GOVERNMENT MAY
CONTROL EXPRESS

Washington, Jan. 13.-Action on
federal control of the express COM
paries and telephone and telegraph
system has been sidetracked pending
a thorough solution of the railroad
problem
Two reasons are assigned for post
ponement. The first is that the rail-
road problem ia much more vital than
either of the others; the second that
once the railroad situation is straight
ened out the others will be easy OF
solution. Consequently, according to
members OF the senate and house to-
cay. nothing has been done on either
side of congress looking toward con-
trel of any public utilities other than
the railroads.
Committees that will eventually
handle the express companies and
telephone and telegraph lines have
not held preliminary meetings. Moth
Inc has been done with Postmaster
General Burieson's recommendation
Of public ownership of telegraph and
telephone facilities.
Several prominent express company
directors have been in Wa shington
for the last several DAVIS seeking an
Early decision. Meanwhile reports
from New YORK show exprcss com
nanies stocks advancing IN anticipa-
ton OF government control. this be-
ing especially true In the case OF
a da rus and Wells-Fargo shares.
There are go few EXPRESS cornoa MES.
II was pointed out at the Capitol to-
y.av. and their business In so small
compared with thet If the railroads.
that disposition Of their business can
sa fely be postponed for the time be-
/ ing.
In the caae OF the telephone and
telegraph lines thev too, are inter
woven with the railroad situation.
Goth classes OF service in many parts
OF tho country are basel on railroad
wires, and like the express compani"si
these systems will be comparatively
easv to handle
1t Is understood at the Canitol that
the great corporations controlling teie-
! phone and telegraph lines will not
make any strong resistance TO gov
ernment control for the war period
