Logically the Government should % explore that region and any others contiguous to & the railroad. It has reserved to itself the title to all coal-bearing land in Alaska and, except for cne or two patented claims, it is the actual owner of such resources. Coal can be mined only under lease. It is, therefore, good business for the Gov- ernment, as owner, to do a little inventorying in order to find out just what it has. Since so much worry is felt over the fail to pay dividends, thousand doll traffic m Such a policy period than is the raisir rates. It is not conc movement sufficiently make the ro ng. It is 5 as freight rates and passenger fares advance shipments shrink and passenger travel is limited those who of necessity ride. Thus, if the proposed tariff increases are made effective, the Government will have to find some new sources of tonnage if it keeps its equipment actively engaged. It can hardly expect any new commercial interests to break into the field. Apparently they could not be ‘nter- ested in the past nine years, or the period operation for the road, when freight tariffs according to the Committee, 25 per cent less than coal for export is shipped in the States.

Not So Quiet. (Manchester Weekly Guardian.) The German Board of Film Censors has decided to ban “All Quiet on the Western -Front” bccausc& it is “detrimental to German prestige.” Of coursz-.; of the splendor of war, then “All Quiet” is a very damaging attack. But fortunately Germany's repu-| tation in the world today is largely built on the courage and clearness with which her authors and |dramatists have exposed the old ‘“patriotic” fables. Many Englishmen confronted with the sentimental, mischievous glorification of war that is still too common in films have been deeply thankful to Herr Remarque for his truthful description and for the film version of his novel. Most Germans share this gratitudi e that it is not Germany but mili 1—an international disease—which is| denounced in “All Quiet.” The disgraceful riots of | the last few days, however, show that the minority of dy Nazis are growing alarmingly in strength They are now apparently able by breaking the peace to secure the prohibition of the “All Quiet” film and presumably of any future film to which they This is the worst kind of cen- happen to object. sorship. It is, in fact, artistic lynching. It proves the rebirth of militarism in Germany. The failure to achieve disarmament is persuading Ger- re too young to remember the war that rs are best conducted with that back- ing of miltiary force which the other Powers enjoy. To many young Germans Remarque’s work is merely an expression of cowardice. They believe that Ger- man pacifigis are betraying their country because so far mans who as the Committee urges.
