stability and no increase in freight
rates are assured if the railroads are
continued under Federal administers

railroads are returned to private
operation. under the conditions OF
every bill now pending freight rates
will have to be increased at least 25
per cent, and some railroad authorities
place the necessary freight increase as
high as SO per cent. That means the
ultimate consumer would have to pay
from $3,000,000,000 to $4,000, 900 ,00O
additional every year for what he uses

TO return the railroads to private

Music
Miss Creta Torpadie Heard at
Concert of Svea Singing So.
ciety at Aeolian Hall

After listening to the depressing me-
diocrity of several half-baked young
singers, cheerfully pitchforked upon
the stage during this early autumn
season st was pleasure to contem-
plate the finished work of Miss Greta
Torpadie, who, with Joel Mossberg
barytone, was soloist at the concert
given by the Svea Singing Society in
Aeolian Hall last evening.
Of course, Miss Torpadie is no new
conner, but each year she has some
thing more to say, and she says it Sc
modestly and with such delicate dis
tinction that were it not for the ap-
palling contrast presented by some of
her contemporaries her superlative
ability might too easily be overlooked
On excellent terms with a rather light
soprano voice, sne makes the best of
somewhat limited vocal resources, and
with a serviccabie technique combines
intelligence, imagination and charm
as an interpreter. In fact, Miss Tor
padie is one of the few arguments
against the general belief that recit-
ais by young singers are mournful af-
fairs.
The songs sung by her, by Mr.. Moss
berg, we'll scnooied barytone, and by
the chorus we're interesting as exam
Piles Of Scandinavian music. The
string section from the Scandinavian
Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Ole
Windingstad, added to the pleasure of
the evening with pieces by Grieg and
Hallen.

Heifetz Gives His First
Recital of the Season

Jascha Heifetz has never appeared
more completely himself than he did
yesterday afternoon at Carnegie Hall.
Taken for what he is, he knows no
equal. In technical perfection, regard
for line breadth and mobility of style
he is supreme, and if the gods have
not yet given hirn warmth and pas
sion that they have vouchsafed to some
others it may we'll be because they bide
their time. 1t is to be hoped that Mr..
Heifetz will not force this note before
it comes to him without effort for to-
day he gives US something given by no
other violinist, and in a struggle to
gain what is not yet ours by right there
is ever danger in losing what we have.
Mr.. Heifetz opened yesterday with
the Cesar Franck A major sonata, play
ing it with a rare nobility of style.
The purity and firmness of his tone,
the breadth and elasticity of his bow
ing, the perfection of his finger work
go without saying, and if there were
some who found somethin" missing
in the deeper beauties of the work,
it was yet a reading of fine and re-
strained dignity. The Bruch Fan
taisie," which followed. was of course
child's play compared with the Franck
sonata, but Mr.. Heifetz gave it fol
all it was worth.
The latter half Of the program was
somewhat of descent, with a dance
of Dvorak, a Moto Perpetuo Of Cecil
Burleigh, Legende of Godowsky, and
short numbers by Wieniawski, Rach-
maninoff, Fiocco, and Paganini. Yet
all Mr. Heifetz gave con amore.
Samuel Chotzinoff played admirable
accompaniments. The audience filled
the auditorium and was banked deep
upon the stage.

City Court. There are two Supreme
Court justices to be elected his year
in New York County, and this means
that those who indorse Justice New
burger have an opportunity to vote
for another justice II +he Supreme
Court, and I not only heartily indorse
Justice Newburger's candidacy but also
that Of Philip j. McCook"
"The be,t way to rebuke Charles F..
Murphy's impudent attack on the in
dependence of the judiciary is to de-
feat his personal candidate for Surro-
gate" said Louis W. Fehr, campaign
manager for James OMalley, Republi-
can candidate for Surrogate of New
York County. THE little clique at
Fourteenth Street is spending many
thousands of dollars to confuse The
issue. Murphy's greedy eyes have long
been fixed on the surrogates' bench.
The rich patronage OF that court ex-
ceeds tn 1T of the entire Supreme Court
in New York and Bronx counties.
"The defeat of the other judicial
candidates would not jar Murphy's
grip on the Democratic organization.
But the defeat of is son-in-law for
Surrogate would not only be rebuke
to his deep laid schemes but would
be personal rebuke which would
shake his grip on the organization"

Inquiry Into Packers
Methods to Begin Here
Investigator Returns From Chi
cago to Study Situation for
Grand Tury Case

CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-It is reported
that Isadore j. Kresel, Of New York,
assistant to the Attorney General, who
with several assistants has been in Chi
cago conducting an investigation into
the meat packing industry, has re-
turned to New York to conduct SIM
liar investigation there.
Mr.. Kresel and his aids have been
here some time investigating the pack
ing industry in connection with the
grand jury proceedings.
United ASates District Attorney
Charles F. Clyne denied rumors that
the Federal government had decided to
drop the investigation Of the packers
started by Mr.. Kresel. Following the
investigation Mr.. Kresel expects o
make in New York, the grand jury in
Chicago will consider the case of the
packers, it was reported at the Fed

Baker Wants L. S.
To Supply Funds
To Amuse Troops
Welfare Work Is Declared
Duty of Government, Not
Private Organizations; {;
New Program Is Outlined
New York Tribune
WushinUtOn Bureau

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-I do not
believe the army has a right to throw
itself on the benevolence of the coun-
try and allow others to appeal for
funds to do for the soldiers things
which the government itself ought to
do" Secretary Of War Baker to-day
declared in responding to numerous
inquiries seeking the War Depart
nent's reason for taking over, on No
vember /, the recreational work per-
formed by civilian organizations dur
ing the war.
"None of the welfare agencies can
continue this work unless subscrip-
tions are made in response to appeals"
he added. "The social conscience has
been sufficiently quickeneG by the
the army to realize that it is proper
function for the government itself to
perform, and if the Congress were to
decline to make appropriations for this
purpose, public sentiment would resent
the matter being left to the casual
benevolence of persons appealed to
by semi-private agencies.
New Ideals Are Formed
"The final argument is this: The
new army IS to be an army in which
the relations between the men and
the officers are to be upon a broad and
high democratic plane. The officer of
the new army must be a man who is
able to get efficiency from a military
point of view out of his command, but
he must get out of himself, in addition
human quality which can only be
born of an interest in the actual WEI
fare of the men under him.
For that reason, part of the army
plan, which officers will be required tC
know and work with, ought to interest
| itself with the leisure hour occupations
OF the soldier. BY supervising and par
social opportunities of the soldier the
officer will lose none of his dignity
and none of his influence, but will gan,
a great degree Of the affectionate re-
gard and respect which are essential
to sound relationship between the
officers and the ranks.
Would Improve Morale
"The men, on the other hand, will
feel with regard to their officers, not
that they are merely their task mas.
ters from whom they draw commands
TOR duty performance, but that they arc
also their leaders in social and recrea
tional activities.
by this process they will come te
feel for their officers the regard which
the. college man gives to the robus
ana vlrlle professor, who teaches Greel
from $3.50 to 10:3O, but is able t.
coach the football team in the after
noon or at least knows enough abou
the game to show his sympathy witt
that side OF the college students life.

New Prison System
Called SOcialistic
By Judge Wadhams
Meeting at Home of Adolph
LewisOhn Condemns Pub
lie Account Plan Approved
by National Congress

Gwen if we go to the extent of try
ing state socialism or syndicalism in
this country, the last place to begin
it is in our prisons" said Judge Will
lam H. Wadhams, of the Court of
General Sessions, in a plea for rejec-
tion of the so-called public account
system of prison labor before $50 mem
bers of the National Committee on
Prisons and Prison Labor at the home
of Adolph Lewisohn, 881 Fifth Ave-
nue., yesterday afternoon.
The meeting was an aftermath of
the annual congress of the American
Prison Association, which has been
in session in this cit, and many Of it's
members were present. 1t was called
as a protest against the report Of the
prison labor committee Of the congress
favor of the public account system, un-
der which goods manufactured by pris-
oners are sold to private organizations
Mr.. Lewisohn dissented from the opin-
ION, resigned from the committee and
called the meeting at his home to dis
cuss the matter.
Judge Wadhams asserted the chief
objections to the public account sys-
tenn to be: First, that it exploits la
DOT; SecOnd, tnaC IL produces great 0p-
portunity for graft among prison of
ficials; third, that it results in unfair
competition with free labor. He up
held what is termed the state use sys-
tenn Of prison labor, under which New
York and others states now are oper-
ating. 1t provides for the use Of all
prison made goods by state, city and
county institutions and departments
which experience has shown provides
an ample outlet.
At the end of the meeting Mr.. Levi
sohn announced the award Of medals
for distinguished service in the cause
OF prison reform to President Wilson
Samuel Gompers, Lieutenant Com.
r a"per Thomas Mott Osborne, William
E. Rappard, president Of the Interna-
t nai Red Cross at Geneva, Switzer-
land, and Dwight W. Morrow. The
award to the President was made fol-
his action September ID, 1918, in issu.
ing an order establishing the principle
of pa ment of wages to prisoners en-
ployed on work for the government
Samuel Gompers was honored for es.
tabishing prison labor as an interna.
tional labor problem, and Commander
Osborne for application of the principle
Of self government at the Portsmouth
naval p.ison.
