M'ADOO URGES
U.S.. TO HOLD TO
ROADS 5 YEARS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Extension
of the period of Government control of
five years, until January /, 1924, was
recommended to Congress last night
by Director General McAdOo. Ad-
vantages of this, Mr. McAdoo said, are
that it would take the railroad ques-
ton out Ct politics for the present,
give time for carrying out an extern
sive program of improvements, ard
provided opportunity for fair test of
unified control to indicate the perma-
nent solution of the railroad problem.
The Ir( sident has given me- pr,
mission to say that this conclusion ac-
cords with his own view of the mat
ter" Mr.. McAdoo concluded,
The letter was addressed to Senator
Smith, of South Carolina, an Repre-
sentative Sims, chairmen respectively,
of tie Senate and House Interstate
Commerce committees. Mr.. Meade
explained that to continue Government
operation for 81 months after formal
declaration of peace under present
c0nditiops would mean disruption o
morale among the employees and Off
GERS, and could not enable the Gov
eminent to go ahead with improve
ments and purchase of equipment. An
other alternative, the prompt return
of the railroads to private cOntrol,
without legislation to permit elimin-
alton of the old wasteful competition
would be "hurtful alike to the public
interest and to the railroads them
selves" he said, and the difficulty
obtaining immediate legislation pro-
viding a permanent solution is
apparent"

LAWSON STAPLETON
LANDS in new YORK

Mr.. and Mrs. Lawson StapletOn re-
Ceived a telegram last n4ght from their
son, Lawson, Jr., who is in the naval
air service, that he had just landed in
New York from France. No other in
formation was given in the message.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Stapleton
received telegram from Congressman
Crisp, at Washington, on the result of
inquiries concerning Mr.. Stapletons'
two sons, as follows:
War department reports no casual
ty to Frank Report that he is all
right and with his company. Navy de-
partment says they have report that
Lawson is present for duty at one of
the naval air stations in France and
is all right. According to all reports,
both are we'll and with their
commands"
Frank Stapleton is believed to be
with the American Army of occupa-
ton in Germany. One report reaching
here, which has not been confirmed, is
that he has been promoted to the
rank of captain.

NEAR EAST WAR
SUFFERERS FIND
WILSON AFRIEND

WASHINGTON, Dec 12.-Preparing
for a national drive for Armenian and
Syrian relief on the week of January
1918, President Wilson, a few days
before he sailed for Europe, wrote the
following proclamation to the people
of America for publication today, Civ
ing the movement his Endorsement and
pointing out the importance of as
sistance at this time in the rehabilita-
ton of these war sufferers. The proc
lamation:
For more than three hundred years
American philanthropy has been a
large factor in keeping alive Armen-
ian, Syrian, Greek and other exiles
and refugees of Western Asia.
"On two former occasions have ap-
pealed 10 the American people in be
half of these homeless sufferers, whom
the vicissitudes of war and massacre
had brought to the EXTREMIST need.
The response has been most gener~
Gus, but now the period of rehabili-
tation is at hand. Vastly larger sums
will be required to restore these once
prosperous, but now impoverished,
refugees to their former homes than
were required merely to sustain life
in their desert exile.
1T is stimated that about 100000
Armenian, Syrian, Greek and other
war sufferers in the Near East will re-
Quire outside help to sustain them
through the winter. Many of them are
now hundreds of miles from their
homeland The vast majority of them
are helpless women and children in

people of the United States to make
even more generous contributions than
they have made heretofore to sustain
through the winter months those who,
through no fault of their own, have

Portland, Me-. June 12.-Summer re-

has been given by hotel proprietors to
the belief in other quarters that the
war will have an unfavorable effect
upon the activities of the pleasure
seeker.
Real estate dealers and owners of
shore and inland properties assert that
the deman for cottages and summer
estates this season Is far beyond their
expectations. The city folks have also
been made to realize the fact that
with the cost of living still soaring n
more notably SO in the metropolitan
cities, a part of the summer season
spent in the country is by no means a
luxury.
