OPPOSE RAIL
REFUND
OF $775,55l,000
Illinois Representative Leads
Attack on Plan in House
With Backing From Hines.

Washington, Nov. 12.-Sharp op,
position developed today in the
house to the proposal embodied III
the railroad reorganization bill for
refunding to the government OF
&75,5sl,0 owed by the carriers
Attack on the plan led by Repre-
sentative Denison, republican, Ill
inois, and supported by a letter from
Director General Hines of the rail-
road administration, resulted In" final
decision being deferred.
Opponents of the refunding plan
declared it would compel congress
to- appropriate $363,355,000 by the
end of the year to square the &C
counts of the railroad administra-
ton and Mr.. Denison proposed a
substitute which he said would de-
crease the amount needed to SILL
100000.
Would Set Off $415,00o,0
Under the Denison plan it is pro-
posed that $4l5,000,000 owed by the
government. to the carriers as
standard return be set off against
the debts due to the government by
the roads. The pending Esch bill
calls for only a partial immediate
setoff Proponents of the commit
tee plan urged that proposal as a
square deal to the railroad which
were charged with debts, contracted
without their consent during the
period Of government operation.
Director General Hines described
the bills plan as an "unduly liberal
policy" He asserted that the plan
would provide working capital, not
needed by strong roads, while those
most in need of financial aid would
not receive it.. The carriers, he as
serted, would not be encouraged to
finance their needs from private
sources.
Would Fix Interest Rate.
The director general added that
congress should definitely fix the in
terest rate to be charged against the
refunded Indebtedness, pointing out
that the bill might grant rates so low
as to be unjust to the government
and suggested that the interest rate
be fixed at per cent.
The house approved several sec
tons of the bill, Including that di-
recting surrender of the lines by the
at the end of the month
in which the bill is passed and that
placing the operation of boat and
barge lines established by the rail-
road administration on the Missis-
sippi and Black Warrior rivers.

"The keynote of the hour, wheth-

is today too much of the tendency
among our people toward class en-

demand the destruction of such un-
worthy ideals.

troubles of the times simmer down
to simple se1hshness-almost every
man is out to get his regardless of
how his neighbors fare.
