expenses incurred in connection with the performance of transportation services, including maintenance of fixed property, locomotives and cars, together with the expenses of wages, fuel, material and supplies necessary for the move- ment of traffic, but not including taxes or payments for the use of other companies’ equipment and property used jointly. NET REVENUE FROM RAILWAY OPERATION is the railway oper- ating revenue, defined above, less the railway operating expenses. NET RAILWAY OPERATING INCOME is the net revenue from railway operation less taxes, uncollectible revenue, payments for use of other companies’ equipment and facilities used jointly. This is the amount which the railway company realizes from its transportation activities, and is available for the payment of rentals of leased lines and interest on indebtedness; the remainder, if any, may be carried to surplus or applied to dividends. REASONABLE RETURNS: The Transportation Act requires the Inter- state Commerce Commission to ascertain the value of railway property and name a reasonable rate of return upon the same. This rate they have fixed at 5.3-4 per cent. A railroad, whose value has been ascer- tained by the Commission to be 100 million dollars, and whose “net railway operating income” is 5 3-4 million dollars annually, is receiving the reasonable return of 5 3-4 per cent upon its property, as fixed by the Commission. The net revenue from railway operation should not be confused with net railyway operating income. The necessity of this is apparent when it is realized that the net revenue from the railway operation of all Class 1 railways in the United States in the year 1922 was $1,144,051,185, while the net railway operating income was but $759,945,517, a differ- ence of $385,105,668. All the railroads in the United States are required by law to make re- ports under oath of their activities to the Interstate Commerce Com- mission, using the terms above which are prescribed by that Commission. These reports are on file in the Commission’s offices at Washin , and are available to the public, eons a
