STRIKES
Of RAILROAD MEN
Senate Committee Favors In
clusion of Such Plan in
Legislation.
VOTE OF ID TO l is TAKEN
Question of Disposing of Excess
Earnings Also Given
Consideration.
[Ry Associated Prcss.1

WASHINGTON. Oct. l4.-Inclusion in
the permanent railroad legislation Of 4
provision to penalizc strikes of rail-
road employees was decided upon late
today by the Senate Interstate Com,
merce Committee by vote of IA to l.
The committee did not enter into tho
details OF the antistrike legislation at
It's meeting today. the vote being mere
iy on the question of adopting the
principle OF pcnalizing railroad en-
ployees for striking. Senator Stanley
Democrat. Kentucky, cast the only op-
posing vote. declaring he did not be-
lirve antistrike provisions could be
enforced.
The committee vote was regarded as
naaiking certain inclusion in the final
somewhat similar TO the clause of the
Cummins bill. proposing fines and i'm
pTdsonment pIaSaan for concerted action of en-
eommerce. oiIl,e,,s The phraseology of the
agreed on late this week.
Distribution of Earnings.
Other, steps toward reporting out the
taken today by. the committee in de-
termining distribution of excess rail-
road earnings In accordance with a
directing the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to fix rates sufficient to insure
railroads a return OF 1-2 per cent
upon the value of their property, as
determined by the commission, plus
one-half of per cent for maintenance.
the committee. today voted on disposi-
ton OF earnings exceeding this per
cent return.
BY. a vote of 10 to S. the committee
decided that Of earnings of railroads
between s and z per cent. one-half Of
per cent may be retained by indi-
vidual carriers toward maintenance OF
the other one-half OF 1 per cent to be
transferred by the railroads to the Fed
eral transportation board. to compose
This general fund would be distributed
by the board for the maintenance or
Improvement. through loans or other
wise, of other railroads deemed worthy
Of assistance.
Provide for Retainers.
OF excess earnings of railroads over
Z per cent on net value. the committee
decided that one-fourth shall be re-
tained by the earning carriers for their
own improvement funds and three
fourths given to the boards general
fund.
Disposition OF excess earnings was
regarded IS one Of the most important
and difficult tasks in the framing OF
the bill, and has been opposed as un-
constitutional. on the ground that 1t
was beyond the power of Congress to
prescribe.
The committee also approved a pro-
vision that the individual carriers, from
excess earnings over 6 per cent. may
accumulate reserve funds up to maxi
mum of 5 per cent of their9 property
value. When this 5 per cent limit is
reached and maintained. onc-third OF
further excess earnings may be re-
.aincd by individual carriers and two
thirds must be transferred to the Fed
cral contingent fund.

STATE PRESS COMMENT.

Beatrice Express: The manner IN
which Gus Hyers and his corps OF
state agents are disposing OF that
appropriation for the enforcement
of the prohibitory law would rather
indicate that they have an abhor-
renee of such thing as E surplus.
Nebraska City Press: A Beatrice
farmer has received moro or less
publicity lately because he received
$3.50 an acre for tract Of ground
near the county seat Of Gage county.
Otoe county beats the mark estab-
lished by Gage county by recording
the sale of a tract of land near Ne
braska City the other day for $500
an acre. Next!
Hastings Tribune: A bill has been
introduced in the Nebraska legisla-
ture for the purpose of making gas
manufacturers attach to all gas pipes
something that would shut off the
gas automatically in case of fire. But
the Trainer of the bill missed his
vocation, he should have been an In
yentor and put his automatic shut-off
on the market before he introduced
his bill.
