| II Would Mean Political Control and
Loss of EHiciency-DecIares That
Crisis Confronts Country on Account
Freight Rates to Be Found In United
States.
Washington, May 14.-That the Unit
| ed States is face to face with a serious
| crisis in its commercial affairs, due to
| the conditions by which its transporta-
ton system is confronted, was the opin-
ion expressed by w. NJ. Acworth, Eng
lands leading authority on railways,
before the Newlands joint committee
on interstate commerce at a special
session held here to enable the COM
mittee to hear his views before his de-
| parture for London this week. Two
steps are necessary, according to Mr..
| Acworth, to avert this crisis and to
solve the threatening railroad problem
| confronting the country.
The first is to allow the railroads to
| charge freight rates sufficient to meet
| the great advance in operating ex-
penses which is taking place and to
| enable them to command the credit
necessary to provide the extensions
and Improvements needed to meet the
| growing demands of business. The sec
| ond is to do away with the multiple
and conflicting systems of regulation
that now hamper railway operation
and to provide one centralized regula-
| tory agency with such local subdiyi-
sions as may be necessary.
Higher Rates a Public Necessity.
| Mr.. Acworths views on the transpor-
tation situation in the United States
were expressed in answer to questions
| by members of the committee, who
asked him to apply his knowledge
! of railway conditions throughout the
world and of the experience of other
! countries with government ownership
to the present problem before the Unit
ed States.
1.-The fundamental factor in the sit
uation is very simple" said Mr.. Ac-
worth. "1t lies in the fact that you
cannot get three-quarters Of a cents
worth Of work done for less than three
quarters of a cent, no matter whether
the agency performing it is a govern
ment or private enterprise. Freight
rates must advance when the cost of
performing the service advances as
it is doing at present, just as the price
Of bread or meat or any other COM
modify increases with increased cost
Of production"
In answer to question Mr.OAc-
worth said that he thought American
freight rates had been at much too low
level for several years past, that they
had reached this low point during the
period of cutthroat competition among
the roads and had since been held
there by regulating bodies. Unless re-
lief were afforded to the carriers very
promptly, he said, the result would
be tremendous loss to the people of
the whole country through insufficient
cy of transportation facilities.

Want Exemptions
More Than Ninety Per Cent of the Men
Called Demand That They Be
Released From Service.

Members of the Kenosha County Ex-
emption Board are hammering away try
ing to make soldiers for Uncle Sam s
army but it is an urhill job as nearly
all of the boys from the country believe
that they should be exempt from serv-
ice Most of them claimed exemption
on account of dependents but lot ex-
pressed the idea that they were worth
more to the government working farms
than serving in the army. Sixty-five
of the nearly two hundred men called
had submitted themselves for physical
examination by noon today and about
one-fourth of the number had been dis
charged as physically unfit. The boys
from the rural district are showing up
much better in the physical examina-
tions than the boys and men from the
city districts Ninety-two per cent of
the men passed by the physicians for
the county have filed claims for exemp-
tion, Secretary Torrey of the board
hopes to have all of the examinations
completed by Tuesday evening.

Curious People
Handicap Firenne,a
Motor Cars Block Course of Firemen
Seeking to Extinguish Fire
On Friday Night.

Police Officers on Friday night threat
ened to make wholesale arrests of motor
car drivers who deliberately rushed into
Main street and blocked the way of
the members of the fire department who
were seeking to reach fire which had
broken out in the basement of the
Kresge five and ten cent store. Fortu4
natelv the fire was not a serious one
but if it had been all of Main street
would have haen burned up before the
motor car drivers would have budged an
inch. When the alarm sounded the
drivers of the motor cars all seemed to
be seeking a place on Main street.
Police officers issued orders and the
drivers of the ears got mad until the
officers threatened to arrest them The
firemen were finally able to reach the
building through the alley The chief
of police served notice after the fire
that in the future motor car drivers who
show this sort of willingness to block
the fire department are to be arrested
and jailed.
The blaze was CT little consequence.
Spontaneous combustion caused fire
ii a pail filled with oil-soaked rags. It
was extinguished with generous use
OF chemicals and without any loss to
the owners Of the store.

Leo Ferg, 7-Year-Old Son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Ferg,
Middle ST., Drowned at
Lily Lake Wednesday.
SUGGESTS HEART FAILURE

The ifeless body of Leo Ferg, the
seven year old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Ferg, 525 Middle street, was dis
covered floating in the waters of Lily
Lake beneath the planks of the temp
orary pier, by his eleven year old sis
ter, Wednesday evening about five
O'Clock. Every effort was made to re-
suscitate the child, who could not have
been in the water more than ten
minutes, but the most vigorous measures
brought no Signs of returning life.
The details Of the tragedy, whereby
another life paid part of the annual
death toll exacted by the lakes, are
partially shrouded in mystery. The
family who are regular campers at the
resort, had returned to the lake but a
scant half hour before the greWsome
discovery was made by the sister The
boy was missed bnt a few minotes and
the helpers who were summoned by the
sister claim that the boy could not
have been in the water long. 1t is be-
lieved that he went out on the pier to
fish, lost his footing and fell into
the lake to be swallowed up by the
waters. The fact that no cries for help
were heard and that all efforts to re-
vive him were futile lead to the be-
lief that heart failure resulted from the
fright the lad suffered. Every indica-
ton seemed to point to the fact that
the fair-haired smiling boy had sue
cumbed to the waters with little
or no struggle.
Leo Ferg, the victim of the fatal
tragedy, was born in December, 1909,
at the home, row so heavily overcast
with sorrow by the drowning. He has
lived all his short life in Kenosha;
last year he was a pupil in the ST.
George school where he won the af
lection of playmates and teachers
alike. The funeral services will be
held Saturday morning at nine CLOCK
at the St. George Church, following
which the last chapter in the tragedy
will occur when the body of the drown
ed boy will be buried at the st. George
cemetery and the story of one of the
saddest accidents in the history of
Kenosha will be completed
