MORE RAILROAD TALK
Communicated

President Wilson has issued his
proclamation that the Railroads of
the United States will be released
March 1st, 1920, and returned to
private ownership, and Government
Control cease; Congress is now pass
ing a law to carry the measure
through and be a law by that time.
With this proclamation issued, the
outcome of the proposed new rail
road from railroad connection in
Ellis county with the Union Pacific
to railroad connection in Barton
county, at or near Great Bend, with
the Santa Fe, connecting the two
great systems with the very shortest
possible. route from the great North
west and Pacific Ocean, with the
great southeast and the Gulf of Mex
leo, through Hutchinson, is being
watched with interest. A glance at a
Santa Fe railroad map shows very
feasible connection near Great Bend,
leading direct to Hutchinson, then a
direct Santa Fe route to the main
"KK. c. to Galveston line" at Ponca
City, and then south through Okla
homa and Texas to the gulf port at
Galveston, very close to 900 miles
from the Union Pacific Railroad con-
nection, while the route from same
connection to the sea port at New
York City via st. Louis and Kansas
City is close to 100 miles, so an i'm

car of wheat, and why the new pro-
posed route would be a money maker

and Hutchinson is just as able tc

American Legion Convention

The outstanding features of the
work of the convention of the Amer
lean Legion at Minneapolis, leave a
favorable impression upon the public
mind. The bonus question was wise
ly disposed of after sharp differences
of opinion had been fully discussed,
by referring it to Congress without
any specific recommendations or de-
mands. The best friends of the world
war veterans must feel relieved that
the convention finally showed re-
straint in this matter, and thus dulled
the edge of criticism that rapacity
was debating the policy of the new
organization. An important rule was
adopted excluding candidates for or
holders of elective and other public
Offices from places of trust and au-
thority in the Legion, and this will
help to make effective the purpose of
the founders to keep the organiza-
ton out Of politics and prevent it
from being used to promote anyone's
ambitions.-Springfeld (Mass-) Re-
publican, November IA, 1919.

suggestion, but Senator Walker insisted
that he was serious.
This question has never been definitely
settled and all the laws thus far passed in
this State and by the federal government
are in conflict on the subject" Mr.. Walker
Iasserted. Such a committee as I pro-
lposed could avail itself of scientific knowl-
edge as to what alcoholic content is really
necessary in order to bring about intoxica-
ton. With this information in its posses
sion, the Legislature would be better able
to enact legislation permitting the sale OF
lalcoholic beverages which would be non
Intoxicating.
why let this question be settled by
whim? Let us find whether science can
tell us whether there is any specific limit
of alcoholic content in a beverage before
it becomes Intoxicating"

forcement bill now before the Legislature,
declared that all the information sought
by the committee could be obtained from
