(Continued from Page One.) be said now as the bill was reported in the House and immediately tabled for printing.
 One new departure is apparent in the measure. It includes now police men, hremen and other municipal employees not now under COmpensa- ton benefits as was learned when several city employees about the state were killed in line of duty.
 In the amendments offered by the committee foreign benefciaries are also to be allowed full compensation, with the provision, however, that de pendents residing in this country, re- gardless of the relationship to the de ceased employe in whose case com pensation is awarded, shall get the compensation. Under the present ruling foreign beneficiaries get only half of the award that would be made in the case of benefciaries who reside in this country. The request for the change was voiced by Sena- tor Bakewell of New Haven, and many Italians from New Haven who told the committee that the present law discriminated against them as ed many benefciaries who resided in Italy.
 Other changes in the compensation laws were urged by the compensa- ton commissioners in line with their recommendations made to the gover- nor in their 1920 report.

 Rates

New York, May I3.-Evidence showing that sheet metal contractors, architectural iron workers and pipe supply companies followed the prac- tices of other associations in fixing prices for building materials, was introduced yesterday before the Lockwood committee Investigating building conditions.
 It was shown by answers to ques- tions of Samuel Untermyer, commit tee counsel, that associations of all three crafts prohibited members from assuming contracts previously let to other members and prohibited mem bers from completing contracts drop ped because of differences between builders and members. Circulars and minutes of proceedings were read showing scales of minimum prices and mentioning percentages to be charged for overhead expenses.
 One of the most fragrant Combina- tions yet uncovered by the inVeStl- gation was the roofers and sheet metal workers association. MT. Untermyer said. Testimony of Herman Vein berger, secretary of the association "Business Mems Club" showed, coun- sel declared that the sole reason for the organization was to boost prices

Capper Demands Repeal of Rail road Guaranty and Reduced
 Freight Rates.

Washington, May 13.-Relief "from
 the intolerab1e railway rates that have brought on business stagnation throughout the country" was urged by MT. Capper in senate speech: The Kansas lawmaker has introduced bill which would repeal the 6 per
 cent. guarante to railroad stockhold- CTS.
 "I have never known a more alarm
 ing situation, so far as the business
 of the west is concerned,' he said. "The people have paid the railroads nearly $Iooo, ,ooo, 900 within the last few years by way of a government guaranty. On top of that they have
 paid higher rail rates, amounting to
 from 50 to 83 per cent.
 "When railroads get more for
 hauling farm products than the pro-
 ducers are paid for producing them it Is evident that freight rates are
 entirely too high. Texas rice grow CTS can ship rice across the ocean to Liverpool and from Liverpool back to New, York cheaper than they can ship 1t by rail direct from Beaumont. Texas, to New York Cotton can be shipped from Galveston to Bremen, a distance of 5000 miles, for 35 cents
 hundred pounds. But to ship by
 rail a bail of cotton from the interior
 of Texas a distance of 300 miles costs o5 cents a hundred-about three times as much.
 Spinach cabbage and onions rot in the fields of Texas; hay and corn are wasting in Kansas; fruits are stacked in California, and hides are going to waste in all parts of the country because these products can not be shipped over American rail
 roads at profit. Mr. President, noth- ing Is going to be gained by main ] taining rail rates at point which
 makes the railways too expensive for | the people to use.
 1 "The way out is to encourage the people to use the railroads by mak-
 ing 1t possible for them to ship
 goods and travel; 10 give business a chance to create more business.
 There is no profit in rusting rails for anvbOdv"

that scarcely ever fails to get inter

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves

so the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the alimentary canal q
certain amount of indigestible ma
terial, which If not completely olimina-

comes food for the millions OF bacteria
which infest the bowels. From this
mass of leftover waste toxins and
