UNIONS WANT THE U. s.
 TO RETAIN ROADS
Irrge That Federal Control Be Ex- tended Two More Years; Rea- sons are Given.

Washington, Feb 17.-Urging that federal operation of railroads be con tinued for at least an additional two years. B. M Jewell, acting president Of the Railway Employees Department of fbe American Federation of Labor, In letter to members of Congress today expressed the opinion that return or the roads to private ownership at this time would lead inevitably to their bankruptcy which might easily result in nation wide panic and in turn bring world wide bankruptcy v
 s'For two years traffic has been short routed" MT. Jewell said, "It has been sent over selected routes. A great part of the mileage of the country IS not earning operating expenses ana fixed charges"
 The letter was. signed by the heads of the IA railroad unions, including the four big brotherhoods, who have been acting as unit in urging own ership by the government of the rail- system and continuation of govern ment control as an alternative. Calling attention to the colossal savings, economies and efticiencies under federal operation the letter said reversion to private ownership would mean "an increase in rates from 25 to 50 per cent, an addition of $1 100000 a year." Among the score of reasons were:
 Reasons Are Given. According to the report of the di- rector general the railroads operated as a unified system are on paying | basis "or are in Q fair way to earn all charges against them, and possi- bly to accumulate a surplus" Validction of watered securities alleged to be the main abject of those seeking return, would mean the sub- sidizing of the railroad industry. The Cummings-Es bill with its guarantee of earnings is an invita- tion to waste and extravaganza. Return of the railroads is an invi- tation to still further industrial dis turbances, which are born of labor shortage on one hand and the high cost of living on the other"
 The letter also says:
 Under federal operation the South Ports, harbors, terminals and shipping lines have been stimulated from the Ria Grand to Bantimore." but return to the preferential treatment of New York Twill kill Southern shipping, Southern industry"
 Water transportation can never be developed with the railroads in pri- vate hands.
 "A number of vital interest" the letter concludes, 'is the enlisting of the employees so that they will work tremendously, willingly and efficiently It is a colossal waste to exclude from railway operation the contributions of 2,OOO,OO0 men with lifelong experience in the railway industry

lived in Iuka, but moved to Corinth
about thirty-.hree years ago. How
ever. he is well known all over the
county and highly esteemed.
Since he has been a member of
Congress many important measures
have become law for which he cast
his vote. When he was elected to
Congress there were no Rural De-
livery Routes in this district not a
single free mail delivery and no
agricultural work being done by the
government.
Among the great measures that
have become of laws and are of so
much benefit to the people and that
have been adopted since Mr.. Cand.
Ter has been member of the House
are the Federal Farm Loan Ae.
and the Federal Reserve system.
When he was elected we had
practically no merchant marine
ad we only carried seven per cent
of our commerce, now we carry
largely our own products which
greatly benefit our ia 'mtrs an
D ouu, ers. Only about $3,000,0O0
per year was appropriated for ayr
cultural development in the United
States, last year over 33,C0O,00G
was appropriated. There was
appropriations for good roads -,
the government is spending ,;,,;on

Do you realize how important the
School Teachers Of the State are
TO you and your children?
Do you appreciate the fact that
the future welfare of your children
a. coming citizens, charged with
the responsibility of public affairs,
rest largely with the Teachers?
Now, unless the salaries and
general living conditions Of the
Teachers Of the State are mat srially
improved, and that very soon. we
are going TO lose great numbers Of
them who are gong to seek other
lines OF employment.
This would greatly impair our
entire school system in the state.
II is, therefore, up to You as
school patrons to get behind the
movement for the improvement Of
the conditions of the teachers.
Urge the tea shers to Join the
State Teachers Association and
send in their dues Of $1.00 to Prof

They need a strong organization
to look after their we fare and press

As many as cam should attend

whether or not they attend congen-
ton all teachers should be affili-
ated With the Teachers Association.
Urge them 70 act in the matter.

HELEN STANLEY HERE TONIGHT BROUGHT BY MUSICAL EVENTS CLUB

Helen Stanley. operatic soprano who appears tonight in Phoenix as a feature number of the Musical Events club course. is one of the few prima donnas who has sung the three roles of OlyIn- pia, Julietta and Antonia in '"The Tales of Hoffmann" at one performance. The scoprano performed this feat when she was a member Of the opera company in Wurtzberg, Germany. Ordinarily the three roles are Sung by different so- pranos. as they are widely different. The German papers were enthusiastic in their praise of Miss Stanley's skill in meeting the vocal and dramatic re- Quirements of the three roles.
 In recent years Miss Stanley had added many new roles to her repertoire. She was particularly successful in Marta of the Lowlands," which was produced at the Century opera house in New York in English. She had sung the role in the German production in Wurtzberg. but had to reIearn it in its entirety in order to sing 1t in English In "Thais." which Miss Stanley sang with the Montreal Opera company. she charmed by her lovely art and appear ance and she scored similarly as the melodramatic "Tosca" with the Chicago Opera company. Her success as Ma nella" in -The Jewels of the Madonna" with the Boston Opera company was also pronounced.
 When it comes to the standard rep ertofre, Miss Stanley sings a wide va riety of roles. She is a beautiful ex- ponent of the youthful Wagnerian herofnes, Elsa in "Lohengrin," being especially suited to her pure voice and type of beauty, while she also sings Eva in Die Meistersfnger," Elizabeth in "Tannhauser," and Senta in ''The Flying Dutchman." One of her fla vorite roles is Natoma fin Victor Her bert's English opera

All that section OF Northwest
stock in the primary centers of the
world. and II Is believed that there
are at least 100000 foreign hides
in New York warehouses alone. So
many orders for both shoes and
leather have recently been can
celled that there is little incentive
for buyers to operate in raw ma
terial with any degree of freedom.
Primary Dry Goods Markets Quiet.
The quietness of primary dry
goods markets remains unbroken,
and activity in retail channels,
where II appears, results chiefly
from forced sales at price reduc-
tions. The continuation of financial
pressure is being broadly felt in the
trade, where liquidation has been in
progress for a considerable period,
and both silk and wooden mills are
appreciably curtailing output. With
production costs abnormally high,
manufacturers do not care to run
the risk of piling up supplies for
which they have no orders, and
which might have to be sold at
lower prices. While many goods
are wanted today, jobbers are timid
about operating at present price
levels, being uncertain az to, whether
retailers are going to take all the
merchandise they have on order, and
the factor of providing capital for
future payments Is one which is en-
tering largely into calculations.
Meantime, imports of textiles con-
tinue sizable. while export demand
Is affected by financial conditions.

Cotton Crop Generally Backward.
That the cotton crop is generally
backward, with an abnormally low
condition, was demonstrated by last
weeks official statement; and fur
ther evidence of this appears in
special survey of the situation made
through correspondents of this jour-
nal. With unusually adverse wealth
er over most of the belt early in
the season, planting operations were
considerably impeded, and the prog
ress or the crop, after Ii had been
put In the ground. was very widely
retarded. The size of the acreage,
moreover, has been limited by the
unfavorable weather, and by labor
shortage, and curtailment of as
much as Is per cent in the area un-
der cultivation is reported in some
localities. Yet increases in other
sections partly or fully offset the re-
auctions. and 1t Is encouraging that
recent weather developments have
reen more conclusive to crop devel-
opment. While IL Is to be regretted
tnat the season has made a poor be-
ginning. At Is still too early to talk
