PHONE HEARINGS ENDED
BY HOUSE COMMITTEE
Closed Suddenly Following State
ment of Administration Approvable
by Representative Lewis.

The District committee of the House
today closed its hearings on the Lewis
bill for government ownership of the
Washington telephone system. The
end came abruptly. following the state
ment by Representative Lewis, author
of the bill, that the administration as
well as himself is confident that So
ciety. acting through the postal agency,
with it's developed efficiency, can make
the postal wire follow the good roads
into every mans home.
The statement caused a commotion
In the committee. 1t was the first di-
rect statement by Representative Lewis
that the administration backs the
proposition of government ownership
of the Washington telephone system
Questioned by members of the commit
tee, Mr. Lewis went on to say that he
could state definitely that Postmaster
General Burieson is in favor of his
bill. and that he has understood the
attitude of President Wilson to be
favorable to it, though he never had
talked the matter over with him.
AS had been anticipated, Representa-
tive Lewis Withdrew section of his
bill, which provided for low rates be-
tween Washington kitchens and farms
in the outlying districts in order to
facilitate direct purchase of farm prod
uce. In withdrawing the section Mr..
Lewis pointed out that in view of the
general objections of those opposed to
the bill as regarding the experimental
nature of the project involved he de-
sired to change the term experiment"
to demonstration"
Representative Lewis further stated
that although the bill asks for $1,000
900 as a potential fund for developing
the telephone system in the District.
he believed that 100000 would be
sufficient to increase the number of
phones in use from 10000 to 100. 900.

arrived at Geneva, according to the Ma

Walker D. Hines Declares
Anti-Strike Legislation Is
Needed to Protect Public

Last nights meeting, of the conven-
ton of the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States was devoted to a
discussion of the railroad situation in
this country by Walker D. Hines. chair
man of the board of the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa Fe railway, and the
presentation of the national chambers
committees report on the railroad sit
uation.
The convention ordered a committee
to be appointed to call upon the House
and Senate commerce committees. now
considering railroad legislation. to as
certain the prospects of legislation at
this session, and to report back to the
convention before adjournment tomor-
row night.
Mr.. Hines said the danger to which
the business of the country is subject
ell because of the possibility of strike
is just as real now as it was last Au-
gust. and "a failure to deal with the
matter SO as to insure governmental
control of this problem in the interest
: .ne .noie people will leave business
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-02-01

subject at any time and from time to
time to the danger Of being paralyzed
whenever the railroad brotherhoods
believe their interests will be pro-
noted"
He said the brotherhoods hope Con-
gress will let the present session end
without action to prevent strikes.
In any event." he said, you can
count upon it that after this session of
Congress shall end. and after the Su-
preme Court shall have decided the
Adamson act test case, the country will
wake up to the brotherhoods' purpose
to have their own way or to paralyze
interstate transportation
Speaking on government ownership,
Mr.. Hines said:
Think of the bills representatives
would introduce, for new depots, for
new stations, for branch lines of rail-
roads in their districts. Why. the pres
ent pork barrel would look like a key
under those circumstances"
The committee report. the result of
a referendum taken among the bust
ness men of the country, recognizes the
right of the public in railroad differ
ences as paramount, and urges that it
should be made paramount by making
representatives of the public the ma
jority on all future boards of concilia-
ton and arbitration. The report backs
up President Wilson's legislative pro-
gram for settlement of railroad diff
ferences.

SUBCOMMITTEE NEARS
END OF DISTRICT BILL
Practically Completes Work, But De-
lays Action on Salary Question.
Bathing Beach Item Likely.

The Senate subcommittee in charge of
the District appropriation bill has practi-
cally completed consideration of that
measure and will report to the full COM
mittee within the next day or two. it
was said today.
So far the subcommittee has not placed
in the bill an amendment increasing the
salaries of District employees, it was said,
but this is only because it has not yet
been determined just what increases are
to be made for the federal employees I'M
der the legislative appropriation bill,
whether the Smoot amendment is to pre-
vail or whether the House provision will
stand.
committee is merely waiting to see
what the outcome will be in regard to
salary increases on the legislative bill
before placing a provision for salary
increases in the District BILL said a
member of the committee today.
1t was learned indirectly today that
in all probability the District bill as
framed by the subcommittee will con-
tain the amendment offered by Senator
Norris of Nebraska, which would pro-
vide $4,000 for the establishment of a
public bathing beach in the tidal basin
in Potomac Park. Senator Norris was
given a hearing yesterday before the
subcommittee and it is understood that
the members of the subcommittee were
so favorably impressed with the plan
that the item will go in the bill. 1t
provides for the construction of public
bath houses and for the publication OF
the water entering the basin.
If the project should go through it
will mean that Washington will have
a bathing beach capable of accommo-
dating several thousand bathers at one
time, and that at last bathing facilities
will be at hand which will permit resi-
dents of Washington to enjoy water
sports in comparative safety and with
out making long journey. The pro-
posed bathing beach will be under the
supervision and regulation of the chief
of engineers of the army

told of plans to decorate the Avenue be-

ments why the usual route should be
followed.
Chairman Harper promised the dele
cation that unless the grand marshal
has some specific reason for wishing
the line of march shortened he will
urge that the parade continue to Wash

it was Gen. Scott's idea to shorten the
line of march. The attention of the
members Of the delegation was called
to the fact that the grand marshal
plans to review the parade from the
