PERSONS IN THE PLAY.

A capacity audience went to the
Missoula theater last evening. ready to
tolerate an amateur play for the good
OF the Red Cross. The people re-
manned to applaud finished produc-
ton of a rather difficult play.
"The Easiest Way is problem
play, Of the sort that was so popular
just before the stage became the hab-
itat of crooks and other folks OF the
underworld. 1t is known as one Of the
best written by Eugene Walters, but
it solves it's problem in a negative way
which reduces opportunity for positive
appeal for applause.
Nevertheless. Mrs. Allis and her COM
pany pleased last nights audience
very, very thoroughly. 1t is to be
guessed that careful attention was
given to each and every detail in the
local production for (which special
dispensation was given by Mr.. Walters
and by David Belasco, the producer.
The acting of Mrs. Allis was all that
could have been asked and her friends

of the amateurs in her support was

Washington, Dec. 12.-Extenslon
OF the government control of rail-
road for FIVE years. until January
/. 1924, was recommended to Con-
gress last night by Director General
McAdoo. Advantages of this, Mr..
McAdoo said, are that it would take
the railroad question out of politics
for the present. give time for carry
ing out an extensive program OF inn
provements, and provide opportun-
ity for fair test of unified control
to indicate the permanent solution
OF the railroad problem.
President Approves Plan
The President has given me per-
accords with his own view of the
matter" Mr.. McAdoo concluded.
The letter was addressed to Sena-
tor Smith, of South Carolina, and
Representative Sims, chairmen, re-
spectively. of the Senate and House
interstate commerce committees.
Mr.. McAdoo explained that to con-
tinue government operation for
twenty-one months after formal
declaration of peace under present
conditions would mean disruption
of morale among employees and off,
GERS, and could not enable the gov
ernment to go ahead with improve
ments and purchase of equipment.
Another alternative, the prompt
return of the railroads to private
control, without legislation to per-
NIT elimination of tho old wasteful
competition, would be "hurtful alike
to the public interest and to the
railroads themselves" he said, and
the difficulty of obtaining imme-
diate legislation providing a perma-
nent solution. is apparent.
Takes Service Out of Politics
There is one, and to my mind
only one, practicable and wise al
tentative" Mr.. McAdoo continued,
"and that is to extend the period
of Federal control from the one
year and nine months provided by
the present law to five years, or until
the first day of January. 1924. This
extension would take the railroad
question out of politics for reason
able period. 1t would give compo-
sure to railroad officers and employ
es. 1t would admit of the prepara-
ton and carrying out of a compre-
hensiYe program of improvements
of the railroads and their terminal
facilities which would immensely
increase the efficiency of the trans
portation machine. It would put
back of the railroads the credit
of the United States during the five
years period so that the financing
of these improvements could be sue
cessfully carried out. 1t would Of
fer the necessary opportunity un-
der proper conditions to test the
value of unified control and the ex-
perience thus gained would of it
self indicate the permanent solu-
ton Of the railroad problem.
THE American people have a
right to this test. They should not
be denied it. 1t is to their interest
that it should be done. In my opin-
ion, 1t is the only practicable and
reasonable method of determining
the right solution of this grave eco
nomic problem.
