|arrierS Sustain Deficit of 206 Millions For Period of
 Six Months
By Associated Press

INasAisgton, November 3.-Priyate op
 fation of the railroads for the first six \ tonths after the end of the federal con- 1 tol will cost the federal government
 fsal of s656, ,OO0,OO0, according to figures made public today by the interstate com merce commission.
 The railroad sustained a net deficit of s2o6 ,000,0o0 during the six months period and besides this sum the treasury must pay them sl50.0e9,OOO, the amount of the guarantee provided in the transporta- tion act. Part Of the deficit is charged to increased pay granted to the rail- road workers by the railroad labor board
 When the period of federal guarantee of earnings to the roads ended on Sep- tenlber l, the increased passenger and freight rates granted by the interstate commerce commission were in effect. These are designed to increase the gross revenue of the carriers by Sl,50000o, coo annually.

How to Keep the Face
 Young and Attractive

The way to ward off old age is not to fear it. not to allow one's self to be op- pressed by the dread of advancing years Use only legitimate preventives and avoid trying experiments with preparations that have not stood the test of time. An entirely safe and very effective way to keep the com plexion young looking and beautiful is to apply ordinary mercolized wax at bedtime, using it like cold cream, washing it off in the morning. This gradually absorbs the withered, faded cuticle, which is replaced by the more youthful, pink-tinted under skin. One of this wax, to be had at any drug store. is enough to completely rejuvenate worn-out complexion
 Crows feet and other wrinkles, the first signs of advancing age, may be removed by a simple, harmless preparation made by dissolving ounce of powdered saxolte in a half pint witch hazel. 1t is used as a face bath-Ady.

NSURGENT RAILWAYS
OUTLINE THEIR NEEDS
Southwest Lines Ask I. G. G. for
Separate Treatment From
Western Classification.

Insurgent railroads of the southwest
today asked the Interstate Commerce
Commission at the advance rate hear
ing for separate treatment from the
western classification. of which they
are a part, and an advance in rates of
32.S2 per cent. Carriers of the west
ern group are asking an advance of
"a per cent.
Columbus Halle, vice president of
the Missouri. Kansas and Texas rail-
road, presented the petition. asking
separate treatment for thirty-eight
mileage of 2S.517. The property in
vestment of these roads is given as
$1,597, ,101 .909. and the additional in
come needed to earn per cent. as
permitted by the transportation tax,
is S74,432,457.
Mr.. Hailes stated that the sepa-
rate application of the southwestern
lines was made in order that the to-
tai revenue derived from advances in
freight rates in the western classif1-
cation territory as a whole may be
so distributed as to most nearly ap-
proximate the needs of the carriers in
the various sections.
Objection to the application being
entertained by the commission was
made by r. c. Fullbright and S. H.
+Cowan, representing Texas cattle
shippers, because of the increase
asked over the demands of the official
western group. Chairman Clark, how
ever, ruled that the evidence was ad-
missible and that arguments on the
rates asked would be had later.
Adjustments and requirements nee
essary to produce a per cent return
on property investments of 1876 roads
and systems were outlined by L. F.
Whiting of Chicago, statistician for
western railroads.
1t is expected the carriers will con-
clude their direct statements to the
commission this afternoon. following
which there will be recess for one
week to allow shippers to prepare for
cross ss-examination.

Declaring that the United States is
today confronted with railroad rate
increases of from 40 to so per cent,
Frederic c. Howe, former United
States commissioner of immigration.
outlined the Plumb plan at mass
meeting. held under the auspices of
the Bryan Democracy Club. at the
Universalist Church, 18th and L

There has been a growing deficit
ever since the railroads were returned
to their owners" Mr.. Howe said: "Ac-
cording to the Railway Age. it will
amount to billion dollars for the
current year, which is nearly twice
the reported deficit for two years of
government railway operation. This
will have to be met by an increase in
rate and charges. an increase that
may amount to two or three billion
dollars before it is paid by the con-
sumer. and this does not include pro-
visions for wage increases.
A large number of railway men and
their wives, together with full rep

BEGINNING A NEW YEAR.

Though we are apt to think that
New Years has been observed since
the year one, such is not the case.
In fact, there is no mention OF the
day as a Christian festival until the
fifth century, and even now the He
brews celebrate their New Years in
September, for their calendar is ar
ranged according TO the new moon.
which makes New Years a movable
holiday. Today, however, there is
scarcely a nation but observes this
season Of the year in some manner
or other, though customs differ in
most localities.
