and wounded soldiers are not receiving
the treatment guaranteed them by law"
Representative Johnson, Republican,,
South Dakota. who served in the a. e.
T.. declared today in telling the House of
his recent visits to government hospitals.
Because of ignorance or negligence, or
because of wilful disregard of the laws
by Carter Glass. Secretary Of the Treas
ury or Rupert Blue. Surgeon General of
the United States" said Representative
johnson, "sick and wounded American
soldiers are receiving treatment that can
not be justified by any one who has any
regard for the wellbeing of the men who
fought to maintain the country
Replying to Representative Garner,
Democrat. Texas. who inquired the basis
of the charges, Representative Johnson
asserted that funds to provide hospital
facilities had not been used because OF
the opposition of officials TO taking over
the Chicago Speedway Hospital. and that
because of this attitude funds for other
hospitals were not being spent
Directed ny Congress.
Representative Byrnes. Democrat, South
Carolina, interrupted to say that the pur-
chasing of the Speedway Hospital was
directed by Congress on the condition that
the hospital could be made to meet the
needs of the public health service" and
that Secretary Glass, under the legisla-
tion. could not purchase the property on
the conditions asked by the hospital con-
tractor
Representative Johnson's complaints of
the care of soldiers was centred about
Chicago hospitals
''In Chicago. on January 49," he said.
American soldiers who had been serious
ly wounded and who had been and ought
to be receiving treatment for their wounds
were requested TO leave the hospital and
discontinue treatment in order that other
men in more serious conditions might take
their beds In the hospital.
'ln these same hospitals" the South
Dakota Representative added. 'rnen who
have been gassed are quartored in dark

because Congress has performed it's duty
in appropriating the necessary funds. while
they have not performed theirs in ex-

Representative Johnson said that on last
December he saw sixty men al the Fort
Sheridan army hospital "who were not
fed and many others who could ont obtain
sufficient food" lie added that his COM
plant of this 10 Secretary Baker resulted
in an investigation, which admitted the
truth OF the complaint" and brought an

ALBANY, n Y, Tuesday.-Legislati
repeating the direct primary law and re-
storing the convention scheme for the
nomination of candidates for State and
judicial offices, including candidates for
the United States Senate. was introduced
today in the Legislature by Senator
Charles w. Walton, of Ulster and Assem-
byman George Fearon, Of Onondaga.
The referendum provision which was ex-
pected to be a part of the bill, so that it
could be put in form satisfactory to
Governor Smith. was not included in the
measure, its hackers not having deter
mined whether the referendum idea is
practical. 1t was at first proposed to
submit the whole question OF restoration
of the convention system to the people at
special election in April and it was re-
ported the scheme was satisfactory to the
Governor, who was one of the hackers of
the first direct primary law.
The bill as introduced today makes no
change in the direct primary system of
selection of candidates for Congress, the
State Legislatures nor for city, town and
county offices. The direct primary sys-
TEN is to be retained in selection of dele
gates to the proposed conventions. the

ASK WILSON TO KEEP
RAILROADS, 2 YEARS.
Labor and Farmers Fear Return to
Private Ownership VIII Further
Increase Cost of Living.
1spsciar DESPATCH to tho Hera1d.l

WASHINGTON, d. c., Tuesday.-Repre-
sentatives OF the American Federation OF
Labor, the four railway brotherhoods and
various farm organizations today sub
mitted to the President a plea that the
retain control of the railroads
for at least two years.
In support of the appeal it is asserted
that the cost Of living is increasing instead
of diminishing, and that if the roads are
turned back to their owners an increase of
freight rates, which will result in further
increase of the cost of living, is inevitable.
Labor and farmers delegates ask that
government operation of the railroads be
given fair test under normal conditions.
In a statement made in behalf of the
American Federation of Labor, Frank
Morrison. who took the place of Samuel
Gompers, says. in part
From 1913 to June, 1912 the cost of liv-
ing increased over eighty per cent, and
the men employed in the operating depart
ment of the railroad have received an in
crease of about thirty-seven per cent;
therefore, on June, 1919, they were carry
ing burden of forty-three per cent of the
eighty per cent increase.
''It is claimed by students of the railroad
question that increased freight rates would
increase the cost of living. Accepting that
position as true, instead of the claim that
1t is the result of the depreciation Of the
dollar Ii would mean that If the roads are
turned back to the owners it would result
in an increased freight rate in excess Of

THEY WOULD ADOPT
2 ORPHANED BOOMS
Wood and Johnson Managers
to Make Contests in Bay State
and Pennsylvania.

Contests TO obtain the election of dele
gates for Major General Leonard Wood
will be made in the Republican primaries
throughout Pennsylvania, it was an
nounced yesterday by Representative Nor
man j. Gould, Eastern manager of the
Wood Campaign Committee. The an
nouncement followed a statement by Gov
ernor William G. Sproul, OF Pennsylvania,
at dinner given TO him in Washington
by the Pennsylvania Congressional dele
cation that he was not in the Presidential
race.
At the same time Angus McSween. East
ern campaign manager for Senator Hiram
w Johnson, of California. said that an
effort would be made to obtain the cleo
ton of Johnson delegates in Massachu-
setts, where the field has been opened by
the statement of Governor Calvin Coolidge
that he was not a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for President. IL also
was said to be possible that an attempt
might be made to get some delegates for
Senator Johnson in Pennsylvania.
Two States Open for Contests.
Both Mr.. Gould end Mr.. McSween took
the view that Governor Sproul and Gov
ernor Coolidge had left the door open for
an open contes. for delegates in their re-
SDtCllNe NldleS Inc w OOQ campaign
Committee has adopted general policy
Of not making contests in States which
have a candidate.
Under the Pennsylvania primary law
the last day for filing as a candidate for
delegate is on April g. and the primary Is
on lay IS. The law requires petition
signed by at least one hundred persons in
ten counties. but the Wood managers, II
was said. intend 60 get signatures by the
thousands. The Pennsylvania law per-
mits a delegate to bind himself TO support
the popular choice" as revealed by the
result of the primary or may run as n
candidate declining TO give such "a pledge.
The Wood managers, 1t was said, intend
to try to get pledged delegates.
Headquarters for Senator Johnson were
opened at the Hotel Pennsylvania. and a
meeting TO organize a Hiram Johnson Club
will be held there on Friday night.
Nc Alliance with Hearst.
Mr.. McSween said there was no truth in
the intimation of Mr.. Gould that there
was reason TO believe that there was n
political alliance between Senator John
son and William r. Hearst.
''1f Mr.. Hearst wishes TO support Sem
ator Johnson that is one thing" said Mr..
McSween. But 70 suppose that Senator
Johnson will run as Mr.. Hearst's can
ddate or that he has formed an alliance
with him is absurd 20 any one who knows
Senator Johnson, and Mr.. Gould should
know that IL is absurd"
Mr. McSween said that so far as the
possibility OF Senator Johnson running as
the nominee OF n third party was con-
the only condition under which
that would even be possible-the nomi-
nation by both major parties Of a man
advocating ratification Of the peace treaty
and covenant of the League of Nations
unchanged-would never exist. Mr.. Nc
Sween said that Senator Johnson had
made it perfectly clear that he was a
Republican and. in his recent speech in
contemplated no bolt from the
