PROLONG FEDERAL
CONTROL OF ROADS
Director General Pines Says
Administration Will Seek
Private Loans.
FINANCE LINES SEPARATELY
Each System VIII Be Called on to
Borrow the Funds for Their
Own Needs.

Washington, March 6.-The govern
ment today determined to retain con-
troll of the railroads despite failure
of congress to provide funds for the
railroad administration and to have
the roads finance themselves for the
next few months through private
loans on the open market or through
advances by the war finance corpor-
alton.
Effort will be made to maintain OPP
erations on a normal scale and to
carry on as much of the improvement
program as possible, in order to avoid
throwing employees out of work or
otherwise disturbing industrial condi-
tons. No attempt will be made to
solve the problem by raising rates.
These assurances were given by Di-
rector General Hines in a pubic state
ment and in an address to the confer
ence of governors and mayors meet
ing here. It developed that the war
finance corporation has about $751;
100000 resources available, and much
Of this may go to railroads to supple
ment the sums they can borrow until
congress meets again and has oppOr-
tunity to appropriate funds.
Fear Effect on U. S. Bonds.
After protracted conferences be-
tween Secretary Glass and other of
ficiaIs Of the treasury and war fl
nance corporation, it was stated that
means probably would be developed
to keep the railroads off the money
market as much as possible, and min
imize interference with the forthcom-
ing Victory Liberty Loan.
Although officials appeared optimis-
tic, they explained that much manipu-
lating of financial machinery would
be necessary, and a definite program
could not be developed for some time.
Their somewhat cheerful attitude was
in contrast to the rather pessimistic
utterances of Secretary Glass and Di-
rector General Hines before the SEN
ate appropriations committee in exec
utive session last week, commenting
on the possibility of the appropria-
tons failure. The testimony was
made public today.
Must Cut Expenses.
There would be two general ways
in which we might attempt to adapt
ourselves to this new situation so sud-
denly created said Mr.. Hines today,
addressing the conference of govern
ors and mayors. Zone way would be
to cut down expenditures as rapidly
as possible in every direction, even
though these expenditures were high
ly desirable"

The indeterminate franchise bill by
Senator Satterthwaite also was recon-

ment of the cites in which it operates

Kansas the house committee on state

for state flag, and told the legis-

was a large blue flag with sunflower
In the center. Another was the stars

states seal on the field. The third
was the Greek cress on a blue field

A bill providing for the repeal of the
Kansas tax rebate law, which is OPP
posed by the United States Railroad
Administration, was recommended for
passage by the senate sitting in COM
mittee of the whole today. The meas
ure is a substitute for a bill which
had been passed by the house.
When introduced, the bill brought
an appeal from w. R. Smith, solicitor
of the Santa Fe, who urged members
of the senate in behalf of the railroad
administration to delay action for two
years.
The tax rebate bill changes the pres
ent system, which calls for payment of
taxes in December and June, with a
per cent rebate on the last half if paid
in December instead Of waiting for
June. The amendment proposed would
require the payment OF taxes in De-
cember and June, but the rebate is
abolished. In the event the tax re-
mains unpaid after June 20, a per
cent penalty is provided.
In addition the senate recommend
ed for passage the Carroll bill, which
provides that the state take over the
fire insurance rating bureau business,
now operated by private concern.

The Tax and Road Measures
Will be Submitted to the
People for Vote.
PUSH THE FARM TENANT PLAN
Senators viii Attempt to Force Repre-
sentatiVes to Accept Allen Plan
May Be Successful.

Two constitutional amendments
were ordered submitted to the people
OF Kansas at the next election by the
house OF representatives the other
day. One would authorize the legis-
lature to classify property for taxa
ton and the ether would give the
state limited authority to aid in good
roads improvement work.
The taxation amendment had only
two votes against it, that of Caldwell
OF Ottawa and Neiswenger Of Shaw
nee. The good roads amendment had
only six votes against it, Beard of
Sedgwick, Cox of Butler, Geddes of
Butler, Iddings OF Logan, Speaker
Lambertson and Railsback of De-
catur.
There was no debate on either reso-
luton on the final roll call, as both
resolutions had been threshed out in
the committee of the whole and
whipped into such shape that most Of
the members could vote for them.
The taxation amendment had 107 for
and two against, and the good roads
amendment had 105 for to against.
The constitutional convention may
not show its head again the in the
Kansas Legislature. But the senate
is going to try to force the house to
submit to the people a farm tenant
plan urged by Governor Allen. This
is the scheme started by several sena-
tors who have been insistent fighters
against the constitutional convention,
but who are willing to give the gov
ernor the three constitutional changes
he particularly has urged.
Several members OF the senate jul
dietary committee are at work and
proposition similar to that killed by
the house, but varying slightly in the
terms. The resolution is expected to
come from the committee early next
week and to be given precedence over
other legislation. An effort will be
made to get it adopted by the senate
at once and then rush it through the
house, even though that body has
killed a proposed amendment to the
same purpose. A change of half a
dozen votes in the house would &C.
complish the submission of the reso-
luton to the people and there are
senators who are lining up their
house members to change their stand
if the senate votes to submit the farm
tenant plan, the good roads and the
taxation amendments, these being the
three the governor is most insistent
upon.
