les would not be thrown into bank
ruptcy, as has been feared.
Mr.. Hines went into detail to ex-
plain that he believed the courts and
the interstate commerce commission
would uphold the present level OF
rates, and that the railroads were I'M
duly alarmed over prospects OF fnan-
cial disaster in case their properties
were returned soon to private man
agement.
Advising more deliberation in dis
cussing the railroad question. Mr..
Hines said:
NJ think It is fair prediction that
bceore any legislation can actually be
shaped there will be strong reasser-
ton of the permanent views of that
part CT the public which insists on a
greater degree Of social control Of the
railroads and that this re-assertion OF
tho views now temporarily in the back.
ground is going to defeat the adoption
of any permanent program in the next
two years.
IF this shall be the case the result
will be that the end CT the 81 months
period will approach and that there
will be an cutlery for an extension OF
tine and in all probability the time
will then have to be extended"
Defends Employees.
At present, said Mr.. Hines, the un.
fair inference is persistently drawn
that the heavy operating costs are
necessarily due to increased rates OF
wages; where as. they are largely
due to war conditions and the position
CT labor in this matter should not be
prcjudiccd by forcing a conclusion be-
fore there is time to see the results

of increase in wages under peace con-
ditions. Since last year was under
abnormal war conditions. this year in
wolves readjustment. and normal con
ditions will not be until next year, ne
declared, and will be the middle OF
1921 before fair view OF government
operation can be obtained.
No plans before the committee
meet the fundamental necessities OF a
permanent solution, said the direc'
tor general Those already proposed
he declared, would perpetuate existing
railroad capitalizations which he be-
lieves were the cause OF deep-seated
suspicion on the part OF the public
and labor, and which must be cor
rected before any permanent solution
can be had.
The present plans, he asserted. in
clude all existing railroad companies,
both those which thrive on low rates
and those which fail on high rates,
thus putting the public to a disadvan.
tage through paying too much and
getting inadequate service.
A permanent solution, Mr.. Hines
said, should give the government and
perhaps labor, participation in excess
profits OF some companies under
standard rates. Plans hereafter pro-
posed were based on the theory that
railroads should receive a reasonable
return. no more and no less, but in
actual results, he believed the return
would be inexact and widely fluc-
tuating. Failure of the pending plans
to meet these fundamentals, said Mr..
Hines. will tend to prevent their re-

not solve the question satisfactorily

ten and primary grades is almost en-.
tirely different from the method used
a few years ago. No longer do you
send your sensitive little children to
the public school kindergartens to
find they are unhappy because of a
tiresome and unchildlike routine gone
through behind the school house walls.
There does not seem to be kinder
garten in this city which is not an in.
teresting place to the children who at
tend it and one that they desire to go
to rather than avoid. Children go to
kindergarten nowadays to play and
they come out knowing great deal
more than the people who are not
their fathers and mothers think chill
dren can know.
A few years ago some people hest
tated in sending their children to
school at the age of five years, and
many parents were wary of kinder
garten debut at six years, but 1t
seems that the children themselves
come to the front now and demand
that they be sent where the other chill
!dren go. and where everybody has so
much fun. AS a proof of this kinder
garten teachers in Richmond report
well filled classes, and very few tru-
ants, unless illness is the cause.
Some kintergartens are said to be
|overcrowded and increased amount OF
supplies will have to be obtained for
some buildings, it is thought.
Pleasure Impression Only
The new kindergarten plan "calcu-
lated to give the impression of plea
sure only" is not used in every city
of the United States and Richmond
has been complimented by child edu.
Gators on her adoption Of the most
modern, and efficient plan yet discov-
cred. The grown-ups of this city who
perhaps have gone to kindergarten,
and who have not visited the ones
where their children are now corraled,
in their first step toward education,
have big surprise in store for them.
If they take hint from the children
and visit Richmond's kindergartens
they will see bright CHEEKY school
rooms with all idea of school taken
away by colored pictures, toys, and
low comfortable chairs and tables,
and their children's playmate, the
teacher, who has to be a clever person
to carry out efficiently the modern
kindergarten methods.
To find out what is done at kinder
garren, II is necessary 10 camp on the
ground for the same things never
happen at the same time, and the
teachers explain that they are not in
tended to in the present efficiency
campaign. The kindergarten day
opens when the school does at $3.50
O'Clock, five mornings a week. The
force method is not used or needed in
most cases to "get the children down
to work." They arrive on time, be-
canse everyone else does, and go to
work singly or in groups. When the
teacher arrives she usually finds work
in various forms and stages already
started by the earliest arrivals.
With the mornings work merely d.
rected in a highly camoufaged fashion
the children suggest what shall be
done whether story shall be read or
told; and whether they march, gallop.
walk or step high for exercise. For

Dramatization Done.
Large type, large blocks, and large
ideas are the ideal, it is said. Former

to be much more efficient and buch

be required to vote In their session

FORD TOOK THEM

BRING THEM BACK

The following appeared a few days
ago in the state Register" of Spring
field, H.;
Many are the stories of Henry Ford
and his popular automobile, but Hills
boro is relating what ii calls the best
of the season, and the facts in the
case are true. 1t happened in one Of
the leading churches of the city that
the pastor took for the text Of his
sermon, Better Church Attendance
The pastor held that the automobile
has taken more people away from
church than any other thing. He con,
cluded with the exclamation: The Ford
car has taken more people to hell than
any other thing that l can mention!
Whereupon an Old lady in the consre.
cation began to clap her hands ana
moan Praise the Lord. Praise the
Lord! Praise the Lord.
Whats the matter sister," asked the
pastor.
The Ford never went any place that
it couldn't make the round trip, and /
am sure that all of those people in he'll
will be back" she answered. SO praise

Should | increase the air pressure in
my tires in winter?'' Tire air pressure
should remain the same winter and
summer This is the advise of Philley
& Gill TO local motorists who are in
doubt as to the proper imitation to main
tain during the cold winter months.
Many car owners labor under a false
impression regarding the tire pressure.
Regardless OF the season of the year il
is impossible TO increase the pressure
in pneumatic tires sufficiently to in
any way injure them. Tires should
not be pumped up harder in the winter
months. Likewise pressures should not
be pumped up harder in the winter
months. Likewise pressures should not
be rduced in summer because decreas-
es cause the tire 10 bend more create
more friction and naturally to generate
heat.
Motorists are inclined to make a com
plicat ted matter of imitation. While too
little pressure is extremely important

PUSHING WORK
] ON MECCA ROAD

Work is to be pushed on the desert
portions of the Brawley-Indio highway
according to Engineer Patch and Divis-
ion Engineer Cortelyou of the state
highway commission. who have been in
the Valley during the past week on of.
fetal business.
The camp has been moved north
from Kane Springs, and is now located
in the clay hills several miles north,
where the laying of concrete has begun.
Some grading was done in this section
several months ago so that the con-
crete layers have considerable working
space behind the crew of graders. Wat.
er for the concrete is being pumped
from the San Felipe river. The new
road bed will be the standard 15-foot
instead of the eight foot narrow gauge
previously laid on the road.
Bids have been called for to continue
the pavement from the end of the pave
ment in Riverside county to the Inper.
ial' county line and south to Tule
Wash. The commission plans to con.
struct the road between Tule Wash and
the unfinished pavement north of Kane
Springs by force account, this being
the work now under way
1t is reported that Chairman Darl-
ington of the commission has agreed
to the construction of the concrete
highway across the desert stretch in
Riverside county which has held up
traffic by that route to Los Angeles in
the past. 1t is asserted that if the
Mountain Springs grade is under con-
struction next summer, passage to the
coast that way will be difficult unless
the Brawley.Indio road is opened in
the meanwhile.
