new RAILROAD RULE
WILL BE ENFORCED
Presidential Veto Placed On
Amendment Affecting
Carriers.

ashington.-President Wilson We
toed Tuesday the joint resolution de
signed to suspend a section of the
Clayton act, prohibiting common car
riers from dealing with any concern
having interlocking directories with
the carrier except to limited extent
as to contracts.
The measure vetoed was senate bill
No 1926, amending section SOL of the
transportation act by extending the
effective date of section 10 of the
Clayton act. The history of the Clay
ton bill as given in the presidents
message reveals that the act became
law on October Is, 1914, and it was
| provided that section 10 should not
become effective until two years af-
ter that date, in order that the car
riers and others affected might be
able to adjust their affairs so that
no inconvenience or confusion might
result.
Further extension of time, amount
ing in all to more than four years.
and two months, have since been
made. These were in part due to the
institution of federal control, but 10
months have now elapsed since the re-
sumption of private operation In all,
over six years have elapsed since this
enactment was put upon the statute
books, so that all interests concerned
have had long and ample notice of the
obligations it imposes"
In his message returning the reject
ed bill, the president mentioned, |
among reasons for his Veto the opin- |
ion that business waits for laws, |
which will effectually prohibit and |
prevent such interlockings of the per-
sonnet of the directorates of great
orporations-banks and railroads, in
dustrial, commercial and public serv-
ice bodies-as in effect result in MAX
ing those who borrow and those who
lend practically one and the same;
those who sell and those who buy but

other under different names, and in
different combinations, and those who

Society Gives Up SMOKING

Smoking has become such a bour-
geois habit that many women of the
London aristocracy who have been us
ing tobacco are now stunning il, at
least IN public. Medical men here
have warned women frequently since
the war about the evil effects of over
Indulgence in cigarettes, but it was
not unit, smoking became a bourgeois
habit that any difference was noticed
in the smoking habits of women of
the So-called upper ten"
AT the moment the use of tobacco
by women has become abnormal be-
sides, many tobacconists are manufac-
turing small briar pipes for feminine
use. This has made the habit too COM
mon to please certain figures in so
ciety and, in consequence, they have
given up the weed AT some aristo-
cratic garden parties recently few if
any women of the elect ventured to
smoke openly. So what medical men
have been unable to do by their warn
ing is being rapidly accomplished by
class pride.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

That Word "Hospitai."

One of the features of an ancient
Roman home We're the "hospitalia,
Or apartments set aside for strangers
or "hoSpes." Hence, in its Original
meaning the word hospital" was APP
piled to places where strangers were
received and kindly entertained. The
commonly restricted use of the term
to designate places where sick strang-
ers were received was an after de-
velopment.
The word came to us directly from
the French, who got it from the Ro-
mans. 1t is derived, of course, from
the same root as "hospitable. The
name "Hospitaler" was borne with
pride by several semi-religious and
semi-1nilitary orders, like the knights
OF st. John or the Knights of Malta,
who made it business to relieve the
poor, the strangers and the sick.
1t is worth noting that the first
hospital for diseased men and ami
mails was established by the Buddhists
in HiEdustan.

Even the movies have their utili-

town not long ago.

the director was to build the houses o..

completed. Certain residents of the
town, however, were possessed with
foresight, says the New York Sun. The
township was suffering from building
restriction, and some one figured that
the movie men could build their vii
lage Of slightly more substantial ma
terial at comparatively little in
creased cost. The proposition was put
to the director, who agreed to let the
town supply him with materials and
labor ON a proportionate basis.
AS result the town has added near
ly twenty new houses and twenty new
families have moved In, paying the
township only slightly more than the
property was worth. The township
taxes the houses, the housing situation
is relieved, the movie men have van
ished and everybody is happy.

INVARIABLY SEEK HIGH POINT
Wr,ter Who Claims to Know Pointz
Out Error to Which Lost Per-
sons Are Inclined.

The recent discovery Of the skelenon
o. d lost child on the summit of the
highest mountain i'll the Bennachie
group in Aberdeenshire holds no mys-
terry for an Australian bushman.
The skeleton is supposed to be that
of two-year-old child lost seven years
ago from a farm two miles away, and
at the time of the disappearance there
we're apparently a number of theories
put forward for the loSs-that the
child had been stolen by gypsies, eaten
alive by pigs or carried away by an
eagle
But had man experienced in the
behavior Of lost children been asked
what was likely to have become of the
lost infant he would have said,
Search all the highest points within
few miles, and on one of them, IN
less he has persisted on the way, you
will find the lost child"
In countries like Australia, where
there are still vast tracts of partially
settled country, the danger of getting
bushed," as it is called, is still a real
one.
1t is not always children who get
PUSHED either. But, adult or child,
unless the lost person has bush expert
ence, he seems to lose his head at
once and begins to walk and walk.
II the country is fiat, the lost per-
son walks in circle; if it is noun
famous, he mounts and mounts as
high as he can get. He seems to get
demented as he grows more exhausted
and the realization of his probable
fate becomes more clear. An hour or
two before he succumbs he gets rid
OF his clothes. The majority Of lost
people are found naked.
