must work in the forthcoming political
campaign to prevent such organiza-
tions as the American Federation of
Labor, the Nonpartisan League and
the Peoples League from gaining con-
troll of the next Congress. S. II. Hal
stead, of Pasadena, in an address said :
"The American Federation Of Labor
to-day is the most dangerous force in
American politics and we want Ghis

and strong enough to combat the
American Federation of Labor by re-
moving the fear Of that body from the

Jersey Cities to Fight
Advance i'm Tube Fare
Hoboken and Jersey City People
Will File Protest Against
8-Cent Rate

Residents of Hoboken and Jersey
City declared yesterday they would
fight vigorously the proposed increases
in fares which the Hudson & Man
haitian Railroad Company announced
Sunday would be put into effect on the
Hudson tubes on April 4. The COM
pany has filed with the Interstate Com
merce Commission a schedule for an
eight-cent far, except between stations
in Hoboken and Jersey City and be-
tween stations in Manhattan.
Various New Jersey organizations
are determined to file protest with
the commission. The Hoboken Cham
Der Of Commerce called meeting for
Thursday to discuss the rate question.
4. +. Malta, the manager, said the pro-
posed increases in some instances
would amount to so per cent. "This
is beyond reason" he said. "Hoboken
people are dependent cn the tubes TO
ride to and from their work in Man
haitian. They cannot stand the in
crease"
Jersey City expects to VIC e= it's pro-
test at a City Council nleesing this
afternoon.
Oren Root, president Of the Hudson
& Manhattan Railroad Company, yes
terday issued a sts+Ament explaining
that the financial corc.ition Of the com.
pany demanded increased fares. The
proposed schedule would increase from
five to eight cents the fare from the
Hudson Terminal, in Manhattan, to
Jersey City or Hoboken and from seven
to eight cents the fare from Sixth
Avenue, Manhattan, to Jersey City or
Hoboken.

cents mile throughout the country.
except perhaps on certain lines serv-
ing limited territory and upon which
there are peculiar conditions. The
railroads and the public in time will
come to understand that these great
enterprises can best prosper and the
pubic best be served and protected by
commodity freight rates.
Inc passenger fare is direct tax
on the people. Commodity freight
rates, to the individual, mean almost
nothing. For instance, a man doesn't
worry particularly if he has paid six
cents freight on his overcoat. but if
ne ne Is compelled to pay SIS or Sc more
than he formerly did for trip back
to his old home he thinks he is being
robbed; Commodity freight rates i'm
pose the least tax on the things in
greatest use and the higher tax on
commodities of comparatively limited
use" '''''sea
The public is going to benefit under
private control, Mr.. Underwood con-
1tlnued, through the reawakening of
Keen Keen competition among the railroads.
The, individual responsibility of rail-
roads, he said, will be enlivened.

"Bad Order" List Analyzed
One of the things with which the
operating railroad man has to con-
tend Is the breaking down of cars,
Wnich rnereupon go on the "bad order"
list. The size of this list is also a
measure of the efficiency of the up-
keep work, so the figures work both
ways-they show the handicap upon
the operating end and the deficiency
OF maintenance. The figures on this
point are not quite satisfactory. for
much depends on individual Judgment
as to when a car should go out for
repairs, and it is admitted that a good
many have been kept running beyond
the point of wisdom, due to the attempt
to meet immediate needs. This is con-
dltlon which had already arisen dur
ing 1917.
In that year the "bad order" cars
averaged about 5.5 per cent; in 1918
they had risen to GAS per cent of all
ears on the rails, and last year
the figure was close to z per cent.

during the shopmen's strike. Great
efforts were made to catch up on this.
and on February 21 the percentage was
81. This included 1925 cars which
Mr.. Hines reports were not worth re-
pairing.
There is one item of increased eff
cheney of which the railroad admins
tration is particularly proud. That is
a cash saving of $685. 900 through
the more scientific burning of coal in
the engines. This gain followed cam
paign for the education of the firemen
and is steadily increasing.

mier i'm Address on Liner
Predicts More Harmony
Dominion Leader Met by
Cabinet Ministers on His
Arrival From England

Sir Robert l.. Borden, Premier of
Canada, who arrived here yesterday
from Liverpool on the Cunard liner
Carmania, told the saloon passengers
in an address delivered at the ships
concert in the run across the Atlantic
that close cooperation between Great
Britain and the United States could
prevent wars.
When he came ashore Sir Robert said
he had no impressions he cared to con-
vey, but when shown a transcript of
his speech he read it carefully and cor
rected what he described as several
errors.
Bespeaks Unity of Nations
His address dealt with the responsi-
bilities Of individuals to a nation and
the responsibilities OF the nation 70 the
world at large. At the conclusion of
his speech the Premier said that the
united action of Great Britain and the
United States could have prevented the
World War, and that it was up to the
two great English-speaking nations to
prevent future wars by harmonious CO.
operation.
The nations responsibilities. he said.
were founded upon the duties of the
individual, and the purposes, endeavors
and actions of all within the state,
should be the same. No individual, he
said. could divest himself of this re-
sponsibility within democracy.
Perhaps the greatest result" said
the Premier, that the world can ex-
pect from the horror and drain OF the
recent war is better understanding
and closer cooperation between the
British Empire and the American Re-
pubic. These two nations by united
purpose and action could have pre-
vented the war in August. 1914 There
fore their concerted efforts in the fu-
ture should be used to prevent war"

Reuiual of Competition
viii Be First Notice to
Public of Restoration

Painters were busy yesterday obi-
literating the words Federal control"
from the doors of almost every rail-
road office in New York. Only at the
threshold of a long row of rooms in
the Grand Central Terminal was the
lettering left untouched. A. T. Hardin,
who, since January /, 1918, had oc
director, abandoned them before day
light to resume his pre-war position
of vice president of the New York Cen
trail Railroad.
Without so much as scratch OF a
pen Mr.. Hardin had turned back to
private control seventy-five railroads,
which extend over $4,000 miles in the
region east of Chicago and north Of the
Baltimore & Ohio and Pennsylvania
systems, and which employ 424,000
workers.
The mere surrender of the Offices
constituted all the formality of the
to private control Officials said that
President Wilson's proclamation fix
ing the date for the return of the
roads was accepted as official notifica-
ton.
Competition Begins at Once
So far as the public was concerned
there was no perceptible difference in
conditions overnight. "The only change
the average person will notice for the
present will be the reappearance of the
freight and passenger solicitor" said
an official of the Association of Rail-
way Executives. "This means that COM
petition has returned. 1t means also
that the public will! be invited to travel
instead of being discouraged from
boarding trains, as was the case under
Federal control. Competition will be
based, not on rates, which are fixed
by the government, but on better serv-
ice and faster trains"
Railroad men believe it will take
cons derable time to get the roads re-
established on the old basis.
"Our system resumes active manage
ment of it's property with determina-
ton to do its full part in restoring to
the public the transportation service
it has come to expect" said r. r..
Looms, president of the Lehigh Valley
Railroad at is not possible to accom-
plish this overnight. Aside from other
complicated matters and big task is
before managers in placing their lines
on basis of pre-war efficiency. With
q full realization of our responsibility
we have made q start toward resuming
our former service"
Members of the General Managers
Association, which includes officials of
all the lines east of Pittsburgh and
north of the Potomac, yesterday ef-
fected a reorganization. e. M. Rine,
vice president and general manager Of
the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western,
was elected chairman; G. L. Bardo,
general manager Of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford, was made vice
chairman.

readjustment Of freight rates in
such manner as to provide Equitable

modify tariffs was made by Frederick
D. Underwood, president of the. Erie
Railroad, in a statement. He predicted
that one of the first benefits to be no

serious car shortage throughout the
country: The seriousness of this was
emphasized several months ago by
Director General Hines, who called at
tention to the fact that the demorali-
zation of traffic attendant upon the
coal strike had come at the very time
when the movement of other merchan-
disc had attained its maximum propor-
ticns.
In this connection Mr.. Hines, who
took over to-day the direction of the
liquidation committees of the rail-
road administration, was in confer
ence on the question of disposing of
the large quantity of rolling stock
purchased by the government on its
own account during the war. Another
element of relief will be afforded after
the new rates are established by
virtue Of the fact that the govern
ment's share of the excess earnings of
the prosperous roads over 51a per
cent will be partly used in purchas-
ing equipment to be leased out to
roads needing it.
