Harding Makes Plea for Railway Merger (Continued from rue >'1ne.) have made greater inroads on rail way revenues than the electric lines with their Intimate appeal to the local community. There will never be a backward step in motor transporta tion. But we shall do better If we find a plan to co-ordinate this service with the railways, rather than en courage destructive competition. In deed. the motor transport already promises relief to our congested ter minals through better co-ordination. We have come to the point where we need all the statecraft in business, t>i find the way of making transput ta tion in its varied forms adequate to > the requirements of American com merce, to afford that transportation its due reward for service, without taking from production and trade a hindering exaction. I cannot too greatly stress the Im portance of this great problem. It cannot be solved by those who com mend the policy of confiscation or de struction, nor can it be solved by those who make a prejudiced appeal for political favor. We must frankly recognize the exactions imposed upon the American farmer during the war expansion of rates, take note of the wage development which will yield no reduction in the principal item of operating cost, and seek conditions under which we may have the requi site reductions in fixed charges which will afford encouraging relief. If the system consolidations, with diminished overhead costs, with terminal advan tages largely improved and terminal charges greatly reduced, will not af ford the solution, then our failure will enforce a costlier experiment and the one great commitment which I hope the United States will forever escape. We are dwelling now amid a grati fying return to prosperous conditions. I do not share the feeling that the recovery is a mere temporary one, with impending relapse. The guaranty of permanence lies in our doing the things essential to the equitable shar lng of our good fortune. There can be no abiding prosperity in industrial centers, in transportation or else where, unless It is properly shared by American agriculture. Govern ment can make no direct bestowal of good fortune, but It Is the duty of government to maintain conditions under which equal opportunity for good fortune Is the heritage of every American everywhere. Under our representative democra cy we find ourselves absorbed In Is sues which more or less concern us In our Individual affairs, but we losq, the aspect of government as a whole and take It as a matter of course. It is our accepted practice rather than a deliberate intent. Americans ought ever to be asking themselves about their concept of the ideal republic. I take it to be one of universal good fortune, where free dom is as complete, under the law, as Justice is unfailing within the law. A land where the equality of free dom's opportunity and the reward of merit are held as sacred Inherit ances and citizens are made fit to embrace beckoning opportunity. •tout* Without €xt am# V wnurm -- '^I5t9~7!s2l Sl>GH0i<%f S*trWet New Arrivals in White Footwear Greet You Here Saturday Just the types you most desire, and most moder ately priced.
