the Dallas-Ft. Worth line, it seems that
the day of tjhe interurban in this part of
the state is headed out.
Who does not recall tjhe gala days
accompanying opening of the first intcrur-
ban line in the state—that of the line be-
tween this city and Sherman, which took
inace something over twenty-five years
back. i
Much water lias gone under the
bridge since that time, and with it many
changes in the form of travel and trans-
portation, and with it our habits.
Those (habits have been costly to the
interurban lines, and possibly the railroads
in some degree. The railroads have taken
steps 1 o meet tjhe conditions under the new
set of habits and have accomplished won-
ders. However, the interurban lines could
not meet the new situation so well, since
long hauls were not in the scope of their
activities like the railroads.
But there is a certain amount of com-
munity loss sustained that may not be re-
placed when we lose our interurbans and
city car lines to the bus, and the private
car.
But, with the increased use of the pri
rate car comes also more activity in build-
ing bigger and better highways, of more
garages and repair work, of increased
sales in autos and the other business rela-
tions allied with the gasoline and auto in
dustry.
As the old livery stable man adjusted
his business to the new situation, so mus*
the business concerns and interests now
on the way out do the same.

friends, to get a press on which
we can print more pages *at a

will read the Press for a few
days, they will be like I am1—I
think it is most interesting as a

time. You are getting out a very
creditable paper—one that tells of

is it is printed in the Press daily.

‘there will be some changes
made." And it is rather sugges-

one in a room, placed perhaps at one side of thJ

licate that the changes will be
for the worse, while others take
the opposite view. It is a good
thing to have elections in which
we ail take active interest and
when matters of vital concern to
all are discussed pro and con. It
digs the smug opes out of their
complacency and throws a scare in-
to the ranks of the “ins”. When
the “outs” become the “ins’ they
have a chance to show what they
can do. If they don’t perform
and make good, they will soon be
out.

an excit-
up in llic
The same group of persons who
fought America’s admission to the
League of Nations in 1910 and
1920—such of them as are left—
are today taking the same old
stand. Henry Cabot Lodge is
dead. So are some of the others,
along with the elder Senator Rob-
ert M. LnFollett of Wisconsin.
Still there remain Senator Burton
K Wheeler of Montana, Senator
Hiram Johnson, of California,
and the descendants of LaFollette.
^ One of the LaFoilettes, Phillip
F< onre Govenor of Wisconsin,
hut defeated for re-eleteion ap-
pealed before a Senate Foreign
Relations Committee Monday in
opposition to the Administration's
Aid-To-Britain Bill. He told the
committee that he called on the
then French Premier Daladier in
March, 1939, and “asked him just
what aid they expected from us?”
“He replied without a moments
hesitation," said LaFollette, ‘they
expected money, materials and
men.” Senator Hiram Johnson
interposed to lend the witness iiV-
to saying that “the money and
materials are in this (British Aid
Bill) and I have not hesitancy in
saying that the President would
he justified in regarding this legis-
lation not as an authorizaton but
as a mandate to carry out the full
implications of entrance into
war."
Senator Oonnally, of Teaxs,
asked LaFollette whether he had
made any reply to Daladier’3
statement in 1939. nnd LaFollette
replied in the negative.
In other words, a., then Govern-
or. he was meddling in something
with which he had no business
meddling. He was not an accredit-
ed diplomat of the United States.
Now as a_ beaten Governor, ho
is attempting to dictate the for-
eign noliev of this countrv. That’s
like LaFollette’s, the Jofmhon's
