This is probably not the worst I

Conrad smiled.
Everywhere I go people will
doubtless be hostile to me. They
will look upon me as a Magdalene,
worthy of their bitterest scorn. But
I'm not going to let them get the
better of me.
There Is one thing which I fear
more than poverty or pain or any
misfortune which can befall me. And
that is that will become bitter
against the world.

in any capacity. Sometimes feel
myself in the place of the heroines

Run Roads for Service,
Not Profit, Says Hopkins

J. A. II, Hopkins, member of the
Committee of Iorty-cight, said last
night at a meeting at the Emanuel
Sisterhood Building, 3l8 East Eighty
second Street, that in granting the
original charters to railroads it never
was intended that the roads should be
operated for private profit.
"The key of the railroad situation is
in a proper administration of the
transportation faclities,' he said.
"Private ownership has failed; govern
mcnt regulation has failed. Railroad
ing is a public function and the roads
should be operated for service and not
for profit.
"The highways and waterways are
public. The railroads are the only
feature of the transportation facilities
that remain in private hands. They
were built by private capital, but the
specific conditions originally were that
they should not be owned privately,
but held in trust. The provisions of
the original charters were that toll
rates should be charged instead of
passenger and freight rates, that they
should only have such lands as were
necessary for transportation purposes
and that those lands should never be
capitalized"

Robinson Power
Bill Is Signed by
Governor Miller
Interests Of Public Fully
Safeguarded, He Assures,
and General Distribution
of Current Is Predicted
From q STAFF Corrcspondent

ALBANY, March 2t.-Governor Mil
Ter yesterday signed the Robinson bill
amending the hydro-electric act of 1921,
as urged by the State Waterpower
Commission. The Governor said he be-
lieved the new law would insure gen
eral distribution of cheap power and
that the interests of the public would
be snfeguardcd because of the state
regulation and control it provided.
In Il memorandum issued with the
bill the Governor points out that if
capital prove unwilling to invest under
the terms laid down in the act the
state will have reserved it's right to
enter waterpowcr development. The
memorandum adds:
"a direct public benefit from dcvcl-
opmcnt of the states watcrpowers can
be secured in one of two ways--either r
from revenue or from general dstribu-
ton of cheap power | believe the
greatest good to all the people will
come from the latter. The power of
regulation must therefore be conserved.
"a great deal of nonsense has been
talked during the last twenty years by
those interested in watcrpower as a
subject for political agitation, but who
have never studied the subject with the
view of securing development of poten-
tial waterpowcr. Excluding the boun-
dairy streams, which involve national and
international complications, there is
the possibility of developing 100000
continuous horsepower on interior
streams. BY far the larger part of
these waterpower rights are now pri-
vately owned, The state, however,
owns rights which put it in a strategic
position to secure development and to
assure the maximum public benefit
"The act-as amended definitely states
the policy of the state, and it now re-
mains to be seen whether private en-
terprise and initiative can be stimu-
lated to develop waterpowcr under
conditions which protect the public
interest"

Mass Meeting in Town Hall
Tomorrow Night Called
by Legion; Frue Story Of
Hospitals To BE Told
New York Civic and War Or
ganizaiions Pledge Sup
port to Fight 10 Provide
Care for the Disabled

The Legion has called n mass meet
ing to be held tomorrow night at
Town Hall. At this meeting the true
story of the treatment afforded
wounded soldiers will be placed
squarcly before the people.
Virtually every civic and war or
ganization in New York has pledged
it's support to the Legion in this fight
to have proper recognition and care
granted the disabled war veterans of
the state, and to force the government
to establish a military hospital here
rather than to have the disabled vet
erans sent to some remote section of
the country.
Colonel c. J. Wickcrsham, chairman
of the state disqualification committee
of the American Legion, will act as
chairman of the mass meeting. Martin
w Littlcton, former Congressman and
a leading member of the New York
bar, will be the principal speaker Ad-
dresses also will be made by State
Commander William f. Deegan and by
men and women who have been def
nitely identified with the work Of car
ing for the wounded and disabled
soldiers.
Plans for the mass meeting were
completed last week at preliminary
meeting at the home Of Mrs. Louis
LcdouX, Of 1870 West Ffty-seventh
Street. Representative of nearly 100
societies affiliated with the American
Legion were present. Tickets for the
mass meeting may be had upon applica-
tion at headquarters OF the Legion,
room 302, Hall of Records.
Since the government announced its
Military Hospital the New York posts
OF the American Legion have been ex-
erting every effort to have adequate
medical facilities for the veterans es-
tablished here, particularly IN the
Adirondack Mountains, at Liberty, and
other places in Ulster County.
AS plans are now the wounded SOL
diers are to be sent to capitalization
centers in the South and West, thus
depriving the men of the personal con-
tact with relatives that they now en-
JOY. According to an announcement
made at the preliminary meeting, New
York State offers ample facilities for
caring for its own wounded soldiers,
particularly for those suffering from
tuberculosis.
To substantiate this fact, j. Noble
Braden, chairman of the executive COM
mittee in charge Of the mass meeting,
read a telegram signed by Francis
Wech, liason officer of the American
Legion stationed at Saranac Lake, in
which it was said that 200 beds in
different sanatoriums in the Adlron-
dack region were available for M
mediate use.
The telegram also stated that within
the next six weeks there would be 200
more beds which might be placed at
the disposal of the government for the
care of ex-soldiers. Mr. Welch re-
ported that there were 300 service men
under medical care at the lake whe
were defraying their own expenses
rather than accept government hos
pitalization elsewhere.
