Woman Leader in Cleanup
Campaign Says Apartment
Houses Here Are Kennels

"The city's best apartment houses
are getting TO be no more than apart
mont kennels" Mrs. julius NJ. Conn.,
chairman Of the committee on streets
of the Womens Municipal League, said
yesterday afternoon at the annual
meeting OF the Anti-Litter League, IN
the Aldcrmanic Chamber OF the City
Hall
Mrs. Cohn declared that the terrible
dog nuisance" was one of the most
serious problems OF the city, and asked
for an ordinance banishing dogs from
the streets. She read the old ordi-
nance passed in New York when 1t was
first decided that hogs did not mako
the ideal street cleaners. declaring
that all owners who allowed their hogs
TO roam the streets should be liable 10
forfeit them for the poor Of the CITY
II would be good thing to have the
ordinance repeated. substituting dogs
for "hogs," she said.
The Anti-Littcr League, which is
only a year old, has accomplished 40
much for the publication Of the city
that Mayor Mitchell has written leu.
ter to Clarkson Cowl, president or
the league, assuring him that its worH
met with the entire approval OF the
entire administration, and wishing him
success in his further plans.
One OF the most important OF these
plans is TO secure $4,000 "block cap
tains" for 1917, whose duty will De to
see that those residing on their block
allow no litter or rubbish Of any KIND
in the streets.

Head of Railways Board
Appeals for Co-opera-
ton by Nation

Louisville, Jan. 1O.-Frank Trumbull,
chairman Of the Railway Executives
Advisory Committee and chairman OF
the board Of directors Of the Chesa-
peake g. Ohio Railway Company, at the
annual dinner of the Louisville Trans
portstion Club tonight appealed for
the cooperation of tho American peo-
pie In solving the economic problems
confronting the railroads.
"They have" he said, "the oppor-
tunity to accomplish the most import
ant piece of constructive work since
the passage Of the Federal Reserve
banking act"
He declared it was the peoples prob
lem Gust as vitality" as it was the
railroads problem.
To-day, even after the most pros
porous year in their history" Mr.
Trumbull said, ave find the railroads
utterly unable TO meet the demands OF
commerce. Railroad efficiency has been
seriously impaired and railroad credit
injured so that the business of the
whole nation Is suftrring from the lack
Of its fundamental interchangeable
transportation.
"To this statement doubtless the rail-
road critic would reply that during
1916 the railroads earned over $1,000
0,000-the greatest sum in their his
tory. This sounds impressive, but il
shows a return of less than 8 per cent
on the railVoad property devoted to
the use Of the public. . And in
the face of constantly rising cost of
Iahor and material this margin OF
earnings is bound TO decrease"
Meanwhile, according to the speaker,
one motor company, in 1916, had earned
5000 per cent on its capitalization, while
scores Of other corporations had earned
so per cent and more on their common
stock. In their investments, he said
the American people had returned an
obvious answer whether they would
place their money in "unregulated pri-
vate business showing such returns OF
in the over-regulated railroad business
with its many uncertainties and rela-
lively meagre returns"

SuffragiSts Cheered
by Wilson's Rebuke

Were the women of the Congress
sional Union cast down by President
Wilson's rebuke to them on Tuesday
Not at all. They picked as much en-
couragement out Of the Presidents last
refusal to help them as they did out Of
the recent election, in which, il will be
remembered, they set out TO defeat
Wilson, and when Wilson won they said
that they had accomplished wonders
because they had put women on the po'
litical map.
So yesterday, at a meeting At the
RitZ-Carlton Hotel, Mrs. Abbie Scott
Baker, one Of the officers OF the union,
told the New York women that IL was
plain from President Wilson's remarks
on Tuesday that he was about TO help
the passage Of the Federal amendment
for woman suffrage.
az have done my best" the President
said, land shall continue TO do my best
TO concert it the Democratic party in
the interest of cause in which | per-
sonally believe"
There, you seel" said Mrs Baker
triumphantly "He said he would con-
cert his party. Now, what does that
mean, if not that he will make more
effort than he has in the past to have
our bill passed."
DR.. Allan McCurdy said:
81 never heard such a silly. stupid
and nonsensical statement as that made
by President Wilson TO the Congress
sional Union yesterday"
Then he went on to advise the sui
fragists TO form at once a campaign
fund TO defeat Democrats in the by
elections two years from now.
you should put aside 30 cents he
said, "of every dollar contributed to
your organization for fund to dimin-
ish the working majority Of the Demo-
Gratis in the West"
There was a very large attendance
women standing ten and fifteen deep
around the doors in the hope of catch
ing a sight of Nine. Yvette Guilbert
who was the star Of the afternoon.
After the political programme she
appeared.
~ am glad TO speak for la bonnie
cause" she smiled, "be cause it concerns
not only America. but the whole world
IL is through women that peace will
be imposed on the world"
The women then took up the sober
task of passing resolution asking
President Wilson to push the suffrage
amendment Mrs. Belmont pledged
81 900 for the work of the amendment
and other donations brought the FUND
up TO about $4,000.

CALL LIGHTERAGE
FIGHT A MENACE
Railroads Say Differential
to Meet Crossing Hudson
Would Upset Rate Basis

The discontnuance Of free lighterage
at the Port Of New York would wreck
the whole freight rate fabric Of the
country. Such, at least, is the conten-
ton Of the trunk line railroads and the
commercial and financial organizations
of this and other cities opposed to the
petition for such a discontinuance made
by the cities of Northern New Jersey.
IL became increasingly clear at yester-
days hearing before Wilbur La Roe, jr.,
examiner for the Interstate Commerce
Commission, that on this contention
they would lay their greatest emphasis.
Other arguments will be made. such
as that since New York has spent hun
dreds of millions for the Improvement
OF tho port and New Jersey practically
nothing, il would be highly unfair TO
penalize this city for the benefit OF
communities grown rich on New York
business. They contend also that TO
give New Jersey cities freight rate
diferential amounting TO the cost OF
lighterago across the Hudson would be
splitting the port into two competing
halves and greatly retarding its wise
development.
Might Upset Rate Basis
Their main point concerns the
threatened disaster to the country's
rate fabric, built upon the tariffs
charged between Chicago and New
York, rates TO the latter point includ-
ing the Jersey terminals
Don't Sou know that the New York
rate is the basic rate from which are
calculated the differentials enjoyed by
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Norfolk -
was a question which Richard W. Bar
rett. chairman of the legal committee
OF the trunk line railroads, asked B. F.
Cresson, chief engineer OF the Board
Of Commerce and Navigation of the
State of New Jersey, who was on the
witness stand. But Mr.. Cresson, in
common with the other witnesses
called by the New Jersey petitioners,
took refuge in the plea that he was not
a rate expert and was therefore not
competent TO testify.
