CHARGE RAILROADS
 COERC|NC BOARD
(Py United Pressl

Chicago, Feb. 3-The railroads of the country, in their efforts to drive down wages, are trying to coerce the railroad labor board to disregard the provisions of the Esch- Cummings law union leaders charged in a statement presented to the board today.
 E. P. Grable, head of the union of unskilled and maintenance of way laborers and shop workers, went be- fore the board today to answer petition filed by the railroads last week, asking for an order to reduce wages of these workmen. Grable charged that the railroads are at tempting to "trample under their feet and disregard the rights of laborers who have submitted their interests to the labor board for adjudication.

SENATE MAJORITY IN
 HOLE ON TARIFF BILL
iRv Irnited Press ]

Washington, Feb. 3.-Leadership of the senate majority has been put in hole" as a result of the failure of efforts to shut off debate on the Ford ney emergency bill, leading Republi- can senators confessed today. The principal difficulty is that the tariff bill is before the senate and threatens to stay there for some time, while the Republican leaders are eager to clean up the appropriation bills before the present session of congress dies on March 4.
 With the tariff fight threatening tc prevent action on the big supply bills, Republican leaders held conferences last night and today, but the way out of the dilemma was apparently block ed, it was stated by those attending the conferences.

TAX
 TO BE RAISED
 10 l-5 OF MILL

The millage tax for the maintenance of the Arkansas State Normal School will be increased from one-ninth to one-ffth mill beginning with next year, according to a recommendation made by the senate committee on revenue this morning
 The bill as introduced by Senator George F. Hartje provided for a maintenance tax of two-ninths mill or double the present rate. The com mittee's recommendation is only slightly less and will amount to diff ference in income of only about $10,, 900 year, and if the assessments are increased in the state, the net revenue will probably equal the amount which would be secured by two- ninths mill on the basis of the pres, ent assessment.
 Pres. B. W. Torreyson was inform. ed of the committees action over the long g-distance telephone today and he said it would be entirely satisfac tory to the Normal board. Senator Hartje will call up the bill for concur renee in the committee amendment this afternoon and hopes to get it passed tomorrow. Mathematical sharks at the Normal have figured the difference between two-ninths and one-fifth mill is only one-forty-fifth mill, President Torreyson said.
 Two appropriation bills for the State Normal, one for s2O0,000 for erection of two additional dormitories and one for S14,00O for the purchase of the Caddo Club building, are in the hands of the budget committee and are expected to be reported at an early date. These appropriations are to be paid out of the general revenue and will not come from the Normals millage tax.

Washington, Feb. 3.-The United States must continue it's program of building battleships until it has a navy equal to that of the strongest in the world, the general board of ths navy department declared in special report to Secretary Josephus Daniels, which was made public today
 It would be the height of unwisdom for this country to pin it's faith upon aircraft or submarines as having re- placed battleships, the report says, Battleships are still the most powerful engine of naval warfare, the board declares.

STORY OF MARRIED !. LIFE |S FEATURE AT COLUMBIA TODAY

There never has been 6 stronger or more significant drama of married life than Poverty and Riches" now showing at Mauk's Columbia theater, and there never has been story more delicately told in pictures. The manner in which Goldwyn has han dled this intimate theme is a model for all producers. The message in Poverty of Riches" is endorsed by all societies, organizations and indi- viduals who are concerned with the welfare of the American people.
 Both sides of the vital question, which is more important-success or babies? are presented fearlessly and in manner free from censure. by contrasting the lives of two families. One poor in worldly goods but boun- tifully rich in happiness derived from their children. while the other. rich beyond all want, as some men measure riches are in reality infi- nitely poorer than their friends who have nothing.
 Poverty of Riches" is a Reginald Barker production, and is presented by a real all star cast which includes five players who are usually seen in leading parts, Richard Dix. Leatrice Joy, John Bowers and Louise Lovely, play the parts of the two families,

Mellon The certificates are to mature in five years and bear interest at ths rate of about 3z pen cent com pounded semi-annually if redeemed before maturity.

 The small wartime treasury se- curities, he added, comprising the 25-cent thrift stamp and the s5 war savings stamp are being discontin- ued. effective December 31. but those outstanding will be accepted at.facs value for the new securities or will be redeemed at cash at their face value at postoffices.
