When the Bank of North Da-
.kota was negotiating a few weeks
ago with eastern bond houses in
the hope of selling $3,0OO,000 of
the bonds issued to finance var
ious experiments in socialism, a
New York correspondent sent out
a dispatch giving the details of
the terms offered by the state
officials to induce the Wall street
bankers to take the bonds.
Among other ridiculous things
which the ToWnley state officials
agreed to do or were willing to
do in order to sell the bonds, was
to keep on deposit in eastern
banks a sum of public money
equal to Or very nearly equal the
amount received for the bonds,
according to the New York flnan-
Cial writer. In other words the
state of North Dakota was to re-
oeive 100000 for the bonds and
pay five per cent interest on that
amount In return the bank Of
North Dakota was to keep a sum
Of money, practically as great as
that received for the bonds, on
deposit in eastern banks and &C.
Cept two per cent interest, there
by sustaining a clear loss of three
per cent per annum on 100000
or as much as they arranged to
sell on the same terms.

In spite Of the fact the Senate has
set its face against the eomplstion
OF the Government housing on the
Union station Plaza here. women
war workers are beginning to oc-
eupy the dormitories. This fact was
brought out today before the House
Committee on Buildings and Grounds.
which is conducting Z hearing on the
Senate resolution to halt work On
housing projects.
About 200 women war workers ara
already housed In three Of the dormi-
tories which have been opened. ac-
cording to the testimony
The war workers in the dormitoriss
sent word to the committee through
one OF their number. Miss Caroline
Webster, that the new accommodaS

with what they have been obliged -

which has already been given OF the
need for the Government housing IN

parent abnormal consumption of gas
was.
81 beg to be excused from answer
ing that question:" he replied, land
II would lay me open to a libel suit"
The commission declared that there
could be no libel in testimony given
before it, and ordered the witness to
answer the query.
Mr.. James was put under stiff
cross-examination by Ensign Colin
Bell. assistant attorney for the Gas
Company. but was mistaken.
In stating the company's side, Ben
s. Minor counsel, said that gas in
Washington compared favorably in
purity, candlepower and British Their
NAL units with that of any other city
of it's size in the country. He admit
ted that the rates charged the pro-
testants appeared abnormal, but said
the company was empowered by law
to charge according to the meter read
ings.
BIames Coal Shortage.
In attempting to Justify the 100
to 200 per cent increase in gas bills
to residents Of Takoma Park and
the northeast section Of Washington,
Mr.. Minor pointed out that In the
last two years there had been an
Increase Of 81 per cent in the amount
OF gas used, and attributed this to
the coal shortage and the return in
November from the daylight saw
ing" plan to normal time.
Mr.. James came back with the
statement that in his family abso-
lutely nc gas is used for lighting.
D. S. Fletcher was chairman of
the delegation and cited complaints,
charging that bills rendered on De-
cember were from 1907 to 400 per
cent higher than normal
]. E FOOte, II59 Fourth street north
east, alleged that his bill for Novem-
Der was $780, while bills had hereto
fore all ranged from $315 to S.S5.

Mr.. James, who is a civil engineer,

which his meter readings for Deem

How a Father Has Learned to
Save Shoe Bills.

My son is very hard on shoes, so
keeping him properly shod has been
quite an expense to me, writes Mr.. ].
Allison Allen, of Amity, Arkansas.
But since started to buy Ne6lin-
soled shoes for him / have found that
il costs only about a third as much to
keep him in shoes"
This is because Ne6lin Soles are so
tough and durable that they wear a
very long time. Shoe bills are kept
down because you don't need so many
pairs.
You can get Ne6lin-soled shoes at
almost any good shoe store. They
come In all styles and for all members
of the family. Ne6lin Soles are also
available everywhere for re-soling.
They are produced by scientific pro-
cess to be what soles ought to be: COM
Portable, waterproof and long-wearing.
They are made by The Goodyear Tire
& Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio, who
also make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed
to outwear any other heels.

Americana street railways seldom
practice the "Zone system
Mr.. Beeler said he saw no good rea-
son why the Washingto0V Virginia
railway, with its city terminus at
Twelfth street and Pennsylvania av-
enue, should not exchange transfers
He said that the cars Of that company
frequently come into and go OUT OF
the city in rush hours without many
passengers. He believed that free
transfers would help the railway sit
uation here to some extent.
Mr.. Freeland. the treasurer of that
company, objected &c transfers on
the ground that the company does
little city business and that too much
city traffic would interfere with
tourist and interstate passengers.
He said also that the revenues OF
the company would be affected and
complications might arise regarding
regulations Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. He also declared
that congestion. would arise.
John ]. Deviny, representing en-
pIoyes OF the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing and Department of Agrt-
culture. submitted the claims OF
about il 500 employees in behalf OF
free transfers at Fourteenth street
and Pennsylvania avenue. and Twelfth
and the Avenue. His forceful talk
appeared to deeply impress sthe com
mission. There were many represen-
tstiYes present from these two big
Government institutions.
Traction PrOspered In 1915.
That the Capital Traction Company
prospered in 1918 is shown in the
business OF the company submitted
in the annual report to the stock
holders.
The total net income for the year
1918 was $8sO.OS9, an increase of $S1,-
$50 over 1917. After paying dividends
of per cent on capital stock and
interest on the funded debt there was
left surplus of $160,0Ss, the largest
for many years.
The gross revenues for the year
were $3.529. S54, an increase of S746.-
316 over the preceding year. Oper-
ating expeDsesh were $2,OS9057, an
increase Of $549,73 over 1917, indi-
eating the great rise in cost Of opera
ton. Taxes were S2S6.090 against
500, TO7, another large increase.
Despite all this increase the com
paDy prOspered. 1t has not called as
strongly as the Washington Railway
and Electric Company for further
revenues, but intlmated in the free

tioa Of Washington decreased and ex-
penses grew heavier. it wanted to be
protected by the Utilities Commission
in additional revenues, IL necessary.
All the old officers and directors
OF the company were reelected, head
ed by George Hamilton as president.

flag over the Hotel Adlon, was badly
wounded during the street fighting,
according to a personal message re-
ceived from him by the United Press
bureau here today.
Graudenz said he had a badly
damaged foot" as the result Of being
struck by fragments of a hand
grenade which exploded near a teIe-
graph office, where he had gone TO
file some dispatches. He explained,
however, that he was "too busy to
go to a hospital.
LONDON, Jan. 9.-An American
general, according to a dispatch, con-
sented to hoist the American flag
over the Adlon Hotel as a protection
for allied refugees, but pulled It
down again when a mob threatened
TO storm the building.
(The American officer was General
Harries, head of the American mis-
sion, it was learned through a United
Press dispatch yesterday, which de-.
scribed this incident in detail)
