 Senator Trammell said increased wages to employees was the reason given Tor the rate increase. and he quoted fig- ures published at the time of the last freight rate raises. which, he said, showed only 16 per cent of the increase went to labor.
 "If you want to start slashing wages let's begin at the top of the list" the Florida senator asserted and cut some of these $50,000 salaries to big officials.
 The wages paid to employees in con sidering the dangers to which they were exposed and the kind of work they did the senator added, was not excessive.
 Rates should be reduced, Senator Tram mell continued adding that the roads could haul citrus fruits from his state al lower rates if they would adopt policy of Hive and let live"

 MAKES DAUGHTER HAPPY
Gadsden Man Succeeds In Securing
 Valuable Violin for Her

I Gadsden, February 21.-f Spectal,) - " ou're the finest Dada, in the wosia and I am so happy" was the message l received today by J. Nader. a locai l business man, from his daughter, Miss
 Charlotte Nader, who Is a talented violinist at present studying in New
 York The message followed her re- ciept of a priceless violin, Nicalau Gaglianus, made in Naples in 1734 and which had been found only after five years of the most relentless search ana the expenditure of a large sum o1 money.
 Miss Nadier is known througout th- country for her talent And she has been unable to give full and free ex :
 pression of her art owing to the ab
 sence of the proper violin. A Gaglia-
 nus has been her dream. Its tones bleni perfectly with her artist's soul and without it her magnificent expression suffers.
 Her father has been searching two continents for a Gaglianus and after
 many other violins, themselves almost priceless, had been rejected and hope had almost deserted him in his search, , a New York firm produced the old violin from some obscure corner of the earth.
