Radio
His Uncle's Niece
The play which was put on by the
Parent-Teachers association of Alvo
on Monday of last week, was very
largely attended by the people of the
community, who found a most excel
lent presentation of the theme which
had been selected.
The Municipal Tree
At the meeting last Saturday night
at the church looking towards the
proper observance of Christmas, the
meeting seemed to recognize in Art
Dinges, one who would do things, and
so heaped on him the responsibility
of making a, success of the under
taking, and we observed that he had
a nice tree at the intersection of the
streets, which the lighting plant came
and wired and lighted for the occa
siou for a number of days before
Christmas and with the excellent pro
grom which was bad on Saturday
night, with the carols which were
sung and the radio which was given
to Rev. Chenoweth, made a most com
plete celebration and one which ev
erybody enjoyed.
Selected a Hustler
When the work of hustling for a
present for the minister, and which
was to be a radio, came up, the se
lection of A. B. Stromer was a good
one. for he is not afraid to work and
entered into the subject with vim
and soon had the required amount
and made an excellent purchase, and
selected just the very thing that was
most appreciated.
Have Playful Evening
The Parents and Teachers' associa
tion met one evening during the
past week at the basement of the
church, where they popped a large
quantity of corn and with the even
ing and games which they had pro
vided for the occasion, had a most
enjoyable time.
A MABTEL OF MANAGE
MENT AND OPERATION
On September 1, 1920, the Trans
portation act went into effect, passed
for the purpose of permitting the
railroad to earn a fair return on its
investment. This fair return was
fixed at 5 per cent after March,
1922, a little enough profit on the
money needed to operate such an es
sential industry. Yet in the seven
years that have passed, to last Sep
tember, the Class I railroads in this
country are short over 2V3 billions
of dollars of earning the amount per
mitted by law.
The railroads have no come-back.
The government did not actually
guarantee them a profit; it merely
permits them to earn a limited re
turn, regardless of good or bad years.
They must pocket their loss in poor
years with no chance of recovery
in better years.
The railroads have shown a mar
velous record of service in the face
of such an ironclad limitation of in
come. No other business is so held
under the thumb of inelastic regu
lation. A democracy is supposed to
encourage fair dealing to all per
sons and industries The railroads
should not be expections. How many
businesses could operate at all un
der the rulings thaf apply to rail
roads? GOOD PRICES REALIZED
