New Director General Will Ad-
vocate Five Year Control
of Railroads.
HE SAYS sM'ADOO'S POLL
CIES AR MY POLICIES.'
He Proposes to Carry Out Plans
Through Existing Railroad
Organization.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE policies
OF Walker D. Hines. newly appointed
Director General of Railroads. will be
advocacy of a five year continuation
of government control or early relln-
quishment Of the roads to private
control unless congress promptly en-
acts remedial legislation.
"Mr. McAdoo's policies are my poll
cies and I intend to carry them out
through the existing railroad organ
ization," he telegraphed today to re-
gional directors, Immediately after
announcement of his appointment,
which was made by President Wilson
by cable and on recommendation OF
Mr.. McAdo. The new director gen
eral declared for a square deal to
labor" fair treatment Of railway
owners and patrons and closer under
standing between the public and the
government on railroad questions.
Before the senate interstate COM
merce committee. which is conducting
hearings on railroad legislation. Mr..
Hines prob..bly next week will make
an effort to show the governments
difficulties in supervising the rail-
ways with the contro! period limited
to twenty-one months. AS assistant
director general he advised Mr.. Nc
Adoo during the formation Of the
recommendation for flve-yeaTs extern
sion Of federal management. and
many other policies Of the railroad ad-
ministration have been based on his
Z 1n3 &c
Mr. McAdoo's principal assistant i'm
mediately after the government took
charge Of the railways a year ago.
Mr. Hines first official act today
was to delegate the railroad admin
;strat;on's case In the New York Ma
rine Workers s.rike to the war Ia
Dor board for settlement. IN a state
ment ne pledged himself to "a square
deal for labor with not only ungrudg-
ing but sincere and cordial recog-
milton of its partnership in the rail-
road enterprise"
Later he discussed his policies with
callers The idea Of combining the
several hundred private lines into
few federal concerns has been con-
sidered by Iir. Hines, but he said the
questions relating to that subject
were so numerous and perplexing it
was confusing to try even to list them.
He believes, however, it will be an
advantage to have the railroad prob
lem discussed during tie next presi-
dental campaign, basing this on the
feeling that sentiment Of the nation
is not sufficiently crystalized to per
NIT congress to enact legislation that
would be satisfactory.
The director general said he fav-
ored di:cussion and testing Of fed
eral control over period that would
give neec .d information TO the
country after which congress would be
able TO act with greater safety While
he advocated immediate return Of the
railroads to their cwccrs # the en-
tension is not granted, Mr.. Hines
pointed to the possible labor difficult
ties and financial problems of the
roads as argued upon against this

South Doing Her Part
Much Enthusiasm Displayed by
People Throughout Southern

Special To The Daily Item.

Special 10 Ihe Daily Item.
Atlanta, Jan. 13.-Early reports
reaching the Southern division head
quarters of the Armenian and Syrian
relief campaign indicates that great
outpouring of funds is taking place
throughout the nation and that the
Southern States. as usual, are nobly
doing their part in the contribution
Of funds for this particular cause as
they have done in all other appeals 20
the American people for relief.
The population Of Atlanta has been
awakened to the acuteness OF the sit
uation in Syria as q result OF cable
grams received laat week by number
of Atlanta citizens telling OF the
death of relatives and friends in that
stricken country. One Atlanta mer-
chant was notified Of the death OF hes
father and nineteen members OF his
family from starvation. The proprie-
tor Of ten cent store in Atlanta was
notified of the death OF his wife ana
five children and a cousin.
All over the South notifications are
coming to Arnenians and Syrians tell
ing of the death ol relatives and
close friends.
The nationwide dive for funds to
relieve these suffering people is
unique in that every dollar subscrib-
ed will go to the rc!lnt.
The expenses Of the campaign is be-
ing paid by private contributions. The
campaign has the enthusiastic en-
Herbert Hoover. food administrator.
1t is hoped that The subscriptions
throughout the nation will largely ex-
ceed 1he thirty million which is being
asked
