MAKING AN EFFORT
 TO GET RATES FOR
 PASSENGER LINES

SANTA FEE, N. M Aug. IA vigorous effort is to be made by the New Mexico Corporation Commission
 to get a three-cent passenger rate for New Mexico on the same basis with Idaho, Utah, Montana and Wy oming, and also lower freight rates. New Mexico has a four-cent rate Cn the large roads and as high as i've cents on the smaller lines. Cor poration Commissioner Hugh H. Will lims asserts that the people he rep rcsents are living in a new state which must be developed and that they have been charged too much
 by the railroads in the past If this is a good time to raise the rates in the East as matter of justice, he declares it is a good time to lower them in sparsely settled New Mexico as a matter of justice.

LONDON, July 29.-" Motorwom- en" have arrived in London at last In the provinces, notably in Glas- goW, women have been on the front end of tramway cars for several years, but in London some of the city officials objected to them.

DEMOb|L|zAT|0N TOBE CARR|EDOUT ON BASIS OF EACH
 MAN HAVING JOB

Washington, November 12. Demobilization of men in the military and naval service of the United States after their return from France will be carried out largely on a basis of the ability of trades and occ1pations to absorb them, under a plan being worked out by the labor, war and navy departments and the war industries board. It was said today that the plan will be submitted to President Wilson ill a few days.
 The war industries board has sent questionnaires to employers in all indus tries, asking the need of each for men, and the answers will show where. when and how rapidly jobs will be ready for discharged soldiers and sailors and what trades are most in need of them. Sup plementing this information will be that received from draft boards and com munity labor boards. which are to co-cp- crate in the work.
 The war labor policies board and tho United States Employment service will be combined to handle the labor de- partment's eno The war department is expected to establish a new bureau or to convert the activities of Provost Mar shal General Crowder's office to this end. General Crowder was suggested by some officials as the man to be se- llected for preserving the balance of power of the labor supply without de- laying demobilization operations.
 TO STABILIZE CONDITIONS
 With the conversion of industry from a war to a peace basis many workers also will be released from emergency jobs created by the war, but this problem has been taken into consideration by the officials who are working out plans for a general stabilizing of labor condi- tions when the soldiers are returned to civil life.
 In this connection, officials pointed out today that with the ending of hostilities there will be great resumption of pri- vate construction and manufacturing. held up and restricted because of war
