 Luther NJ. Walter. of Chicago. gen eral counsel for the National Associa- which sponsors the plan; discussed it's a five hour session and declared it could be put into effect at once, or cer- tainly with the return of the roads to private control at the end of the year.
 The right of labor to share in the profits of the road was laid down by MT. Walter as one of the funamentals of the plan.
 In the general exchange of views on the present day transportation situa- tion, MT. Walter declared the roads would have been more successfully managed for war purposes under pri- vate control.
 The Warfield plan would have the Interstate Commerce Commission fix rates on a basis which, after paying the cost of operation. would net the cussing this provision, Chairman Esch, who for six months has been making a detailed study of the problem. wanted to know if this congress enacted law making the return six per cent whether another congress might not increase or reduce it.

IRVING FISHER TELLS CAUSE
 OF INDUSTRIAL UPHEAVAL

Washington, Aug. 14.-Haled before the bar of the Federal Electric Rail- ways Commission today. billion dol lars in foreign gold was arrayed by Professor Irving Fisher Of Yale Uni versity, as the chief culprit in not only bringing American trollcvs to bank ruptcy, but in sending prices generally skrocketing to undreamed-of high levels.
 The flood of bullion, he said. came before the war, sent over to meet pur- chases by belligerent powers in the United States With the first appear prices began to leap skyward, even prices articles wholly unrelated to the war
 The result of the gold importation has been depreciation of the Ameri can dollar, so far as it's purchasing power was concerned, Professor Fish CT asserted.
 The remedy is easy, the witness de- clared- Stabilization Of the dollar by regulation of the price of gold in ac- cordance with price fluctuations was possible, he said, through the system of dollar values worked out by gov ernment economists.
 Applying his theory of gold infla- tion to the case of the trolley lines, Professor Fisher said the basic trouble was that the fixed rates of fare no longer were adequate to meet expenses since the purchasing power of the nickel was but one third of what it was when most of the five cent rates were fixed. Obviously. he said, the logical thing to meet the present em- ergency appeared to be to raise fares: but in that would be implied equaliza- tion to the new price levels of all other fixed charges such as interest rates, salaries and all similar contract agreements that were fixed in terms of '-big" dollars, before the gold inf1a- tion, and should not now be met with deDreciated little dollars

Plane Drops Mail
 On Steamer At Sea
Experiment Made Under Di- rection of New York Post Office Was Successful.

New York, Aug. 1.-The first deliv- cry of mail from seaplane to a steamer at sea was made successfully today when C. J. Zimmerman flew over the liner Adriatic tow hours after she had left her dock and dropped on her deck a mail bag weighting approximately 100 pounds. The experiment was made under the direction of the New York postoffice which proposes to make such air deliveries a regular feature of it's foreign mail service.
 The letters in the sack were mailed four hours after the closing of the regular mail for the liner. fThe post office authorities hope that by means of the. air service they will be able to forward regularly important mail which is received too late to catch steamers in the ordinary way.
 The sailing of the Adriatic marked the opening of the new service by the White Star Line between New York and Cherbourg and Southampton. Among the passengers was J. F. Per shing of Chicago, brother of General Pershing, who left on a business trip to England and France and said he expected to return with the general
