MAY RAISE RAILROAD RATES
Increases Indicated Of 25 Per Cent. in
Freight and Passenger Rates.

Estimates made Monday by rail
road administration officials indicate
that an increase of at least 25 per
/ cert IN freight ard passenger rates
Will be necessary this year 70 meet
the higher costs of fuel. wages. equip
ment and other operating exnenses
! now set at between $500 100000 and
s75o. .00O,0 900 more than last year.
! Recommendation that rates be rails
ed by approximately this percentage
has been made to Director General
| McAdoo by his advisers He is ex-
pected to act within the next six
weeks and to put increases into effect
Immediately. Shippers will be per-
mitted to appeal to the interstate COM
merce commission under the railroad
act, and final decision will be with
the President.
Such an increase as is proposed
would be the biggest in the history
of American railway as the percent
age is larger than any ever sought
by the railways under private man.
Eagement and would apply alike to the
entire country. Both class and COM
modify schedules would be effected
I Rate experts of the interstate COM
anu Lie IdllEOdu
II administration now are at work on
new schedules. Any increase to be
ordered will be arranged in a manner
to preserve rate relationships between
communities and regions, officials said
4 today, so that industries and COM
mercial interests will be subject to the
same degree of rate competition as
at present.
Passenger fares would be raised un-
der the plan suggested to about Sc a
mile from the existing general rate of
little less than 1-2 cents
The proposed increases. it is esti-
mated would yield about 5000 0000.0 .000
-S70O.000,000 in freight and $780,
100000 in passenger revenues. This
would leave a margin above the es-
timated increase in operating expens-
es eventually but since the new rates
1 would not go into effect until the yeal
is half over, their yield would fal
several hundred million dollars short
this year.
1t is roughly estimated by railroad
administration officials that the road:
this year will spend between $500,
900 900 and $780, 100000 more fol
wages than last year; between S12O-
900 900 and $3.50 900 900 more for Goa
and between $18O,OOO,000 and $3.50.
900 900 more for cars. locomotives

American Alarm Clock Kept
Whole German Line Guessing.

With the American Army in France
May 13.-How an American alarm
elock. kept the whole German line
guessing and caused the Germans
useless expenditure Of large quantl-
ties Of machine gun and rifle anl,llu-
nition all one night was related to-
day.
The Americans had been trying for
some time to draw the fire of certain
enemy units.
"Leave Fritz to me-" said q happy
faced young American who, putting
an alarm clock under his arm. dlsaD-
peared into No Mans Land under
cover of darkness and fastened the
clock to wire.
+! Soon the alarm rang, whereupon
/. the Germans opened fire. The wire
had been so arranged that the clock
continued to ring internittently and
each time drew violent fire from
TIE enemy. Meanwhile the Alneri-
cans rested in their trenches and ell
joyed a hearty laugh.
An American officer turned the ta-
bles nicely on the enemy recently
The Germans had retired during a
bombardment to concrete dugouts be-
hind their trenches leaving the first
three lines to one man who went
around setting off flares so as to
create the impression that the whole
front was alive with Germans.
An American leader went over and
discovered the ruse. He killed the
one German. invaded the trenches
and gathered dozens of street signs
which the Germans had posted, re
turning to his own lines with the signs
tucked under his arm.

Germany is Planning New Series
of Big U-Boat Cruisers.

Realizing that America and the AL
lies have gained the mastery over
the present type of submarine, Ger
many is said to be planning a new
series of big U-boat cruisers with
which she hopes to again assume the
advantage in her unrestricted under
water warfare.
Just how effective the war against
the U-boats is shown by figures on
destruction of allied shipping given
to the naval committee Of the French
chamber of deputies Saturday by Min
lister Leygues. They reveal that sink
ings Of merchantmen have fallen off
to the point where new construction
is exceeding the destruction even now
before American yards are in full
swing on their great building pro-
