and remained there during the whole war.

Giovernment benevolence in housing has
met similar difficulties. One of these model
communities proposed to* restrict those
who were to get its rent subsidy to under-
privileged families, but it numbers among
its tenauts two university professors and a
congressman’s son, A New York housing
project originally was limited to tenants
vith ' es under $2,500, but diffi-
cultities arose in the filling in with
families that met the specifications.
Those that wanted the accommodations
had incomes above the requirement, while
“socially desirable” tenants were reluctant
to leave their slum environment. Neither
of these dilemmas had been foreseen by the
planners.
SIMPLICITY ।
THE RAILROADS of the nation make no
-1 claim to a monopoly on business diffi-
culties and troublesome problems, but it
seems they have a full share-of obstacles to
overcome, if they are to ccpe with chang-
ing economic conditions, as well as to com-
pete successfully with other types of trans-
portation.
Due to legal restrictions imposed by the
federal government, the railroads cannot
determine for themselves alone, what
should be charged for hauling certain
commodities upon occasion, when competi-
tive agencies are bidding for the business.
Instead of being able to use their own judg-
ment in fixing rates to cope with competi-
tion, the railroads must adhere to certain
tariffs designated by the Interstate Com-
merce Commission, or be confronted with
the extra expense and delay of applying to
the Commission for special rates. In the
meontim. competitors, more fortu-
nately situated, as regards federal restric-
tions, are hauling the commerce that might
otherwise go to the railroads.
In the opinion of Matthaw S. Sloan, pres-
ident of the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Lines,
the railroads themselves must do some-
thing about simplifying the ponderous and
complex rate structure that has been built ’
up in recent years, so that when a pros-
pective shipper requests quotations on
freight to a certain destination, such rates
can be quoted quickly and accurately. Mr.
Sloan is on the right track. Shippers are not •
willing to wait interminable hours to learn
• what the railroad rate might be, when a
competitive transportation agency is able
to quote rates and have the goods in tran-
sit more quickly.

times appears to be very complex, is ac-

Our Navy and Figs
The navy is belligerently neutral these days.
Unofficially, the navy will sit down and help out
a troubled correspondent on a general problem
of strategy, but officially it dries up like a
plucked fig if the talk is turned-to what Britain
should do to smash in on Germany or how to meet
the submarine menace. They don’t want any
headlines going out saying: “Navy says British
’ fleet can blast way into Germany.”
Unofficialiy, about every officer has his own
idea on how the British navy will win the war.
That isn’t unneutral, of course. You couldn’t ex-
pect sailors to admit that.a navy could NOT win
a war.

she said, rebuke dripping with ev-

prise. “It is a rule,” she said,
severely, “that gentlemen must
