YOUR NEIGHBOR’S KEEPER.
"I am not my neighbor’s keeper,”
you say.
Wrong, brother, wrong—you are
your neighbor's keeper.
You have it within your power to
instill the doctrine of br otherly love
into ihe heart of your neighbor; to
keep before his mind the higher
and nobler things of life; to make
of him a living monument of what
man should be.
There is no man but what values
the good will of his neighbor, and
all men strive to retain that good
will to the end, for it is a universal
ly accepted fact that your neigh
bor comes the nearest of; all know
ing you as you are.
And while your neighbor may not
speak of them, he sees your good
points and your bad ones, and they
are impress upon his min d even to
the most minute and trivi al details.
Hence, it becomes all the more
incumbent upon you to f ,o regulate
your life that your neighbor may
find nothing therein to divert his
mind from the path thaut leads to
uprightness and right living
Cultivate your neighbor, ,^ive him
a friendly word ajid a worldly
boost; teach him to feel that you
are his “neighbor,and not s imply
“the man across t.he way.”
And as you act. toward him, so
will he in time r» jciprocate.
And if your acts be uplifting and
of a high moral tone, he in time
may seek your level, with its en
lightened atnac isphere and its lofty
ideals.
Yes, you are your neighbor’s
keeper, broth ,er.
Let your stewardship be above
reproach. ^ _ _

I OUR PUBLIC FORUM
III—Julius Kruttschnitt
On Financing Railroads
i
The farmers of
this nation need
to become better
acquainted with
the railroad men
and their prob
lems. It is only
those who know
that can give us
information and
the farmers of
America should
listen attentively
to what the men
who manage rail
road property
have to say. Mr. Kruttschnitt, exec
utive head of the Southern Pacific,
has written an article dealing with
the financing of railroads. He said
in part:
“The financing of a railroad is a
function which the people, through
their servants, the Railroad Commis
sioners and the Legislators, have
never attempted, but it is a most im
portant problem, especially to sec
tions of a State where new railroads
are needed. The placing of securities
has been left entirely with the pro
I moter and owner of railroads.
! “The immediate determination of
: what earnings the railroad shall be
! permitted to receive and what bur
| dens it shall have put on it is in the
! hands of other servants of the public
—the Legislators and the Commis
sioners.
“Managing a railroad is quite differ
ent from managing a government
where the money is raised by taxa
tion. When the expenditures, for
good reasons or otherwise, increase,
taxes can be equally increased. The
railroads, while servants of the pub
lic, cannot raise mone^ with such
ease gnd facility. The railroads must
keep their expenditures within their
incomes because while they have
some control over their expenditures
they have almost no control over their
incomes, their rates being fixed by
public authorities.
“There is not a railway manager in
the country today who is not fearful
that under the press of increasing de
mands the transportation systems ot
the country will, in a few years, break
down, unless the railroads are allowed
to earn larger funds wherewith to
build it up. There are vast sections
of the country, especially in the West
where more railroads are needed ane
they cannot be built unless the rail
ways raise new capital.
"People invest money in order t<
make money, and they are skeptical
as to whether they can make money
by investing in concerns that are dealt
with stringently and unfairly. Rail
road securities must be made more
attractive to Invite investments, and
in order that they may be made more
attractive, the roads must be allowed
earnings that will enable them to
meet the increased capital charges.
