YUKON FREIGHT RATES
 ARE SLIGHTLY CHANGED

According to rate sheets received iD Juneau from the headquarters of the White Pass and Yukon Route, several important changes have been made as compared to the rates in vogue during last year.
 The main changes are as follows
 Via St. Michael-The carload spe- cial commodity rate expires July 31, instead of August 10 From July 31 to August 10 the regular tariff will rule. Ca August II there will be an advance of $10 per ton, in stead of $5 on all classes and spe- oial commodity does not apply. The base rate has not been announced, but will be some time later

ing and his internal onal family"
have gone back to France, where
the romance started when he was
fighting with the Seventy-seventh
United States division, which he
had joined in New York.
Hooking is a British subject, his
wife a native of Nancy, France.
They were married at Nancy after
the armistice. The first child was
born in France. They came to
America. The second child was
born here.
Hooking could find no work in
America. The little family was
having hard struggle in New
York until their plight was discoV-
cred by Miss Ray c. Sawyer, ex-
ecutive secretary of New YORK
American legion. Through her ef-
forts the Hooking children were
provided with clothing and the
family was given money for their
return to France.
When they reached Cherbourg,
Hooking had three dollars. His
plight was as bad as 1t was in
America. But at that stage of the
Journey an envelope was thrust
into his hands. 1t contained rail-
road transportation for the entire
family to Nancy and 500 francs
and the cards Of Douglas Fairbanks
and Mary Pickford.

Speeding up Freight.
1.-THE third step would be that
of expediting the journey of the
freight carrier. BY speeding up
our freight over the preliminary
part of it's journey on the D. T,
and I. we have shortened the time
of its delivery by from seven to
fourteen days. This means our
product gets TO the people from
seven to fourteen days quicker
than it used to. 1t means we
carry on our hooks $30,000.000
less undelivered products than
otherwise.
Most railroads have enough
lawyers working for them to OPP
crate them If they were engaged
in useful work. One of the first
things is to dispense with the
legal staff. A we'll managed road
needs less of that sort of service.
The lawyers are mostly in the
claims department, one Of the
most wasteful branches of rail-
road operation. Any small claim
against n railroad is likely to

many times as much as 1t would

Washington, Oct, 25.-Henry

how he would run a. big railroad.
Mr.. Ford's operation of his own
road, the Jetroit, Toledo & Iron

discussion.
First of all, he says, he would
ret rid of the individual stockhold-

then he would turn to lighter roll
ing stock, and finally fire usless
employees, especially the lawyers"
Finance as it applies to railroads
he says, is a failure, and the roads
spend money uselessly in red tape,
particularly in accounting.
"Real purposes of a railroad u"

There is no reason why it should
be diverted from that service a
