KOCIIKSTEK DliMOCKAT AXI) CHRONICLE. MONDAY. JULY 2. 1923. 10 TRYING TO START SOMETHING Street Railroad Finances.

Observations of Uncle Walt fctawcwt Cfirottteli 1 igurcs taken from the quarterly report of the operation of the street railway system in this city show that during the quarter which ended on April 30, the system earned $43,067.23 above its guaranteed return on the investment. This bhows that while llic company is making progress financially under the present rate' of fare, it is not jet in a position where fares can be materially reduced ithout endangering the solvency of the company, It is entirely natural that street-car patrons should be desirous i i seeing ine rate oi tare rrnicru, out musi ma3 that the difference between a 5-cent fare and a "-cent fare is not of vital when compared ith the necessity of maintaining the efficiency of the street railroad system. This point has just been brought up iu Philadelphia, where agitation for a reduction in fares has been in progress. The Public Service Commission of Pennsylvania in its decision in that case has approved of the present rate of fare, which is 7 cents, or four tickets for 25 cents, and the Philadelphia Public Ledger regards the decision as one of real benefit to the city, because it insures to the operating company "an income that will sustain its credit and enable it to carry out plans for the extension of its service fur the The Public Ledger adds: "Car riders have learned by actual and often bitter experience that they can look for adequate service only to an operator commanding credit with which to finance extensions, and an assured income sufficient to maintain its service at a high standard of efficiency and completeness." Kvidencc taken by the Public Service Commission when the case was under consideration showed that measured by the purchasing value of the dollar to-day, a fare of 7.97 cents would be necessary in order to equal the purchasing power of 5 cents in 1913. This means, of course, that the 7-cent fare of to-day is really less, so far as purchasing power is concerned, than the 5-cent fare of 1913.

Naturally, this point is ignored by agitators who keep them selves before the eyes of the public porations ami very thereby acquire a fleeting popularity. Experience in many directions' lias demonstrated that it is comparatively easy to destroy the value and efficiency of a public-service corporation by-4U-edviscd government interference and regulation beyond the point of safety. When a breakdown comes under such circumstances the public always has to suffer. The agitator- having done his work may sink into obscurity, but that docs not restore transportation. The Public Service Commission of Pennsylvania, in considering the Philadelphia case, took into account that the city is growing rapidly and that street-railroad extensions are necessary if the public is to be properly served.

The same situation exists here on a smaller scale. The local company must be in a position financially to extend its lines and enlarge its equipment when necessity rises. The rate of fare that did not provide for these things would be in every sense fJ of the word a calamity, and a -5-cent fare under such conditions would be far more costly to the city from the point of view of public welfare than a 7-cent fare. Moreover, here in Rochester the servicc-at-cost contract makes ample provision for fare reductions when they are justified by the growth of revenue. These are prosaic facts that ought to be clear to everybody, but occasional repetition is necessary, because there is so much misrepresentation of the facts that people sometimes are misled into believing that it would be a simple, matter to restore the 5-cent fare, if the street railroad company were not seeking to pile up a huge surplus for the benefit of stockholders.

Several years ago at a Fourth of July dinner at Shanghai the English consui, etilogiaing the British flag, said "Here is to the I'nion Jackthe fW of flansthe flag that has floated on every continent and on every sea for a thousand yenrs the flag on which the sun never sets." Eli Perkins, the humorist, responded "Here is to the Stars and Stripes; when the setting ami lights up her stars in Alaska, the rising sun salutes her on the rock hound const of Maine. It is tba flag of liberty, never lowering to any foe, and the only flag that whipped the flag on which the sun never sets." The Cent of 17H7.

Averill. FAVORITE BIBIJB PASSAGE. A Womans Philosophy THK KK.HT TO BK IIAI'PY. "Youth expects a perpetual banquet of happiness and at the first disillusionment charges the universe with falsehood and ingratitude." Where do we get that idea that someone has promised that we should happy? That it is our right to be buppy and that if we aren't happy we have been somehow cheated. What happiness anyway? It doesn't bear thinking about too closely does it? It's like beauty, if you try hard to define it nnd understand it and analyze it, you drive It away.

"Ir you touch them they Ask anyone If he is happy nnd he will have to stop and think. Ask him if he is perfectly happy and you will get a positive answer from one in a thousand. Happiness is something you think the other person has, that other person who has none of your trying problems and annoyances, a ml at least as many of his own, only you do not know that. "If we only wished to be happy," says a French philosopher, "this could be easily accomplished but we wish to be happier than other people, and this is always difficult for we believe others to be heppler than they are." Part of our unhapplneNs comes from this feeling that others are happier than we are and a great deal more from our sense of being cheated when we aren't happy. 1( we didn't expect to be lmppy all the time then whatever happiness we did wring from life would be to the good.

But if we expect to be happy, all the time then every time that our happiness is interfered with we feel cheated and resentful, and often that resentment is harder to bear than the inconvenience or annoyance that caused it. One of the greatest obstacles to happiness in marriage is the fact that both purtles expect too much happiness. They were born with that expectation of perpe.tuuJ--happiness, which the author I quoted above refers to. Of course they have bad frequent disappointments and disillusions. But they have by no means given up the idea that as soon as certain temporary disabilities, such as lack of money, control of parents, are done away with they are going to lie perfectly happy.

And then along comes love, and Nature for her own purjiosis promises them that perfect happiness is now at hand? A wedding is to usher it in and after that they are never to be unhappy again. What wonder that when they find themselves still liable to moments of intense unhappiness their resentment exceeds all previous resentments, and they are inclined to Maine each other instead of life. It seems like a depressing philosophy to tiige people -not to expect too much happiness. And yet how often the party we have planned and looked forward to proves a disappointment because of the Intensity and height of our expectations. Whereas the little Impromptu party from which we expect little brings us much pleasure.

"Life is full of sweet savor to those who do not expect what it cannot bring." I cannot remember who it was said that but he, too, plainly believed that one can heighten one's enjoyment of life by controlling unreasonable expectations as well as by trying to control events.

WAR IN THE AIR. Persona who have determined that it would be possible to outlaw war ought to be particularly Inlerested in the discussion now in progress In Europe, regarding the relutive strength of the British and French air forces. Premier Baldwin, of Grest Britain, recently called attention to wJbat he said was the overwhelming superiority of France in the air. According to bis statistics, France now bus in its air force 140 snmi'Irori as against thirty-six in Great Britain, and be susnested that thirty-tour air squadrons should be added to the British force.

If the air prosrnms of t.he 10 nations should be carried out, it is estimated that Great Britain will have 1,000 war planes in while France will have 2,000. In answer to suggestions that some agreement should lie reached for putting a limitation on air forces and thus doing away with the danger of a race for supremacy in the air, French government oflicials have been quoted saying tint Mub a thing would be impossible, because the manufacture of plane for commer cial use could not lie limited, and in time of war it would-be a fmnplo matter to transform commercial planes into war i planes. This question of supremacy in the air has injected an entirely new problem into international The experience of the naval conference at Washington demonstrated that something could he done toward eliminating rivalries for naval supremacy, but if rivalry is to be transferred from the water to fc'ie air no real progress can be made toward world-wide peace. In addition, there is the question of the of poisonous gases in war, a fist is by no means sstisfac- torily settled, particularly as between France and Germany, for it is well known that France is strongly suspicious thst in case of another war Germany would resort to the use of gas on a far larger scale ihnu iu the World war. All this shows that the world reached a state where cutting down armies and navies is no longer an assurance of international peace.

Heat stroke occurs especially In river valleys and lowlands and appears to be due to saturation of the hot air with moisture so that the perspiration cannot evaporate and keep the body cool. Other conditions that tend to have the same effect are clothing that is too tight or too heavy, and drinking too little water. Dr.

Sunlight is 'not the essential cause the heat of the boiler room, the laundry or steel foundry may equally cause heat stroke a better term than sunstroke, Among preventive measures the most important are proper clothing, plenty of water to drink and suitable diet. During hot weather peapls should eut lightly, particularly of sugars and fats which produce much bodily beat. They should take at least eight or nine glases of water a day and should wear light garments that are loose and permit the escape of heat from the body and the evaporation of water from the body surface. The essentials for immediate treatment are removal to a well ventilated, cool place and loosening of the clothing.

If the body temperature is low, hot applications should be placed around the arms and feet so as to restore the circulation. If the body temperature is high, the patient may 1 placed in a tub of cool water and the body vigorously rubbed with ice.
