Waste and confusion prevailed then. Billions were wasted building shins that leaked at every. steam and airvlane:s unfit for flight; and industry, striving to swing into hich cear for war. was hamstrung by political in< ᠀挀漀洀瀀攀琀攀渀挀攀 and hobbled with red tape. That those lessons are being heeded at the outset of the great defense program of 1940 is encouraging news. Industrial leaders are being called in on industrial problems. Speaking of the work of the advisorv commission of the council of national defense. Ralph Budd. veteran railroad executive, said this week: ‘The departments are quite distinct, and mine, of course, is transportation. . have nothing to do with the problem of raw materials. which Mr. Stettinius handles, nor with manufacturing. which is Mr. Knudsen’s task.’ That sort of organization has the rine of sound sense to it! ““So far as the .movement of freight is concerned,’’ Mr. Budd states further, **T don’t believe that the government should get into the transportation business. It is my desire not to intervene with management in any way. but to try to cooperate with management to look ahead as far as possible and to anticipate requirements.’ This tyne of planning is far different from that of 1917, when the hands of railroad: managements were arbitrarily tied and transport experts were replaced at the helm by political appointees. Even in recent peace years, the carriers, in common with many other basic industries. have been sorely hampered in “‘looking ahead and anticipating requirements” by bureaucratic interference and domination. The taxpayers who foot the bills, and the business men who place their industrial resources at the nation’s disposal, will hope that the common sense start will be adhered to—that the lessons of 1917 will not be forgotten as the pace of national defense quickens.—Contributed. . They Start With California . eae The See America First program adopted by travel-minded Americans since, one by one, vacation lands across the Atlantic have been crossed off the list by war. seems to have developed “‘start with California” as an additional slogan. Reports from mountain and beach resorts, tourists camps and hotels, filling stations and restaurants, stream of auto tourists is greater than that of record-breaking 1939. ' Streamlined trains are adding throngs who are taking advantage of low transcontinental round-trip rates for the second exposition year. And this week the Maritime Commission reports that luxury liner service for sea-going vacationists, long interrupted, will be resumed shortly with restoration of the liners Washington and Manhattan to the New York-California run. No matter how much ground American tourists cover— whether they include Mexico, South America and the Orient in their holiday wanderings—they begin with the state that has the most to offer in scenic beauty and pleasure. They start with California!—Contributed. NEV. CITY TROOP SENDS 23 SCOUTS TO PAHATS!
