which became famous as "the Ten Com
mandments" of Federal control, instruct
ing them how to handle the situation.
The result was that in a brief time the
congestion was relieved and ultimately
entirely eliminated.
To prevent overcrowding of seaport
terminals, Director Smith inaugurated q
practice which was a reversal of pre-
vious shipping methods in the form of a
"pcrmt system" that gave absolute CEN
trail control and stopped abuses.
When coal shortage threatened Man.
haitian and the coal barges were locked
in ice foes across the harbor more than
half of the railroad tugs were out of
commission as result of damage from
trying to pound through. The naval
vessels failed to break a passage, when,
at the worst crisis, the steamship
Florizel arrived from Newfoundland.
Director Smith requisitioned the steam
ship on his own responsibility, though
she was worth million dollars with her
cargo, and she succeeded in crashing
through the ice of Kill Won Kull and
releasing strings of frozen-in barges.
The Hudson was finally opened up as
far as Yonkers.
On the eve of his retirement as
regional director Mr.. Smith sent tele-
grams to all of his subordinates, thank
ing them for their cooperation and COM
mending them for their services to the
government at the time of its great
need.

Work Under Hines Laid
Down by His Chief

It was announced from Washington
yesterday that Alfred H. Smith, re-
gional director for the Eastern terri
tory under the United States Railroad
Administration, has resigned. He will
resume the presidency of the New York
Central system, which he left with the
December %, 1917.
At TIE Offices Of the New York Cen
trail it was said yesterday that Mr.
Smiths resignation followed repeated
requests TO be relieved of his govern
ment duties in order that he might pre-
pare to resume his work as head of the
road. I. was said Mr.. Smith worked in
harmony with Director General Walker
D. Hines up to the moment of his res
ignation-
His place in the government service
will bo taken by A. T. Hardin, who
has bean assistant regional director
throughout government control. Mr..
Hardin was vlcc-president of the New
York Central. and is an expert in op-
GRAFTON, maintenance and. engineering.
He was in the service Of the New York
Central for twenty years. He began
his railroad career as telegraph op-
orator on the Southern Railway.
McAdoo's First Appointee
Mr.. Smith was the first appointee of
Director General McAdoo when the
government took over the railroads,

roads between Chicago and St. Louis
and the atlantic coast. During his
eighteen months service he put
through many revolutionary reforms
to clear tie serious congestion and
confusion r. the railway service which
followed the entrance Of this country
into the war. He was responsible for
the abolition of promiscuous priorities,
the establishment of the permit sys-
tenn, the running of solid supply trains
to connect with ocean transports, the
common use of facilities, equipment
and terminals and general co0rdina-
tion of effort by the Eastern railroads
to obtain the greatest possible war
service.
The most pressing problem Mr..
Smith had to deal with when he en-
tered the government service was con-
gestlon. Nearly $4,000 carloads of
freight were piled up at the railroad
terminals in North Atlantic seaports
when he took charge, clogging yard
tracks, warehouses, piers and plat
TOMS. Inland for miles long lines of
cars were massed. Movement was slow

Line of the Democrats
Northern States Counted
Chairman Hays Points to
Evidences of Weakening
by the Opposing Party

To break the "Solid South" in 1920 SO
effectually that it will not be solid any
more is the task laid out by VIII II.
Hays and the Republican National
Committee.
The weak spots in the Democratic
line have been tested out They are
Missouri, Kentucky and North Carolina.
1t is no secret, either in Republican
or Democratic camps, that the Repub-
lican attack will be especially severe
against the enemy in these three
states.
The Republicans are confident of
carrying every close Northern state.
In the Congressional elections last
year the Republicans carried twenty
nine states, while the Democrats were
successful in nineteen. This means, if
the Republicans hold their grip. that in
1920 the Republicans will have 342
electoral votes for their candidate for
President to 189 for the man heading
the Democratic ticket.
In 1916 the popular and electoral
votes were divided as follows:

In this connection an analysis of the

Love for Parents.
Let me cite a few OF the COM
moner varieties OF unjustifia BILE
jealousy-then sit down and decide
whether any one OF them is propa-
eating divorce bugs in your mind.
First off. are you Jealous OF the
love your helpmeet may retain for
his Cor herr parents? That is a
big cause of jealousy. especially
among newlyweds, and gives the
divorce courts more work than all
Of the other varieties put together

demands that husband or wife shall
relinQuish the tender affection that
is the tap root of all love, the very
quality that makes them worthy of
marriage and all that it involves.
Ths effort to belittle or destroy
flIial love is a dangerous boome-
rang. Success in sitting a mans
love as a son is almost certain to
kill his love as husband The
same is true of a wife's affections
for her people.
once Jealousy.
Another popular form OF jealousy
is that which begrudges the time a
husband spends at his office. or a
wife I'm the pursuit of innocent
pleasures.
-, How utterly absurd. The husband
is down there hustling for the
wherewithal to maintain the home.
purchase the necessities of life and
a few OF the luxuries, and prob
ably to lay aside a little reserve
for emergency.
Isn't the wife who permits her
self to question her husbands
right to labor for their joint con-
tentment, now and in the future,
very sillX-not to say insane
woman? YeTthere are many OF them
who do that very thing.
Amusem~nts.
And the man who begrudges his
wife some innocent amusements
while he is away from home-does
he deserve anything better than
grass s-widowerhood?
Scarcely less unworthy than those
two varieties is that kind of green
to the life Of either spouse before
nuptial acts which have little or no
bearing on the present.
My advice to welded couples. un-
less some dishonorable act has been
committed and not acknowledged
