FOLK HAS
 NEW SCHEME
Advocates Comptroller of Corporations, Whose Duties Shall Be Similar To
 Comptroller of Currency.

Farmington, Mo, Oct. lo.-siov. Folk today outlined d plan of govern men supeYS sion of railways as a sub ,titute for the policy of government ownership as advocated by " -lliam Jennings Bryan. A great crowd lioten- d attcntiEely to the governor and cheered him to the echo.
 Gov. Folk believes that the govern ment should exercise a contro over the railroads of the country, the same as they do the national banks, but the government, state or nation should not attempt to own the roads. To supervise the conduct of the roads, Ae advocated a comptroller of corpora tons, whose duty shall be similar to those Of the comptroller of the cur rency.
 On this point the governor said: "A city or town is a business corporation, and all the municipalities. of the state should have the power to purchase
 wn and operate any pubic utility waersrer tbcS zee fl to d. so.
 "Whothol municipal ownership is wise or not, depends upon the condi- eA in each particular cas Ia som instances t is manifest!y y thc/proper thing. h others. owing to different rcumstancos. it might be unWise.
 The need of more strict laws in ,he state and nation for control of pub lie service corporal ols is manifest. If there were a comptroller of rail roads, appointed by the president, sub- feet to removal at pleasure, with ab s01ute lcwer to suspend directors G1 officials of interstate railroads violat ing the law. then appoint receivers tc take charge of the road until it oper ates and coulI furnish sufficient guar antee of more responsible management the result should be to remedy evil! now existing in railroad affairs.
