Many derallng accidents and other minor

that to do so would let down the bars

establishments to run that otherwise

requested the railroads under his con-
troll to state the total amount Of 81
per cent Liberty loan subscriptions

the two Liberty issues by the rail-

as director general OF railways, as
to the interest railroads have shown

Mr.. McAdoo's inquiry seeks the
now held by the railroads of
the first and second loans, and the
amount held for employees, as against
those bought at the time the loans were
fioated. He also asks the amounts of
each issue disposed OF. other than
bonds disposed OF to employees.
Amounts sold In the market or through
brokers, amounts sold at private sale
to investors, and the prices realized
for each lot sold and the dates OF sale
also are requested.
