WANTS OWNERS
RUN RAILROADS
Vice-President Thinks |. C.. C..
Powers Should Be
Enlarged
Rn Associated Press.

Atlantic City. N. j., May 2S.-
Vice-President Thomas r. Marshall
told the American Cotton Manufac-
turers' Association in session here
yesterday that he wanted to see the
railroad operated by their owners.
Il think nevertheless, he added.
that the powers of the Interstate
Commerce Commission should be en-
larged. / believe that the Interstate
Commerce Commission should have
control not only of the physical
property but the securities of inter-
state transportation corporations.
think that body should have the
right to say that no more railroads
shall be built through territory al
ready adequately served.
ut is my opinion also that the
waterways should be linked up with
the railroads in the creation of a
complete transportation system.
This plan might go a long way to-
wards overcoming rate making COM
binations by railroads.
Il want the government to dis
pose of the greatest merchant ma
rine in the world to private corpora
tons. Pocket whatever loss there
may be as a part of the losses OF
war and give the American manu-
facturer an opportunity to get into
the world markets.
Il am unalterably opposed to
government ownership of anything
the government does not have to
have. The real weakness of govern
ment ownership of anything is that
there is nobody to cuss, nobody to
sue and nobody to reward. 1 never
knew much good to come out of
anything in which men had no hope
of reward or honor.
1T is utterly impossible to run a
shipping business by acts of Con-
gress. That requires quick decision,
sudden changes of policy and power
to fix rates as circumstances re-
quire"
Referring to business conditions
Vice-President Marshall said:
81 hope there will be no more
remedial legislation in this country
for the benefit of any class. / do not
think it is going to make much diff
ference from this time forward who
rides the government.
Il am here to tell you that you
cannot reduce wage scales in Amer
lea. 1t would be idle to attempt II
while the present high cost of livins
continues. 1t is foolish to think that
men will be willing to go back to
things as they were before the war.
If the League of Nations is ever to
be for us more than a painted ship
on a painted ocean, it must be back
ed by peace and prosperity among
our people,"

Itching and Burning Eruptions
Torture Victims.

Only those who are afflicted
with Eczema, letter, Erysipe-
las, boils and similar so-called
skin diseases can appreciate the
real terrifying discomfort that
comes from these disorders.
Just imagine that there is a
steady blaze of fire in constant
contact with your tender skin,
and you can form some idea of
the pain that must be endured
by the afflicted. For the mil
lions and millions of tiny dis
ease germs that seem to burrow
through the skin, each one car
rying a torch of fire, cause pain
that is almost unendurable.
And the constant plea of
those afflicted is the oft-repeat-
ed question, "How can find re-
lief from this constant torture ?"
Not palliative, temporary relief
that causes the terrible itching
to abate for awhile, but real
genuine relief. that shakes off the
shackles of the disease and re-
stores the skin to its former
healthy condition.
And temporary relief is the
most that can be expected from
local treatment, such as oint.
ments, salves, lotions, etc.
which is one reason why these
diseases seem to hold on with
such tenacity. 1t is not because
they are incurable, but because
they are improperly treated, that
they appear to be so stubborn
and so difficult to cure.
The fact is they are misnam.
cd, and therefore, Improperly
treated. Because the trouble at
tacks the skin and all the pair
and discomfort is confined tc
the surface of the skin, these dis.
orders are called "skin diseases
But the real cause is a disease
germ in the blood, which multi,

High War Wages
Helped Retail Trade

Chicago-High wages paid in the
latter part of the war period may be
regarded as accounting for the great
activity in general retail trade. 1t
was not the well-to-do classes that
furnished the buyers of fur coats and
jeyelry but the fortunate workers
who suddenly found themselves in
the enjoyment of unexpectedly large
incomes. ..........4.s.s
The record of sales of commercial
gold bars by the New York assay
office indicates the prevalence of
jewelry buying at a time when per-
sons of large means were economical
because they saw at least 40 per cent
of their income passing to the Gov
ernment in the form of income taxes.
In the month of April the assay
office sold to jewellers a total of
$4,S59.454 gold, being the largest
amount recorded for any one month
in sales of gold for jewelry making
purposes. Also the month of March
showed a total of S4,353,164 gold. The
April figures compare with $2,55S,16O
in April 1914, before the war began,
and $1,S69,076 in April, 1915, before
the upturn in wages began. In April,
1916, however, the volume OF sales
rose to $3,674.2S1, and in April. 1917,
the sales were S3.550,022. So far as
these figures indicate, the high war
wages were responsible for an in
crease of almost 100 per cent in sales
of jewelry.
A leading eastern jeweler is quoted
as saying: 'It would surprise most
people to learn how laboring men are
buying jewelry and gold articles these
days. Their purchases run all the
way from 500 to $500 and $500. 1t
seems to be a regular obsession with
the wage Garner who has accumulated
little money to indulge in jewelry
and gold ornaments of every descrip-
ton, even if their investments find
their way later to the pawnshop.'
