InadequaCy of wartime revenues
Of the nations railroads Is no longer
a purely economic problem. but a
vital question of national defense.
George Stuart Patterson. counsel for
the eastern roads, to-day, told the
Interstate Commerce Commission in
his closing argument for the carriers
in the fifteen per cent. rate advance
case.
He asked for a sweeping readiust-
ment of prevailing rates to allow the
roads to meet soaring costs. serve
more efficiently the transportation
needs OF the nation in the present
emergency.
An increase of s97, 900, 900 produced
by rate increases granted by the
commission earlier in the year, taken
into conjunction with the supplement
tai advance now asked, Mr.. Patterson
said, would give a total of S155, ,0O0,-
COO, or a little more than half the
advance of S27S.00O,000 in operating
expenses. AS a hearing must be had
for further increases, he. gave notice
that application will be made by
eastern carriers for permission to
file tariffs making such additional
increases.
Dominant difficulties of the car

Continuous decline in net operat-
ing income. accompanied by steadily
mounting, operating costs; marked
shortage in the labor supply availa-
Ele for railroad work; existence of
deferred maintenance when heavy
wartime traffic requires the highest
standard possible. and inability to
raise new capital by issuance of
stock, with a resultant impairment
of the carriers credit.
'As the carriers are called upon, -
said Mr. Patt s'son. TO meet COMPETE

prices are regulated or unregulated.
or to meet competition of labor with
the Government itself. the available
supply of labor will decrease and it's
price will rise. And unless the Gov
eminent is prepared not only to con-
script labor for the railroads but also
to limit its wage, we must assume
that the present cost of labor, meas

spite an increase OF S161, 900. 900 in

is less. he said, than the amount the
commission in 1914 found to be too
small for public interest.

Police Chief Would Put
Panhandlers to Hard Work

Something to put visiting hobos
and panhandlers to work is the thing
now needed by the police department,
according to Chief of Police Wetzel.
With hundreds of jobs open in the
city and vicinity. and higher wages
than ever before. c1u po-:ce depart
ment is besieged every night with as
many applicants as ever before for a
nights shelter. Nearly all the appli-
cants tell the old story that they have
work to go to in the morning. Many
OF them welcome Jail sentence dur
ing cold weather.
The chief of police is CT the opin-
ION that If there were an ordinance
permitting the police department to
put the men to work, they would
soon break up the practice. 1t is pos
sible that an effort will be made to
enact legislation in the incoming
Council to compel the visiting hobos
to go to work

LLOYD GEORGE
DEFENDS HIS
WAR POLICIES
Debate in House of Commons
Expected to Clear Up
Ministerial Crisis
BY AsSociated Prcss

London, Nov. 19.-Notwithstand-
ing that there has been a consider
able subsidence as compared with a
days ago of the excitement awakened
by the Paris speech of Premier
Lloyd George, the keenest interest is
shown in to-day's debate in the
House of Commons on the creation
of an allied war council and the pre-
mier's recent utterances-an interest
which has been heightened by the
conspicuous publication in all the
morning newspapers of President
Wilson's statement, through Colonel
House, concerning the necessity for
unity of plan and control between the
allies and the United States.
An unusual big muster of members
has been certain ever since the de-
bate was fixed, while an eXtraordi-
nary number of applications for ad-
mission to restricted gallery space
available to the general public testi-
fies how intensely the popular inter-
est is focused on the important sub
jects of the debate.
Although it has been understood
for some days that the premier's
critics have no intention of moving
a vote of censure, the government
has thought it desirable to issue an
urgent order to it's supporters calling
upon their attendance
Immediately after the daily ques-
tions are answered to-day, the gov
ernment will move the adjournment
OF the House in order to give free op-
portunity to discuss the momentous
issues raised. Herbert II. Asquith,
former premier, will open the debate
and Premier Lloyd George will re-
ply.
The Times editorially describes the
statement made by President Wilson
through Colonel House as 'incom-
parably the most important develop
ment for the allied council"
1T Is as guarded in tone" the
Times adds, "as it is comprehensive
in scope. 1t emphasizes un-
mistakably that the central principle
for which Premier Lloyd George is
standing-unity of plan and control" D."
Washington. Nov. 19.-President
Wilson's message to Colonel House,
as it is summarized in the Associated
Press dispatch from London, amounts
almost to an expression of dissatis-
faction with the Lloyd George plan
for joint war control.
