Byrnes Visits President.

Washington, May 24.-There is
renewed interest here today over
a recent visit of Representative
Byrnes to the White House. 1t is
known that the president sent for
Mr.. Byrnes to confer with him, but
after the conference Mr.. Byrnes
declined to state the purpose of
his visit. Inasmuch as Mr.. Byrnes
is member of the appropriations
committee, now considering the
large appropriations for the con-
duct of the government, it may be
that the conference was with ref
erence to some of the many i'm
portant matters before the COM
amittee, but it is known that MIR.
Byrnes enjoys the confidence OF
the president and it is believed
the president may have sent for
him to get information as to the
political situation in the State.
To inquiries, however, Mr.. Byrnes
answered that the subject of his
conference must be ascertalned
from the president.

was made the British and French
began counterattacks in an endeavor
to wipe out the captured salient and
Tuesday succeeded in completely
nullifying the enemy maneuver.
The Italians are keeping up their
offensive against the Austrians on
various sectors in the mountain re-
gion and along the lower reaches OF
the Piave river. At Capo Sale, near
the Adriatic coast the Italians pene-
trated the enemy lines to a depth OF
more than $50 yards, indicting nu'
merous casualties.

Ten of their machines succeeded II

by German airmen.' Several bombs
were dropped near the hospitals, bu

Locomotive Delivery Starts in July.

Delivery of the first of the 1925
locomotives ordered by the Railroad
administration will start in July, and
deliveries will continue monthly du-
ring the rest of the year. The loco
motives are of six standard types,
with one heavy and one light style
in each type. They vary in weight
from 100000 pounds to $4,000
pounds and the entire order will cost
about s6O,OOO;O00.
The six standard types are expect
ed to eventually supersede the many
kinds now in service, which embrace
engines built according to 500 or
more specifications. According to
the Railroad administration, this is
the first real step ever taken toward
the wide Standardization of locomo-
tives.
An order has also been placed for
100000 freight cars of standard type
to cost between s25O,000,0OO and
$500, 100000. Negotiations for the
construction of many thousand ad-
| ditional steel freight cars are still
pending. The five types of cars or
dered represent the standard forms
of freight cars adopted by the Rail-
road administration.
The adoption of these standard
types, it is believed, will eventually
substitute a few scientifically work
ed out designs for the numerous
miscellaneous varieties of cars, rep
resenting probably more than a
thousand different old styles and
specifications now in use, the accum-
ulations of the past.

Unnecessary Farm Machinery.

Nearly 1000 types and sizes of
farm implements which have been
gradually developed by manufactur-
ers during peace time competition
have been recommended for elimi-
nation during the war by commit
tees of the national implement and
vehicle association. The object, &C
cording to a statement by the coun-
Gil of national defense, is to conserve
materials, labor, capital, and manu-
featuring facilities for war use.
In the report of the committee
meetings to the commercial economy
board of the council of national de-
fense it was stated that no rilachin-
cry recommended for discard was
believed to be necessary to modern
economical agriculture. The lines
considered necessary by the commit
tees consisted of steel and chilled
plows, grain drills, seeders, and 9TH
er tillage implements and farm ele-
| vators.
Such of the recommendations as
| the board deems suitable, with 9th
ers from different sources, are being
brought to the attention of all man
| ufacturers and jobbers, and as many
retail dealers as may be reached
| through questionnaires.

According to the German official
