RAILWAY OFFICIAL
Executive Committee of Rail-

Consider Rates Situation.

Merger of the two street car com.

The executive committee of the

construction costs to the Capital

unless the railway company is al

property there can be no merger, the
official said. There can be no merger
until the railway company and the

that the stakeholder of the railway

VETERANS OPPOSE
DEbS' PARDON IN
HARDING Letter
Foreign Wars Organization
Takes Issue With Private Sol

Opposition to the pardoning OF Eu-

to President Harding yesterday by Ed.
ward s. Bethlehem, tr.. chairman OF
the national legislative committee or
the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
Bettelheim takes issue with Marvin
G.. Sperry. national president OF the
Private Soldiers and Sailors League,
who recently advocated a pardon for
Debs.
I'VE are convinced that the biggest
part OF the former service men ana
women are opposed to the pardoning
OF Debs," Mr.. Bethlehem declares. The
letter to President Harding follows:
The attention of the Veterans OF
Foreign Wars of the United States was
called to the statement of Mr.. Marvin

Private Soldiers and Sailors Legion.
made public yesterday as being the
context OF a letter from him to yourself
on the case of Eugene v. Debs. whose
plea for pardon is undoubtedly before
you.
THE position taken by Mr.. Sperry
In extremely unfortunate. His conten-
ton that the statement made by Major
John q. Emery, national commander
of the American Legion. was 'deltber-
ately malicious and misleading when
the latter announced that he was ex,
pressing the sentiments Of the great
mass OF former service men and wom-
en-. Is inadvisedly taken. Mr.. Emery's
action was not taken until a referen-
dunn was received by wire from all
State departments.
THE Veterans of Eoreign Wars
takes issue with Mr.. Sperry and de-
sires to firmly and forc.bly back up the
statement of Mr.. Emery. We are con-
WINGED that the biggest part OF the for.
nner service men and women are OPP
posed to the pardoning Of Eugene V.
Debs, and we desire to add the weight
of the opinions Of thousands of mem
bers of This organization to those Of
the legion In urging you to guard true
patriotism and Americanism for which
the veterans fought. We are not con-
WINGED that Mr.. Debs is worthy Of a
pardon"

OF. PAPER
MAKING SHOWN IN
WINDOW DISPLAYS
R. P. Andrews Company Traces
Lie Of Letter Heads From
Forests to Waste Basket.

Little Rollo and his big sister, Ethel.
the steno, who may have been enter
tanning false impressions on the matter
of making bond letter-size sheets of
paper, are offered a liberal education
this week through the unique display
in the windows of the r. p. Andrews
Paper Company. 727 Thirteenth street
northwest.
This idea that a bunch of huskies go
into letterhead forest and chop down
q few bond trees, mince the wood in
monster meat grinder, add a little Ice
water to the mash and pour the syrup
into flat molds-'sall wrong.
In the special display at the local
paper headquarters, there are samples
Of every ingredient necessary to turn
out 100 pounds of bond paper, from
the wood. whose substance forms the
base Of the paper, to the wood neces'
sary to crate the finished product for
shipment.
Here's what Il takes to make 10000
sheets of bond OF the commercial let
ter size. s1a inches by II inches:
Pulp wood, 1914 cubic feet; sulphur
1871 pounds; limestone, 17.5 pounds
Kerosene, 5.07 ounces; bleaching pow
der, 14.3 pounds; rosin, 8 pounds; soda
SIS pounds; alum, AZ pounds; color
l.s ounce; iron sulphate. 10 ounce
copper sulphate, 10 ounce; lime. 3.17
ounces; coal, 800 pounds; felt betting
80 square inches: wire betting, 81 Gu
bic centimeters; lubricating oil, 22C
cubic centimeters, and $500 gallons
Of chemically purified and filtered
water.
So every time a stenographer goes
home all tired out and spends the
evening talking about the 10000 let.
tiers she typed during the day. she can
consider she has taken a mean wal.
lop at the chemical family.
The intrusion of the kerosene oil
can into the business of paper manu-
featuring seems odd until IL IL ex
planned that kerosene is used to clean
the wire betting used in the process
Of rolling out the paper in sheet form
Accompanying the Andrews window
display Is a picture of the massive
machine which turns this freak as.
sortment of chemicals into the fine
bond of the morning mail. The ma.
chine turns out enough paper to pro.
vide 10000 letterheads in less than
five minutes.
The novel display has been interest.
ing many washingtonisns. and the
variety OF materials needed in the
manufacture of 100 pounds of paper
has caused much surprise. The dis.
play will remain on exhibition for sew.
