OLD-TIME COLD CURE
DRINK HOT TEAL

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the
tea, put a cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus breaking up a cold.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

the expense Of the states. He said that
he did not object to consultations of
railroad lines so long as they did not
destroy competition, that he knew of
no complaint against great railway
systems because of their size and that
he believed that the preservation of
competition was the test to be applied
to all consultations.
Regulation Of Securities.
Mr.. Bryan declared himself In favor
of national regulation of railway stock
and bond issues, but added that he saw
no reason why that should exclude the
states from acting on the SANG sub
ject as to state corporations. 81 would
like TO see the stock Of railroad, as
long as 1t is In private hands, made as
substantial and as unvarying as the
value Of a government bond" he as
serted.
He suggested that railroad capitali-
Zation be readjusted to equalize 1t with
actual valuation Of the property rep
resented, making due allowance for
equities, and that when this was done
the roads should be allowed to earn
sufficient income to keep their stock
at par and to create a surplus. The
latter, he tentatively proposed, might
he allowed TO amount to % per cent
Of the capital.
Railway Earnings Low.
This subject OF railroad capitalization
and the amount Of railroad earnings
received further attention from the
committee during its recent sessions
In answer to questions by Senator
Cummins. Mr.. Thorn submitted figures
showing the net earnings Of the roads
I'm recent years These figures show
that during the five years from 1905
30 per cent Of the net capitalization,
while for the five years from 1910 to
1915 the average was only 4.56 per
cent. The total earnings on the stock
computed by adding to the net oper-
ating income the income from the Sc
curities owned and deducting bond in
terest. were for 1910, 100 per cent;
for 1911, CIT per cent; for 1912, 497
per cent; for 1913, 5.94 per cent; for
1914, 4.O6 per cent; for 1915 3.44 per
cent, thus showing an almost contin-
uous decrease throughout this six year
period. 1t was announced that Hal
ford Erickson formerly chairman Of
the Wisconsin Railroad Commission,
would submit more complete informa-
ton on this subject to the Committee

Authority, he Contends ninks Haii-
road Stocks Should Represent Actual
Value and Be Stable as Government
Bonds.
Washington, Dec. IL. William j.
Bryan, who startled the country ten
years ago by advocating government
ownership Of railroads, appeared be-
fore the Newlands Joint Committee on
Interstate Commerce last week In sup
port of the claim that the states should
be allowed to retain Authority over the
regulation of all transportation lines
within their borders. Mr.. Bryan ex-
planned that he had long regarded gov
eminent ownership as inevitable, but
only because of railroad opposition to
effective regulation.
Against Government Ownership.
PERSONALLY | cannot say that | de
sire government ownership" he ex-
planned, because / lean to the indi-
vidual idea rather than to the collec-
tive idea; that is, / believe that gov
eminent ownership is desirable only
where competition is impossible"
Alfred Z. Thorn, counsel to the Rail
way Executives Advisory Committee,
previously had presented before the
members of the Newlands Committee
as one of his reasons for urging bet
ter balanced and more systematic reg
ulation OF railroads the argument that
this is the only alternative to govern
ment ownership. Calling attention to
the restrictions imposed upon the
transportation lines by conflicting state
laws and regulations, TO the practical
cessation Of new construction and to the
impossibility under existing conditions
of securing the new capital needed for
extensions and betterments OF railway
facilities. he warned the congressman
that unless they provided a fair and
reasonable system OF regulation that
would enable the railroads to meet the
growing needs of the countrys bust
ness the national government would
be compelled to take over the owner
ship of the lines with all the evils at
tendant upon such system.
Preservation of Competition.
Mr.. Bryan, on the other hand, holds
that the further extension of federal
authority over the railroads would be
a step In the direction Of government
ownership. He advanced the view that
the Capitalization of control In the
hands of the national government
would impose too great a burden upon
the regulating body would offer strong
temptation to railroads to interfere In
politics and would encourage the gen
eral movement toward Capitalization
Of power in the federal government at
