M'ADOO RESTRICTS EXPENDI-
TURES FOR RAILROAD
WORK
Director Generals First Act After
President Signs Bill is to Put
Damper on Extensions.

Washington, March 2I.--The first
act OF Director General McAdoo to-
day after President Wilson signed
the railroad bill, which provides for
$500, 100000 revolving fund and pre-
scribes basis OF compensation dur
ing federal operation, was to issue an
order restricting railroads capital eX-
penditures to extension and better
ments essential under war conditions.
AS the government has undertaken
the financing of improvements and
purchase of new equipment, the order
will safeguard the working iuF4=
The signing OF the bill opens the
way for the railroad administration
TO proceed with necessary extensions.
Mr.. McAdoo has created division
of capital expenditures. headed by
Robert s. l.ovett, former director of
priorities for the war industries
board, to supervise additions and bet
terments.
This division will scan requests for
new terminals, extension OF lines,
purchase of locomotives, cars and
other equipment, and all other enter
prises requiring expenditure of capi
tai. Engineers will report on the
necessity of proposed betterments
before they are considered by higher
officials. After being approved by
MIR. Lovett and the director general,
proposals involving capital expendi-
lures will go to the division OF finance
and purchases Tor execution. Mr..
McAdoo asked railroads considering
extensions to be guided by the war
time necessity for conserving capital,
labor and material and by the idea
that enterprises which might be
urritprious for an individual railway,
may not be desirable under unified
government control. He specified
that construction -ot new lines OF
branches and purchase of locomotives
or cars should not be undertaken
without his approNNl.
Extension work begun before Ian
nary |. when the government took
control may be COnt1llUcIt. No work
involving more than $4,000 Of the
capital account may be started with
-ut the director generals approval
bat enterprises requiring less do not
require specific approval providing

SENATE FAVORS $3.50 WHEAT
PRICE BY VOTE OF 4o TO 18
Agricultural Appropriation Bill Car
rying Senator Cores Amend
ment Now Will Go to
Conference.

Washington, March 2I.-The agri-
cultural appropriation bill with the
Gore amendment increasing the 1918
government guaranteed wheat price
10 $3.50 was passed late today by the
senate. 1t now goes to conference
between the two houses, where there
will be another fight over the wheat
price.
The wheat price amendment was
adopted. 40 to IS, after five days dis
cussion, in which its advocates urged
stimulation of production, and criti-
cized government price fixing. The
bill, carrying appropriations of $oS,-
100000, was passed without a roll
call, the principal fight being directed
at the wheat provision.
Besides increasing the federal guar
antee, the Gore amendment also pro-
vides that the guaranteed prices for
the 1918 crop shall be based upon
No. northern wheat, or its equiva-
lent instead of the No. variety, as
under existing law, and shall be pay
able at local elevators or railway
markets instead of at TIE principal
primary markets, as is done now.
These provisions are designed to in
crease the farmers returns.
Another provision is that the guar
anty shall not be dependent upon ac-
ton OF the present, but is hereby
made absolute and binding until May
/, 1919.
Acceptance OF the amendment by
the house is hoped for by its cham
pions. But despite the overwhelming
vote by which the senate wrote the
price increase into the bill. admins
tration leaders do not believe it could
prevail finally if, as has been report
ed. the opposition OF the food admin
i>tration would cause a presidential
veto.
Under a proclamation by the prcsi-
dent, acting under the food control
law as it now stands with the s.
guarantee, the basic price for lplS
wheat has been established at s.. 20
!e5ettteet fit the
crease urged that wheat at SIS
would not increase the price OF Hour
Beyond SIS or $3.50 barrel. The
price now is around $lI a barrel.
Senator Gore did not press his
amendment, providing for establish
nent by the secretary uf agriculture
oi uniform bookkeeping methods for
meat packers and sub lection OF the
packers books to official scrutiny.
The amendment was designed L"
meet recommendations OF Francis
ilcncy. attorney for the federal trade
commission in its meat investigation.
The senate struck out by a vote "t
IL to q, a provision in the bill as it
passed the house, requiring depart
ment of agriculture employees in
Washington to Wurl: eight instead OF
seven hours daily.
.An appropriation OF So4o.ooo for
the congressional free seed distrbu-
ton which had bee neliminated by
the senate agricultural committee,
was restored by the senate.
