RAILROAD COMPANIES ASKED TO

TO PREVENT FLOODS
And Preserve Forests-Systemat'c
Record TO be Kept at All
Railroad Bridges-Daily
Readings.

Washington. Sept. 27-Director
George Otis Smith. of the United
States geological survey, has invited
iefticers of the leading railroads OF the
country to a conference on CO.
operative plan By which II Is expected
the railroads will be able to save
thousands OF dollars year. The plan
also eontemplates most effective as
Stance to the government on the Fart
of railroads. The time and pace et
tta proposed conference is TO be
agreed on later.
The scheme, which has already
been approved by a number Of the en-
gin. ers of the big lines, Is one for the
gathering of facts as to the amount
of water flowing in the rivers of the
country under certain conditions and
in different periods Of the year
! Naturally the railroads have been
chief sufferers from floods in the
basins where their tracks lie. They
have suffered not only from damage
to their own property but they have
been sued by other corporations and
private citizens on the ground that
their bridges and eulverts were the
causes of flood damage. The railroad
authorities have felt that may judg-
merits against the roads might not
have been rendered if they had been
able to produce authentic figures on
foods. But they have not been able
to DO this The National Conservation
lcomn lssion has been advised CT t e
proposed plan ard whateevr rasu Is

sidcred by the commission at its joint
meeting with the governors of th'
states or their representatives here
next December,
Tho survey suggests that the rail
roal companies establish gauges on
their bridges and culverts and appoint
some of their employees to take daily
readings The survey agrees to have
it's experts make frequent v.si's TO
these stat 'ons and take actual current
meter measurements so that a IA ing
table Of each channel will be avail
able
For many years the survey has
been studying the difference in the
How cf rivers in various basins in the
country. At present It Is engaged ia
putting the information gained by it's
study into shane for the use of the
National Conservation mmission,
together with other information
whicn it is gathering especially for
the Inventory of the countrys natural
resources that the commission is pre-
Iraring
The survey has been unable to eX-
tend rs observations to many regions
where the information would be of
vital importance becarse it lacks
funds. The cooperation Of the rail
roads would permit the survey to
cover many regions.
The expense to the railroads under
this arrangement would be trihing.
the survey authorities say because
the roads could designate men already
on their payrolls. such as draw ten
ldcss tank men, or water station en-
rineers to take the daily readings. On

pleasure of riding over a few

We heartily believe if everyone
interested in keeping up roads,
would make a trip over this lit
tie stretch of road, that they
would make it their duty to see
that every foot of road in Bar
ton county was treated in the
Same manner. If you think that
it makes no difference, just try
dragging a piece of road and
note the results.

simpler than our present methods. In
sorder to ablish9a claim for liability
under the existing statutes the prac-
tice Is cumbersome and expensive.
Long drawn out contests crowd the
dockets Of the courts, entail large ex-
pense on the employer and finally
yield only q small pittance to the In
sjured employee or his dependents
when damages are actually awarded.
The law granting compensation to-
government employees, passed at the
first session Of the present congress,
should be extended in scope SO all to-
embrace classes OF employees not now
included and should be made more
liberal in its terms. The compensation
at present paid one years earnings
is pftifully inadequate where total dis
ability results from an injury or where
death leaves a dependent family +,

The national government should be

he says. aas it is to protect agricuI-
tural products against pests and farm
stock against disease. =
Discussing the problem of the unen-
ployed, Secretary Straus recommends
a more scientific distribution OF labor.
This can be accomplished by the gov
ernment, he says, In supplying ainfor-
nation to all Of our workers, whether
native, foreign born or alien, SO that
they may be constantly advised in re-
spect to every part OF the country as
to what kind Of labor may be in de-
mand, the conditions surrounding it,
the rate Of wages and the cost Of liy-
ing In the respective localities 2
This would greatly aid in Keeping
large numbers Of undesirable foreign
ers at home, says Secretary Straus, as
many aliens now come to America
with little money and lack OF quail
fications to do the work they expect to
do. n XII la
