GOOD NEWS FROM NEVADA
e
Of encouragement to California farmers, producers and
shippers—whose sole lifeline to eastern markets is efficient
long haul transportation—should be the optimistic editorial
opinion expressed by the Reno Evening Gazette on the legal
dilemma forced upon 47 western railroads last year by Francis
Biddle, then attorney general.
Biddle accused the rail carriers of antitrust law violation
for procedures long established by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, ‘Now that he no longer heads the justice department,” reasons the Evening Gazette, “‘the chances of these
suits ever being tried are remote’. However, the Reno paper
strongly advocates passage of the Bulwinkle bill, designed to
a between
.
.
clear the carriers’ status by designating the ICC as sole regu-.
latory power over them.
“If enacted, it would serve as a barrier against some future
hare-brained attorney general filing an action such as those
conjured up last year by Biddle.”’ the editorial reads in part.
““Now it is regarded as a necessary protection for the railroads
and the public. If people of other states are as strong for the
Bulwinkle bill as Nevadans are, it will become law in the very
near future. The list includes carriers, shippers organizations,
civic bodies, service clubs, farm organizations and chambers of
commerce:. Our legislative representatives in Washington will
recognize it as one of the most unanimous requests for legislation that has even come from the people of this state.”
It is good news to transportation conscious Californians
that their Nevada negihbors are equally determined to smash
the unnecessary legalistic barriers that clog the road to market.—Contributed.
PISTOL PACKIN’ PATTON
Lusty, loose tongued,.hot tempered General George Pat‘ton is ‘““down”’ again. He was up to begin with, as a skilful commander, until he slapped a soldier, then was down a while, in
obscurity and public disfavor. Then he was up once more,
when he led his armored Third Army in slashing style across
Germany. Now he’s down again—disciplined and shifted to a
relatively unimportant command for. disregarding the orders
of General Eisenhower while military governor of Bavaria.
Through these bewildering phases: of this truculent officer’s career, we have a hunch, the American people have developed a fondness for “Old Blood and Guts’’. He simply has
glaring faults and weaknesses along with brilliance and courage and honesty, which makes him very much a human being. Some military men are gifted with the ability. to administer civilian affairs, as Generals MacArthur and Eisenhower
appear to be. Some military men just don’t have that gift—
notably General Grant, a supurb soldier who became a medjocre president.
Pistol Paskin’ Patton was deade wrong in slapping a soldier and flouting the policies of his superior officer. But his
ability as a military organizer and field leader helped shorten
the war and saved the lives of many American soldiers. Posterity will remember him best for that.—Contributde.
JUST WONDERIN’
I wonder if the gods of old,
Who pitied men of common play,
With a deep knowledge o: their
need,
Gave-them the game we love today—
Taught them the use of ball and bat
And how to pitch and how to run.
And so preserved in this rare form
The healing art of fun,
I wonder if I have been wasting
time;. some may think so, but so
many thousands of my countrymen
and women wasted theirs in the
Same manner that I have my doubts.
After all listening to the world eeries, hearing the impact of every bat
upon that flying demon of uncertainty the ball keeping track of the
runs the number of balls and strikes
and visualizing the flying forms of
big huskies intent upon winning the
pennant for their team, that was recreation and our national game afYou cat about atomic
bombs while listening to a base ball
game, you can't hate your neighbor
worry
or cultivate your intolerance toward
those of other races than your own,
you can't do anything but lfsten and
while listening forget the cares that
infest the day.
Those who were privileged to wit. ness the great games from day to
. day, until Detroit finally made its
‘killing .may ‘be tired, but mentally
. they have been rested and refreshed.
By this time next year I hope that
thousands of men and. women who
have thus far failed to do so will
take advantage of the next best
. thing by listening to the games as
. they are described by able sports
casters and get a full measure of fun
jand excitement from our great na. tional game, base ball.
Here is an especial reason why the
‘Jadies should learn the ins and outs
}
fords a fine type of recreation for of base ball; you are,extremely glad .
any one who will take the pains to
understand and appreciate it. when your husband enjoys your especial enthusiasms and shares them

Vinson
Shortly after Fred Vinson was
named Secretary of the Treasury
he was quoted in the press as say-¥¢
ing ‘‘the American people are in the
pleasant predicament of having to
‘learn to live 50% better than they
have ever lived before.’’ When he
made this remark he was~talking
about a future day, one that had
not come then and has not come yet,
but a completely possible future
day. :
Hitler was no longer a menace,
when the new Secretary spoke of a
50% higher living standard in America, but Japah. still clouded the Pacific, Now that has cleared up
also and today’s national problem
is economic rater than strategic.
The strain is no less, but in a Gifferent place. Ease _ felt’ in America as firing ceased was like tkrelief of changing hands with ¢
heavy burden.
Load is on Vinson
About a month ago this column
carried an outline of Mr. Vinson’s
tax policies which I-frankly-consider sound. Now, in view of the
changed international picture, it is
high time everybody knew more
about this generalissimo of post-war
finances, czar of economics in the
world’s most important country. He
is a key man on the team that has
to win if liberty, civilization and enlightenment survive.
Fred Vinson is 55 years old. Half
a century ago he was playing in the
yard of the jailhouse-in Louisa, Ky.
His father was county jailer. The
next year he started to school.
i . His coarse hair is half gray
now and he has some loose skin under his chin but’ he’s recognized as
the “best in his line’’ and on a job
where everybody wishes him well
if that’s success.
A Serious Student
Louisa, with some 2,000 inhabitants, is across the Big Sandy river
from West Virginia. There young
Vinson entered school, there was
elected district attorney and from
there went to Congress in 1922. At
Center College, Danville, Ky., he
worked in the library to help pay
expenses, took a leading part in athletics and averaged above 95 in
grades all through college and law
school,
Mr. Vinson is a penetr¢ting thinker. He has years of experience in
government and he knows taxes. He
is a recognized fiscal expert. That’s
what put him on the Ways & Means
committee and here his ability is
still respected. He has been a Federal judge, the successful economic
stabilizer of this country, also director of war mobilization: and reconversion—the job that’s known as
“assistant president.’’
To Make More Jobs
Vinson has many prime qualifications for his present job. Anent his
thoroughness, it came out a time or
two in connection with his work as
chairman of the tax section of the
Ways & Means committee that he
knew more than his witnesses themselves about testimony they submitted. Recolléction of these incidents
naturally tends to keep alive Vinson’s influence among congressmen
which isa big asset.
It is told that he studied beforehand the financial statements of big
corporations whose officials were to
testify, and his questioning them
proved repeatedly that he knew
more about certain aspects of a corporation’s business than did its president. This is the man who planned
a tax program to create the most
jobs, instead of merely raising revenue for the government, something
IT have been shouting from the housetops for four years.
