CANADIAN CAPITAL
GREETS BRITISH HEIR
Visit OF Prince Expected to
Strengthen Ties of Dominion
and Crown

Ottawa, Aug. %. - Sixty thousand
persons gathered on Parliament Hill
yesterday to welcome the Prince Of
Wales, who arrived on a special train
from Toronto. His route from the rail-
road station to the hill was lined with
cheering citizens.
The governments official address of
welcome, signed by Premier Borden and
Secretary of State Burrell, expressed
the belief that the princes visit would
strengthen the ties of affection and de-
votion which bind the Canadian people
to the British crown. Referring to the
princes association with the Canadian
forces overseas, the address says:
This comradeship in arms in n
world wide struggle for the preservation
of justice and liberty has established
n peculiar bond of affection and sym
pathy between your royal highness and
this dominion which will never be
severed"
The prince in his reply to the off :
cial address voiced his thanks for the
expressions Of allegiance and for the
reception that he had received from
the citizens of the Dominion capital.

URGE WAKEFIELD PLAN
Head of Rail Securities Body
Asks Congress to Assure
6 Per Cent Interest
WOULD ADJUST R. R. RATES

Washington, Aug. 29.-Principles of
the Warfield plan, under which a mini
mum interest return of 6 per cent on
railroad securities would be guaranteed
through a mandatory adjustment of
rates by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, were ndorsed by '50, 200, 900
persons owning or directly interested in
railroad securities according to me
mortal to Congress submitted to the
House interstate commerce committee
today by s. Davies Warfield, president
Of the National Association Of Owners
OF Railroad Securities.
Signers of the memorial numbered
5000 investing institutions. including
savings banks, national and state banks,
surety companies, trust companies and
life and FIRE insurance companies. and
$3.50 individual investors.
The shipping public also was repre-
sented in the Endorsement by sixteen
municipal trade organizations, with an
estimated total membership OF Ho'oUO'
Insurance companies giving their IN
: dorsement were said to represent -"'-
600, 900 policyholders, whilc it was cS-
timated that $500 800 persons were
represented by savings banks.
In presenting the memorial, Mr..
Warfield said its signers did not ask
sf'the continuation of autOCratic rallr"dd
methods of the past, but just ana
definite solution by the Congress OF
the most important problem now before
The country
Urging favorable consideration by
Congress of the remedial legislation
proposed in the Warfcld plan, the me
mortal declared:
"It is our conviction that the rail
roads cannot avoid destruction and
eventual governmental absorption with
out a primary distributablc return OF
not less than 6 per cent assured upon
the aggregate investment, not through
governmental guarantee, but through
the exercise by Congress of It's duty
10 stop, by act. the knife Of rcgula-
ton short of the heart of the trans
portation system Of the United States.
"The responsibility for the existing
system and the duty Of conserving trans
portation in America rests exclusively
upon the Congress. The Interstate
Commerce Commission has not the
power and cannot, consistently with
the constitution, be charged with the
responsibility of determining funda-
mental questions of public policy.
AWe appeal to this Congress to dis
charge its duty by the only possible
method. The first requisite is a manda
tory declaration that the power of reg
ulation shall not be employed 50 as to
depress net operating income below the
level which experience has shown to be
necessary to sustain the carriers.
'aThe legislation proposed is based
upon the necessity that Congress shall,
by law, recognize minimum percentage
return on the aggregate investment as
d necessary limitation upon its delega =
ton Of rate making power TO the In
terstate Commerce Commission and
shall, by law, enable that commission to
comply with the duty to conserve trans
portation in America.
