the shot that fell like hail. 1T was

Swift, as the case may be-" and my
brave command plowed up the land
in support Of Battery d. And from
over the hill, when all was still, came
the Boche at double quick, and
thought for the nonce that gone was
my sconce till my sergeant saved the
trick With a hand grenade and
bomb, home made. he hid by a shat
tered tree as the crafty Huns all
trained their guns on the boys Of Bat
terry d. Then over the top on darn
ed fast hop came the rest Of the
shouting horde, and snorting tanks
on both our TANKS came near to hav-
ing us fioored. when Sergeant f. from
behind that tree let loose his hand
grenade, and the tanks stopped short
and ceased to snort and pause In
the dash was made. With great
aplomb he loosed hts bomb and the
slaughter was good TO see as the Ger
man hounds into bits were ground by
that blast Of TINT. And I'm pleased
to tell we gave them he'll that day in
BeIleau Wood, and all Of yea. If you

1T would be well for American IN

1t is claimed that the small entrance

A few years from now the average

The average term Of employment in

exceeds one year. This shows conclu-
sively that government employment

Hines Estimates Loss for
April at $50, 900, 600 as
Result Of Less Business
and Mounting Expenses
No Rate Increase Planned
Disturbed Economic State
Offers No Safe Basis of
Judgment, Director SAYS

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Director
General Hines estimated to-day that
the railroad administration incurred a
dehcit of approximately $4,000, 900 in
April, making a total deficit of $3.50
100000 for the first four months of the
year.
In an advance summary of railroad
earnings for April, issued in Washing
ton Wednesday, the deficit for that
month was placed at Sal ,146 900, and
the deficit for the first four months
of the year at S174,413,0 900
The Director General reiterated
however his previously expressed
judgment that present economic CON
ditions were too unsettled 10 afford a
safe basis for decision as to the neces-
sty for increased rates to offset the
difference between income and operat
ing cost. For the present there vii!
be TO raise, he added the Administra-
ton conHning itself to practicing every
possible economy.
The net operating income for April
was about s26,oOo00o. as compared
with S71 600, 900 for April last wear. and
an average of SCI ,1O2 ,6s1 for April dur
ing the three-year test period, on which
the compensation to the roads is based
in April Mr.. Hines said, "as II
January, February and March this un.
favorable showing was due in large
part TO the falling off of business. i
was also due in part to the heavy in.
creases in wages and cost of materials
The Railroad Administration is not un
like other industrial undertakings il
the Increases in wages and costs OF
materials, but is unlike these Other
enterprises in that the latter have
made high corresponding increases il
the prices Of what they sell, while
the Railroad Administration has made
an increase in transportation rates O.
only 25 per cent, which is a far less
percentage than the increase in wage.
and cost of materials.'

Forced Merger Urged
On Ne.u England Lines
Hines Says That Roads Can't
Sustain Themselves y ifl,out
This Plan 4 4}ter Their Return

BOSTON, June 6.-Walker D. Hines.
Director General Of Railroads, in an
address before the Chamber of Com
merce tonight said that upon the re-
turn of the railroads to private owner
ship many of the New England roads
would be unable to sustain themselves
AS individual properties, and advised
that plan of compulsory consolida
tlon be put into effect
1T would be impractical he said
for the New England roads to attempt
to continue as individual properties.
Throughout the nation there should be
esta biished numb of big competing
sysems, into which the different roads
should be merged.'
Mr. Hines said he thought it would
be unwise to return the roads to pri-
vate ownership before the end of the
year, as many might be forced into
bankruptcy and freight rates would be
advanced
