BRANDEIS ARGUES
AGAINST ADVANCE
m .FRElGHT-RATES
Contends II Railroads Conserve Rev.
enues Properly There Is No
Need For Advance

Washington, April 27.-In argu-
nents and briefs submitted today to
he interstate commerce commission
by counsel for the eastern railways in
he advance rate case, government
ownership of railroads was suggested
as the only alternative to an increase
of the net revenues of the carriers.
On the other hand, Louis ID. Brandeis
special counsel for the commission,
offered a brief contending that II the
railroads conserved the revenues prop
erly derivable from existing rates
there would be no necessity for an
advance.
Consideration of the opposing con-
tentions by the commission will be-
gin Immediately, with the view OF de-
termining quickly the question of
whether additional revenues are need
ed. II the decision is that there must
be more income, then the commission
will take up the problem whence 1t Is
to come.
George Stuart Patterson. general
counsel of the Pennsylvania and o.
e. Butterfield of the New York Gen.
trail occupied the entire day with
their arguments.
Mr.. Brandeis in his brief declared
that it is shown that the aggregate
freight revenues of eastern carriers In
1918 was 81 200, 100000 and that the
five per cent advance would increase
the revenues about $5O,0O0,000 a
year.
1t is true, said the brief, that rail
road taxes have increased largely in
recent years, but the increase has
been general In all businesses and the
ratio of. railroad taxes to gross rev.
enues still is small. Railroads have,
IN common with other businesses,
been necessarily affected by the In
creasing rates Of interest generally
prevailing In recent years. But 1t.
must be remembered that interest
rates fall as well as rise, and we APP
pear to have entered a period of de.
clining rates.

offer Of the peace ENJOYS, but the
formal announcement tonight tended
to further relieve the slackening ten,
sion Of the crisis. The news was
given to President Wilson, who ex.
pressed himself as greatly pleased, al
though he would make no further
comment.
viii Not Announce Demands
White House officials let 1t be
known that they were earnestly de-
sirous of aiding the South American
diplomats in every way possible, and
that no announcements as to points
that would be insisted upon by the
United States, would be made, or any
thing else done, at this time which
might embarrass their efforts.
Throughout official and diplomatic
circles the belief was expressed that
success of the peacemakers so far
necessarily would have a favorable eff
feet upon the situation; that even al
though their efforts ultimately failed
indirect diplomatic communication be-
tween the United States and the HUI
erta government has been restored
temporarily and the chance of bet
ter understanding infinitely improved.
The tenseness of the Mexican situa-
ton was distinctly relieved today, as
the representatives of Argentina, Bra
I'll and Chile, supported by pressure
from all Latin America and from the
foremost powers of Europe, concentra-
ted their efforts toward a pacific ad.
justment Of the crisis.
The success of the first steps to-
ward mediation-the prompt accept
ance by the United States and the an.
nouncement of the Spanish ambassa7
dor that Huerta had accepted the
tender of good offices-produced a
feeling of distinct hope which was
reflected not only in administration
quarters, but In Congress as well,
where war talk gave way to a spirit
of Cancellation.
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1914-04-30

Mr.. Brandeis suggested that many
railroads had strained their credit by
.andus-- expapsi instancing, the New.
Haven, Boston & Maine, Frisco lines.
Rock Island and Pere Marquette. He
argued that the increase in the sew
eral Clements of cost of operation of
railroads did not account fully for
the inability of the companies to
earn adequate profits at existing rates
and that the general scale of existing
wages on railroads had not increas-
ed more than in other businesses.
Mr.. Brandeis also contended that
railroads in declaring that they are
weak as compared with manufactur-
ers do not know the cost of any serv-
ices which they furnish.
More potent as a cause of unsatis
factory net income than those enlm-
Grated by the carriers is their failure
to conserve revenues. That failure re-
lates in part to the omission to effect
economies and to advance efficiency
in operation and in part to the omis-
sion to secure payment for special or
improved services.
OF the per cent advance, Mr.
Brandeis said:
It would intensity existing injustice
and Discrimination in rates. 1t would
give additional revenues where relief
is not needed and would fail to give
adequate revenues to carriers who
are most in need of relief. The pros
porous coal carrying roads would
have their revenues largely increased.
Other roads, less prosperous, would
get a much smaller addition to their
revenues.
The investigations already made
make it clear that by conservation let
revenues may be largely and speed
ly increased and that the sources
available would include reven les far
in excess of the $5O,OUO,OOO which it
was proposed to raise by tariffs fled.

Day Of Waiting Reply
From Mexican Dictator

Washington, April 27.-Formal ac-
ceptance by the Huerta government
Of the offer of Argentina, Brazil and
Chile to use their good offices to
bring about an amicable settlement
Of the difficulty between the United
States and Mexico was cabled to
Spanish Ambassador Riano here to-
night by Portillo y Rojas, foreign
minister in the Huerta cabinet.
Senior Roja's note was transmitted
at once to the three South American
diplomats, who began a conference,
which lasted far into the night, dis
cussing the next move. in their peace
plan.
Solidarity Between Peoples
Neither Ambassador Riano, nor the
peace ENJOYS would make public the
text of the Huerta acceptance. 1t was
said, however, that Senior Rojas re-
piled briefly, accepting the offer and
thanking the South American pleni-
potentiaries and the Spanish ambas-
sador for their good offices, with a
reference to the real spirit of solid.
arity between peoples of h same race.
No conditions are imposed in an of
fer of good offices, consequently the
reply from Mexico City was not ex-
pected to deal with conditions. That
stage will be reached when the peace
makers formulate their plans and
make known how they propose to use
the good offices which have been ac-
cepted. 1t was suggested tonight that
they probably would ask the Wash.
ington and Mexico City governments
tomorrow for statements as to what
each would demand in the event form
al mediation were undertaken and that
upon the nature of the responses to
this request would depend the propos-
ais next to be submitted.
Unofficial advlces from Mexico City
already had made it virtually certain
that General Huerta would accept the

SUDDEN CHANGES IN POLICY
DAzE DEMOCRATIC LEADERS

Washington, April 81. ono al
Washington is very much dazed by
the w!ll-o the-wisp Policies Of Presi
dent WI son IN Mexican affairs. Lead
ocs of his own party hesitate IN the
course they should pursue for they
are not taken into his confidence, and
fear that the policy OF today may be
the repudiated policy of tomorrow. A
Democrat no sooner thinks he under
stands the Presidents position than
1t Is shifted, and all former deductions
are overthrown.
The latest is that the President
wants to arbitrate, and is willing to
accept the good offices of the sister
republics of South America as medi-
ators. 1t must be humiliating to have
him acknowledge his views of scarce
ly week ago as fallacious.
Refused Arbitration Then
Before the storming of Vera Cruz
the President absolutely refused to
submit the flag incident to arbitration,
and with great solemnity he went to
Congress to ask approval to do some
thing he said he already had author
ity to do, and which was done before
Congress passed the resolution draf-
ted by the President. Congress new
ertheless blindly followed the Presi-
dent, and passed his resolution; and
whether the resolution was aimed at
declaring war or not, the United
States is plunged into war, and AM
er,can sailors and Meyicans have been
killed as a result.

LONDON, Sept Wounded sol
diers. returning home to reeuperate,
are telling amazing stories OF the
fighting in France. One of them who
arrived at Waterloo station today
said:
1--WE lay in our trenches and wait
ed At the break of day, after sleep
ing with our rifles beside us, shell
fired from battery Of German field
artillery fell short of our position
and burst with a terrific explosion
some distance from our lines.
Overhead we heard the hum of
motor, and soon we saw German
aeroplane whose occupants were
doubtless signalling to the enemys
artillery how to find the right range
For the shells came nearer and near
er; the aim became better and bet
ter. The projectile fired from these
guns makes a curiously weird shrek
as it rushes through the air on its
journey of destruction, and soon the
shells were dropping right in our
lines Each one found its victims,
they fell dead and mangled, and we
were condemned to inactivity, for
there was no enemy within reach of
our weapons SO we waited and
waited, and this is the hardest test
of courage.
Fully an hour passed, and still we
were being shelled by the enemy's
artillery. Then. suddenly, the Ger
man infantry appeared and poured a
succession of volleys into our lines
They came in close formation. theil
gray uniforms scarcely visible unit
comparatively near to us. Our ma
chine guns came into action. and We
could see the havoc they worked, Tht
German ranks were literally mowr
down, but on they came, always il
increasing numbers, apparently re

long, what a relief it was to be dash
ing at them! They stood their groun'
until we reached them, pouring
hail of bullets into our ranks, whici
were terribly thinned. But our bloc
was up and we slaughtered them a
close quarters.

FOUR DAYS FEROC|OUS FIGHTING
DESCRIBED BY BRITISH SURVIVOR

"The ground was strewn with pros
trate Germans, killed or wounded by
bayonet thrusts. They fed. Our
cavalry came up and pursued them,
killing them by dozens as they ran
for shelter II was fearful sight,
yet, in the heat Of fighting, a soldier
glories in the destruction of as many
lives as possible; we could not follow
the cavalry, but we watched them
and cheered each successful on
slaught on the retreating Germans.
"Then a counter charge. The en-
envy had brought up reinforcements-
fresh troops probably. They outnum-
we moved to the rear we were deci-
mated. For four days fighting of
ferocious character went on. II our
losses were severe, those of the Ger
mans must have been appalling.
Again and again | saw their corpses
I in heaps.
| Another picture: Our troops were
moving back to avoid being sur
rounded and we were ordered to hold

ming, and we sought shelter behind

preached and we fired into them, UNI
horsing many and inflicting severe
losses. AS the Uhlans rolled from
their horses we eheered in glee and
went on shooting. Then their artil.
lery found the range and shelled us
with wonderful accuracy Our mum
bers decreased, and then their infan
try came and our losses grew seri

THE 800 dwindled to 100 and thai
100 became so. and then our task was

The science Of warfare: Just be-
hind our front firing lines the field
telephone had been laid by the engi-
neers. An officer lay on the ground
describing to the headquarters staff
the progress of the action around us.
Though full twenty miles away, our
general was thus informed by word
of mouth exactly how things were
going with us. His orders were
transmitted in the same way and
passed on to our commanding officer.
Suddenly the officer at the telephone
lay still and quiet. A German bullet
had struck him and he was dead
Artillery is not always effective.
Oar company was under the fire OF
the enemy's field batteries for fully
two hours. The shells pitched before

was so strange that | laughed. War
