Willard Blames Economic Conditions. Federal Opera
 ton For Present Status

WASHINGTON, May 16- Private ownership of railroads cannot contin- ue if railroad operating costs. when fair return on capital is considered, continue to exceed revenues, Daniel Willard, president Of the Baltimore and Ohio, today testified before a senate Investigating committee.
 He said that tne railroad situation insofar as depression and lack of earnings were concerned, differed ''only in degree" from that now being encountered in other industries. Gen. eral economic conditions and diff cult'es encountered in federal war time operations, he added were in his opinion largely responsible for present difficulties, and he expressed confidence that private ownership would justify itself financially and work out under present laws and gov ernment policy.
 Chairman Cummins. of the senate committee, had previously expressed the opinion that the railroads can- not last" if 1920 returns from operat- ion are to continue. an opinion agreed in by Julius Kruttschnitt, chairman of the Southern Pacific board, the first witness.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The eX- tremes to which some men go to sat isfy the craving for strong drink since the country went dry, shocked the house judiciary committee today at a hearing on the Volstead bill to make the prohibition enforcement law more drastic.
 Representatives of manufacturers of flavoring extracts, patent medi- cines and perfumes, in protesting against added restrictions which they claimed would interfere seriously with their business, were outspoken in opposition to medical beer and the sale of connections, masquerading as medicine, but actually used as bever- ages. The story of the man who be- came drunk after drinking hair tonic and Jamaica ginger crept in contin- ually.
 In list of more than 100 products branded as "booze medicine" some old bottles that had their place on the shelves of country drug stores for more than half a century were paraded in full view of the commit tee and denounced by spokcsmen for proprietary medicine associations,

Report Alleges No Co-Opera- ton Can Be Counted On
 From Labor Leaders

NEW YORK, May 16.-Manufac- turers and business interests are urg- ed to take the offensive and resist the alleged attempt of labor leaders todOminate industry, in the report of the committee of industrial improve ment, health and safety, presented to- day at the annual convention of the National Association of Manufacture CTS
 Leaders of. labor cannot and ap- parently do not care to hide their de termination to rule the industry said the report, and aspire to govern it politically as we'll The business ex- citation is involved in defeating their aspiration, which are against the pub lie interest and it must, therefore, of necessity, oppose them. A defensive battle is q losing battle. Therefore the association should boldly expose to the public the attempts of a minor ity to dominate business and govern the state in its own selfish interest.
 The policiesa of the leaders to which they have endeavored to com init members of their organization are policies of coercion and intimida- tion and therefore notoriously in dis respect of law except when in their own favor"
 The report charges that union la Dor spent $1,377, ,2O4 during the year ending April 30. 1920, for adminisra- tion, politics and strikes.
 The committee urged the "open shop" movement be stimulated by the extension of plans for industrial rep resentation, explaining:
 If plans for its adoption are wise ly introduced, industrial representa- tion should become the most approved method of dealing with labor. Such plans can be inaugurated where friends of labor organizations, as well as independent workers. are employ. ed"
 Contractors who conspired with la. bor leaders to compel eXtortion of pay. ment for construction were condemn. ed, and the report recommended that they be "ostraciZed as far as possible and preference be given contractors who deal honorably and honestly not only with the employe but with the owner"
 The report declared no cooperation from the leaders of present labor or ganizations can. be hoped for in re- ducing costs of transportation, hous- ing, rents and labor, adding they are all pyramided on labor costs and can not be successfully reduced except by the cooperation of labor.

Issue Involving Collections By Federal Reserve On Non Members Bank Sent Back

WASHINGTON. May 16.-The su- preme court reversed today decrecs of Georgia courts which. had refused to enjoin federal reserve banks at Atlanta from collecting checks drawn on non-member state banks and the "ase was remanded to the lower courts. As the issue before the su- preme court was merely whether. as matter of pleading. the plaintiffs bill Of complaint stated a cause of 'ction. the decision today was not q final determination and the case will 70 back to the district court of the northern district of Georgia where the next step is expected to be tried upon its merits.
 The plaintiffs asserted that to en- fierce it's policy of par collection of checks the Atlanta reserve bank planned to hold checks of small non member banks until they reached a material size and then to demand payment "iS cash across the counter" and to utilize other methods which wodld necessitate non-member banks keeping always on hand q sum out of all proportion to their capital. Such methods. they said. would force them to close or to join the federal re- serve system.

PHOENIX, May 1G.-- Whether a marriage contracted outside of Ari- zona when one Of the parties has se- cured a divorce in Arizona less than year previous to the ceremony is valid or not was the question argued before the state supreme court today.
 This is the first time the state su- preme court ever has been called on to determine this question and its decision will affect many persons who have secured divorces in Arizo- na and then been married in nearby states before a year had expired from the time they received their decrees.
 The question was brought before the supreme court bv Mrs. Annie Crawford Horton. who appealed from the decision of Judge Frank Fl. Ly- man. Judge Lyman granted the pe- tition of l.. j. Horton for annulment of his marriage to Mrs Horton on the ground that they were married be- fore Mrs Eorton's divorce decree had been effective a year before. The HoTtons were married in Deming. N. M. Judge Lyman held that such a marriage was violation of the law. which says that q divorced person shall not marry for year within the state"

 Addresses by Senator Pomerene. Democrat of Ohio. and Senator La Toilette. Republican of Wisconsin. prevented amendments from being reached and when adjournment was taken the latter had not finished. It was expected, however. amendments would be reached late tomorrow.
 Both senators declared great expen- ditures were unnecessary and inexped. tent. Senator Pomerene supported the Borah amendment and advocated one of his own to clothe the president with authority to suspend capital ship construction for six months.
 Senator La Toilette declared that the navy building program was a waste Of the peoples money" Cap ital ships would become obsolete in five years, he said. adding that with development of aircraft. submarines and sea coast defenses. the United States would be impregnable against attack.
 Senator Pomerene said rejection of the Borah amendment would ''practi- cally close the door of hope of the world for disarmament"
 Demands for disarmament finally caused Senator Poindexter. Repuhli- can, in charge of the bill. to state that no information had been submitiet tH show extravaganza in the pro .-u naval purchases
