SENATE PASSES RAIL BILL
Measure Now Goes to President for
Signature.

Washington, March 15.-Congress
finally disposed of the railroad control
bill when the house agreed to the con-
ference report adopted by the senate.
The bill now goes to the president.
The house vote was 3O3 to %. The
Bill had been returned to conference
by the senate to force elimination of
a provision inserted by the cOnferees
limiting the power of the states to tax
railroad properties. This provision
was taken out and the senate passed
the bill. The measure compensates
the railroads for the use Of their prop
critics during the war on basis of
their net income for the three years
ended June 80, 1917; limits federal op-
GRAFTON to q months after the war
authorizes the president to initiate
rates, subject to the approval of the
interstate commerce commission; ap-
propriates S5OO,OOOOOO as revolving
fund for the director general and
places all "short lines" under federal
control.

WHEN YOUR OWNS IN KHAKI
Army Takes on an Entirely New As
pect to Relatives and Friends of
Enlisted Men.

1t makes all the difference in the
world when your owns in uniform, OBJ
serves the Columbus Dispatch. You
may think you have a proper apprecia-
ton of the soldiers; you may feel that
you are patriotic; you may suppose
that you are doing all you can to help
win the war. But you will know moth
ing about appreciating a soldier, or
about patriotism, or about sacrifice,
until one of your own puts on a uni
form.
All of which is suggested by a little
incident of a recent football game at
the university, when the soldiers were
drilling. Few noticed it-for it was
not intended to be noticed-but the
few who did notice it grew mellow and
sympathetic, and left the grounds feel
ing that the world does not realize the
human suffering that is endured by
the women of this country at this time
A woman sat in one of the lower
priced seats. She came unattended
No one seemed to pay any attention to
her. She was dressed demurely, with
a dark veil about her eyes. She knew
nothing about football; that was not
what she went out to the grounds to
see. Her eyes were fastened upon the
uniforms; that was her object-to be-
hold the boys in khaki. And she sat
there while they were going through
their drill, and wiped tear from her
eye occasionally, and her bosom heaved
with emotion, and she spoke to no one
about her. When the soldiers left the
field she also left, unnoticed py the
throng.
Her own boy wears a uniform. That
was the sOrrowful, secret which she
held. He is somewhere in France"
She knew none of these boys before
her, but her own wears a uniform !;
that was enough. And so she sat there
thinking, praying, sympathizing, loving
these lads who are clad as her boy is
clad. 1t was great game Of football
perhaps!

Morris Sends Word.

Washington, March 15.-State de-

from Stockholm that some Americans
who left Finland On a neutral ship
after the German occupation were
taken prisoners.
The department also learned that 25
Americans who left Helsingfors have
been held by the Finnish red guards
at BjoernsbOrg, on the west coast Of
Finland, northwest of Helsingfors.
The information came from Minister
Morris at Stockholm, who cabled that
he had learned from American Consul
Haynes, one of the party, that passes
had been refused them.
All of the allied missions, except the
British, who were on their way from
Russia via Helsingfors to Sweden, got
through, Mr.. Morris reported.
The French had induced the Red
guard to agree to an armistice permit
ting passage of all fugitives, but this
arrangement was rejected by General
Manneheim, commander of the Red
guard.

"CoaI Savers"

Various preparations are extensively
advertised in this country at present
which are presumed to contribute con-
siderably to the heating power Of coal
when applied in the prescribed doses,
writes Consul General Robert P. Skin
ner, London. The director of fuel re-
search, in answer to an inquiry as to
the value of these preparations, states
that these proprietary substances have
been in the market a long time, but
that there does not appear to be any
genuine scientific evidence in support
of the claims of their manufacturers.
He concludes: "The nature of the
substances makes it highly improbable
that they have any effect whatsoever
On the combustion of coal or other
fuels when they are used in the guam
titles prescribed"

SALVAGE SHIPS WITH FLOATS
Sunken Vessels May Be Brought to
Surface by New CoIIapsibe De-
vice Recently Invented.

A novel method of salvaging sunken
ships has been devised by DR.. Sylvio
Pellico Portella, of Rio de Janeiro,
says the Popular Science Monthly.
The invention consists of a specially
built tender which carries collapsible
floats made of waterproof material
The floats occupy very little space un-
til they are put into use and inflated.
They are constructed in such a man
ner that they will assume number
Of different shapes when they are in
f1ated.
Taken down to the wreck by divers,
they are attached to the vessel both
inside and outside and are connected
with the tender by lines of hose. When
in place they are inflated by air pres
sure from the tender. AS they swell,
they displace the water from within
as well as from without, and their
buoyancy causes the wreck to float up
ward to the surface.

MILLION TONS OF SHIPS
Netherlands Envoy to See President
Wilson in Last Plea to Modify
Action-WiIl Double Meat
Exports to Entente.

Washington, March Is. - After
months of delay and unsuccessful ne
gotiation with the Netherlands, the
United States and Great Britain have
decided to take over on March Is for
the allies use all Dutch ships in the
allies ports, unless the Netherlands
government accepts an agreement to
that purpose before that time.
This will bring practically mill
lion tons of ships to the aid Of the
allies at time when they are sorely
needed.
The Netherlands minister, Augustus
Phillips, had an engagement with
President Wilson and it was expected
he would present from his government
a final appeal that the action be de-
layed or at least modified.
There are no indications, however,
that the allied governments will re-
cede from their decision. In fact. a
final communication Is understood al
ready to have been presented at The
Hague by the British and American
diplomatic representatives.
To Have Liberal Compensation.
In addition to being recompensed
for the loss of any of the ships, the
Dutch are to receive liberal compensa-
tions in export privileges Of bread
stuffs, which they need badly.
German pressure is expected to de-
ter the Netherl tnds government from
accepting the offer.
American officials contrasted the ac-
ton of the United States and Great
Britain with the attitude Of Germany,
which for months by threats has at
tempted to exercise a control over
Dutch shipping outside it's territorial
jurisdiction not warranted by inteTna-
tiOnal law or civilization.
Meat exports to the allies will be In
creased 30 per cent and perhaps dou-
bled shortly, under arrangements being
negotiated by the food administration
with the allies food representatives
here. The purpose is to build up the
allies meat reserves from the great
surplus which has been accumulated
in this country and which recently
brought relaxation of restrictions on
meat consumption. The allies would
furnish all the ships for moving the
meat.
