SENATOR bANKHEAD IS DANGEROUSLY ILL, REPORT AT CAPITAL
 ~
Montgomery Hears That Relatives Have Been Called to Bedside of
 Senior Senator
By FRED IT. GoRMLEY.

Montgomery, February li'-oenalor I Fl Baukhead is dangerously i'll at his residence in Washington, accord ing to semi-official information re- eeiyed in Montgomery Tuesday after noon. He has been i'll for several days and relatives have been called to his bedside. A Press association made an effort to confirm the semi-officiai re- mort during the afternoon and was given informant at the Senator's of- flee that he was indisposed but would return to his duties in few days This information does not coincide with the report which was received here and which stated that the Senator, who has been in failing health for a year or more. had taken to his bed and that his condition had become more grave with the passing of the days.
 It is a coincidence that the first re- mort of his serious condition reached the state on the day the voters cele- brated the victory for the road bond issue which will match the Federal appropriation, a thing made possible by Senator Bankhead's fight for feder- al aid for postal highways. Senator lsankhead was author of the first con gressional measure which extended federal aid to the construction of pub lie roads Governor KiIby stated he had received unofficial reports of Senator Bankhead's condition. but had not received official information of it's \ seriousness.

ROAD RETURN PUTS PRIVATE OPERATION
 ON FINAL TRIAL 7
Federal Operation Attacked By Hoover as Experi- ments in Socialism Ne
 cessitated by War
By Associated Prsss

New York, February T.-The return of the railroads to private ownership on March l will mean the placing of private operation on us final trial in the opinion of Herbert Hoover. expressed to- night in his inaugural address as presi- dent of the American Institute of Mining Engineers. At the same time MT. Hoover attacked government operation of either railroads or shipping as experiments in socialism necessitated by the war, to which there were many fundamental ob- jections.
 No scheme of political appointment ' Mi Hoover said. has ever yet been de- vised that will replace competition in it's selection of ability and character. Both shipping and railways have today the advantage. of many skilled personnel ssfted out in d hard school of competi- ton and even then the government oper- ation of these enterprises Is not proving satisfactory. Therefore, the ultimate in- efficiency that would arise from the deadening paralysis of bureaucracy has not yet had ful opportunity for develop ment. Already we can show that no government under pressure of ever pres ent political or sectional interests can properly conduct the risks of extension and improvement, or can be free from local pressure to conduct unwarranted services in industrial enterprise.
 After referring to the handicaps im- posed upon business through the failure of transportation facilities to grow with the country, MT. Hoover continued.
 "The return of the railway to the owners places predominantly private operation upon it's final trial. If instant energy. courage and large vision in the owners should prove lacking in meeting the immediate situation we will be faced uith reatciou that will drive the coun- try to some other form Of control Ener- getic enlargement of equipment. better service, cooperation with employees and the least possible advance in rates to- together with freedom from political fu- 'terests will be the scales upon which the public will weigh the results"
 Turning to the question of shipping, Mir. Hoover said that. while with the railroads government inefficiency could passed on to the consumer, lon the seas we will sooner or later find 1t translated to the national treasury"

Railways Cannot Survive Return to Private Control at This Time, View of
 Jewell
By A..~iatsd Pros,

Washington, February H.-Ursing that federal operation of the railroads be con- tinued for at least an additional two years, E. M Jewell, acting president of the railway employees department of tho American federation of Labor, in letter to members of Congress today. expressed the opinion that return of the roads to private ownership at this time would lead inevitably to their bankruptcy which might easily result in a national panic. and in turr bring world d-wide bankrupt cy,'
 For two years traffic has been short routed MT. Jewell said. explaining his belief that the railroads cannot survive their return to private control.
 z lt has been sent over selected routes- A greater part of the mileage of ths country is not earning operating cx- penses and fixed charges. and receiver ships are inevitable if the railroads arc unscrambled and each left to shift for itself"
 7 MT. Jewell said he sent the letter in behalf of organizations which represent directly 200, 600 workers but which believed they might ''claim to reflect the wishes of the great majority of the peo- nla of the country"
