ADMINISTRATION
OF Rail- WAYS TO
Be REORCAN|zED

Washingtons Feb. .-Reorganiza-
ton of the railroad administration for
its work as a government liquidating
agent in preparation for a return OF
the roads to their owners on March l.,
was begun today by Director General
Hines.
The first steps were creation of a
division of liquidation claims, and the
abolition of the division of capital ex-
.penditures, effective February Is.
Max Thelan, director of the public
service division and formerly chair
man of the California state utilities
commission, was placed in charge of
the liquidation division.
The reorganization program tenta-
lively decided upon will leave intact
the present divisions OF law, finance
and accountingin addition to the new
ly created division of liquidation of
claims. While the actual purchasing
will cease with the termination of fed
eral control, settlement of claims still
will require the attention of many Of
the purchasing units.
Mr.. Thelan will have charge Of cap
ital expenditures which must be made
between February IS and March l. His
big task, however, will begin imme-
diately after private operation is re-
sumed when filing of completed claims
will begin.

ATTORNEYS CLASH
UPON SERIOUSNESS
OF RADICAL MENACE

washington, Feb. 6. - Conflicting
views as to the danger to the United
States from radicals now in this .coun-
try were presented today to the house
judiciary committee considering anti
sedition legislation.
Francis H. f. Kane, former federal
district attorney at Philadelphia, who
resigned recently because he was not
in sympathy with Attorney General
Palmer's campaign against the reds
told the committee that much of the
agitation about bolshevism in Ameri-
ca was mere talk.
Attorney General Charles D. New
ton of New York disagreed with this
view, declaring that thousands Of rad
ical press, were daily advocating the
revolutionary overthrow Of the govern
ment and the establishment of die
tatorship.
Congress and the people Of the
United States should awaken to the
danger of the doctrines Of these rad
icals and take necessary steps to curb
their propaganda, Mr.. Newton said.
Approximately 100000 radicals In
New York city alone are organized TO
overthrow all capitalistic govern
ments. Mr. Newton said The better
element of organized labor and the
Catholic church, he declared, have
been the two leading factors in sup
pressing these revolutionary actiyi-
ties.
.The laws for Furnishing these rad
icals must not be very effective" said
Representative Igoe, democrat, Mis-
souri,
"There is need for additional leg
islation to reach those against whom
there is no existing statute" Newton
replied.
Asked by Representative Gard, dem
ocrat, Ohio, how these revolutionary
tendencies could be met, the witness
said an educational campaign should
be inaugurated.
Representatives Of these radicals
meet school children with primers
teaching bolshevism and the over
throw of the government. They should
be taught the benefits Of this country.
Declaring that radicals arrested and
deported never were armed. and that
few bomb outrages had occurred, Mr..
Kane told the committee there never
had been ANY real attempt to over
throw the government BY force.
Most Of what we see In newspa-
pers regarding this menace in this
country Is mere bunk" said Mr. Kane
II for one, cannot take the feeling Of
bolshevism seriously.

Tagblett, as he only once visited the
Nfront
Berlin. Feb. 6.-Field Marshal Won
Reulow told the Lokal Anzeiger today
that Germans whose names are on the
list Of those who extradition is de-
manded by the allies ''oniy did their
duty to the fatherland" and that extra
dition was ignominy to which mo Ger
man would voluntarily submit"
The field marshal declared he would
never place himself at the disposal of
the entente nations and expressed the
belief that most Of the commanders
named in the allied list would take the
same view.
1t is understood that meetings of
army and navy commanders were held
on January and 1t was unanimously
Concluded that evasion Of the extradi-
tion clause of the Versailles treaty was
entirely compatible with German hon
or and that no one must voluntarily
surrender. Legal objections should be
lodged against orders for the arrest of
the commanders, 1t was decided at
these meetings.
The covering note and the official
list has not been received here and the
unofficial list does not afford basis
for even superficial consideration OF
the offenses charged against the list
ed men. 1t is not improbable the gov
errment will promptly get into touch
with the national assembly, which is
expected to reconvene next week al
though IT adjourned until the end of
the month.
