i Unless the government adopted the
policy of fixing low rates and fares with

from operations should be placed as an

operation expenses rise in relation to

pleted on this question.
From the poll the following reasons
appear for opposing government owner
ship:
Under government ownership the de-
velopment of railroad facilities would
depend on congressional appropriations,
which would prevent the anticipation of
the transportation needs of the country.
appropriations would not be made in
the amount and at the time needed to
insure adequate development of the rail-
roads. Political considerations might
also control the amount of appropria-
tons and the objects for which they
were made.
The acquire the railroads the govern
ment would have to pledge its credit for
S,000.000,000 TO $4,000, 10000 at a
time when other large financiering must
be done. 1t would be difficult for the
government to dispose of the securities
required to purchase the roads and it
would be necessary for the government
TO secure from $500,000,000 to $1,000
100000 of new capital each year If
the government We're to assume the bur-
den of financing the railroads at pres
ent its interest rate would necessarily
be as high as, if not higher than the
rate at which corporations could secure
capital.
Government operation is seldom if
ever as efficient as corporate manage
ment. Competition, the incentive to eff
ficiency and progress in private enter
prises, is absent from the government
administration of affairs Individual in,
itiative is. less, bureaucratic methods
are more characteristic and the services

While the government presumably
would select officers and employees by
means of efficiency tests, political in

Monday, was decided in favor of the

ed down yesterday afternoon.
Merlini was ordered deported as
an undesirable alien. His counsel ap-
piled for writ of habeas' corpus to
obtain his release from jail. taking
the stand that his client had not been
given proper hearing; that the evil
dence against him had, in fact, been
gathered in connection with another
case entirely foreign to the action
on which the importation proceed
ings were based. sc s
The court dismissed the writ and
remanded the defendant to the GUS

sci will appeal the case to the Eighth

Berlin, March 1S.-The diet at
Munich was opened yesterday to the
accompaniment of a strong military
display, according to a Munich dis
patch. All the. entrances to tie
building were strongly guarded and
machine guns were posted on the
roof. Militia and police were dis
tributed throughout the house.
The deputies and the newspaper
men were searched for arms before
they were allowed to enter. No one
was allowed in the galleries, except
the press gallery.
The precautions mentioned in the
foregoing dispatch were apparently
due to the fear that there might be
a repetition in the diet of the scenes
that accompanied the converting Of

shots were fired on that occasion,
killing one of the deputies and
wounding others present, including
Herr Auer, the minister of the in
