Government SeffIInQ
With Railroads
(By J. E. Jones)

Washington, Oct. 7.-Secretary Mel
Ion says that more than $100,OOO,O00
Of railroad equipment trust certifi-
Gates have been sold. AS result cf
sales already made, the Administration
has sufficient funds to make payments
to carriers where final agreement has
been reached as to the respective
amounts owed to each other by the
Government and the railroads. The
Railroad administration originally had
about $3.50, 900 of equipment trust
certificates. 1t is believed that a
second 800, 100000, or a total of at
least 5000, ,COO,0 900, will have been sold
within the next few weeks. The GER
tificates pay per cent return in
interest and must be marketed by the
Government at par Or better. At pre-
sent the debt Of the railroads to the
Government is held to balance the
.;eot Of the Government to the rail
roads. AS the railroad claims arc
paid off from the amounts received by
the sales Of equipment trust certifi-
Gates, new bonds are to be issued by
the carriers, so that the Government
will continue to have collateral to be
held against the sum owed to the Gov
ernment which will be funded. Tho
rev bonds will draw er cent interest
the same as that payable to holders
Of the equipment trust certificates.

THE CONDITION
OF LECISLA-
TI0N
(By U. 8. Press)

Washington, Oct. 7.-President Hard
ing has given Senate leaders to under
stand that he expects them to carry
out the legislative program without
consideration of an adjournment for
the Armament Conference. Adjourn
ment on November 10 would mean
that the legislative program would be
narrowed down to four measures,
namely, the treaties of peace with
Germany, Austria and Hungary, the
tax bill, the Borah Panama Canal tolls
bill and the antibeer bill, leaving the
railroad funding bill, the allied debt
refunding bill, the tariff and other
measures to go over till the next ses-
sion The Panama Canal tolls bill and
the treaties are on for immediate at
tention. Prospects are that the rest
Of Qoiths.r gill have TO be devoted to
the tax bill, and, if it is radically
amended, as now seems likely, consid-
erable time will be spent in adjusting
it in conference. Immediately follow
ing the passage Of the tax bill, the
antibeer bill will be brought up, and
,, this is likely to lead to a continuation
of the filibuster which has been going g
on against the measure from time to
! time for several months. AS soon as
the beer bill is out Of the way, the rail
road will be brought up. It is doubt
+, full whether either the allied debt re-
funding bill of the tariff will be reach
ed at the present session.

XII KLuX KHAN

Washington, Oct. 7.-The Depart
ment of Justice has commenced an in
vestigation Of the Ku Klux Klan. The
Klan appears to have created most of
it's excitement because Of the name it
has borrowed from the organization
that sprang up in the South after the
Civil War. Officials of the Klan
have been disclosing their identity and
in their statements to Federal officials
they emphasize the harmlessness of
their aims and methods. There is a
suspicion that the organization is aim
ed principally at certain religious or
CARNATIONS, somewhat along the lines
Of the "a. P. Az Of the early nine

dQue Bond Scheme
=
Will Melt Frozen
Credit
(By Associated Press.)

Los Angeles, Oct 7-The Ter Meu-
len Bond Scheme fort the relief of
war-torn nations and new states will
melt frozen credits,'' allow creditor
nations to extend material help, revive
the productive power Of countries up
set by the war and will restore nor
NAL oversee trading, said Sir D. Drum
mond Fraser, Of London, organizer Of
the plan for the League of Nations, in
an address delivered here today before
the American Bankers Association.
He emphasized the following points:
1t will re-awaken the dormant coli
fidenea IN the ability of importers in
ar1stricken countries to pay their
way.
Governments may keep expenditures
within their revenue.
ing countries may be mobilized for
the purchase Of essential imports
which in turn will restore the buying
power of those countries.
Lending countries Of which the
United States is the most important
may secure, with a collateral bond,
safe outlet for exports.
The scheme does not attempt to sta
bilize exchanges. These were disloca
ted because war stocks were replaced
lat excessive prices in certain coun-
tries before tic recovery Of their
port trade. Conditions Of trade III
these countries must be restored to
normal. When they have been res
tored the exchanges will take care Of
themselves, he said.
Sir Drummond warned the bankers
! that restriction Of the credit Of Euro
pean countries means an inevitable
shrinkage of exports from the United
States or other creditor nations and
continued stagnation of foreign trade.
J Sir Drummond suggested the forma-
;tion Of National Export Corporations
! in each Of the lending countries, Unit
! ed States, England, France and Italy
and others, backed by a pro rata gu
arantee Of the governments, banks and
other financial institutions and said
that such concerns if properly mana
pcd should allow for normal foreign
trade in as simple and effective man
ner as the banks now handle domestic
trade.

SOCIALIST PARTY
WILL CHANGE
TACTICS
(By Associated Press.)

milan, Oct. THE Italian Sc
ist Party which will meet
Der 10 to debate cities
is represented i, 10 s:@ s.'1' Chamber
of Deputies by 12!le Members, the strong
est party numerically but it is com
posed of dissenting groups. If the diff
ferences Of these are not composed,
the party's compact representation
may be divided into small factions and
cliques.
Lining up for the convention are the
prq-Sovieta anti-g government groups,
anti-Russia faction, pro-unity, anti
internationale and centrist tendencies.
They are meeting mainly to decide
whether the Socialist deputies shall
aprticipate in the government or line
up against the government on every
proposal that it makes.
The right wing under Deputies
Turat1, Treves and Modigliani IS for
joining in with the Bonomi government
and getting what they can in the wav
Of legislation.
The left wing is for holding out nn.
til the Socialists in full force can take
possession Of the government and the
"spoils of vietory.' These are head
ed by Signor Serrati, director of tine
Socialist press and Deputy Barantono
The right wing is called the 'tcolla
borateurs and the left, the Can't
cola borateurs.
The right wing looks upon the pres
ent parliamentary situation as one
which would yield considerable social
istic legislation. The leaders have
been somewhat kindly disposed t.:
President Bonomi, who at one tins
was fiery leader in the Socialis
ranks but was dropped from the off
cial rolls of the party because of +:
too patriotic attitude.
That wing is insistent on participa
ton in the government and many O
the deputies Of that faction are report
ed to favor deserting the Socials
Party in 5; body if the prevailing sens
of the convention goes for ''anti
cola boration. -
The left wing holds that non parti
cipation in the government puts TIL
Socialists in a strategic position, be
cause if they are not III the govern
ment they will not be responsible TO
any misdeeds blameable to the govern
tment On the other hand, if an.
credit is due, they are prepared to clair
it, they contend, without having born
any responsibility.
The Italian newspapers have com
planned bitterly Of the Socialist abste1
ton from the responsibility Of gov
ernment.
While the discussion on "collabors
tion'' and can't cola boration' viii
occupy the main attention. there wi
be inside politics dealing especial,
on the Russian situation.
The Third Internationale asked fo
the epulsion Of Serrati and Turati fror
the party. This would mean that NOR
than two thirds Of the organizatio
would be outside the pale Of the Thir
Internationale. The remainder, heade
bv Deputy Baratono, Deputy Lazza1
and others, would conform to the di
J tates Of the Moscow congress. :
