MAY Hold CONTROL
OF K. C..TEX. RAILWAY
Under Private Ownership Road
Would Fail, Officials Told.

Assurances were obtained by a
delegation of prominent Texans
here yesterday that the Railroad
Administration will probably not re-
linquish control over the Kansas
City, Mexico & Orient Railroad as
had been planned. The success of
the arguments made in favor of
continued government control over
the line was attributed to the in
fiuence of Zach Lamar Cobb, who
served under Secretary McAdoo as
Collector of Customs at Ell Paso un-
til recently.
The Kansas City, Mexico & Orient
extends from Kansas City to Alpine,
Texas. The line was in the hands
of a receiver at the time the gov
ernment assumed authority over the
railroads of the country. The Rail-
road Administration officials were
told that to place the road back un-
der private control would mean that
it must cease to operate.
Such situation, it was declared.
would deprive the residents of a
section of territory in Texas, equal
in size to the State of Illinois, of
any railroad facilities whatever.
About seventy-five Texans came
here on Monday to support the ap-
peal to the Railroad Administration.
Among those who still remain are
Mayor Bird, of San Angelo. and
Mayor Rooney. of Fort. Stockton.
Texas, and Zack Cobb, who is a cam
didate for Congress from the Sly
teenth Texas District.

clares that it figures that a total of

GARABED MUST
TELL AT ONCE
ENERGY FACTS
Armenian Inventor Asked
by Lane to Give Final
Results.

Garabed T. X. Garagossian has
been given a final opportunity to
make good on his professed dis
covery of a principle" that would
make the production of energy
constant and unlimited. A letter
went from the Department Of In
terror to the Armenian inventor
last night. calling upon him with
out further delay to advise Secre-
tary Lane what progress has been
made in the tests of his machine"
and what he is prepared to do fur
ther at once.
The letter makes it plain that
Garagossian must make a definite
reply. The tests have been put of
from time to time for various
reasons, all OF which have been
met by the department, and it now
has been decided to require the in
ventor to show his hand
The inventor is informed in the
letter that the department has
written him repeatedly, without
success, and that it is not willing
to continue the indefinite wait.
Some definite report must be sub
mitted
1t was oficially denied at the de-
partment last night that yesterday
marked the expiration of the time
set for Garagossian to make good
The act OF Congress giving him a
special grant of protection for his
discovery" established no time, it
was stated. Neither has Secretary
Lane, whom Congress authorized to
supervise the tests. set a final date.

PUBLISHERS ATTACK
POST Zone system
New York Magazine Owners Ask
Repeal of Law.

The postal zone system was at
tackled yesterday. as creating
eight Mason and Dixon lines"
within the country. in a hearing of
periodical publishers before the
New York State Congressional del
egation. 1t was described as the
most effective means possible of
preventing the free flow of infor-
nation and knowledge.
The repeal of the law was re-
quested before it goes into effect
the last of June.
John Adams Thayer, speaking for
the Periodical Publishers Associa-
ton. said of the zone system:
TT will put many small maga-
zines out of business.
TT will make magazines more
costly to the man far from the
great publishing centers than to
the man in them.
TT will denationalize the coun-
try.
1T will defeat its own purpose
creating new revenue.
TT will result in increasing sub
scription rates of magazines which
do survive.
TT will stihe the great publicity
machine which has so generously
supported the governments war
policies. Never in the time of the
nation was there as great a need
for a united and far-circulating
press"
Members of the Congressional
delegation asked IL it were true
that magazines were carried at a
loss to the postofice. 1t was re-
piled that. far from this being true.
they were carried at a profit. since
they took up the slack in postal
work.
