owners SEEK TO
RECOVER ROADS
RETAIN COUNCIL TO NEGOTIATE
WITH GOVERNMENT FOR
RETURN OF LINES.
ELIHU ROOT IS THE CHAIRMAN
CONTINUED FEDERAL CONTROL
WILL OBLITERArE LINES OF
INDIVIDUAL CONCERNS.

New York, Nov. 26.-An imposing
array of advisory and general coun-
sci, headed by Elihu Root, has been
retained by the National Association
of Owners of Railroad Securities to
represent it in negotiations with the
government looking toward the return
of the nations railroads to private
ownership.
In statement issued by S. Davies
Warfeld on behalf of the executive
committee, which has been holding
meetings to consider the situation, il
was declared that the governments
present policy is obstructive OF the
individual credit of the railroads and
that furthermore the present condi-
tions cannot continue without the OBJ
liberation of railroads as individu,.
concerns" The statement continues
eff the railroads are to be returned,
as Congress intended and provided
they should be, this cannot be carried
out under methods which are destruc-
tive of the very facilities which have
oeen built up by the expenditures O.
millions of dollars for the promotion
of enterprise and the convenience o.
business and the public"
The methods employed by the rail
road administration up to this time
may be contended to have been nee
essary for the purpose of the Wal,
Mr.. Wakefield said, but what is done
from now on, "nlust be taken as in
dicating that roalroad policy of the
administration" he added.
cit is proposed to carry out the in
tentions of Congress or it is intended
to use the railroads for laying the
foundation for permanent government
control and operations under sucl
plans as the present railroad admin
istration may desire as the forerunner
of government ownership.
"Congrsss made no provision in the
act for any such use of them, but O
the contrary, it specifically provides
for their return"
The federal control act relative to
railroads provides not only for their
operation by the government in tn
period of the war, but for their re.
turn within ga reasonable time there
after with the maximum at twenty
one months"

people, became the problems OF all
nations. Some had forseen the shock
of peace and had prepared against it.
Among such was Great Britain. The
following cable from London carried
in the morning papers of November
18th, indicates in a general way the
thoroughness with which Great Brit
ain had prepared for peace problems.
London, Nov. 10. - The govern
ment tonight issued a statement that
the minister of reconstruction will an
nounce the governments general re-
construction policy to parliament on
Tuesday.
In the mean time, elaborate instruc-
lions have been given for the slowing
down of munition production and the
replacement of the workmen with a
scheme of donations for unemploy-
ment, to remain in force for six
months.
In contrast to this was the condi-
ton, bordering on panic, which pre-
vailed in the United States on No
venmber 7th when it was prematurely
and enormously announced that an ar
mstice had been signed. David Law
renee, the well kn,wn pro- administra-
ton newspaper correspondent at
Washington, writing in the New York

Roumania, 5,7s2,765, and Asia, 1874

Roumania, 5,792,765, and Asia, 2,792,-
765 francs.
A vast portion of the foreign sub
scriptions, as well as the domestic,
were paid in letters of exchange, the
French government seeking all paper
for exchange and all the bills it could
get, no matter on what country
drawn. Of the exchange letters Ger
man funds i'm discharge of indebted
ness amounted to 2,799,514,184 hancs
and funds other than German to
1,44S,812, 100.
What gave France the ability so
to finance the indemnity that specie
payment upon it was held at such
small totals? Beaullieu found that II
lay chiefly in the opportunities French
bankers had, seeking to make remit
tances to Germany, to buy foreign SCI
curities on the Paris market and sell
them on the Berlin or Frankfurt sex-
change. In this regard it were wen
again to refer to Lean Say. BECAUSE
of the fact that the French investment
in foreign securities before the war
of 1870" he declared. "involved a
yearly coupon revenue of 600 to TOO
million francs, and because the an
nual expenditure in France by foreign
tourists was at least 200 to 300 mif-
lions, it followed that France had a
yearly supply of exchange bills on for
eign markets amounting to at least
800 million francs and possibly one
billion Before the war, this was
either invested in new issues of for.
eign securities or used to command
import of gold. This was why France,
either before or after 1870, could
easily place 100000 francs in a
foreign market in three years without
causing a monetary crisis"

Worlds Aluminium Supply.

Though Switzerland led the world in
the early electrolytic production OF
aluminium, France has been the chief
producing nation since 1895, and sup
piled as much as 1872 per cent Of the
worlds annual total at the time Of the
outbreak of the war. The 10 plants
for electrolytic aluminium had ih 1914
an aggregate Of 10000 horsepower
with capacity Of 10000 tons year.
The three plants Of the United States
supplied 25.8 per cent Of the worlds
product; the two plants Of Switzer-
land, 12.4; the two English plants, 7.8;
the one Canadian plant, 90, and the
two plants Of Norway, 4.3. French
supremacy has been due to the supe'
rior quality of the bauxite mined.

SOME OF THE REALLY BIG
THINGS ACCOMPLISH BY OUR
UNCLE SAM IN WAR PERIOD

Here are some of the things the
United States has contributed to the
triumph of the allied armies:
A war chest of $4,000, 10000 for
expenses up to the end of the cur
rent fiscal year Of this $7,017,000,-
900 has been extended to our allies
in the form of loans.
An army of 100000 authorized
strength. More than 100000 are on
the battle ground after being trans
ported 5000 miles through submarine
infested waters, while another million
and quarter were training and en-
barking here at the moment Ger
many surrendered.
A navy Of 1000 fighting ships that
has protected our steram of trans
ports through the war zone and at
the same time helped keep the Kais-
er's fleet harmless in German ports.
Fully 100000 tons of foodstuffs,
shipment of which saved our allies
from hunger, much of which repre-
scented the cheerful self-denial of
America.
Countless articles of latest army
equipment, including some of the
mightiest engines of war yet devel-
oped, wrought by a peaceful nation
suddenly becoming an arsenal.
Nearly 100000 dead weight tons
of merchant shipping and transports
to help overcome distinctions by u
boats.
The Red Cross and countless other
relief workers giving food, medicine,
clothing and comfort incalculable.

Flashes of Class
in "Flo Flo" at
The Oliver

"Flo-Flo" is a good musical en-
te~tainment after a long arid spell,
and was we'll received by two friend
" audiences at the Oliver Saturday.
II will be repeated again this eve
ming. The cast is adequate and
there are a good many specialties
that divert. some Of them drawing
enthusiastic approval and requiring
,epetition.
The production is "spotty" in its
merits. flashes OF real class being
evidenced in various parts, while In
others it drags along on the level of
the mediocre. on the whole. how
ever. there is nothing to quarrel
with about "Flo-FlO."
The piece opened obviously, It
must be admitted, principally be
cause Of the press agents insistent
references to a perfect SO" chorus.
Had this not been heralded so as
siduously the discrepancies might
not have been so noticeable. Not
even peerless 'Flo-F1o" herself
could be indisputably accorded the
distinction claimed for all her satel-
lites The costumes, too, in the open
ing number could well stand a little
furnishing; those in the later scenes
were gorgeous enough to spare a
little of their elegance. These is a
very generous display Of "unmen-
tionables" were were quite mention
able, and a really wonderful exhibit
ton Of cloaks that impart a certain
air to the performance.
Among those featured in the cast
are Ivy Scott I'm the title role, expert
enced actress with only a fair voice;
Jere Delaney, who fitted through
his part with engaging breeziness;
Jeo1wErankel, who did all that could
be dWe for his good comedy role:
William Cummings, with a cutie"
face and an engaging preseSce:
Cynthia Kellog. a winsome little
bride-to-be, who has voice Of
sweetness. though she sings with ap
parent effort; Augustus Buell., a very
convincing Spanish count; Rhea
Norton. his fiery and persistent
Spanish sweetheart; and the Inness
Brothers. The latter team won the
major share OF applause for mixing
a good deal Of cleverness with their
excellent dancing. Some of their
eccentricities called for two and
three repetitions. They helped in
deed, to make the entertainment.
