tBV MORNING JouRHNL SPECIAL LEASED "iHs'
Washington, April % (by the AS
sociated Press( (.-Republican men,
bers of the house ways and means
committee virtually cecided today
TO include in their soldier relief
lgislation program a plan OF paid
up insurance, its value to increase
annually by compound interest,
and on which loans could be OBJ
tanned from any postoffice.
With this addition, ex-service
men might elect any one of the
five following plans included In
the republican program:
A cash bonus of $1.25 a day for
each day Of service; aid in buying
farm land, to be reclaimed by the
government; aid in buying city
homes: aid in their education, or
the insurance.
To popularize the lest four plans
the republicans propose to allow
.$1.75 a day for each day of service,
instead of the $1.25 cash bonus as
the basis for computing farm ana
home aid, loans and the amount of
financial aid each man might re-
ceive in the form OF educatlohal
training.
The insurance plan as such was
said by committeeman to be a
''misnomer" but they declared 1t
was the most attractive of any
of the five plans, The average
period of service for world war
veterans was 400 DAYS, they said
explaining that under the insurance
plan the average could receive a
paid-up insurance policy of $l,SS7,
payable to him in cash at the end
Of twenty years or Immediately to
his heirs in event of death.
The loan value of the insurance
denoted in the legislation as "ad-
justed service certificates would
rot accrue until the end of the
third year the plan had been in
force, and at that time an ex-serv-
ice man with record of 400 days
service would he entitled to loan
of 1851. This would be the cash
value of his Certificate" at that
time in 5 per cent compounded
annually.

from Moran, with whom the univer-

ing he would come to Moscow for
$4,000 per year. That was $1,000
more than the university, by any pos
sible stretch of the imagination, rules
and funds, could pay.
But the situation was made known
to a few Moscow business men who
have the advancement of the univer-
sity at heart and the reply came at
once: Hire him. Well make up the
extra 81 ,000." In short time 10
men had guaranteed the amount and

OPERATION OF ROADS BY GOV
ERNMENT WAS EXPENSIVE
FOR ALL CONCERNED

| WASHINGTON.- Operation of the
railroads, Pullman lines, express COM
panies and waterways, unified under
! federal control, has cost the nation
approximately $700000,000, accord
ing to official calculation, since they
were taken over two years ago.
Figures made public by the railway
administration tonight revealed a net
loss of $594, 100000 from railroad op-
GRAFTON alone in the two years. Sta
tistics, gathered from official sources
as to operating costs of the. Pullman
lines and waterways and express
companies while operated by the gov
ernment, show the addition of $780,
100000 to the transportation cost.
Coal Strike Caused Loss.
Heavy losses of November and De-
cember are charged to the coal strike
in a statement by the railroad ad-
ministration A deficit of Sill 100000
after the two months proportion of
the annual rental was paid. Decem-
Der revenues were said to be about
$12,70O,000 above actual operating
expenses, while the revenues for No
vember, according to interstate COM
merce commission figures, exceeded
actual operating expenses by approx
mately $19,000,000. The monthly
share Of the ar rnual rent has been
generally sat $75,00O,O0O.
Much of the loss during 1919 should
be charged to the first six months
Of the year, according to the official
explanation.
Armistice Made Freight Slump.
The statement shows that of loss
Of $349, 100000 for the IL months,
1928, 100000 came during the first
six months when there was pro-
onged slump in freight business fol-
owing the signing of the armistice.
1t adds that if the rate increase
which went into effect in June, 1919,
had become effective the previous
January the loss for the two years
would probably not have exceeded
100000.
Preliminary reports upon which
he compilation Of revenue results
vas based, indicates a serious dis
ocation of freight traffic" during
November and December. This could
lot be estimated closely, officials
aid. Passenger traffic for the last
wo months Of the year showed an
Increase, however. An increase also
vas shown for the II months ended |
With November, as compared with
he corresponding period of 1918
