Hughes big man in this decade and Des Moines transit debate
The Washington Post praises Charles Evans Hughes as a leading figure and notes Americans wish he had won in 1916. The author criticizes Des Moines streetcar service, urging a return to reliable transit with balanced bus use and highway support, and calls for bold action to avoid costly litigation and preserve essential city transport. The piece extends to agriculture, urging increased food production and farm support as global hunger rises. It ends with a reflection that, with summer here, readers should yearn for winter consistency.
