!. . BIG RAILROADS
NINETEEN SYSTEMS ARE PRO-
POSED FOR coUNTRY's RAIL
WAY sYsTEMs-IDEA AU-
nEDORIZED BY TRANSPORTA-
TON ACT. -.

washington, Sept. 2S..-The inter-
state commerce commission today
announced tentative plans for con-
sulldating all Of the major railroads
of the United States into nineteen
great systems, and gave notice that
hearings would be called upon it in
the near future. ~
The step was taken under provi-
sinns .: of the transportation act
vhieh SalFows the consolidation, if
voluntary with the railroads con-
aerned. The proposals now put for
ward by the commission follow. in
ulem ain plans prepared under its
direction by. Prof. William z. Ripley,
IF Hatvard. -
The commissions proposed nine7
teen systems, as outlined today, pros.
vide for retention of. the competi-
tive arrangement of transportation
Ines, giving most sections of the;
eountfy access to two or. more Of
the great routes devised. The princi-
PIE followed in making up the con-
snFidations was that of hitching
weaker and less profitable roads to
nnre prosperous competitors or
cannections, at the same time main
tzining the identity very largely of
existing great railroads. In some
szses branch lines of existing roads
are suggested for divorce from pres
emf owners and sttachment to other
gsfems, with re-s.rrangement of ter
minal facilities.
1t S expected that the plan with
zHernative arrangements which the
enmmission has suggested, particu-
Ear1y with reference to New England
WiI be under consideration and ar
gument for prolonged period,
zince permisson of the commission
and consent of the railroads is re-
smred to every detail before it can
1e put into operation. The voluntary
consolidation plan was adopted by
aangress ass possible means of IA
elfiis elfiitszintng ting the operation of the Ameri-
aan transportation system under
Eate regulation, on the theory that
Eates allowed by the interstate COM
1cIge commission were being found
sufficient to give adequate earnings
Tn strong lines, while weaker roads
m tie same territory could not show
su6icient earnings to continue opera
si6ns.
The consolidation proposed fer
system No. II, as given in the de-
tailed plan, includes the Atlantic
etzzt Line and its subsidiaries, At

Mrs. Edward Hueston, 6145 N. Cleveland avenue, Philadelphia, tells an interesting story of what Wincar- his did in helping restore her to health.
 For long time Mrs. Hueston had been in poor health, being much run down and suffering from nervousness. After trying many tonics, without re- suit, she one day, while reading her daily paper, saw one of the advertise ments of Wincarnis and decided to try a small bottle.
 In Mrs. Hueston's own words, 'I took a small bottle and it seemed to do me good. so I bought a large one and within a week I began to feel much better. l started to sleep and eat much better, and my nerves quieted down. After taking three bottles, I felt better than T had for years. Wincarnis is certainly a won derful tonic."
 Mrs. Hueston's is only one of many similar cases benefited by the use of

RAYMOND SHADES
STANLEY THIS TIME

Before a crowd OF some 100 fans
the st. Hedwigs A. A. held its first
smoker Of the season last night at
Modjeska Hall In the main bout
Ralph Raymond earned a shade over
Steve Stanley after a gruelling six
rounds of mitt mixing. Raymond
who used a jab throughout showed TO
better advantage at close quarters
Stanley proved that he is the goods,
carrying a kick In either hand which
makes him dangerous at all times.
Due TO his long lay-on from the ring
he could not do himself justice.
The substitute bout between Ted
Pennock and frankie Nero was a
thriller. with Pennock on the long
end all the way. He had Nero
bleeding badly when the referee
stopped the bout
The preliminaries were fast and
interesting. especially the bout be-
tween Joe Bannock and X. O. Jor-
dan with Bannock getting the de-
cision. Bannock looks like a conner
as he packs a wsllop In both mitts.
Sammy Britton refereed all the
bouts.
Several musical and vocal selec-
tions we're on the program and kept
the crowd entertained between the
bou6, the musical numbers OF the
St. HedwiEs trio being worthy OF
professionals.
