It will prove that the company, through its auxiliaries,;has helped in the last tén "years or so to’restore the public service utility companies of the coun- try to economic vigor and to accel- erate industrial growth in regions dependent on’a supply °f electric power.” The “Trust: Goblins” of 1900 no longer scare the American public £0 much as do “Political Goblins” that threaten ‘national industrial stability steady payrolls and security of in- vestments.

If anybody should be experienced in the handling of fire- arms, it would naturally be an officer, who is thus constantly engaged. A person who is unaccustomed to going to lunch without buckling on his arsenal. But it seems familiarity with dangerous weapons breeds contempt for them in officers as with everybody else in every phase of danger. Which brings us to the question: Where the needs of all these shooting irons anyway? In the possession of officers, or in anybody’s possession. Ts it imperative, and are the dangers of the streets of 4 aceful city so at that a traffic officer needs must o ne down by at weight of artillery? The majesty of the law, and the we ways with officer. What further power of persuasion does he require, in his business, except the courage to execute his duty when it is presented before his eyes? The main argument on behalf of arming officers with death dealing equipment, is, of course,to prepare them for whatever may be the eventualities of unforseen situations. There is some force to it, but the neces: for the display of armed force, the taking of human life or the maiming of law breakers caught red handed, are all very remote in main taining the peace and dignity of a community ; Whatever the occasion for the use of firearms in compell ing a peaceful and orderly city may haye been in recent times, PUZZLE SOLUTION Solution to Sunday's Puzzle absence of new influences causing an interruption of the growth of passenger business it would have been’ larger in 1924 than in 1920. Never but once before in the history of American railroads did thelr pas senger business show a decline after the passage of four years, and in that instance the decline was very small, “It would appear that as hard sur- face highways have been built all over the country the losses of short distance and long distance business have been about relatively equal. Have the rallways been justified, tn the face of this loss of business, in maintaining so much passenger ser- vice? They have lost business to the automobile largely because it n be used at any time and op most lines if the rallways had re- duced their service they would have lost still @ business to the auto- mobile urthermore, of course, on many Hnes they have encountered strong opposition from the public and regulating authorities to reduc: tions of service. “What appears to be most needed now {s the more general introduction on lines of thin traffic of means of E,.A. PELLETIER, Commander, Casper Collins Camp, U. 8. W. V. Ancient Stuff The program of the U, S. Senate to investigate: the General Electric Co., on the theory that it is a mon- opoly controling production and dis- tribution of electric enérgy and the manufacture, sale and distribution of electrical eyuipment,. has resulted in some remarkable comment from American editors. Instead of genéral approval of the senate action, as might have been the case 20 years ago, press com- ment has been caustic and shows that editors no longer swallow inves- tigation proposals-at a gulp. Today they analyze conditions sur- rounding the property {n question, the character of its officers and its Tecord as a business concern. Mere size {n a corporation {s no longer considered a danger by the Amert- can public, but “It took two decades to convince the average’ man that Dig business can do -quickly. what little business never can do, that it can stimulate production where it needs stimulating, restrain excessive No men but, Anglo-Saxons by in- herltance could have drawn the Con- stitution n-1788. No Anglo-Saxons could have drawn it, but those that did, the picked men of communities that had practiced self-governntent and struggled for it through a cen- tury and a half as colonists. Cer- tainly the Frenchmen of Quebec, the Spaniards of Cuba, had they been presented the opportunity, could have done nothing like it. And that_is why the Constitution is not today an obsolete scheme of government once appropriated for elghteenth century rust{city, but an expression of organic law such as Americans, unless politically degen- erate, will cherjsh, such as they. will seriously depart from at thelr peril, ‘The War did much for us. It re- inforced our national confidence in American institutions. and it in. spired our American psychos to ro- bustious assertion of its will to dom- inate the allen factors here. Those last have been instigated by the ‘War's experience and results to con- fess Americanism and to undertake to be Joyal Americans. The Constitution is no fetish, as "Secretary Hughes points out.

At present the chances seem better of devising means of ndling “passenger business more eaply than of competing success- ly with the automobile for it.
