Lodge Make An Emphatic
Denial.

Washington, July 21.-senate de-
bate on the peace treaty and the
League Of Nations covenant was re-
newed today with a sharp controversy
between Senator's Williams, democrat,
Mississippi, and Lodge, Massachusetts,,
and Borah, Idaho, republicans, over
the Shantung settlement.
Senator Williams charged that the
republicans had submitted erroneous
statistics regarding Shantung but both
, reiterated that while Japan secured
territorial control over only Shantung
ports, the German railroad and other
concessions transferred gave her
practical control over the entire pro-
vince.
The Idaho senator asserted that the
practical effect of the Shantdng pro-
visions was to deliver both political
and economical sovereignty over the
province to Japan.
Williams Resolution.
Senator Williams, democrat. Missis-
sippi, offered resolution declaring
the committee willing to approve such
an appointment, but Chairman Lodge

Everybody was happy yesterday over

100000 pounds Of canned bacon.
The Rev. DIR. Jonathan c. Day. COM

soner discovered that the army would
let the city have 100000 pounds of

rs cents,y for retail to the people at 2s

TRANSIT SITUATION

CITY BUSES DEFYING LAW
One Great Holding Company
Urged as Best Solution Of
New York Tangle.

In reviewing the transit situation be-
fore the New York Board Of Trade and
TRANSPORTATION in So Park Row yester-
day Lewis Nixon. Public Service Com
missioner, said the jitney buses which
Mayor Hyian has put into operation on
the old storage battery routes are too
small to afford any conclusion as to
service. 1.-THE present buses will pass
away at the first snowstorm." he said.
He also contended that the buses are
run In defiance of law and without the
usual safeguards agains accidents. Ad-
hitting that in some places buses would
give excellent service, he said they must
be real, substantial vehicles under proper
regulation, and for such operation fare
of more than 8 cents would be necessary.
Commissioner Nixon said also that II
he had found upon taking Office that
New Yorks traffic distress was an iso-
lated instance he would have thought
extravaga or mismanagement the
cause. But about three-fourths of the
cities of more than $4,000 population
had raised rates or their companies were
In financial difficulties.
1.-THE best solution of the New York
tangle," he said, would be to put the
roads under one great holding company.
preferably a railroad corporation subject
to the railroad laws. BY doing this,
we may some day be able to have NUM-
ripal ownership. and then 1t will be a
simple matter to turn the lines over.
At present do not think the people
of New York have arrived at the point
where they care to repudiate private
property rights"
Favors Flexible Fare.
As another solution, Mr.. Nixon sug-
gested a flexible fare adjusted to the
cost of service. He said this would
make possible the lowering of some fares
below the present rate.
'Tf a man on a certain salary or wage
| finds his cost OF living increased he
must either get more income or reduce
| his standard Of living" he continued
so transit companies operating on a
| fixed fare when they meet Increased
| operating costs must have the fare in

cannot be reduced. That would result
in suffocating and dangerous condition.
