public attention rather sharply to this

labor laws TO keep children from en-
dangering their health in poorly ven

the city government forces youths to

WASHINGTON, Feb l3.-Danici VII
lard, president OF the baltimore and
Ohio. continuing his testimony today
before the Senate Interstate Commerce
Committee, proposed ultimate consoii-
dation of I'll the country's railroads
into about twenty-five great systems
along present lines. "a an alternative
to the plan for establishing regional
systems on a geographical basis.
NJ. Willard submitted n map to show
T. CIV competition would be preserved
under his PLAN With tho big roads alb
so.bing the weaker ones. i Under the
proposed regional system he said corn
petition would be eliminated In each
region and service would suffer.
Funds for purcha sing the small roads
should be provided, the committee was
told. from excess earnings OF the pros
porous ones, which otherwise would go
to the government.
THINKS IN FIVE YEARS
WOULD BIZ RUT FORTY SYSTEMS
In this way. aIr. Willard said. the big
roads would be induced TO promote tho
plan, and he predicted tha, within five
years there would remain not more
than forty sya;cms. Al present. he
pointed ou; there are 162 railroads
earning more than S1,0o0,00o Il year
each.
In reply TO questions of Senator
Pomcrcne, of Ohio. Mr Willard said:
Il would not bring about this consol;-
nit the roads 10 carry 1t out by re-
moving present restrictions.
If Congress accepts extension o. Fed
cral control until 1874, said Ar. Will
lard. Il. is accepting government
ownership under different name"
Explaining his idea OF the functions
OF Il secretary of transportation, Mr.
Willard favored making the office
largely advisory. leaving administers
tion and management OF the railroa DIS
to existing agencies.
QUESTIONS OF RATES
AND LOANS TO RE SETTLED
The only two questions which should
be settled before the roads are rcl!n-
quished. Mr.. Willard said arc those
OF sufficient rates and the settlement
OF loans received from the government
Senator Cummins said he proposed
to offer an amendment to tho pending;
bill appropriating $40, 900. 900 for the
railroad administration to prevent re-
linquishmcnt OF the roads until after
Congress has enacted new Legislation
which, he said, would not be before
next December.
