The reason given for loosening
Of the car situation is the
fact that on the twenty-first day or
October the industrial court of Kan
sas allowed the increased freight
rates to go into effect in Kansas. The
next day the Union Pacific railroad
alone released eight hundred cars for
use on their system. Other railroads
have also released cars. Along with
the release by the railroad companies
came an increase in the amount OF
grain being shipped to market, but
the price has also increased and at
present rate of increase will soon be
back to two dollars per bushe1. Such
manipulations as this has tendency
to increase the sentiment in favor of
socialism, government control or radl-
calism.

HOUSE SCORES
BUREAU CHIEFS
Refusal to Give Names Of
Useless Clerks Creates
Hot Discussion.

Bureau chiefs of the Department
of Agriculture were sharply scored
for their. alleged refusal to furnish
Congress with information regard
ing employees who were useless to
the public service. during the de-
bate yesterday on the agricultural
appropriation bill in the House
committee of the whole.
Most of the attacks came from Re-
publican congressman. although
Mr.. Blanton. OF Texas. is a strong
opponent of useless clerks.
Representative Longworth of
Ohio declared that he was in favor
of slashing the salaries of those bu-
reau chiefs who refused to furnish
Congress with the information. In
this he was seconded by Madden. of
Illinois, who declared he was will
ling to go still farther and start
"housecleaning" in the whole gov
ernment service. He intimated that
he would start with bureau chiefs
who failed to cooperate.
I'VE have over 10000 clerks In
SONcEnI.lcnl service mere IN the DIS
trict," said Madden, "who are not
needed to carry on the administra-
tive work. We cannot get the CO.
operation of any man in the service
TO eliminate those who are useless. ("
Representative James c. McLaugh-
lin. Of Michigan, declared that the
assistance of bureau chiefs, which had
been refused Congress, was absolutely
necessary in order to eliminate those
clerks who produced nothing" or
whose production was useless"
Republican. Leader Mondell was
sharply rebuked by Representative
Thomas L. Rubey. of Missouri, for
making the subject of economy in. the
Department of Agriculture a political
issue. Mr.. Mondell appeared to be
more concerned in defeating those
principles advocated by the Democrats
than those which were against the
! interests of the public service.
Mr.. Rubey declared that bureau
| chiefs had been there ever since he
came to Washington, in spite of Mr.
Mondelrs continued refeIsnce to "a
