night.
II very much disapprove Of the plan.
am almost certain the republicans will

democrats do too. We should not let

America" he said. :.
II do believe in close supervision Of
the railroads Of the country. but such
supervision as we have has been too
severe. We should give the railroads a
chance, give them adequate revenues
by proper rates SO they can attract the
necessary capital for necessary mainte-
nance and improvements. We have not
allowed the rates to go up as they
should"
Referring to the strikes Of railroad

a final judgment, will say that from
what L do know. 1t seems to me that
the men are requesting a greater in
crease than the percentage Of increase

it appears, they are asking more than
they are entitled to receive"
