Following that in quick succession
he was made assistant attorney, and
then in 1901 became first vice-presi-
dent of the Louisville and Nashville.

ant to the director-general. After so
days he was made assistant director.

tive participation of the railroads

BIG RELIEF BILL
PASSED BY HOUSE
Acts Upon Wilson's Renewed
Request For Speed
TO BE HURRIED IN SENATE
Warning Given That Delay In Pas
sage or Measure Might Jeopar-
die Progress OF The Peace
Negotiations.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Of $780,
100000 for famine relief in Europe
outside Of Germany was approved by
the House, which passed the admin
istration measure after its enactment
had been urged anew by President
Wilson as the only effective means of
combating the westward spread OF
Bolshevism. The bill now goes to
the Senate, where its early passage is
planned.
Party lines were effaeed in the
House debate and vote, and despite
energetic demands by opponents Of
the bill for more specific information
regarding the proposed expenditure.
and criticism Of the President, Her
bert c. Hoover and Vance Mccormick,
chairman of the War Trade Board,
special rule reported by the Rules
Committee was adopted and afterward
the bill was passed 24O TO 7S,
The only amendment accepted was
one by Representative Sherley, in
charge OF the measure, which permits
use of part of the fund for relief in
countries contiguous to Europe This
would make it possible to aid the Ar
menians and other suffering peoples
in the Near East.
President Wilson's urgent appeal
that the appropriation be authorized
to aid in the consummation of peace
was sent to Senator Martin and Rep
resentative Sherley, chairman OF the
congressional appropriations commit
tee, and was read on the floor of the
House by Mr. Sherley. 1t was supple
mented by a report to the State De-
partment from Henry D. White. Re
publican member of the American
peace delegation. Both messages said
the problem Of supplying food to the
distressed peoples recently liberated
from the rule OF the Central Powers
was one of paramount importance in
obtaining a return to normal condi-
tons.
Food relief is now the key to the
whole European situation and to the
solution of peace" Mr.. Wilson said
"Bolshevism is steadily spreading
westward. It cannot be stopped by
force, but 1t can be stopped by food"

road Administrator will in no wise
be changed, Walker D. Hines, the new
Director-General. whose appointment
by President Wilson as successor to
McAdoo, to take effect Immediately.
was oabled to Secretary McAdoo at
Los Angeles and announced by him,
stated later In his first newspaper con.
ference here. Mr., Hines said he
strongly favored McAdoo's plan for
fve-year Government control Of the
roads
He expects to lay his case before
Congress at an early date. How Wig.
orously he would press his views was
not intimated, but it was understood
other sources that the plan will be
urged on Congress continuously.
The indeterminate period Of control,
under which the roads are now op-
Grating, was held by Hines to be dan
gerous and likely to disrupt the or
ganization which McAdoo built up.
"A square deal for labor, cordial
recognition Of its partnership IN the
Railroad Administration, fair treat
ment for the owners of railroad prop
erty and fidelity to the public inter
ests" is the slogan which Hines says
he has adopted.
MeAdoo Makes Statement.
Los Angeles. Cal.-Following his an.
nouncement of the appointment OF
Hines as Director-General Of Railroads
here, McAdoo issued the following
statement;
"Mr. Hnies has been my assistant at
Washington since the beginning of
Government control and has thor
ough knowledge of organization and
administration of the railroads under
Federal control as well as the funda-
mental problems involved jh-the rail-
road situation. His ability and expert
ence admirably fit1him for the great
trust and responsibility with which the
President has h6nored him."
