 MT. McAdoo still is expecting daily to receive word from President Will son concerning the appointment of new director general and has no information Indicating the reasons for delay, it was stated. If no selec- tion is made by the time he leaves for vocation in California, Tuesday, he will maintain nominally the func- tions of Director General. although Walker D. Hines, his assistant, may act informally as director, designat- ed by McAdoo. as he has done fre- QuenAy in the pasts
 Senator Kellogg sought by question ing to show that the railroads operat- ing privately, but with unified control under some sort of government sup ervision, could effect most of the economies and reforms advocated by MT. McAdoo. The senator referred particularly to embargoes which the director general maintained should be imposed as emergency measures through the exercises of the permit system, whatever form of control is adopted. MT. McAdoo suggested that to prevent abuse of the embargo pow CT, railroads should not be allowed to act alone and arbitrarily but possibly with the supervision of the interstate commerce commission. Senator Un- derwood questioned whether embar- goes would be necessary under peace conditions when ports are not con- gested.
 Senator Kellogg, asked:
 ''Mr. McAdoo you have stated that 1t should be possible to reduce rates this year. As a matter of fact, has not the railroad administration plans on foot for raising rates?"
 ''No," replied MT. McAdoo, i've have under consideration a plan for equalf- zation of rates which may have the in- cidental effect of raising charges in some localities"
 Turning to the question of threat eied breakdown in morale among off cers and employees, which he feared if government control should be limit ed to 21 months, the director general said:
 Tt would be difficult with the im-. pending presidential campaign to keep the railroad question out of politics. If the railroads are held cn1y 21 months, fear the employees themselves would become objects of solicitation for one plan of campaign or one group of candidates. The railroads of the Uni- ted States must be kept out of p7litics. I have religiously kept politics out of my administration I do not know he politics of my assistants or my re- gional directors. selected them be- cause of their ability to run the rail roads. If only fer the reason that railroad men might foresee change. of masters, the result, l fear, would be a lowering of efficiency and this would work out as danger to the lives Of travellers.

According to advices received by Manager Young, of the Arkansas Gas Company from j. R. Munse, general manager of the company at Little Rock, there will be gas for Pine Bluff Monday.
 MT. Munse, according to MT. Young, is at the scene of the break and was present there when the auxiliary line "blew out," following the "cut in," when the new line was tried out Thursday night. Work is now being pushed on the auxiliary line, and General Manager Munse stated that it should be in condition to receive the gas by Monday. The blowout occurred when too great a pressure was forced through the small calibre pipe Manager Young stated yesterday that his belief was that six inch pipe would be put in instead of the four inch pipe. Should the six inch pipe be put in, it will be sufficiently large to hold the pressure. According to MT. Young, General Manager Munes is confident that the gas famine will be relieved Monday. Petition We'll Circulated.
 The petition to the city council, ori- ginating at the Cotton Belt shops Thursday is being circulated all over the city. According to Z F. Mitchell, office superintendent of motive power at the shops, there have been none so far who have refused to sign the peti- tiOn Eight of the petitions were circulat. ed yesterday. One was sent to The Ar kansas Shortleaf Lumber Company, one to- Reinberger- Collier drug store, one to Rosenbergs drug store one to Bloom and Burton's drug store, one to Central Pharmacy, and the remain der have been circulated at other points in the city.

NORTHERN PACIFIC
 CLEARED 0F SICK AND WOUNDED MEN
After Four Days of Strenuous Foil In Manning the Stranded Transport, Sailors Retire Early.

Fire Island, Jan. 4.--Weary sailors manning the stranded transport, Northern Pacific, who shared with coast guards and crews of rescue ships in the unparalleled task of send ing safely ashore through the break CTS, 2,500 we'll and wounded soldiers, climbed into their hammocks tonight free, for the first time in four days of anxiety over the safety of the army veterans homeward bound from Eu- rope. The last of the troops aboard went over the side today.
 The sun, which cheered the liners company today after the hours of mist, rain, snow and cutting wind, had hardly dropped below the horizon when the slender arch of a new moon appeared above bank of red-tinged clouds in the west, giving promise of fair weather tomorrow, for the re- moval of half the grounded vessels crew.
 Captain Connolly reported to Cap- tain Sterling, chief of staff of the Third Naval district in command on the beach, that his vessel was taking no water. The ship, he said, was in
 
 good spirits, though anxious to get ashore.
 With her decks cleared of army per- sonnel and orders issued for trans shipment of half the crew, wrecking barges and lighters, with an equip ment of powerful winches today clos ed in on the stranded troopship Northern Pacific ready to begin oper- ations which were expected, possibly with the next flood tide, to free the liner from her bed in the Fire Island sands.
 Removal of 200 wounded, the last of the army transport Northern Paci- fic soldier passenger list aboard the stranded liner, was begun early today under clearing skies and in an even sea. Subamiren chasers and naval launches carrying the men to the hos pital ship Solace, were expected to compete the operation before noon. Twenty soldiers so seriously wounded that it was necessary to car ry them on stretchers down stair way swung over the stransport's side made up the final contingent of pas sengers to leave the vessel. As the sub- marine chaser which carried them headed for the hospital ship Solace, sailor on the Northern Pacific signal platform wig-wagged to shore an of ficer's message that none but navy men remained aboard the liner.
 Thus at 2:30 o'clock after three days of cold. wet work, the sailor men and their officers wrote "finis'' to a story of off-shore rescue work considered without parallel in the annals of American shipping-the re- moval without loss of life of 2,500 persons, nearly 300 of them badly wounded from stranded vessel ',

INDICATED GAS WILL BE FLOWING MONDAY
A Slight Hope Is Held Out That Denizens of Pine Bluff May Be Warming By Ether Fuel Tonight.
* + @ + s # + < # + + t

Shreveport, La., Jan. 4.-Ar- kansas cities may again be us- 1 ing 'gas Monday. Hope was entertained Saturday night by officers of the Arkansas Natur- " al Gas Company, whose pipes from the Caddo Fields, to many important Arkansas cities blew out for the second time within two weeks Friday afternoon, for an early repair and for re- lief to the shivering popula- tions of Little Rock and other cities.
 Workmen are laboring day and night to repair the leak age. Cofferdams have been built around that portion of the Sulphur River where the pipes have exploded. This en- ables the men repairing the pipes to reach the damaged parts.
 Every effort is being strained by company officials to supply Arkansans with gas by Sum day night at the earliest and not later than Monday.

 AN EXPED|ENT
 INADEQUATE
McAdoo Still Advocates Ex- tension of Railroad Con- trol For Five Years.

Washington, Jan. 4. 4.-Only through the proposed five year extension of government management of railroads a permanent and comprehensive so- lution of the railroad problem, Di- rector General McAdoo insisted to- day in testifying at the senate h. terstate Commerce Committees hearing on railroad legislation. Oth- CT plans, such as private manage mant, possibly with limited consoli. dation of lines and with government supervision, Mr. McAdoo said he considered inadequate expedients" and make shifts" and he was pre- pared now to make no further rec ommandation if congress decides not to extend control as he had suggest ed.
 Questions of Senators Kellogg, Gore, Mclean. Townsend, Cummins and Watson were directed at MT. Mo. Adoo in vain attempt to ascer- tain his ideas of what course would be best as an alternative for the five year proposal.
 He defended government operation against what he described as "an attempt to discredit it on the ground that net earnings had been insuffi- cient to pay the compensation guar anteed by the government" saying judgment ofunisied operation should be based on earnings only in norm al peace times, and that this was another reason for testing govern ment control for five years.
 To Senator Cores inquiry: Don't you think the railroads should be permitted to consolidate, grativating toward two or three competing na. tronal systems, which some govern ment supervision?" MT. McAdoo an-

Tense, railways, aviation and police
service.
The draft provides that the fedora

publics. but does not provide for Ba-
varia or German Austria. The docu-
ment finally adopted will therefore
probably provide for ten constituent

ban and rural districts of Greater
Berlin having 100000 inhabitants
This republic shall stand at the head
of the federation and will be subject
to state government only.
