Sulzer Speaks Three Hours

SEATTLE, Wash. Jan. IA special despatch to the P. l. says that Sulzer spoke for three hours today in order to finish his argu- ment; Wickersham' side was then to have been heard. Sulzer ap- peared to have been more concerned in protecting the sanctity of the Australian ballot than in retaining his seat in Congress.
 His entire speech explained the Indian vote, and in stating the facts regarding the matter clearly, he al most charged some of the precinct election officers with conspiring to defeat him.
 Sulzer's speech held more mem- bers than have sat through an en- tire days session in several weeks.
 Several leading Democrats who are championing the cause of Sul- zed, will speak in support of him today.
 Originally, the House had decided unanimously to grant one hour to each side for the debate on the re- port of the Elections committee, but at the end of the allotted hour Sul- ger was till talking, and so Chair man Wilson of the Elections com mittee obtained the unanimous con sent of the House to let him finish.
 Congressman J. R. Mann (Repub- lican) of Illinois, told the House that there were four other members who wished to speak on the same subject.

FEDERAL CONTROL 0F RAILROADS IS
 VERY DESIRABLE
Federal Reforms On Railroads Desirable As Permanent Peace
 Measure, Says McAddo.
Associated PreSS)


 WASHINGTON, D. c. Jan. A. William Gibbs McAdoo, former sec retary of the treasury and director general of railroads, testifying be- fore the Senate Interstate Com merce committee today, related in detail the accomplishments of the railroads under federal control.
 He argued strongly for a con- tinuance, for five years, of govern ment operation of the railroads in order that fair test may be pro- vided of unified direction.
 McAdoo said that he believed that under war conditions, sufficient showing has been made to indicate that all of the reforms made by the government, in all branches of the railroad service, are desirable and thought that these reforms should remain in full force as per manent peace measures.
 In concluding his remarks, the former secretary said that the pub lie should be given an opportunity to test the efficacy of the govern. ment control of the railroads dur. ing time of peace, and again argued for the five year continuance ot government control.

 Geo. W. Pennington, representa- tive of the Commercial club on the Board of Public Works and Chari- ties, asked to be relieved, explain ing that he expected soon to leave for the coast to attend the session of the territorial legislature His resignation was accepted and w. II. Gilcher named as his successor on the board.
 There was some discussion regard ing road needs of the district, and the secretary was instructed to write to the Alaska Road commission and to the territorial road commission, outlining the requirements of min ing districts adjacent to Nenana, and requesting consideration in the ap- portionment of funds for the com ing year.
 Applications for membership in the club were received from Roy Blair, Frank Jones, Chas Smith and Mike Hyland and, upon motion, the applicants were duly enrolled as members.
 | The club voted to pay the cost of bringing a special Christmas mail to Nenana, less the amount allowed for same by the postoffice. The balance due was $17.S0
 W. H, Gilcher, on behalf of the committee appointed to interview F. D. Browne with regard to the cost of electric current to the large consumers of Nenana, reported that the committee had gone into the matter thoroughly with MT. Browne and had been assured that it would be impossible for the Commission to grant reduction at this time. MT. Browne had suggested, how ever, that the use of coal might make it possible later to readjust the rates The committee was asked to continue to serve the club, pend- ing developments at the power house.
 Dr. Bowen reported for the smoker committee, stating that everything would be ready for the affair, now scheduled to take place on Satur- day night, January II.
 With regard to the proposed pros pectors' convention, suggested by Dr. Bowen at a previous meeting, the doctor reported that he was busily engaged in working out a definite plan for the affair and hoped to be able, at an early date, to submit his proposition to the club for further consideration. The plan, as outlined by Dr. Bowen, is to in- vite prospectors and mining men of all nearby districts to attend gen eral convention and carnival, to be arranged by the Commercial club. It is further proposed to invite Out side dealers in mining supplies to send representatives to the conven- tion and to arrange to have one or two mining engineers make the trip North to investigate properties rep. resented at the convention and to offer solutions to some of the prob lems now confronting prospectors and mining men in the nearby dis tricts. Dr. Bowen believes that it will be possible, by means of two or three day carnival, to finance the convention and pay all costs in- cident thereto. And he points out that such gathering not only would be helpful to those engaged in min- i ing and n the search fol gold and other minerals, but also would be

The Nenana daily news., 1919-01-04

The Nenana Commercial club has gone on record with an indorsement of the Alaskan Engineering commis- soin and the work accomplished by those in charge of railroad con- struction in Interior Alaska This action was taken at the regular weekly meeting of the club last evening to frustrate, if possible, any attempt that may be made, as sug gested in a Seattle report appearing in the News yesterday, to turn the railroad building over to private contractors for completion. While it is not konwn locally to what ex- tent the interior department has negotiated with private contractors for the completion of the work, the Commercial club intends that Sec retary Lane and every other official at Washington shall know that Alas kans appreciate the difficulties of are entirely satisfied with the prog ress that is being made under the direction of the Alaskan Engineer ing commission. The club wants the secretary to know too that any change in building plans at this juncture would be a serious blow to the whole Interior country and would be regarded as bad faith on the part of the government.
 Members of the club do not be- lieve that it is the intention of the interior department to restrict the activities of the Alaskan Engin- eering commission, but the reports received from Seattle appear to in- dicate that there is agitation in favor of turning the work over to contractors and the club has deemed it advisable to go on record as fav- | bring a continuance of the present manner of construction, under the direct supervision of representatives of the government.
 A committee consisting of Geo. w. Pennington, Dr. J. R. Bowen, H. B. Joseph and R. G. Southworth was appointed to advise Secretary Lane of the action taken by the club, and to give general publicity to the atti- tude of Nenanaites toward the Alaskan Engineering commission. This committee met today and for warded the following telegram to Secretary Lane:
 Nenana, Alaska, Jan. 4, 1919 Honorable Franklin K. Lane,
 Secretary of the Interior,
 Washington, D. c.
 Referring to newspaper reports from Seattle contractors have been asked to bid on completion of Alas kan Railroad; we wish to assert that a change in policy now means the complete disorganization of many interests in the Interior that origi- mated as the result of the declared intention for government built road and thus defeats the original purpose to immediately and directly help Interior Alaska and it's people and we unqualifiedly assert that railroad building progress here has reached satisfactory stage and that no reason exists why it should not go on as planned to it's logical con- clusion.

 The committee appointed to con- sider the slogans submitted to the club, reported that they had de- cided that J. c. Van Orsdel was en- titled to the first prize and Mir. Sil- van to the second prize. The secre- tary was instructed to award the

CLAIM FIGHT ON. INFLATED PRICES. SHOWS PROGRESS
IRepubIican A. P. Leased wire]

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Cabinet members and other high officials who have been assisting Attorney General Palmer in the fight on the cost of liv ing today held their first conference since the coal strike sidetracked all other activities.
 Reports were received by the con- ference from H. F.. Figg, special assist ant to MT. Palmer, which were said to show continued progress on keeping down prices.
 "The reports were especially gratify- ing" MT. Palmer asid. taking into consideration the fact that when we begun our campaign last summer we were at the high point of supply and low point of demand, while now we are at the low point of supply and the peak of demand. A graphic represen- tation of living costs would show a very satisfactory curve of price ranges"
 With the approval of the conference, MT. Palmer is preparing a statement summarizing the results obtained, which probably will be given out to- morrow.
 Seek to Lower Clothing Prices.
 MT. Figg, who has been in close touch with producers of wearing apparel, an- nounced today that at their suggestion a conference will be held next month which will undertake to devise means for checking the increase in clothing prices. One of the most important steps to be considered will be the pro- duction and marketing of certain fixed amount of standard, medium priced goods, as an incentive to the public to abandon the era of extrava- gance which has followed war pros perity.
 MT. Palmer said today he could not predict the immediate effect on prices of the settlement of the antitrust ac- ton against the packers.
 'The big effect of the agreed decree. he said, ''is to open the channels of business freely to all men without fear of domination by these interests."
 The court in which the agreed de- cree will be entered will not be an- nounced until the degree is filed, which will be after the holidays.
 Announcement was made today by the Southern Wholesale Grocers' asso- citation that it's complaint against a large number of railroads for alleged preferences in the way of rates and privileges to the five large packers would be dismissed from further con- sideration by the interstate commerce commission.

The Great White Way

In all sections of this CONT
nent the people are awakening tc
the advantages of proper street
illumination. Business mems as
sociations, publicity clubs and the
citizens at large are uniting in a
common effort to boost their
"home town" by the proper
lighting of the streets This
activity is not due to abstract
theory, but is the result of the
proven fact that good street
lighting is essential to the well
fare of a municipality and the re-
suits are measured in direct
financial returns. Real estate
owners find that proper street
illumination causes property
values to advance, business men
men note increased activity in
trade, and the community finds
that as "city booster" it is the
most effective way to advertise
the progressiveness and public
spirit of the municipality.
Referring to steet illumination
and its relation to police protec-
ton, one of the greatest authori-
ties on criminology that this
country has ever produced says
that he would rather have plenty
of electric lights and clean streets
than all the law and order So
cieties in existence.
Illumination of the streets at
night was formerly considered
the only function of lighting
units, but in this twentieth CEN
fury spirit of progressiveness
and economic management the
tendency is to make the lighting
units so attractive that they add
to the appearance of munich
pality by day as we'll as by night.

tertiary for the killing of Asbury Flu
