BEGINS PRESENTATION
 0 FLABOR'S CAUSE

Washington, October 1b.--PreSen- tation of labor's case In the Senate interstate commerce committees in- vestigation of general railroad con ditions was begun today by Frank J. Warne, statistician for the railroad brotherhoods.
 Charges were made by MT. Warne that misleading and incorrect figures regarding railroad operation re- ceipts and net income had been pre- scented to the committee during re- cent months by the railway execu- tives. The executives, he said, had submitted statistical fallacies.
 mass of information and detailed charges designed to prove inaccur- acies in the executives figures were presented by the witnsse, who dnied that the railroads had suffered heavy losses from government control and said their revenues during the war were the largest in history.
 MT. Warne declared that to secure rate increase from the interstate commerce commiss.on, the railroads had spent excessive amounts for maintainence without necessity and that the land grant" railroads profited doubly during the war con trol period by receiving rates without any reduction for their land grants from the government. In recent yeasr, MT. Warns stated they had made large expenditures for per- manent improvement, paying for them out of operating revenues and charging them as expenses of oper- ation He also charged that roads had manipulated maintenance ac- counts so as to affect favorably or adversely their net operating revenue and income results. These were de- pressed arbitrarily. h said, dur ing periods when the carriers were seek ing rate increases before the inter stat commerce commission.
 Mir. Warn will continue his testi- mony next week.

Judge Kimball is Made Supreme Judge

District Judge Ralph Kimball of Ian
der becomes the new associate justice
of the state supreme court. Governor
X. ID. Carey announced the appoint
ment last week.
Judge Kimball succeeds the late
Chief Justice Cyrus Beard, who pass
ed away at Cheyenne ten days ago
shortly after he had been reelected for
another term on the bench. Under the
Wyoming law the position of chief JUS
tice alternates among the three mem
bers of the tribunal and the law also
provides that upon the death of the
chief. the next man in line succeeds
to that place. The appointment of an
associate Justice then becomes neces-
sary. Upon the death of Judge Beard,
Judge G. \. Potter of Cheyenne auto
matically became the chief Justice.
