The combination Of the colonial and

The Dutch colonial has the beauty of
the colonial, without its plainness !;
the sloping Dutch roof, with the wide
dormers, makes possible an economical
use Of the space within the four walls.
And one point about the Dutch co
lOnial is that it may be small house.

Dutch colonial house that is only 80

the sun parlor, and contains only seven

pearance of a large home
The colonial effect in the exterior
Of this house Is secured by placing
the door in the center and preserv-
Ing the balance with duplicate sets of
windows on either side. The porch
at the entrance Is patterned after the
old homes of New England, having
only slight roof projection, which is
supported by round columns. The
slope of the roof and the wide dor
mers, in which the window balance
is maintained, denote the Dutch.

Deputy Grain Inspector Wants
His Department Separated

J. A. McGovern, deputy state grain
inspector, is here lobbying for an
amendment in the North Dakota grain
inspection law which will remove the
supervision of this department from
the state railway commission and
place the inspection bureau under the
control of the state grain department
at Fargo, with DR.. E. F. Ladd, presi-
dent of the state agricultural college,
state chemist and state grain inspect
or, as the sole head of the service.
Deputy McGovern does not believe that
divided authority works for the sue
cess of the inspection department. A
similar effort to amend the law was
made at the special session in 1918.
but it was defeated. :.
Deputy McGovern is also advocating
the creation of state inspector of
weights and measures, with the adOp-
tion of a state schedule of standards.
The inspection of weights and meas
ures now is left in the hands of the
sheriff in each county, says Mr.. Nc
Govern, and he does not believe the
work is being done so efficiently as it
could be through an expert state in

ENDORSE THE COMMISSION
Recommendations Follow Those
Made by Interstate
Board

Washington. Jan. "a cemprphen-
sivc program Of private ownership OF
railways before strict government
supervision was laid before congress
today by T. Dewitt Tyler, chairman
Of the railway executives association,
representing all leading systems ii'
the state. The plan contemplates
merging systems, pooling facilities and
enforcing adequate service under the
supervision of superintendent OF
transportation. new cabinet officer
with the interstate commerce COM
mission acting as supreme court OF
review of rate disputes. Matters which
could not be adjusted by the inter-
state commerce commission would be
referred before an adjustment board,
and strikes and lOck-Outs would be
abolished. The executives, object to
director General McAdoo's proposal
for a five years. extension of govern
ment control. Their, recommenda-
tions are similar to those Of the inter-
state commerce commission presented
to congress early this week.
Adequate Service
Mr.. Tyler said provision must be
made for adequate service; for con-
solidation when dictated by public in
terest, and "for a rate structure which
will provide sufficient revenue and
create sufficient credit to accomplish
these purposes. To this end private
ownership should rs a matter Of ma
tional policy be continued"
Board powers should be granted the
secretary of transportation, said Mr..
Tyler. These would include author
ity to reroute traffic to avoid cOnges-
tion; to require roads to distribute
cars among patrons fairly, and to
other roads to provide for proper
movement of traffic. Mergers or con-
solicitations, inter-company agreements
on rates or practices; pooling of ia
cilities and elimination of unnecessary
train service should be subject to his
approval, according to the executives
program. The interstate commerce
commission would receive appeals in
cases of dispute between the rail
ways and the secretary of traspOr-
tation.
