LOSSES
INCREASING WITH
GREAT RAPIDITY
Democratic Direction OF
Carriers Is Costing
People Millions

WASHINGTON, July 25-Thc de-
fcit of the railroads Of the country
under the Railroad Administration
continues to grow. This is shown
in the latest report of Director Cen
eral Hines for the month of May and
for the five months ending May 31st.
The net loss to the Government for
the month of May was $35,511 $50.
Comparing the five months ending
May 31st, 1919, and the same period
ending May Dist, 1918, the net op-
Grating revenues show a falling off of
$108, 661 ,949.
In the meantime a further increase
in rates is contemplated by the Rail
road Administration and definite
step in that direction is looked for
at any time by those who are follow
ing the railroad situation closely. 1t
is obvious that the rates must either
be raised in view of the manner in
which the roads are running behind
under the present administration or
Congress must make big appropria-
ton to meet the deficit. Shippers

is and likewise of slow and made
suate freight service.
| While it has been apparent since
last winter that Congress would not
extend railroad control by the Rail
road Administration for five years as
demanded by the President, Chairman
Esci of the House Interstate Com
mcrce Committee has taken occasion
TO set this proposition still moro de-
fnitely at rest. He said that in view
of the sentiment throughout the
country on the question of Govern
ment ownership it would be useless
to consider the five year extension
of government control.

Colonel Odds (Red Cross Commits
sioncr for Europe) this morning that
was more than pleased with what
| had heard in reference to the gar
mcnts we have sent over, but nothing
comes up to the layettes. Wherever
| have been, they have showered upon
US compliments as to the blessings
they are. If only people would
realize what it means to these poor
souls over here, they would work
harder than they have ever worked
before to make sure that our quota
is finished before the committee in
Northern France have to withdraw"
One hundred layettes of the 10000
assigned to New England, were sent
to the st. Johnsbury branch a month
ago, As have been taken out and
some have been completed. We eX
pect there will be a run on the Ar

Adaptability works toward content
ment; to fit ourselves willingly and
cheerfully into the changed conditions
that exist today in countless homes
throughout this broad land means the
lifting of another heavy burden from
the heads of the households. Many
things in our way of living which we
would have once called essentials we
now regard as useless, taxing our time
and resources. And yet we. can live
fully, pleasantly, even more smoothly
than in other days-EXchange.
