Kruttschnitt Tsiaks Some War
Time Reforms Should Con-

Washington, Jan 22-Use of wa
ter routes to relieve crowded rail-
road lines, consolidation of ticket
offices, unifieation Of terminals and
pooling Of repair shops were among
the wartime reforms instituted by
the railroad administration Endorsed
as worthy Of continuation by julius
Krhttschnitt. chairman of the South
ern Pacific, in testimony today be-
fore the senate interstate commerce
committee. Mr.. Kruttschnitt was
the first Of several prominent rail-
road officials. whom the committee
plans to hear
Standardization Of equipment for
all railroads under federal control,
proposed by the railroad administra-
ton, was said by Mr.. Kruttschnitt,
to be inadvisable.
The short routing Of traffic, Mr.
Kruttschntt said, had not resulted
in as large benefits as had been
claimed.
THE benefit for this practice,
which deprives the shipper of choice
of routes and competitive facilities
and service, is very much exagger-
ated," he said. The director gem
eral says that during a year Of fed
eral control l68l3,633 car miles have
been saved in the eastern and north
western regions alone, which Is only
two-tenths Of one per cent of the
total freight car miles run in these
regions. In recommending the elm
nation of eircuitous routes, the in
tkfests and convenience of the pub
lie served by them do not seem to
have been considered"
In summarizing the attitude Of the
railroad executives toward railroad
legislation, Mr.. Kruttschnitt said
"Profiting BY experience acquired
under both, private and government
operation, the carriers earnestly de-
sire TO provide better system Of
operation by combining the initiative
and beneficial features Of competi-
ton inherent in private ownership

Lithuanian Premier

left Libau because of the bolshevik
invasion of Lithuania and on Mon.
day reached the Danish island Of
Bornhom, in the Baltic, when they
proceeded here.
Premier Ullmann said that the
bolsheviki were not yet masters OF
L;bau and that the provisional Ii
Lithuanian government still had its
headquarters there. The bolsheyik
forces, however, were only q few
days distant. Whether the town
could be held against them depended
upon the help which the Lithuanians
could get abroad, and whether the
German soldiers in Libau would
fight the bolsheviki.
"We need arms, ammunition and
troops" Premier Ullmann added.

AlkaIi In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very careful
ly, if you want to keep your hair
looking its best. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too
much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless) and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply. moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
whicA rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt. dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy, it's verv cheap,
and q few ounces will supply every

Look years youngsrl Use Grand.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its
natural color dates back to grand
mothers time. She used it to keep
her hair beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked APP
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy
and out-of-date. Nowadays. by ask
ing at any drug store for bottle
Of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous
Did preparation, improved BY the
addition of other Ingredients, which
can be depended upon to restore
natural color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply damp-
en- a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair,
taking one strand at time. BY
morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or
two, it becomes beautifully dark and
glossy.-Adv.
