Willard Against Solutions Proposed
-FavOrs Private Ownership
With L. $. Regulation.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-Daniel
Willard, president of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad company, testi-
fed today before the senate inter
state commerce committee that eX-
perience in the war showed that
railroads under private ownership
and subject always to governmental
regulation should be authorized to
DO whatever would be done in the
public interest under government
ownership and operation or is actu-
ally being done under federal con-
troll and operation.
Mr.. Willard contended that rail
roads under private management
had not broken down during the
var, and that both private opera
ton and federal regulation, which
he said. had proved successful,
should be continued.
"It has been clearly shown. how
ever" he added, that a system of
regulation designed for peace time
conditions did not function prop
erly in time Of war, and so the gov
ernment assumed control of the
railroads and proceeded to run
them according to no restrictive
laws or regulation.
Mr.. Willard opposed government
ownership, continuation of the pres
ent until 1924, and the proposed
plan of cooperation by the four
brotherhoods. He said he believed
if the five years extension plan
we're carried out, government own
ership would be inevitable.
Discussing proposals to insure
larger returns to labor Mr.. Will
lard said he did not favor division
of excess profits with labor.
Il believe thoroughly in good
wages" he said, "and if a man does
work of unusual value he should
receive unusual reward, but the
Two should go together"

Springfield, Ill, Feb. 18.-Gover-
nor Frank o. Lowden, speaking to-
day before a point session of the
legislation on the budget for the
biennum beginning July l, next.
asked the cooperation of the gen

the finance department proposes
disbursement OF approximately $685.

over that provided by the fiftieth
general assembly.
1T is only by cooperation Of the
legislature and the executive de-
partment that the best results can
be obtained" said the governor.
We shall welcome heartily the
discovery of an item in the budget
which can be eliminated without
handicapping the operation Of the
state government"
The questions that Democratic
leaders had threatened to ask the
governor as to why lump sums"
appeared in the budget instead of
itemiZed statements, did not mater
ialize.
The Information you will receive
from the department of finance we
desire to supplement with anything
further you may desire" said Gov
ernor Lowden There is not a de-
partment which is not open to give
any information at any time. If
there is obscurity or doubt as to
whether any amounts are correct
we shall cooperate to the fullest or
our power to do So"

ance, spoke on details of the bud

of wage increases. for state en-
ployes. Mr.. Wright in reply said
there was no policy as such. but
that advances in wages to individ-
