 VA $ HIN G T O N, May 27-With proper equipment. the railroads of the country can be operated as success fully in the future under private man agement as they were before federal control. Charles H. Markham. presi- dent of the Illinois Central railroad declared today in opening the case of the Southern railroads for higher freight rates before the interstate com merce cOmmi ssion.
 Expenditures of at least $500. 900. .000 for the new equipment for the nations transportation system was advocated by MT. Markham wso asserted that nothing was of greater importance than the immediate placing of orders for cars and engines.
 For the Southern railroads. Mir. Markham asked an increase in freight rates to enable the carriers so earn S136,049. .091 annually which he claimed would represent a return of six per cent on the aggregate value of those carriers, which he estimated at S2,- 267.4S4.847
 The hearings on the demands of the carriers for increased rates to give an added income of billion dollars a year will be suspended for a weak at the conclusion of the carriers testi- many.

CHILDREN WILL BE EXAMINED 1T FREE
 CLINIC SATURDAY

Saturday morning of this week will be devoted largely to the examination of children at the free clinic conducted at 300 East Adams street by the state board of health. Children who are anemic or who have been exposed to tuberculosis infection are especially welcome to examination. Mrs. Howe. director of the child welfare division of the state board of health, will take charge of the weighing and measuring of the children and the physicians will give each child a thorough exam ination.
 For those children who are found to have enlarged or infected tonsils or adenoids, provision will later be made for the correction of these defects. clinic have been found to be handi- caped with such growths and their parents have welcomed the advice and instruction given by the examining physicians. Some children have been found to be undernourished and some suffering from malnutrition. The dis covery of these cases and the assist ance given them will prevent many child from later becoming a prey to tuberculosis, the great white plague
 This work with the children is but one phase of the work now being con- ducted at the free clinic. The work has been carefully planned and the examinations include a physical exam ination, laboratory tests of sputum and blood and when necessary an x-ray or floroscopic reading of the lungs The clinic will continue in operation every day from 9 a. m. to 1 D. m, until June 19.

STATE ENGINEER'S
 FORCES WILL MOVE
 ID NEW QUARTERS

Tn order that the offices may be consolidated, the state engineers forces will move within the next 10 days to it's storehouse two blocks south of the state house. The new building will store the supplies shipped by the federal government and will house the main offices until the office building which will have to be built is com pleted.
 At present the state highway forces are occupying the bungalow. the base ment of the state house, the Senace chamber and the office of the state eX- aminer, while the storehouse will care for the accounting, purchasing, bridge and federal aid departments, the chief locating and chief construction en- gineer's quarters and part of the draft ing staff
 There are now 65 on the force of Thomas MaddoclS, state engineer, com pared with 10 employees of the depart ment three years ago. The stupsn- dous road building program of the state engineer has necessitated the increase in the force, which is maintaining longer hours than any other in the state house. Another evidence of the development of the road system is that the department is handling a business of $400.000 a month, while at the time of statehood the appropriation of the department was $100,0O0 year.
 MT. Maddoek, in response to a query from the government as to the number of lotion tractors wanted in the state wired yesterday for 15. He also stated that the number of mobile machine shops needed were eight and listed the needs in machine shop tools for the stationary plant which will be estab lished in the new building.

 New York-Solution of the work ing girls housing problem is being attempted by the National League of Women Workers. of which Mrs. Ser nard PoIlak is president and Miss Jean Hamilton secretary. Attempts of big companies to provide homes for girls in the past have sometimes failed. the league believes. because the women have been placed under restrictions. The league is now work ing with the aton, Crane & Pike Co.,, at Pittsfield, Mass. and will have a modern home for girls. The coopera- tive company owning the house will treat the girls as ordinary tenants. Each will have her wn latch key and will be under no supervision what ever. The league will hold a con- vention at Bryn-Mawr College in June.
