Adrien Pressemane, member of the

today in the national socialist con-
gress on adhesion to the Moscow in

unreserved adhesion. He asserted

pressed the belief that the workers

adhering to those of the Russian

Illinois Central railroad relative to

Der of the most clever burglaries that
ever came to the attention of the
Paris police until the entire gang was
rounded up and sent to prison this

For several weeks the police re-

house robberies. On many occasions
bedrooms were robbed while the oc-
cupants were at dinner in adjoining
rooms, but not a sound was heard.
The police took finger prints and
by reason of other clews arrested four
men named Barney, Pierret, Maurel
and Ritter, all deaf mutes. They
confessed that their leader was the
Loisy girl, also a deaf mute. The
girl told the police that the band
worked so successfully because they
carried on none of the whispered con-
versations that so often reveal the
presence of BURGERS, but principally
because they revealed &c secrets to
outsiders.

RAIL Loss PLACED
AT 100000, 600
Federal Control Of Trans
formation Lines "Some"
Expensive

Washington, Jan. 31-Operation
of railroads, Pullman lines, express
companies and waterways, unified
under federal control, has cost the
nation approximately 100000, 900,
since they were taken over two years
ago, according to official calculation.
Figures made public by the Rail-
road Administration tonight revealed
net loss of 1000, 900 from rail-
road operation alone in the two-year
period. Statistics, gathered from Of
fetal sources as to operating costs
the Pullman lines and waterways and
express companies while operated by
the government, show the addition of
$100,000,000 to the transportation
costs.
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:
500, 900 was shown for those two
months after the two-months' proper
ton of the annual rental was paid.
December revenues were said to be
about $12,70O,0OO above actual oper-
ating expenses, while the revenue for
November, according to Interstate
Commerce Commission figures, ex-
ceeded actual operating expenses by
approximately s19,000,O00. Thu
monthly share of the annual rental
has been computed generally at SIS
100000.
Much of the loss during 1919
should be charged to the first SIX
months of the year. according &C. :hc
official explanation. The staten. ent
shows thu; Of a loss of $343.0Il.Cc1
for the twelve months $22S.7 400
came diving the first six months
when there was a prolonged slump
in freight business, following the
signing of the armistice." 1t adds
that ''if the rate increase which went
into effect in June, 1918, had become
effective the previous January, the
loss for the two years would probably
not have exceeded 100000 900"
Preliminary reports upon which
the compilation of revenue results
was based, indicates a SERIOUS dis
location of freight traffic" during
and December. This could
not be estimated closely, officials
said. Passenger traffic for the last
two months of the year showed an
increase, however. An increase also
was shown for the eleven months enc
ing with November, as compared with
the corresponding period in 1918.

have referred, regard the line which
II was proposed to strike out as
absolutely necessary.
THE United States has always in
terpreted the Monroe Doctrine alone.
II is our policy. No one else has
ever attempted to interpret, and it is
something which in my Judgment
ought never to be permitted even by
the most remote implication. If we
should strike out that phrase now,
after It had been accepted by the
Senate, it would lead to a direct in
ference that we left that question
open. The right to interpret the
Monroe Doctrine, pertaining to the
United States alone, must never be
open to question.

SIMPLE HEALTH RULES

Simple rules of health, not too hard
to remember, may be reduced to a
few brief instructions;
Keep serene; use moderation In
work, play, rest and sleep; ventilate
every occupied room; seek out-of-
door occupation and recreations;
drink sufficient water; walk, stand
and sit erect; breathe deeply; wear
light. porous, loose clothing; eat
slowly, avoid overeating, eat sparing-
ly of eggs and meats. and eat some
raw foods, some bulky and some
hard foods.

"a movement of the bowels without it
is produced by cathartic. Most of
them have brought that condition on
themselves by the use of mineral
waters and strong cathartics that
take too much water out of the sys-

are meant to relieve. A mild laxa-
tive tonic like Chamberlain's Tablets
affords a gentle movement of the
bowels that you hardly realize has

LABOR PROTEST
GOES UNHEEDED
New Bill To Be Drafted To
Aid In Fight On
Radicalism


Washington, Jan. 31.-Despite op-
position of organized labor to dras-
tic sedition legislation, as expressed
| by Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, the
House Judiciary Committee has de-
termined to support a far-reaching
bill to curb Red Movements and
preachings against the Government.
This was announced today by Rep
resentative Volstead chairman of the
Judiciary Committee. Some members
say that they fear defeat at the polls
in November should they support
such a drastic sedition measure as
the Graham or Sterling bill.
Will Frame New Bill.
1t is evident to conservative men,
bers of the committee that the Gra-
ham bill is too inclusive, and, there
fore, the Judiciary Committee will
begin framing of a new bill in few
days, after which there will be COM
promise between the Graham and the
Davey bills.
Attorney General Palmer inform
ed Representative Volstead today that
he favored some strong legislation
that would meet the situation and aid
the Government in the prosecution OF
radicals.
The sedition question will be
brought before the committee Thurs
day, when Charles d. Newton, Attor-
ney General of New York, will fur
nish it with the results of his inves-
legations into radicalism in that State.
Mr.. Palmer Unchanged.
Representative Davey, author CT
one of the sedition bills, saw Attorney
General Palmer today and afterward
declared that Mr.. Palmer had not al
tered his opinion as to necessity for
sedition legislation, as was charged
before the Rules Committee recently
1.-THE Attorney General believes ad-
ditional legislation is necessary If the
Department of Justice campaign
against all forms of radicalism and
violence is to be effective" said Mr..
Davey.
Our plans are to frame bill that
will be short and to the point" said
Mr.. Volstead. "The committees in
tention in framing bill always has
been to reach only advocates of
physical force and violence, and it
will be made plain that the measure
cannot be used against those who seek
a change in our form of government
by peaceful means or by moral
force This meets the main objec-
tion of Samuel Gompers to the Ora
ham bill"
