"the effect would be something like
this: Congress, not having made up its
mind as to the proper method of regu-
lating the railroads, hereby takes con-
troll of the roads for period of five
years of experimentation in order that
Congress may determine the proper
system of regulation"
"You have not stated it exactly
right" observed Senator Pomerene, of
Ohio. "rhe proposition is to extend the
period of experimentation to five years
at the end of which period Congress
would begin to make up it's mind as to
the proper system of regulation
II accept the amendment" said the
witness.
Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Clark, in answer to a query whether
interstate rates would continue in eff
feet after Federal control ceased, said
that the commission had passed upon
this matter, and had decided that the
McAdoo interstate rates would hold
after government control ceased in the
absence of any outstanding order by
the commission that would conflict.
Asked pointblank by Senator Watson
as to whether the railroad executives
preferred to have the roads back on
March q, 1919, rather than continue
government control for five years, Mr..
Thorn said they would prefer their re-
turn March 4.

Church Of Messiah TO
Remain Unitarian

A mlsapprehension current that the
Church of the Messiah, Thirty fourth
Street and Park Avenue, will immedi-
ately sever connections with the Uni
tartan denomination, was corrected
yesterday by the Rev John Haynes
Holmes, pastor of the church, who said
that several reforms would be intro
duced, but that no breaking of rcla-
tions between the church and the
whole Unitarian organization would
take place IN the immediate future.
"My suggestion that the Church Of
Messiah leave the Unitarian Church."
said Mr.. Holmes, twas not made as any
definite demand. | intended it only as
the planting of seed. Within years
perhaps this may come to pass. But
certainly we are not ready for that
now. Certain members Of the congre-
cation now would be very much op-
posed to it. The conclusion, which
took me possibly ten years to reach,
cannot be acted on in ten minutes"
Mr.. Holmes said that certain reforms
were contemplated designed to make
membership in the church somewhat
like membership in such an organza-
tion as the Red Cross, a membership,
he said which dedicates itself to the he,
service of mankind. which is open and
which every one, Jew or Gentle, can
accept.
According to Mr.. Holmes, some of
the reforms considered were making
all pews in the church free, of chang
ing the name of the church to one
which might have a more universal APP
peal. Among the names suggested
We're: "The Church of the People"
the "City Church." the Free Fellow
ship" and the "Church of the New
Democracy"
Reorganizing the membership of the
church was the last of the reforms
suggested, and committee was ap-
pointed at the meeting to investigate
the subject and report on it.
DIR. Holmes was asked recently to
become pastor of the Abraham Lincoln
Centre in Chicago. When he declined
the offer and expressed his idea of
severing his connection with Unitar-
lans, it was understood that he meant
that the Church of the Messiah was
about to leave the Unitarian body.

Hylan Scores Labor for
Criticism of His Actions
Denunciation of Use of Police
on Ferries During Strike Hurt
Unions. He Saws

In the role of "a member of labor
union in good standing" Mayor Hylan
last night send four-page letter to
Ernest Bohm, corresponding secretary
CT the Central Federated Union, up
braiding him for condemning, on be-
half OF organized labor in greater New
u ork, the action of the city auth critics
IN manning the ferryboats with police
men during the harbor strike.
"The action taken by Mr. Maher and
tls associates" wrote the Mayor. re-
terring to the vice-president of the
Marine Workers. Affiliation, with
respect to the municipal ferries and
the people of Staten Island, and the
unlawful attitude in defence of that
action, are going to do immense harm to
the cause of labor and the municipal
ownership and operation of public util-
titles.
Many man who ordinarily would
lavor municipal ownership is going to
hesitate if he is made to feel that be-
cause OF dispute between a private
employer and private employee, not
related in any way to public service.

Bethlehem Steel
Assails Power of
War Labor Board
Says Now That Battles Have
Ended Awards to Workers
Cannot Be Enforced; En-
ployes, Unpaid, Complain

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The au-
thority of the National War Labor
Board to enforce its DEGREES, now that
hostlllties have ceased, was challenged
to-day by counsel for the Bethlehem
steel Company, who have been asked
to appear to answer complaints that
awards made by the board during the
war had not been carried out.
Joint Chairman Taft, of the board.
questioned the good faith of the COM
pany and said its present attitude
"colors the whole situation with a
sense of injustice which makes one
yearn for judicial power to compel
compliance" He added that the board
cid not have this power, but would
meet Saturday with employees repre-
sentatives to determine what there is
possible TO be done in this situation"
Representatives of machinists and
electricians employed by the Bethlehem
company complained that awards Of
back pay were not carried out and that
men who complained through the plant
committees established by the board
were discharged
Our position is that the award does
not apply to-day" said Guy Currier,
o., Of Boston, attorney for the company,
though during the war we were pre-
pared to accept anything the board
recommended. We don't feel now that
this board can go on adjusting griev-
ances between employees and manage
ments of industrial plants"
Chairman Taft read letter which
the board received last September from
3. G. Grace, president of the Bethle-
hem company, who expressed willing
ness to enforce the award and allow
the men to organize committees. He
said, however, that the payment of
back wages under the Increases would
be contingent upon the readiness of
the War and Navy departments to in
crease the payments to the company
for the production of munitions.
"Now, doesn't the Bethlehem COM
pany intend to show any good faith
with the board ?" Mr.. Taft demanded
"You entered into the agreement in
this letter to enforce the award
don't consider that your present atti7
tude shows good faith. You intend to
tlout what has been done"
Attorney Currier objected to the con-
struction placed upon the action of the
company by Mr.. Taft.

France Would Buy
100000 Tons of
Shi ps From Allies
Navy League Asks Wilson
to Use Influence to Aid
Reconstruction of War
Riddlcd Merchant Marine

PARIS, Jan. 15.-Thc French Navy
League has appealed to President Will
son to use his influence to enable
France to buy 100000 tons of mer
chant shipping from England and
America and to have allotted to her
nearly 100000 tons of German and
Austrian shipping to replace her losses
during the war.
The league represents the principal
French shipping companies and fedora
tlons OF operatives, including sea cap
talns, pilots and wireless operators.
and it speaks authoritatively for the
entire mercantile shipping and Ship
building industries.
In their appeal to Mr.. Wilson the
league points out that France in her
fight for the liberty of the world, has
lost 40 per cent of her tonnage and
thousands of her best seamen. All
her shipyards have been devoted to
producing war material to such an
extent that she has been unable to re-
place her shipping losses by new con-
struction.
Since the war began French imports
nave fallen from eighteen million tons
a year to one million, and France now
IS dependent for overseas transport on
the Allies and neutrals. France calls
upon Mr.. Wilson to restore indepen-
dence on the seas to her in view of
the fact that she sacrificed the com
mon cause not only her prosperity and
chances of economic restoration. but
all her liberty, "for the nation which
IS unable to communicate freely with
the rest OF the world is no lonpor a
free nation"
France had under construction at
the end of September $4,000 tons Of
shipping, compared with II 900 tons in
Spain; 1900 in Norway; $4,000 in
Sweden; $4,000 in Italy; 2O4, 900 in
Holland; 100000 in Japan; 1000 900
IN Great Britain, and 3,5OO,OOO in the
United States.
Even if the French shipyards, the
appeal continues, which constructed
loo'ooo TONS IN the year before the
war, Va could increase their output to
o0o,000 tons, eight or ten wears must
elapse before France would possess tho
merchant marine she REQUIRES and
during that time other nations who
nave not suffered to the extent France
mas from the war would have monon-
oiized tae worlds shipping and
rench seaman would have souobt
ether means of getting their livelihood
AS means of enabling France to re-
construct her merchant fleet the league
places before President Wilson the
following proposals.:
First, that 100000 tons of German
and Austro- Hungarian shipping be- be-
allotted to France to replace ton for
ton her losses during the war. Sec
ondly, German coal should be placed
at the disposal of the French metal
ISraef Iurg,cal INDUSTRY at prices enabling
French shipbuilders to construct af
the same cost as foreign shipbuilders
Thirdly, that French shipowncrs hn
enabled to buy Immediately 1000 600
tons tons of British-built ships and 1000
0oo tons of American built ships
Fourth, that American shipyards be
opened to French shipowners to enable
Immediate construction of 2OOo ooo
tons of cargo steamers and their trans
fer to the French flag.

Smith Seeks to Abolish
Drug Control Bureau
Governor Believes Work Can
Be Done by the State
Health Department
Stof Corraspondcnce


ALBANY, Jan. Ex-Governor Smith
to-day asked the Legislature to abolish
the Bureau of Narcotic Drug Control.
He said that, although he was in SYM
pathy with its purpose, he felt its du-
ties could well be performed by the
State Health Department.
DR.. Herman NJ. Biggs, a Democratic
holdover from the Glynn administra-
ton, is head of the Health Department
and would have charge of the carrying
out of any state narcotic control acts if
the Governors recommendation is car
ried out.
The Bureau of Narcotic Drug Control
was created as the result of an investi-
cation into the drug evi, by commit
tee headed by ex-senator George II.
Whitney, of Saratoga.

Federal Control of
All Utilities Urged
ByLabor Federation

WASHINGTON, Jan. Is. Federal
ownership, operation or regulation of
public and semi-public utilities was rec
commended in the report of the COM
mittee on reconstruction of the Amer-
can Federation of Labor, made public
to-day after its approval by the Fed
eration's executive council. Govern
ment ownership of all wharves and
docks, Federal legislation to prevent
child labor and equality in pay for
men and women workers also were
urged.
The committee opposed the forma-
ton of labor political party on the
ground that "the disastrous experience
OF organized labor in America with
political parties of its own amply JUS
tilted the American Federation of La
boris non-partisan political policy"
Other recommendations by the COM
mittee we're:
Legislation making interference with
the rights of employees to organize or
any attempt to interfere with the legit-
innate activities Of trade unions Grim
inal offence.
Maximum working day of eight
hours, with overtime prohibited except
under extraordinary emergencies, and
the weeks working time limited to five
and one-half days.
Limitation of tasks of working
women to those which they are phys
ically capable of performing.
Provision for referendum on acts
of Congress or state legislatures held
unconstitutional by the Supreme Court
Legislation taxing all usable lands
above the acreage which is actually
cultivated by the owners, and giving
aid in the allotment lands for home
building on the public domain
Legislation limiting and defining the
powers of corporations and extension
of Federal control of corporations to
supervision of capital stock increases
and incurring of bonded indebtedness,
with provision that corporation books
be open to Federal inspection.
Removal of all restrictions on "free
speech" individuals and groups to be
held responsible for their utterances.
Extension of workmen's compensa-
tion laws to provide more adequately
for those incapacitated by industrial
accidents and disease, and state insur-
ance to supplant employers liability
insurance.
Amendments to the immigration laws
to restrict immigration to the capacity
of the United States to "assimilate
and Americanize" foreigners and to
completely restrict it for at least two
years after the signing of the peace
treaty and at any future time when
an abnormal degree of unemployment
! exists.

result in virtual government syndi-
cate, formed to carry on trade rela-
tions with other countries is by no
means so vague as it might SEEM"
The conference here was attended by
members of the foreign consulates, as
we'll as by Secretary Redtield and other
members of the Department of Com
merce. 1t took place at the office of the
Foreign Relations Council, 165 Broad

Included in the membership of the
council are representatives of virtually

stitution," said Mr.. Hirst. regard the
radicalism of the dry movement as a
menace, and as such the great brewing
and hotel interests will oppose it in
every proper way.
an talking to-day with an eminent
lawyer he made the suggestion the rati-
fication Of the prohibition ,amendmen mt
would instantly create millions of vio-
lators and evaders of the law and as
many more hypocrites. A Caucasian
people cannot be expected to do with
out their beer and wine, and they will
not do without them so long as nature
gives them the materials out of which
they may be made and shows man how
TO turn those materials into wine and
beer.
Violation of Principles
"1n the opinion of great many law
yers the national prohibition amend
ment is such violation of the funda-
mental principles on which this gov
ernment was founded as to make it un-
constitutional. Its adoption would not
only irrevocably bind ratifying states,
but would force prohibition forever
upon non-ratifying states, because once
made part of the Constitution its re-
peal could be prevented by thirteen
Oul W tHc 1OI y-ClRnI STATES.
"There are thirteen prohibition
states with a total population of s.
097624, Of which the total number of
members in the upper houses of their
Legislatures is $50. One half, Or 1865
Of these, could block any move to
amend prohibition out of the Consti-
tuition once it was in.

brewing and distilling business. as of
June 80, 1917, was approximately ST.

bursement of S453 ,S72 ,553"
Rolin @. Everhart, associate of
William II. Anderson, state superin-
tendent of the anti Saloon League, said
last night that the nation probably
would ratify the dry amendment in a
few days.
at looks to the drys as if the entire
ratification matter will have been
finished up before January 25,' he said,
"whethcr New York and Pennsylvania
swing into the dry line or not, but it
will be an unhappy denouement for
the Republican party, nationally, if
these two great Republican states are
not included in this almost unanimous
national action"

have been granted to other employees
than the trainmen.
The wage demands of the trainmen's
brotherhoods are now before Director
General Hines for action. and it has
been estimated that these demands, if
granted. would add S200.000,000 more
TO the 100000, 200 wage increases al
ready granted.
1t is understood that the Senate
Interstate Commerce Commission Will
ask the Director General for more de-
tailed figures of the results of govern
ment operation in 1918. and Mr.. Hines
will probably appear before the COM
mittec next week
