MORE PUBLICITY
 IS A NECESSITY

Ivy Lee, who handles publicity for the Rockefeller interests, said at the
 United Forum last night, that the
 directors of large corporations should be made to make a statement to the public of all their doings at all meetings. He said that he believed
 the publicity thus given would pre- vent the footing of the treasuries of the semi-pubIic corporations and would put the fear of the law in the l hearts of financial buccaneers. MT. Lees topic was the Plumb plan of railroad management. This he described as chiefly an attempt to give the railroad men the power to fix their own wages.
 MT. Lee said he believed capitalist management of the railroads was
 better than government management. The import of his remarks was that human nature could not be trusted to wisely and conscientiously run the | roads, pointing to Congressional dis bursements in the matter of river and harbor improvements, post offices and other public buildings. He explain | ed that under the Plumb plan all the | railroads in the country would be 1 managed by fifteen men appointe l by the President, railroad unions aL@ | other agencies.
 | Under this plan economy and l efficiency in the management of the | road would suffer. When the men wanted an increase of wages they i would go to their representatives on | the railroad commission and these in | turn would prevail upon the other 1 members of the commission to grant 1 it. While there is a provision ir l the Plumb plan to limit wages vel
 nothing is said about strikes, and il
 only needs an elementary Knowledge
 | of human nature to infer that 8
 strike would follow a refusal to gram
 an increase.''

MT. Lee was rather pessinistic about the railroad situation, looking at it from the capitalists point Of view He said the roads were mak- ing only about one per cent. on twen- ty billions of dollars invested. Before the war the railroads returned their owners approximately six per cent. on their investments.
 "I doubt if the railroads will ever again be a profitable business, unless the restrictions which are now thrown around them are reraoved.''

but last week it was realized that
this was not enough space to ac-
commodate all the exhibits prepar-
ed, so Mrs. Moran generously turn
ed over her whole house, which con-
tains forty rooms and twelve baths.
and now the guests are to be al
lowed upstairs and downstairs and

suites of bedrooms are to be turned

Herbert ID. Brown. Director of the
Bureau Of War Risk Insurance:
There can be no argument con-
cernirg the fact that war work i'm
proves girls in every way. Its broad
ening mental effect is reflected IN
the attractive slertness of their eX-
preston and in a constantly in
creasfng capability. There are about
ten thousand girls in this branch of
the service and I have had occasion
to observe that the average of i'm
provement is very high.
