The witness went into detail in con-
sideration of the accounting practices
OF the railroads. citing illustrations
to show how the officials had inflated
the property investment. He said that
the railroads had attempted to secure
"legalization" Of their property in
vestrnent account from the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and added
that these efforts were "uncere-
moniously kicked out of court"
The witness said further that many
railroads had invested money in Sc

Britain's Birth
Rate Heaviest Ever

London, March O. The num-
Der of births in England and VALE S
In 1920 is the highest ever record
ed and the death rate the lowest.
These are two OF the remarkable
comments made by the ministry of
health in their report of last years
births and deaths.
In England and Wales the birth
rate per thousand of the total
population was 26.44 and deaths
under one year so per 1000 births.
"One reason for the higher
birth rate is to be found in earlier
marriages" said DIR. Mary Schar-
heb, a famous woman doctor.
THE war has acted as a stimu-
lus in this direction. Young cou-
pies are reader to marry than
probably they ever were. The man
who was cut off from all home
life during the war came back
yearning for a home, wife and
children of his own.

AND BEANS FOR
BUSINESS TALK

Members of the Exchange club, at
noon today in the Rock Island club,
heard fellow clubman, Roy Dehler,
speak on Are You Rattlfng Up, or
Shaking Down."
Mr.. Dehler illustrated his re-
marks by the use of globe, con-
tanning walnuts and beans The
beans covered the wainuts. but
when the globe was shaken the wal
nuts appeared.
From this, the speaker drew the
lesson that men who can endure
the vicissitudes of business life will
emerge successfully in spite of the
fact that they are sometimes appar-
entity covered with much that would
keep an ordinary man down.
Members discussed the project
preached at the last meeting of TAX
ing steps to have the Rock Island
arsenal designated for the use OF
a vocational training school for ex-
service men who are disabled.

Mr.. Whitson in giving the history
of the meat industry, stated thai
only SIS per cent of the average
beef is saleable after being dressed
Only $50 pounds of meat from a
steer weighing 1000 pounds is put
upon the market.
Meat of the choicer cuts is high
because the meat in the forequarter
is ignored to such a large extent
by purchasers. The price will
come down in proportion to the
consumption of meat from the fore
quarter. Mr.. Whitson stated that
hides, which sold during the war
for SO cents a pound, now bring
only 8 to cents a pound.
