CLASH OVER
PHYSICAL
VALUATION
fRv Associated Praaa.1

Washington, Jan. 30.-The rail-
roads first attack in what promises
to be long legal battle over methods
pursued by the interstate commerce
commission in determining the phys
ical valuation of railroad properties
throughout the United States, was
made in hearing on the commits
sion's findings in the case OF the At
lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic and
the Texas Midland railways.
Counsel devoted the day to the first
two OF forty-o points OF contention
raised. Sweeping charges were made
that the commission failed to obey the
instructions OF the law in making val
uations and failed to include a great
may intems which 1t should have in
cluded. Whether trackage rights of
a railroad over connecting lines
should be included, and If so, at what
figure, was debated, counsel for the
Texas Midland declaring that four
teen miles OF the roads main line had
been omitted because the road did
not own the property outright, but
merely had leased trackage rights over
this stretch.
Counsel for the four railroad broth
erhoods announced that he wished to
present some general theories" but
was advised that discussion would be
limited to technical points under con-
sideration.
The hearing probably will last a
week or more.

Aluminium goods are now used by
many people. The demand for Kitchen
utensils, toilet articles, airplane frames.
and automobile parts is growing rap
idly. Aluminium is used where great
strength and lightness are needed, but
no perfect solder has yet been discov-
cred for 1t. In 1888 the total produc-
ton was only SO pounds. In 1914, So
last year over 2OO.OO0.000 pounds were
made.
Sugar produced in British Guiana
last year was 10000 tons from 73,108
acres. OF this, 116,224 tons were ex-
ported.

POPULAR CITIZEN PASSES AWAY.

George D. Hall, known as the faith
full and reliable permanent secretary
of the Arapahoe Lodge, Grand United
Order of Odd Fellows in lodge circles,
and expressman for number of years
in this city, answered the death sum-
mons last Saturday at his former res
idence, 4265 Acoma street.
He was very prominent in the up
building and stability of Arapahoe
Lodge. one of the leading and strong
est factors of Odd fellowship in the
West, devoting the most of his time
and energy to it's growth and success.
Untiring in his devotion to duty, ex-
hibiting the true quality of patience,
his ever smiling face seemed a bea-
con which guided others to serve with
faithfulness and reliability the various
Offices they held in the order. His
popularity as a citizen that will be
missed was also established in his
capacity as an expressman, serving
all members of the community, as well
as the leading firms and stores of
Denver. He departs this life to join
his wife in the Great Beyond, she
having died about two years ago, ana
now leaves to mourn his loss a son,
daughter, sisters, other relatives and
an innumerable host of friends Fun
eral services will be held tomorrow
from the Central Baptist Church, 24th
and California Streets, at 1 p. M, un-
der the auspices of the Odd Fellows
and other fraternal societies he was
connected with.
