RAILROAD ISSUES

When Executive Lands.

WASHINGTON, July S~,-Problems

be among the first business laid before
PRESIDENT Wilson or his return to
washington. Director General Hines
plans to confer with the president neyt
week, but declined "Wednesday TO IN.
dictate what matters would be discussed
other than to say that he had no spe-
cltic recommendations to make.
IL Is believed, however, that increased
freight rates will be perhaps the most
important topic. Operating expenses
ave increased at IA much faster ratio
than operating income and gradually
increasing business, which as vet has
not attained its full volume, has not

lleVlng that a decision will be possible
by Sept. |, perhaps earlier. Traffic ex-
perts are inclined TO think that an
advance in rates will reduce business.
q factor to which close attention is
being given. "
Corporate control Constitutes another
subject likely to be taken up at the
conference between MIR. Hines and the
president. Suggestions for the return
OF the roads to direction OF the owning
companies have been made by railroad
officials, who argue that time should
be given to %reorganize their stats be-
fore Dec. 81, the date set by President
Wilson when federal control is to be
relinQuished, Mir. Hines stated posi-
lively that no plans were being made
for n return of the roads to corporate
control in the immediate future, but
mat such a return might be allowed
late In the year, perhaps December,
July requirements Of the railroads,
approximately $95, 900, 600. were met
from cash on hand and no checks we're
issued against the appropriation made
by congress, which Is not yet avail
able, as the signed bin has not reached
this country. Mr., Hines made this
statement in answer to published re-
ports that checks dated July | had
been sent out with the provision that
they should not be used unless the
railroad bin became law by that date.
The railroad administrations" Mr.,
Hines said, has never In the past
given and will not in the future give
checks not represented by money avail
able in banks to pay them when pre-
sented.'

WHAT OXYGEN DOES
FOR THE Living BODY
Without ftthere could be no living body-since without
oxygen there cannot be any life.

Oxygen acts on the blood, and
by constantly cleansing and re-
vitalizing it, converts the blood
into a vigilant guardian against the
insidious attacks of disease. Ii as
sists every natural force in the
body 1t makes it possible for the
blood TO build up-what the stress
of daily activity, over-work, over
exertion, and over-taxing of the
body-tears down. Waste products
, are cast out-new cells grow-the
hollow cheeks fill out and take on
the ruddy glow of health. The
spring comes back to the step, the
VIII body tingles with health and
vitality, while the brain is cleared
TO meet the battle with the prob
lens of life.
II the supply of oxygen is not
suficient-the engine runs down
vital force wanes-the fire goes out
and the whole machinery of the
body stops.
But when the blood is vitaiized
with oxygen - the complicated
structure of the cells of the body
is broken down, and the energy
liberated-that drives the human
engine.

ID EsPoNslBILITY for defeat OF The peace treaty rests
~ squarcy upon tie shoulders Of Woodrow Wilson.
Every members Of the ready
to vote for with the Central Powers ever It
was possible 10 agree upon terms
Every day unnecessary delay in accomplishing that
result has been due to the stubborn nssence Of Wood
row Wilson that his Impractical un-Amercan and dan
gerous league Of nations scheme be loaded upon the
treaty as rider and carried through because Of the de.
sire Of the whole world for peace
on March T. 1919 thirty-nne Senators signed a solemn
declaration Of theil desire that:
Negotiations on the part Of the United States
should Immediately be directed TO the utmost exped-
ton Of the urgent business OF negotiating peace
terms with Germany satisfactory to the United States
and the nations with whom the United States is
ISOLATED in the war against the German government,
and that the proposal for a league Of nations to in
sure the permanent peace Of the world should be then
taken up for careful and serious consideration"
That declerason from sufficient number OF
Senators to ene IL to the respectful consideration
even the number had not been sufficient to defeat
treaty loaded down with The league scheme
But under the Constitution no treaty can become ef-
fectiye IL 33 Senators vote against it,
The deliberate and formal declaration Of these 30 SEN
aors complete final notice to the President that If
he encumbered the peace treaty with Tie league scheme
he would defeat the treaty.
With that notice before him, he persisted in his auto
cratic programme willing TO delay peace rather than
yield his Visionary plan for international organization
In which the United states would be called upon TO make
what he himself called the supreme sacrifice"
treaty could have been ratified within week
If it had to The Senate with extraneous matter
forced into its provisions.
Quite likely the Senate would have indicated its dissent
from the Shantung provision but would have merely
corded that dissent without preventing other nations
making it effective If they chose
straightforward unencumbered peace treaty would
have been ratified with material delay.
These facts patent 10 all who followed the
peace treaty proceedings.
The esotisn ambition, prdc-ofauihorshp autocratic
spirit impractical idealism unknown factor in
