CRASH KILLS ONE
INJURIES ANOTHE R
AIR BRAKES FAIL ON SOUTH
ERIN PACIFIC FREIGHT AND
CAUSE A SMASHUP
AT WELLS

Nina Thompson, of Kearney, Ne
braska, was killed, and Charles Al
den of the same place was probably
fatally injured last night near Wells,
when extra freight 5000 crashed
into the caboose of extra 2546 on
the siding demolishing the caboose,
four cars of hogs, ard three other
mixed cars. Both trains were GO
ing west.
1t was case of an engine operat-
ing when it should be tied up for
repairs. Engineer O'Hara, who was
running the engine of the freight
behind was coming down the hill
into Wells. He received the signal
to stop by the fagman of the train
ahead. He applied the air brakes
but with no results. He then made
frantic efforts to bring the train to
stop but to no avail.
The engine crashed into the ca
boose, which was occupied by the
two men whose names are given
above, and who were travelling as
caretakers for the stock. Thomp-
son was killed outright, and Alden
was rushed to the office of DR.. Ohm
stead of Wells. He is not expected
to live. The three cars of hogs
were entirely demolished killing all
the stock.
Twenty rail lengths of track were
plowed up in the smashup, and
train service was help up for nearly
six hours.
Undertaken Keyser departed for
the scene of the tragedy this morn
ing and will prepare the body of
the dead man for shipment east.
The board of inquiry will look
into the accident this afternoon, and
endeavor to place the responsibility
for the same. No estimate of the
damage could be obtained this
morning although it will probably
run into quite figure.-Elko Free

COMPETITION is THE LIFE OF TRADE


That was the theory of the law when the United
States Supreme Court compelled the Union Pacific
to sell all its interest in the Southern Pacific 1t was
the theory OF the law when the suit to compel the
unmerger OF the Southern Pacific and the Central
Pacific was inaugurated 1t is the theory of the law
today and the Transportation Act of 1920 has not
changed that theory.
Paragraph of Section of the TRANSPORTATION
Act OF 1920 reads as follows:
1.-The Commission shall, practicable prepare and
the divisions of Of such railways PLAN
@ the be and channels Of
Statement of George B. McCinty,. Secretary Inter-
state Commerce Commission, June 20, 1922
This is the first requirement with which the COM
mission must comply in preparing plan for con-
solldating the railway properties into a limited
number OF systems. The commissions tentative
scheme for consolidation is for the guidance only of
railroads. The tentative plan was put forward in
order to elicit full record upon which the plan to
be ultimately adopted can rest, and without pre-
judgment ae OF any matter which may be presented
The Supreme Courts decision divorcing the Cen
trail Pacific from the Southern Pacific necessarily
will be considered by the commission when evil
oence IS received pertinent to railway properties in
western territory The joint operation of these two
roads has been declared by the court to be in re-
straint OF competition. The commission is Obliged
to abide by the provision of the law that competi-
ton must be preserved and must recognize that
prerequisite to consultations before recommending
or approving any groupings to be announced in its
final report. - '''
:, Professor Ripley included the Central Pacific in
tne Unlon Paclilc consolidation as he evidently en-
tertans the opinion that it's proper place with re-
spect to the transportation needs to the territory in
question is in that proposed grouping. While the
commission is not in any way bound to accept Pro-
lessor hipleys plan as other than suggestive, the
commission as part of the government, and like anv
corporation, partnership individual must be gov
erned by an opinion of the Supreme Court. Altern-
alive action however, only may be determined
upon by the commission after all parties who desire
to do so have presented evidence Shippers will
have full! opportunity to be heard before this pro-
ceeding is closed. pio

GOOD ROADS SHOW 10 SURPASS ALL
 FORMER C0NFABS
Will Be Held InI Chicago In January-Many Fine Things Scheduled For Delegates.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30. (SpeciaD- With an organization that promises to be one hundred per cent effective in perfecting arrangements now un- der way, the Thirteenth American Good Roads Congress and Fourteenth National Good Roads Show to be held in Chicago, January 18th to 18th next will by far eclipse in program and attendance any good roads meeting in the world. Both events will be held under the auspices of the American Road Builders Association, the larg- est and oldest good roads organiza- tion in the country. Road builders to the number of 11,00O will hold their twentieth annual convention in Chi cago during the congress. Many prominent speakers will attend, in- cluding high officials of the Federal Government, several governors, hun dreds of state highway officials and mayors of American and Canadian cities as we'll as thousands of engi- neers, contractors and good road en- thusiasts.
 It is the inten';;on this year to sep arate the congress and show by hold ing the former at the Congress Hotel and the latter at the Chicago Coliseum This arrangement will obviate the necessity of shutting down the oper- ating machinery during the sessions and eliminate the noise that has prov ed SO annoying to speakers and dele gates heretofore.
 Shortly after his election, Thomas J. Wasser, state highway engineer Trenton, N. J., president of the Am erican Road Builders Association for 1922-1923, appointed to the executive committee the following: Charles M. Upham, state highway engineer for North Carolina; James H. MacDon- aid, consulting highway engineer, New Haven, Conn.,, and J. H. Cranford of the Cranford Paving company, Wash ington, D. c. B y reason of his po- sition as secretary, E. L. Powers be- came ex-officio a member of the com mittee.
 This committee, acting for the American Road Builders association, appointed Messrs. Upham and Mac Donald, and the Highway Industries Exhibitors association designated its president, s. F. Beatty, vice -presi- dent of the Austin Western Road
 Machinery company, Chicago, to act
 as a committee having general charge
 of the arrangements for both show
 and congress.
 This committee has created severa sub-committees to have charge of tn, various detailed arrangements as fol lows: Transportation committee
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1922-12-01

Royal M. Allen, Chicago, chairman; general publicity committee, s. T. Henry, New York, chairman, W. R. Harris, Chicago, chairman; exhibitors committee, c. R. Ege, Chicago, chair man; entertainment committee, A. c. Cronkrite, Chicago, chairman; recep- tion and hotel committee, John B. Hittell, Chicago, chairman; registra- tion committee, L. s. Louer, Chicago, chairman; banquet committee, Joseph R. Draney, New York, chairman; program committee, E. J. Mehren, New York, chairman.
 According to President Wasser of the American Road Builders associ- etion, the chief difficulty will be en- countered in providing space for all the exhibits, though arrangements will be made for all the additional space it is possible to obtain. "The Highway Industries Exhibitors as sociation," said MT. Wasser, lis giv- ing us splendid cooperation in work ing out the arrangements. We ex- pect to conduct a pre-convention campaign of greater compelling force and more far-reaching effect than ever before, and I believe the attend ance will break all records.
 "The program for the congress, as it is being worked out by the pro- gram committee, will be the exact re- versal of our previous ones. Instead of avoiding controversial subjects, as in the past, the program next year will be made up almost entirely of controversial subjects of interest to the road-building movement as a whole. This, we believe, will greatly increase the interest in the program and will provoke highly interesting and instructive oral discussions from the floor"

Thomas have been in the auto mobile business for long time and knew what a good battery is compos- ed of. They also know the conditions in and around Kingman and should be able to surpass other batteries which are made in other states, in both length of life and service during usage.
 The Star Battery has been given thorough test and found to be all there and ready to go at minutes notice. The battery is for both light ing and starting and is the result flong study and wealth of ex- perience.

Nicholas and Thomas, proprietors of the Star Motor Service Station have made a new wet cell battery. It is a battery of exceptional value and has strong qualities. In fact the makers of the battery are so confident of the sterling qualities of their bat teries that they put 12 months guarantee on their product providing the user will follow their directions and allow the Star Motor Service to give the battery teh attention neces- sa1y to keep any battery in good con- dition. The surprising announcement tha tthe Star Battery will be sold at a nominal price will be received with enthusiasm by the many prospective buyers of batteries. MT. Nicholas
