National Association Wants To Be
Rid Of Responsibility for Acts
Of It's Parts.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 11.-Wheth-
err the central division Of the Asso-
ciated Advertising Clubs of America,
and all other divisions for that mat
ter will lose their identity as divi-
sions, will be decided at the Toronto
convention of the national associa-
ton, not by divisions themselves, it
develops. There is a move on foot In
the executive committee OF the ma
tional' association to have the divi-

hereafter.
At present the national association
exerts no authority over the clubs

The move to divorce the sections
came about following the passing
away of the Eastern division, leaving
items Of expense of about $1,000 for
the national association to pay, it is
said.

Reads Letter Before Senate
Charging Southern Roads Are
Being Used as instruments to
Destroy Private Interests
Declares Group of Finauciers Are
Systematically Looting System
to the Advantage Of Northern
Roads Owned by Same Group.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE
southern Railway system has been
"milked' out of S5O,OOO,O0O after the
fashion of the wrecking Of the New
Haven Railroad, according to Senator
Tillman. of South Carolina, in let
ter read in the Senate.
The letter, written by B. L. Du-
laney. of Bristol, Tenn, also charges
that the Southern, the Norfolk and
Western and other Southern roads
are being used as instruments to de-
strov private interests, especially some
of the Independent coal properties in
the territory tributary to the South
eFn Railway system.
This was read by Senator Tillman
to support his charge that the South
ern Railway is discriminating against
South Atlantic ports thorugh secret
ra e-making and other devices.
"Financiers Lootine Road
Dulaney is coal operator. He
charges that, through exorbitant rates
from the mines to Southern ports and
reasonable rates to the North, the
group of financiers who dominate the
Southern Railway have been syste-
matically looting that road to the ad-
vantage Of other Northern roads
owned by the same group.
Il believe it is a conservative esti-
mate" writes Dulaney, TO say that
the mines from Virginia to Ahbama
reached directly by the Southern
Railway could furnish coal now at the
rate of 100000 tons per annum for
tidewater business, and that this ton
mage could be increased at an enor-
nous annual rate if the operators
were only certain of their position.
This would increase the gross
revenues of the Southern Railway by
$4,000, 900, assuming that the tide
water rate Of S14O would be put in,
and when you add to the freight item
the value of the coal ITSELF the
amount would be s25,OOO.OOO annually
that would remain in the territory
served by the Southern Railway.
Southern a dumping Ground"
Il believe a thorough investigation
will show that the Southern Railway
has been dumping ground for the
sale Of other railroads at unreason-
able profits by the friends Of the
business associates of some of the di-
rectors
u have personal knowledge OF the
sale OF the Virginia and Southwestern
Railway by Henry X. McHarg at
practically six times what it cost him
or his company, when the Southern
Railway could just as well have
bought it directly and saved the five
millions.
Il believe an investigation will
show that such transactions, amount
ing to probably s5O,OOO,0OO or more
have taken place since the control by
the present fnanciers"
