ADAMSON SAYS ROADS
BREAK EIGHT HOUR LAW
Congressman Ayers Spirit and
Letter Are Violated.

Charge that the railroads are fall
ing to observe the eight-hour law is
made in a statement given out by
Chairman william c. Adamson, OF the
House Interstate Commerce Commit
tee.
The railroads by the connIvance
OF the trainmen seem to be proceed
ing in the same old way" says Judge
Adamson. They are running heavy,
long trains, letting them lie over at
stations when they break down. They
are paying the men for time over
eight hours a day, entirely ignoring
the letter and spirit of the law"
Judge Adamson denies reports that
the compiling of statistics required
by the Cocktails eIght-hour commits
sion will cost the roads $4,000. 900 as
alleged. He says the roads, IL they
enforced the law. could run an aver
age OF 12A instead OF ten hours. He
points out the GoethRls commission
Is handicapped in observing effects of
the law because the roads are not
enforcing it.

COMMERCE BODY
LIKELY TO BUY
HOME OF ITS OWN

The Chamber OF Commerce OF
Washington is to have its own home.
Purchase OF such a home r. on the
program OF the board OF directors OF
the big organization, composed OF
1900 of WashinEton's live business
men, to be discussed at a special
meeting to be held this afternoon at
Carroll Institute Hail.
The Significance of the meeting is
some years ago at a cost OF over
800, 900, is to be the future home OF
the chamber II the board of directors
make the recommendations which 1t
was expected today they would make.
All the preliminary negotiations for
been quietly entered into, and when
the members OF the board have care
fully inspected the structure this aft
ernoon the plan is Immediately to
draw up resolutions recommending
to the chamber that the building be
purchased without delay.
A special meeting OF the chamber
will be called to consider the recon-
mendations OF the board.
The hall is declared to be ideally
suitable to the chamber and its plans
for extension of membership and
promotion OF the interests OF Wash
ington. There is a large auditorium,
banquet hall, bowling alleys, gymnG-
stun, committee rooms, library, and
many other rooms.
With the splendid equipment of the
building there is talk of adding ju-
nior memberships to The organization,
so that sons OF the members and 9TH
ers may enjoy the gymnasium, swim
ming pool, bowling. etc.
The finances to swing the deal are
today arranged for, and SO far as
human certainty can be there appears
&c be no doubt that the plans today
will go through without interruption.

The men travel about with a wagon

The United States will hold a
dominant position as = foreign
trader after the war II the oppor-
tunities offered are taken advantage

officials.
Under the new export control sys-
tenn 1t Is imperative that the Govern
ment gather a large amount Of special
information regarding shippers and
receivers OF freight in the foreign
trade all over the world. Equipped
with this information the Govern
ment will know the standing OF
hundreds OF thousands Of business
men In every country.

In this way American exporters
have lost thousands upon thousands
OF dollars in the foreign trade. To
a lesser extent 1t has worked the
other way. Imported goods have not
been up to sample. resulting In loss
to the American importers.
Under the new export control Bys-
tenn, It will be necessary for the ex-
port council to have the fullest infor-
nation regarding merchants engaged
in the foreign trade. Traders In all
countries must be thoroughly inVesti-
gated by agents OF the Federal Gov
eminent to determine whether they
are friendly to the enemy. The gov
ernments Of these countries will, to
large extent, work in cooperation
with American authorities. furnishing

The Germans, French. and English
have for many years maintained
highly organized systems. secret in
character. for the purpose Of gaining
information as to the standing and
responsibility of the persons with
whom they contemplate doing bust
ness. One reason why Americans
were comparatively unsuccessful In
the foreign trade up to the outbreak
OF the European war was that the
European competitors had superior
information facilities.
While the great fund OF informa-
tIon which already has begun to ac-
cumulate Is being gathered for Gov

Samuel Gompers, president of the

that true temperance will not come

that the radical prohIbitionists, ap-
