Some Round-House Logic When and if the acute problems of America's railroads are solved it will be on a basis of mutual give and take, with ownership (or management) and employes agreeing to compromise com-promise their aims and desires for the mutual good Kii;ht now the organized railroad employes, thru their mouthpiece. "Labor," are shouting loudly that the railroads' excess valuation in stocks and bonds form an impossible basis for anything like healthful, paying operation. They would scale these" doubtless inflated values down to a reproduction-cost )wisis and Ix'gin calculations anew. Hut 'on the other hand representatives of rairoad management man-agement declare with a considerable amount of factual material ma-terial to draw upon that railroad wages and hours of work would create an impossible base for healthful operation-no matter what financial rearrangement might be made. They cite the 100 miles-equals-eight hours scale of freight service employes n certain roads and the 150-miles-equals eight-hours eight-hours for passenger employes as outmoded but arbitrary requirements which weight the railroads down. They cite cases of highly-paid operations employes who actually work 10 or 'l days1 a month and draw pay for a full month. The fact that the two great groups most vitally interested inter-ested in the successful operation of the railroads, the employes em-ployes and the management, can so bitterly criticize the intents in-tents and sections of the other major partner indicates to that silent but also vitally interested1 partner, the public, that both sides of the wrangles have some concessions to make before an equitable settlement can be reached. Read What You Sign I Additional proof of the great American willingness to sign anything comes from Syracuse university. There 115 students signed a petition which they thought favored the abolition of final examinations. It really was a petition in which the students signed to serve voluntarily on a Georgia- chain gang! Ahuising as the incident may be, it has a serious meaning mean-ing as well. Every year, thousands of persons sign various petitions without reading them. Many of these petitions put wild and impractical schemes on our ballots; schemes which cost thousands of dollars and many hours of work at election time. Many of the so-called "volunteer workers" who obtain these signatures are paid so much per name for all the signers sign-ers they obtain. Your signature is a precious possession. Don't give it away for politeness' sake. If you haven't time to read a petition, don't sign. If you do sign, be sure that you know just what you are agreeing to. Make vour signature work FOR vou, instead of AGAINST you. ' J OUT OUR WAY By WILLIAMS f I MO USE , VUH COULD PUT GIT OUT AN 1 A-HIDIM JCK- ) BUNDERS ON LEAD 'EM BACK THEY KMOW I. 'EM FEE.

BY X REPORTER The radio station that gets the biggest play in my household is, strange to say, a station that chiefly plays phonograph records. Oh, we seek out the symphony concerts, the opera in season, Charlie McCarthy and a few other classics, but when there's "nothing "noth-ing in particular" on the radio bill of fare, or when the dialer is too tired to go hunting the ether wilderness, this "transcription" "transcrip-tion" station usually gets the vote. That is our little way of saying a polite hoot-hoot to the raucous-voiced raucous-voiced gentry who would invade our privacy with messages of alarm, hatred or plain boredom. Lately I've noticed that the principal announcer on this station sta-tion is undergoing a strange and rapid evolution. He is changing from a goo dhusky westerner with a pleasant voice that used to start from way down under his belt, to a tea-and-custard individual indi-vidual who minces his speech and who believes firmly that the letter let-ter "r" is a soft-boiled egg without with-out a shell on it, which must ibe handled ever so gently. The young man is taking' elocution elo-cution to "improve" his diction, obviously. The good old native twang that is his natural language lan-guage is being slaughtered to make an ether holiday, and the net result to date is a colorless, gaseous lingo that is natural to no race of men ever seen on land or sea. You may deduce that I don't care for the vocal metomohpho- sis, and that is partly true, for affectation of any sort rubs my fur the wrong way. However. I recognize the fact radio announcers an-nouncers lacking "r's" may draw-more draw-more pay than the "r" rollers, and it is not for me to resent anyone's attempts to improve his-paycheck. his-paycheck. Hut I am not so charitable but that I can get a good laugh when the old "r" crops out in the middle mid-dle of an r'less discourse, and can feel over the ether waves the young announcer's backward stagger of shame and annoyance. It is like the crow of a young rooster, which may start off in a bass key and yodel off into a tremolo treble of the upper registers. reg-isters. Startling alike to listener and perpetrator. This announcer will say "chuhch" and "six-thuhty" "six-thuhty" almost as if to the manner man-ner born, and then blurt out a rolling double-r in "tomorrow" that makes the windows rattle. Intentionally murdered "r's" will rise again to, haunt one. JAPANESE SEEK TO ENCIRCLE SUCHOW SHANGHAI, April 29 (UP.) Japanese spokesmen said today their troops were ready to storm the strongly-fortified Uunghai railroad in a major drive to encircle en-circle Suchow, "the gateway" to Hankow. Chinese reports admitted that ihe .Tananese were within "sev eral miles" of the railroad south west of the Tangheng and about 50 miles east of Suchow. A DIDN'T SLEEP FOR 3 WEEKS!
