Serious Monetary Trouble Con-
fronts Administration as Re-
suit of Senates' Failure to
Pass Appropriation Bill.
ONLY $31, 600, 600 ON HAND
TO MEET HUGE EXPENSES
Consider Turning Roads Back
to Private Owners or Bor-
rowing Funds From Banking
Interests Till Trouble Clears.

Washington, March S. - Director
Hines today Is formulating plans for
meeting the serious financial troubles
confronting the railroad administration
n a result of the senate's failure to
pass the $750,000,000 appropriation for
the roads.
He is expected to lay his conclusions
before President Wilson by wireless
within a few days, and the president
will determine the future policy.
With immediate need of $315, 100000
due the railroads in rentals; approx
mately $200,000.000 to take up or re-
new maturing bonds. and many mil
lions due industries on supplies al
ready provided, the railroad adminis-
tration has only s31,o00.0O0 on hand
with which to work.
TWO COURSES OPEN.
Two courses, which have been sug-
culties. are:
Turn tho railroads back to pri-
vate management again, the gov
ernment to exercise form of
guardianship pending the readjust-
mont, to prevent collapse Of any
Of the systems; or,
Have tbs railroads 90 to the
banking interests and borrow the
money, with or without tho gov
ernment's assistance. Many sena-
tors and some of the railroad ad-
ministration officials arc counsel
Ing the first course.
The difficulty of the second course
Il is pointed out. Is that IL the gov.
eminent does not stand back of tn,
roads attempting to borrow none!
they may experience great difficult!
and II the government does secure an.
such loans 1t would create a condition
where government railroad bond
would be competing with liberty LOAF
bonds and notes on the open market
Whether one of these or some othe
solution Is reached in handling tn,
problem, 1t is certain. railroad official
said. that improvements and exten
sions must be deferred and operating
costs must be trimmed wherever pos
sible.
Meantime, scores of thousands o
railroad stock and bond holders ar
left in doubt today as to whether o
when they will be paid interest o
dividends on their holdings. TIL
$815,000 900 for railroad rentals du
covers this interest or dividend
nearly 10 per cent of which. 1t is SAID
ID due private investors-not bankin
interests.
This uncertainty, combined with tn
stoppage of railroad improvement
and extensions may have on geners
business condition, is the prime worn
Of the government, it Is said.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
More hog-cholera serum was manu-
featured last year than in any previous
year, despite decrease in the amount
of hog cholera. The increased demand
for hOg-chOlera serum Is ascribed to
the greater value of hogs, with the
consequent greater loss when one dies,
and to the fact that hog raisers are be-
coming more appreciative of the value
of using serum manufactured under
federal supervision.
Department of agriculture officials
warn hog raisers against the indis.
eliminate use of medicines or proprie-
tary preparations other than serums,
as experience has shown that nothing
except serum, properly prepared and
administered, is effective. Medicines
other than serums, according to de-
partment officials, are worse than USE
less, because they not only fail to cure
or prevent disease, but allow the loss
of the animals they are advertised to
save, thus taking money from the
farmer and meat from the nations
supply.
AntitOxins. serums, and other biOlOg-
ical products for the treatment of do

censed establishments are prepared

inarians and their assistants of the

in addition to forty-me inspectors and
clerks. are now engaged in this work
and are located in eleven states.
Federal regulations require that all
animals used In the preparation or
testing Of hog-chOlera serum and
hog-cholera virus, both of which are
used in the treatment of hogs In the
prevention of hog cholera, be procured
direct from farms and not transported
through stockyards or similar places
where they might be exposed to con-
tagious diseases. AS an additional
safeguard all animals must not only
be inspected by bureau veterinarians
at the time they are presented for adj
