WASHINGTON, d. c., May 10.
"A demand for the repeal Of
the Newlands railroad arbitra-
ton act, and a probable congress
slonal investigation of the arbi-
tration board which handed
down its decision in the arbitra-
ton case between the western
railroads and their engineers
and firemen, are the two deyel-
opments of national interest
which will probably grow out Of
the case.
The congressional nvestiga-
ton will be aimed at Charles Ma
gel, former secretary of COM
merce, who, according to the
railroad brotherhoods, had at the
time of his service on the arbi-
tration board such close railroad
affiliations as to render his sit
ting improper.
Want Act Repealed.
Aside from this investigation,
however, a demand will be made
for the repeal of the Newlands
act in it's entirety and the sub
stitution Of some permanent, ex-
pert, federal railroad wage COM
mission which will do in the field
of railroad rates of pay what the
federal interstate commerce. comy

awards made under similar cir
cumstances, was simply a COM
promise pleasing neither side,

1916, the date when the present
agreement expires. The railroad
brotherhoods- will undoubtedly at
that time again demand more
wages. Should tho interstate
commerce commission, as - now
seems likely, grant to the west
ern railroads the freight rate
increases which the rail railroads
are demanding, the engineers
and firemen would be in a. strong
position to make another = de-
mahd for wage increases.
Strike Threatened.
Unless some federal machinery
Is provided before that time, it is
likely there will be the same UNI
satisfactory compromises else,
much worse, a big railroad strike.
In view of the fact that the
regulation Of railroad rates has
been In the hands Of perma-
nent, non-partisan interstate
commerce commission for many
Years, there is strong ground
for arguing by analogy that the
mattefM making and changing
raifroad8rates of pay should be
given INTO similar non-partisan
and technical hands.

APPEAL UP
TO TACOMA

Persons outside of Tacoma are
more generous in offering con-
tributions to the College of Pu-'

e. H. Todd, president of the coll
lege, said that one outside man
had offered to donate $4,000,
another $4,000 and four others
$4,000 If Tacomans would match
their gifts.
James J. Hill has offered a
$4,000 donation to the school

gain and never be short again of
it, as in the past, but one sum-

of free sprinkling for the lawns.
The property owner OF ordinary
means can never afford to keep

so from a water meter.
The city authorities all the
