HINES OUTLINES PLANS
Intends to Spend $500, 900, 900
on Railways This Year.
Individual Companies Will BE Given
Chance to Pass on All I'M
provements.

Washington, Jan 31.--About $780,
100000 will be spent by railroads this
year for extensions and improvements
and S200000,000 for new cars and loco
motives. according to preliminary
plans of the Railroad administration,
announced by Director General Hines.
Much greater capital expenditures
will be authorized, but indications now
are that the entire program cannot be
carried out before the end of the year
and no improvements or purchases of
equipment will be ordered by the Rail-
road administration without approval
of the individual railroad company.
Director General Hines believes the
aggregate expenditures for extensions
and improvements may run above the
$500, 100000 advance estimate and the
orders for new cars and locomotives
may fall below the s200,000,000 figure.
These outlays are in addition to $685.
100000 of equipment ordered last year
to be delivered and paid for this year.
improvements authorized, but not ac-
complished last year, must be recon
sidered now in the light Of peace con-
ditions and will be authorized again If
they are deemed still desirable.
In 1918 1855, $4,000 was spent for
additions and betterments, and $685.
S88,000 for equipment.

AIMED AT BOLSHEv|K|
House Receives Bill to Regulate
immigration.
Committee Report Says Measure VIII
Protect Labor From Unfair
Competition.

Washington, Jan. 31.-America as q
melting pot has proved to a great
extent delusion and a snare" de-
clared the House immigration com
mittee in it's report on the bill to
prevent general immigration for four
years after the signing of the peace
treaty.
The report said that the legislation
not only would protect American work
ingmen from unfair competition dur
ing the period of international ad
justment, but would prevent the
Bolsheviki from coming to America
to spread their doctrine.
IF the Bolsheviki In Russia are
suppressed" said the report, they
will be the ones to come here to join
their brothers, both foreign and ma
tive, in Haunting the red flag and
teaching death to individuals and de
struction of property.
ut is impossible to keep out revolu
tionists and Bolsheviki without keep
ing out practically everybody. We
have had a law excluding anarchists
for years and yet the war developed
the fact that we have thousands OF
them in our midst"
In presenting the report, Chairman
Burnett announced that he soon would
offer a resolution asking for rule tc
give the legislation right of way In
the house.

A very sharp distinction is being
drawn between damage which result

is the largest, but as Belgium suffered

Ever Kick a Battery to Pieces?

Of course you wouldn't do it Intentionally.
No good driver would.
But a lot of experienced drivers of trucks
and passenger cars have kicked their bat
teries to pieces without even knowing it by
banging on the starting button when the
motor didn't take hold at once.
Perhaps the trouble was just thick oil.
Maybe water had accumulated in the
carburetor.
Possibly connection had worked loose.
