BALTIMORE. Now. IS. Charles
Stone Wight recently left the bridge
on which he had stood FOR several
years as general freight traffic man
ager OF the Baltimore and Ohio sys-
tenn. directing the large volume of
tonnage moving north, east, south.
and west over the lines operated By
his company. In the fifty years that
he had followed "raIlroadIng he had
learned In minute detail all about
traffic from the raw material stage
until it reached the ultimate con
sumer, Just as the old mariner learns
the lanes Of travel through which his
steamer travels.
The announcement made few
days ago By the railroad manage
ment that Mr.. Wight at his own re
quest had been relieved or these du-
ties IN order to devote his time to
advisory work In connection with .
Tearrangemento OF the traffic organiza-
ton took the veteran official back
over his career in reflection on some
of the events which stand out as
markers along the way. noting
changes which have come about in
the ethics Of the railroad and other
lines OF business. And Mr.. Wight
contends that the ethics or railway
administration have been elevated I'D
the same deSree-and IN many IN
stances to#a greater degree than in
many other lines Of business actiY-
Valuable Reports.
The day that Mr.. Wight secured
his se1f-requested relief he COM
p1eted his study OF reports which for
years had come to his notice cover
ing every twenty-four hours or the
Sbuafness day and showing the fluctu-
ation Of trade in commercial Amer
lea he had cleared off the mass or
correspondence and forwarded his
situation records to the executives
who compose the management. And
it may be said. parenthetically, that
these situation reports mean as
much to the railway executives IN
enabling them to keep their figures
On the pulse of business as the hulle-
tins concerning the course Inf +r- n
winds mean to the weather prophet.

Shoe PRICES TO SOAR
FULLY 20 Per CENT
Hide Shortage. Population Increase,
Army Shoes and Autos Cause Ad-
vance in Footwear Rates.

A side-effect Of the far-away war that
interests evry man, woman and child Is
the announcement OF the fact that shoes
must this season advance in price.
The generally reported scarcity Of
leather and increased cost of tanning
mously increased demand for leather, all
account for the advanced cost of foot
wear.
Millions Of pairs OF shoes for the Euro
pean armies have been and still are be-
ing made by American shoe manufactur-
ers. On the average, these army shoes
consume one and one-half as much
leather as the average American mans
shoe.
Knapsacks, saddles, harness and other
material for the armies at war and a
general increase in equipment OF the
American army and State militia account
for a still further demand on the none too
large supply of leather.
Munitions plants have called for thou
sands Of feet of leather betting and the
general picking up of business has started
thousands of factories wheels and
greatly augmented the call for betting.
Autos have also made great and in
creasing inroads into the available leather
supply for uphOlstering.
Leather is a by-product. The supply
cannot be increased at will as crops and
metals are, but is dependent on the hide
supply; and cattle are not killed, pri-
marily, for their hides.
The latest census reports show that
the cattle population has decreased %
per cent in the last ten years, and the
population has increased the same per-
centage.
Shoes, therefore, are to be more ex-
pensive. 1t is said that the increase for
the present will be about 20 per cent,
but will likly be more by next fall.

Commissioner Kutr will take the stand
this morning in opposition TO the meas
ure.
Mr.. Ham explained the sole intent Of
the blu was greater efficiency In opera
ton and service.
THE railway company owns the stock
Of the lighting company, and now
wishes to take over the physical prop
erty of the Potomac Electric Power
Company" said Mr.. Ham. 1T is simply
a legal fiction that they are separate
companies. Consolidation would DO away
with separate directors, booklceepers,
contracts, bank accounts, checking ac-
counts. and many other duplicated de-
tails We believe the merging Of the
two companies would also simplify the
matter Of regulation by the Public
Utilities Commission. In forty-four
States the lighting and railway COM
panies are combined"
