The top coat built on sports lines
is finding favor with the school girl
and the business woman, for it is in
expensive and smart looking. When
one invests in one of these "Chappie"
coats as n Cleveland designer has
called his models. one may still afford
a pretty and graceful fur trimmed
wrap for more dressy occasions.
Mixture. tweeds. green and brown
heather cloths, many double faced or
showing an overplaid as does the
one in the illustration. are used to
fashion these utility coats. They are
usually rather short and swagger,
often with an inverted pleat in the
back. This n pictured has q belt,
a convertible collar Of .nutria. and
deep pockets give additional comfort.
1t is roomy enough to be worn over
the tailored suit on coolest days or
when milady would travel.

SENATE COMMITTEE OPENS
 HEARINGS ON RAILROADS

Washington. May 10.-Senate investi- gators charged with the duty of finding an answer to the question of what is the trouble with American railroads began work today and beard the first witness Julius kruttschnltt. chairman of the board of the Southern Pacific Company, whose statement was unfinished when the session was adjourned.
 Chairman Cummins of the senate in- terstate commerce committee read the resolution authorizing the inquiry.
 Reading Consolidated earnings state ments of the country's railroads for the last eight years, each showing a pro gressive incdease in the expense pro portion, Chairman Cummins said that the gravity of the situation before the American people is apparent if our na- tional transportation industry has be- come permanently an unproftable busi- ness"
 Operating expenses. consuming norm ally around 6 per cent of railroad re- ceipts, he said. consumed more than 90 per cent. of the revenues for the year ending March 1, last. though the gross receipts of S6,175o00, ,oeo that year were the largest on record, and could never be made larger. in his opinion. by higher rates on the same volume of traffic. The committee. he said. would therefore seeI 10 determine whether "these revenue! havv been efficiently wisely and properl! expended, since we must look to reduced expenditure for re N if we cannot hop, to raise revenues h.1ler."
 Mir. Kruttschnitt was prompt with ar answer to the cause of disappearing earnings.
 Since the passage of the Adamsoi law in 1916," he said the labor costs O | railroad operation have been increased b, government action s2,229, 900 annual ly."
 In the discussion which followed MT Kruttschnitt emphasized his conclusion | that reduction of labor charges, whicl he said. showed abnormal increase" wa l the only method of increasing net earn | lngs.
 Mr Kruttschnitt defended presen l standards of freight rates declaring tha | they had not appreciably increased abov the rise in other prices.

The chief witness for the state was Sam Fisher, who described himself as the chief slugger of the strike" During {. his three days of testimony Fisher named various prices alleged to have
 been paid for sluggings ranging from l s25 up. The average was about $40, he said. but varied according to the ease with which the man could be slugged land the prominence of the person to bt | attacked.

HILLEs WOULD HOLD SOUTH's
 REPRESENTATION IN CONVENTION

New York, May 1O.-Charles D. Hilles, republican national committeeman from i! New York and former national committee chairman, tonight voiced his opposition to any effort 10 revise downward the s5uth's representation at the national convention in 1924-a subject which wills be up for l consideration when the committee meets in Washington June s.
 As he will be unable to attend the 1 meeting, he made known his attitude in a letter to George A. Glynn, chairman of tn republican state committee whom he named as his proxy Mir Hilles sailed . Thursday for Europe.
 He asserted there is no occas for further surgical operation In the south, Q particularly as the party there has gain ed by leaps and bounds and deserves en- Icouragement rather than repression.
 Unless some member of the commit
 tee has devised more reasonable method
 of representation, he wrote we should think, provide in the call for the con- vention of 1924 that each state shall elect ! four delegates at large; each congress district one delegate; each district [ which cast 10000 votes or over for MT. Harding one additional delegate; and make an entirely new provision for the election of still another delegate, or three in all from ever congress district which wa sso robust in it's republicanism in 1920 as 10 top the 30,000 mark
 ''The number of delegates which this plan would add to the convention cannot now be stated. Certainly. it would not add so many as to make the convention i unwieIdy.
 1 Tt is clear that the districts which | gave MT. Harding more than 3o.OOO votes i lie in the north and west The states in l which the party is in an anaemic condi- | tion would not benefit from the proposed 1 new rule. The advantages of the plar i that the great republic districts would i become more potent in the councils of the | party, that we would obviate the clain i that the south is to be too mucR repre.
 sented for, nlanfestly, the influence ot l the north and west will be increased without giving offense and without re. tarding the growth of the republican sen. timent in any stat; and what is nor | important, it will be possible for the party to recognize the desire and tn, right of women to participate in nominat ing conventions.
 "As the women advance in the master,
 of yhe problems of practical politics anc of statecraft they will be entitled to par
 ticipate actively in conventions, and onl
 by enlarging out numbers can We mak
 their participation three years benc practically possible"
 He declared any movement seeking +o re
 duce southern representation would ere
 ate greater disparity between the mn,
 Der of delegates from republican state
 and those from states where renr1blicar n
 ism seems hopeless.

OPPOSITION IS EXPRESSED
 TO A GENERAL SALES TAX

Washington, May 10.-Opposition to enactment of general sales tax law deeloped today at a hearing before the sente finance committee.
 The strongest opposition to 2 low cn gross sales was offered by R. G. Elliott, of Chicago. representing the N1t,onal As sociation of credit men. It's application to government regulated industries also was attacked by Phillip IT. Garsden, of Philadelphia, who spoke for the National Electric Light Association. the American Gas Association and the American Elec- trc Railway Association.
 Mir Elliott laid down several specific reasons against employment of the new form of taxation He declared it would require an enti"Rv new tax collection machine and would be difficult of deini- tion so that its administration would be an added burden on the internaal revenue bureau.
 Mir. Garsden declared 1t a physical i'm ! possibility to assess a sales tax on street i car fares or an electricity or gas through | prepayment meters. He also told the committee of the requirements of regu- l lated industries and urged the appoint 1 ment of a subcommittee to make a | thorough and broad study of taxation ot | public utilities.
 The committee adjourned the hearing: until Friday when other opponents of 2 1 sales tax are expected to be heard.
