The bill was referred to the senate judi ciary committee.

 when MT. Faulk of Geneva county asked for the abolishment of the county boards the duties being transacted by the county commissioners or boards of revenue.
 It has been known many days that there would develop a strong fight against the boards of equalization in the counties but the bill of Senator Brown to abolish the office held by Thomas w.. Sims and others came as surprise Other senate bills follow: Senator Brown:, Amend the pension law, making the amount of all veterans of the civil war pensions S30 per quarter for the period of their life.

ID ASK CONGRESS
 FOR HALF BILLION
 TOL0AN RAILROADS
Most of Original Appropria- tion Spent on Improve ments and Purchase
 of Equipment
By Associated. Pres.


 Washington, January 15.--An-
 other appropriation of $5OO,0OO.0OO
 or more will be asked of Congress
 soon by Director General Hines
 for the railroad administrations - revolving fund to be used mainly
 in extending loans to railroads to
 cover the extensive programme of
 improvements and extensions for
 which more than a billion dollars
 probably will be spent this year.
 Most of the $500, 100000 origi- nally appropriated for the revolving fund was spent in financing improve ments or purchase of equipment last year Loans generally are to be made at per cent and will be repaid to the government.
 MT Hines. in a statement today. said that the railroad administrations func- tion of financing necessary improve ments, as differentiated from the func- ton of the current operation of rail- roads. s'is the reason which will re- quire an early request for a large ap- propriation." He explained that capital expenditures of railroads in 1918 and 1919 for extensions of lines new build- ings, bridges, cars, locomotives and similar purposes. are calculated at about s1,627, 100000, including $35o.- 00O,0 estimated as necessary in 1919. and $1.227 100000 authorized for 1918. Of the authorized capital expenditures budgets last year, only 5000 900 was actually used, and s6s9 1000, 900 remained to be spent in 1919. This means that the railroad administrators programme for railroad extensions and betterments in 1919 calls for outlay of $1 ,039, 900, 900 or three times as much as was spent by all railroads annually for several years before the war.
 DIFFICULTY EXPECTED In view of the approaching fifth Lib erty Loan campaign officials believe railroads would have considerable diff ficulty floating publicly sufficient se- curities to pay for improvements which the roads and the railroad administra- tion consider advisable to bring the lines up to high state of efficiency. For this reason. Director General Hines advocates continuance of the policy of government assistance. re- gardless of whether Congress extends the period of federal control Referring to the contemplated capi- tai expenditures for 1919. MT. Hines said:
 While a substantial part of this total may not actually be expended during the calendar year 1919. it is apparent that it will be necessary dur ing the year for the government and | the railroad companies to provide in the aggregate very large amount of money for careful analysis of tho situation is on the point of being com pleted with view to preparing an es- | innate for Congress for the necessary appropriation to meet this situation l While it is impossible at present to ! make estimate of how large an ad- 1 ditional appropriation will be needed it is possible that it may exceed $5oo.- l 900, 00O."
