OF NEW PLAN ID SAVE
 RAILS
CBy Associated PIess)

WASHINGTON, Dec. To. - The bill enbodying permanent legislation to meet the situation with the return of the railroads to private control continued today before the senate but with senators admittedly still in the dark as to the time President Wilson plans to turn back the roads.
 Director General Hines has sent to the president new recommendations as to ending government operations but he would not discuss them today and White House officials professed to have no information.
 Many seiators and some adminis- tration officials held to the opinion that the president will not carry out his notice to congress of last May that government control will be ended by January l. They think the time of the return will depend largely on the progress made by congress on the permanent legislation.
 In its efforts to speed up perman- ent legislation, the senate held an other night session but there was little prospects of final congressional action until we'll after the holidays.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. - The senate coal investigation committee resuming today its inquiry into the administration strike settlement agreement was told today by Tracy w.

FindSaLmon With Two Mouths; Only
 Water to Drink
CBy Associated FressJ

PORTLAND, Dec. 16.-A salmon with two complete mouths was re- gently taken from the Columbia river near here, by fishermen. The freak was not discovered until 1t reached local market Injury when young is said to have caused the growth of the under jaw, which is filled with teeth.
 The fish, silverside salmon, weighed ten pounds. Careful exam ination revealed that the V-shaped cartilage which supports the tongue had been loose from the lower jaw, probably when the fish was a finger ling, and had healed perfectly, giving the fish the semblance of two lower jaws. Nothing similar had even been seen here among the hundreds of thousands of tons of salmon handled annually
 There was only one entrance through the throat into the gullet, however, and 1t is assumed the fish had muscular control over the extra jaw, for even fish, if it keeps it's mouth open, will drown, according to of the finny family.

Xerxes Hadn't Anything on Old
 Ludendorff- Wolff
CBy Associated Press,

BERLIN, Dec I0. - Theodore Wolff, writing in tsc "Tageblatt.' ' compares General Ludendorff, form erly chief of the German general staff, with Xerxes, who, after the destruction of his fleet ordered the sea to be whipped"
 It does not indicate much strength of soul," he continues, when Luden- dorf repeatedly seeks to make the people responsible for the revolution, which was occasioned only by mill tary failures. He Is considerably more unjust than Xerxes.
 t"The Americans whom he had ridi- culed came and the tanks that he had made fun of arrived also. On June 6 the announcement was made, to the German people that the proud man. oeuvre army of the Entente as such exists no longer, and five days later came the dissolution and complete destruction of the Foch manoeuvre army
 Yet all of a sudden, as four years before, the German army had ven tured too far, the manoeuvre army was there. The German troops had to give, and in the deception which followed so many lying claims, in the bitterness at the murderous mistakes, and in the recognition that the ridi- culed entry of America Germans fate was sealed, a four-year old courage collapsed" %

CONGRESS HOPES ID CUT OFF
 BIG WASTE

. WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. - When the republican congress convened on May l9 it found awaiting it for action seven of the regular appropriation bills that the democrats had failed to complete before adjournment of the previous session on March 4. Those measures were promptly enacted, with a saving to the country, under the estimates submitted by the eX- ecutive departments, of $l ,685, ,OO0, ,OOO. and of about S940,000,000 under the amounts carried in the corresponding democratic bills that failed of pass age. Estimates are now before con gress for the regular supply bills for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921. In them the democratic departmental chiefs ask for total appropriations of $4,865, ,410,03162.
 Of that huge total about $1, ,OOO, 900 is for so-called permanent appro- priations, which cannot be avoided, including interest on the public debt, and other obligations heretofore un- dertaken by the government. The balance of the estimates, S3,44O,O ,OOO,- GOO for regular appropriations, rep resents an increase over the amounts actually appropriated in the same bills for the fiscal year 1920 of over $404,000,000. In every case, except two, the departments have asked for increases over the amounts allotted them last year, varying from about $l, 100000 in the diplomatic and con sular bill to $300,000,0O0 in the sun dry civil bill; this in spite of the fact that the country is one year further removed from the war.

 RED REFUGE, SAID;. BILL TO COMPEL IT TODEPORT RADICALS.
By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec. l6. - Legislative proposals of the house immigration committee to aid in ridding the country of alien radi- calls framed after prolonged hear ings here and in New York were presented to the house today by Chairman Johnson, republican, of Washington, who declared the bill was so drawn as to force the department of labor to act against alien agitators.
 Secretary Wilson has held, MT. Johnson said, that mere member ship in the l. w. w. or kindred organizations was not sufficient under the law to warrant depor- tation.
 The committees bill, he added, made the letter and intent of the law plain and unmistakable, as under 1t, afiliation or any finan- cial connection with organizations teaching radical doctrines without the commission of any overt act meant deportation.
 Representative Blanton, demo- crat, of Texas, declared the de- partment of labor was honey combed with the spirit of anarch- ism from Secretary Wilson down; and Representative Davey, demo- crat, of Ohio, warned the com mittee that the public would take matters into its own hands and string these wild eyed radicals to telephone poles throughout the country" unless congress hasten ed to act
