Cost Less Than Private Operation Of
American Railroads, ExDlreo.
tor Declares.
Washington, Feb. Talking into
consideration every expenditure. by
shippers, travellers or by congression-
al appropriation, the railroad system
OF the United States only cost the
American public an average OF $470,.
673,404 per month for all the wartime
period when the government ran it,
William G McAdoo, first director gen
erat OF the administration, testified
today before senate investigation
cOmmJttee He said il was costing
under private control now an average
OF S525,4l2 1875 per month
IN other words, the cost Of private
operation since federal control has
been 43 per cent higher than under
the railroad administration, Mr.. Ne.
Adoo said In concluding.
Speaking Oh the general results and
effects of restored private control, and
the return to the old so-called compe-
titye system OF railroad operation
with its great wastes and ineAicien-
cies, with the tremendous burden i'm.
posed on the public Of Increased
freight and passenger rates. the evil
consequences of which are reflected
IN the prostratlon OF agriculture, labor
and industry, OF the colossal claims
made by the railroad corporations
against the government for alleged
undermantenance ineflciency OF la
Dor, etc. / am convinced that II would
have cost the American people less
money TO have maintained control for,
a test period than has resulted from
their return to private control
Il am also convinced that the pres
ent level OF freight and passenger
rates would have been unnecessary
because there is no question in my
mind that a well-drected and unified
operation Of the railroads would enor-
mously reduce the cost OF operation.
and greatly increase efficiency
Mr. McAdoo returned TO the attack
on his critics among railroad eXecu-
tlyes. today. dealing chiefly with two
charges. the first concerning under
maintenance, while the second Gas a
warm defense OF his own labor and
wage policies. Railroads went back
10 private ownership, he said, with
more locomotives and more cars
than they had given the government.
AS 10 the charges OF neglected repairs,
ne sad that the total cost OF fitting
freight cars for service after the gov.
eminent concluded was not more than
$9,5OS,00O and turning to reported con
ditions today he said il would cost
railroads S33.365 GOO to repair the cars
that are TOO damaged for service now.
AS 70 wage increases under his adj
ministration Mr. McAdoo asserted
they amounted 10 1856, S0Z 900 per year,
while increases granted to the employ
es I'm 1920, under private operation,
amounted 10 sl.09l ,010, 900
The fact is. railroad employees work
ed for less pay during the war than
any other class OF industrial workers
doing similar work, he declared "The
realization they were working for their
government in the stress and strain OF
war and that they would be fairly
treated Inspired them and spurred
them TO unusual effort and faithful
service.

BLACK EAGLE SHIPPING.

McCutchan & Hogan, lessees of the Black Eagle property at Harshaw, continue to keep the ore platform covered with ore from the mine. This week they shipped two carloads of fine ore to the Douglas smelter of the Copper Queen. Regular ship meuts will go forward as fast as the ore can be brought to Pata gania. Heavy rains of the last few days have washed out the road in some places between the mine and town, and MT. Me Cutchan reports much needed repair work to keep the road from suffering greater damage c. B. Wilson assisted in hauling Black Eagle ore from the mine this week to make room for more ore in the bins at the mine. The ore is hauled from the mine to the ore bine by burros, as there is no road up to the mine.- PatagOnian.

Path of Is Cent
Hose Leads to
Old Ladies Home

NEW YORK, March 2S.-(U. P)-
Retail merchants of Topeka, Kansas,
state that o working girl can ade-
quately and comfortably clothe her
self on ss7.55 a year. They are right.
A girl can dress on that amount-but
she shouldn't.
The path which the 25-cent hose
and the "a shoe travels leads direct
to the "Old Ladies' Home" A cot
ton stocking is not conductive to mar
riage. A cotton hose never got girl
a job nor a husband, nor will it hold
either for her. The girl with the run
down heel and 25-cent pair of stock
ings will get about as far in the bust
ness world as an unshod horse with a
SPAWN in a trotting race.
A man who is forever conceiving q
clothing schedule for women should
try his theories out on his wife before
spreading them broadcast and unless
the wife is as submissive as the house,
hold doormat, she will soon show him
his error. Even this would prove
nothing for a wife can dress much
more cheaply than working girl who
is obliged to look spick and span
every hour of the day.
In order to comply with the $S7.55
schedule, girl would have little time
for leisure or corner movies or
beaux. She would be compelled to
! spend her evenings renovating the dol
lar corset. taking spots out of last sea-
sons $50 suit and bending over a 20
cent undervest in the boarding house
wash basin.
Nobody wants just the necessities oil
life. A girl has no right to be content
with hose that make her young legs
look like scrawney caterpillars and
her heart feel like a leaden lump
!, When we are youngsters ITS the ice
cream cone that makes life seem good
and when we grow up we are still en-
titled to some of the furbelows OF
life. There is nothing that will re-

purchase of some longed for article Of

1t is every woman's primary busi-
ness in life to look Just as we'll as she
possibly can, whether she be house,
wife trying to hold a husband or a
shop girl trying to hold her job. l do
not mean that woman shall skimp
on food and essentials in order to
have fine feathers. but If the working
girl spends one-fifth of her earnings
on clothes it is not too much. Clothes
are in way her stock and trade. Her
self respect depends largely upon
them. Watch the corners of your
