WANTED A LITTLE AIR

When Mrs. Bartlett returned from
the District of Columbia Jail one of
her complaints was that there was no
fresh air. That the conditions still
remain the same is evidenced by the
fact that when fifteen men recently
broke of the institution, one, Al
bert Thornton, charged with wife
murder, voluntarily returned. He said
he had no intention to stay away but
only wanted to get little air"

Washington, Jan. 2l.-Director Cen

the government should retain operation
of the railroads for some time after
peace comes and not return them to

he had anything to do with the fuel re-

would be very beneficial
Some Regulating laws Needed
'It should be borne in mind" said
Mr.. McAdoo, "that by the end Of the
war, the public and shippers will be
accustomed to dealing with the govern
ment, and / am convinced that some
legislation will be necessary at the end
of the war before the railroads are
turned back TO their owners"
An entirely new situation, he thought
would be faced when peace came that
would have to be met by new and
comprehensive laws and that it would
be injurious to the stockholders to
throw the railroads back into private
operation without first adopting "com-
prehensive and rational legislation"
This, he thought would take time.
