Willard Declares This Will
Solve Problem If Given
Fair Chance.

Washington, April 5-Private op-
erattona Of railroads promises to
solve the transportation problem, If
the carriers are given fair
chance" Daniel. Willard. president Of
the baltimore and Ohio railroad stat
ed today before the senate interstate
commerce committee In continuing
his statement begun yesterday In re-
ply to government ownefship state
ments OF William &C.. McAdoo. former
director general. of railroads.
No Interference Wanted. w.:
What the railroads need more
than anything else. at the present
time he asserted, lis an opportunity
under h terms Of the transportation
act to work out their problems with
out unnecessary and b~urdensone in
reference. I am confident that they
will provide the people of this coun-
try with adequate transportation at
reasonable rates ana lower rates than
are to be found for similar service in
any other country in the world" Il.
He emphasized that in 1920, after
termination OF federal control, the
railroads carried two per cent more
freight than while in charge Of the
government.
Contentious Of Mr.. McAdoo that
the government returned the roads
in better condition than when they
were taken over, were denied by Mr..
Willard who said the carriers 'conten-
tons that their condition had been
deprecated had an important bear
ing IN future rates.
Must Make Up Difference.
1.-The difference in standard, how
ever great, must be made up" he
said, 'and unless It il. made up from
moneys paid into the carriers by the
director general on account OF under
maintenance, II, Will ,of course, have
to b. done with moneys collected from
the people through the@medium Of
TRANSPORTATION sdhaIrrsseAs; the question
itself had q. very Intimate relation
with the fnntGre basis pirates"
Mr. willard presented detailed evil
denoe in the case OF the Baltimore and
Ohio to show that the condition Of
cars, locomotives and roadway was
not as good: when, federal control end
ed as when the line was taken over.

+ London, April 5.-(By the Associ-
ated Press.J-The motion attacking
house of commons tonight by Sir
William Joynson-Hicks, Unionist, has
attracted considerable attention in po-
litical newspaper circles but it il not

trouble for the government.
The motion is. however, a clear In
dication Of the continuing hostile at
titude of a considerable section of the
despite the big parliamentary ma
jority by which the governments
policy toward the Genoa conference
was endorsed on Monday. The gov
eminent has decided to treat the mo-
ton seriously and the whips are seek
