LIBERAL TREATMENT Of
RAILROADS IS URGED

Liberal treatment for the railroads
urged by Senator Pome-ene of Ohio,
democratic member of the Senate IN
terstate commerce committee, when
the Senate today resumed considera-
tion of the administration railroad
measure. Congress, he declared,
should remember that more than one
million people have money invested
in rail securities.
Il realize" said Senator Pomerene. in
declaring that liberal rather than a
parsimonious compensation provision
should be retained in the bill. that
railroads have, overcharged commune
ties. have evaded taxes and their man
ayers manipulated stocks. But Con-
gress ought not to approach this sub
Ject now as if it were going to penalize
the railroads for things committed
years ago. The railroads are owned by
the people of the country. When sena-
tors cut compensation to the bone they
are striking at the savings of over a
million people"
Another amendment to the bill was
introduced today by Senator Robinson
of Arkansas, proposing to eliminate e
from the basis Of compensating the
railroads the amount alleged to have
been invested by them in property dur
ing the six months ended December 81
last.
Quick enactment of the railroad bill
so as not to hamper or delay vital ar
rangements for equipment and other
purpose, was urged in a letter from
Director General McAdoo to Chairman
Sims of the House interstate commerce
committee read today to the House.
Mr.. McAdoo said every days delay i'm
