DEFICIT S14,O05,564

Washington. May 4.-Operation of
the elegraph and telephone companies
during the war cost the governmen Mt
s14005564. Postmaster General Burle-
son informed Congress to-day in ask
ing imme iiate appropriation of that
amount TO liquidate the affairs Of the
federal wire administration.
Mr.. Burleson said that no loss would
have been suffered had the govern
ment retained operation of the lines
"a few months longer" or had rate
increases not been temporarily halted
by court injunctions.
"The deficit" wrote Mr.. Burleson,
"is the outcome of operations involv-
ing gross revenue of over $500, 900. 900
and therefore represents less than
two and a half percent of the total
gross revenues"
The postmaster general said that
when taken over by the government
many of the companies were not
earning operating expenses and a fair
return on the investment because Of
increased labor and material costs.
Mr.. Burleson disclosed that no agree
ment has yet been reached with tho
Mackay Companies for the use Of their
land lines forming the Postal Tele-
graph System. He said the Postal earn
ings during federal control were s2,-

convention at Chicago and will deliver
the keynote speech according to re-
publican leaders in Congress who have
conferred recently with chairman
Hays of the republican national COM
mittee.
Republicans in Congress are said to
have been virtually unanimous in
urging the selection of Senator Lo 1ge
by the committee on arrangements
which will meet at Chicago May 10.
No contest over the craftsmanship is
anticipated, although some friends of
Senator Hiram Johnson have been
urging consideration of Senator Borah
of Idaho and reports have reached
here that former Senator Beveridge
of Indiana also aspired to the chair
manship.
Republican platform pronouncements
will be considered here May 23 by the
general platform committee appointed
by Chairman Hays. Many question
naires on paramount issues have been
turned in by the plaintiff committee
and others. At the conference here II
is expected to outline some of the gen.
eral principles, at least, to be recon-
mended to the Chicago committee on
resolutions.
Although May 23 also has been Sc,
for meeting of the republican ma
tional committee at CHICAGO to take
up the contests of delegates from a
number of States, chairman Hays was
urged while here this week to post.

Development of the revolution as re-
ported to the government has been so
rapid as to convince many officials. and
especially army officers. that Carranza
cannot maintain his authority much
longer, not so much because he is opposed
by a formidable military force as because
he commands an army that is daily dis
solving before the rebels advance instead
of offering battle.
Information obtained through official
channels has been the basis of an esti-
mate that places the strength OF the rebels
at almost double that Of the government.
