LINES BLAMED
FOR POOR BUTTER TRADE
Golden & Co. Witnesses Tell I. C. C..
Rates on Cream Shipments
Hurt Business.

Efforts of express companies coun-
into Washington We're not necessary
failed today in the hearing on the case
of Golden & Co. against the express
companies doing business in and out
of Washington. The hearing is being
conducted by the interstate commerce
commission, and Golden & Co are seek
ing an express service at reasonable
rate, instead of being forced to bring
shipments into Washington as baggage,
and then only on special trains.
That the railroads were responsible
for the failure of their butter business
to develop was declared to be a fact by
William c. Carter, president and gen
erai manager of Golden & Co. He gave
figures from the company's books
tending to show that the business was
not profitable. declaring that with all
expenses figured it had really been
conducted at loss.
Reluctant to Ship Cream.
He declared the plant had capacity
of 10000 pounds of butter in a ten
hour day, and when it was built in 1912
it was planned to run two shifts. At
the present time, he said, it was run
ming only at one-fifth its capacity, be-
cause the company could not get people
to ship their sour cream or butter fat
under the conditions now prevailing.
Under the present baggage shipments,
he continued, farmers are forced to lose
much time by having to meet certain
trains. then to load their shipments
and in some cases lose empty cans be-
cause there was no method of checking
maintained by the railroad.
Attempts of express counsel to get
an admission from Mr.. Carter that
overnight freight service would be as
good as express failed. Mr. Carter de-
clared it would not do. because the
cream would get too sour in transit.
He said it should be taken from one
point of refrigeration to another as
quickly as possible. although it was
not necessary to keep it cold in transit.
o. T. Martin of Golden & Co. also tes-
titled along similar lines.

man. is an officer in the local union of

 Since the three fighting Wards gained fame and shekels in the ring lnearly a century ago there have been many brother acts in pugilism, but the Wallach clan takes the lead. Dr. Louis c. Wallach, New York's fight. ing dentist. who is known in pugilistc literature as Leach Cross, is the best known In the bunch, but he has four brothers identified with the fight game Leach, the patriarch 0f the scrapping Hebrew clan has begun his thirtieth year, having been born on February Ing. 1886. to New York City.
 The last of the Wallachs 10 take up the big sport is Marty Cross, who made his debut few months ago, lt was a memorable occasion on the east side of New York, and for days before the Cross baby" made his first public appearance the event was her aided by sandwich men who paraded the streets of the Jewish quarter bearing banners printed in Yiddish. Marty didn't show much science, but he proved that he had a mighty right hand wallop. very much like brother Leach's favorite punch. Phil and Dave Cross have made fair records in the ring. although not in Leach's class. sam Wallach also had a brief experi- ment in the ring but he soon quit the game and is now manager Of the Cross stable of fighters. As boxer sa mis first clas business man, and he and his brothers have pros pered nightly
 Leach Cross is a practicing dentist, but he has found the fight game much more profitable than extracting teeth of his Jewish friends. in the last few years Leach has made as much as s80.00O Q year from his ring activities. In his last few bouts he hasn't been up to his old form. He has twice been defeated by Gilbert Gallant the French. Canadian fighter and Joe Shu- grue had the best of him in a ten round bout In New York last month.

OFFICE
 RECEIVES BOOKLET

A. Christensen. chief of the field di- vision of the land department of AL aska, is In receipt of an Illustrated booklet showing many of the improy- ed homesteads in the Territory Pre-. facing the booklet is letter by Mr.. Christensen to the Interior Depart, ment in which he strongly urged Con gress Co reduce homestead areas in Alaska from 32O 10 16O acres.
 Delegate Wickersham's bill, H. R. 184S7, contained a clause reducing the homestead area. but this as well as many other provisions of H. R. 1S4S7 was s,ashed out of the amended bil leaving the clause providing that sec. tions i6 and S6 should be reserved as school land as about the only thing of importance in the measure.
 Mir Christensen believes that. re- ductlon of the homestead area was and is ono of Che urgent needs in Al. aska In his wide travels over the Territory last summer he had abun- dant opportunity to study this partic- ular phase of the land uestion. and he give his expert opinion that the growth Of farm settlement would be enhanced and the development of the country hastened, by cutting down the home. stead allotments from S20 to 16O acres.
