NUMBER CARS LOADED

Washington. Nov. 1.-Indica-
tons of rapidly improving condi-
tons in the countrys general bus
iness life were given today in re-
ports to the car service section of
the American Railway association,
which, among other things, showed
the greatest weekly loading of

ception of four weeks in Septem-
Der and October, 1920, the load
ing of 1.003,759 cars Of revenue
freight the week of October 81
was the greatest on record.
A record of 596,392 cars loaded

LESS THAN HALF
OF CANDIDATES
LIST EXPENSES
Many Who Aspire to Seats
in Senate May Think
They Are Not Required to
File Expense Statements.

Washington, Nov. while less
than one-half of the candidates for
the senate have filed campaign eX-
pense statements, according to the
count made today by clerks, candi-
dates for the house are still send
ing their reports at the rate of al
most 200 a day. In the midst of
the confusion as to provisions Of
the law, the one fact that stands
out clearly is that house candidates
must file now and after the cleo
tion.
This view was expressed by some
senate officials that many candi-
dates for that branch might ac-
cept the Interpretation of The SUI
preme court decision in the New
berry case by Attorney General
Daugherty that they were not re-
quired to file. In a letter last year
to Representative Luce, republi-
can, of Massachusetts,, the attorney
general answering a specific in
quiry as to the effect of the New
berry decision. said:
CAS- United States senators are
not now elected by legislatures of
the states, as contemplated Iii the
act, it is my opinion that this fact
i'll connection with the holding in
the Newberry decision makes 1t an
necessary for candidate for
United States senator to file any
q 10 tThut n pnnnnHfin
with his nomination or election"
Mr. Daugherty contended that
the only provision of the election
law now in force and effect !s the
one which requires such state
ments to be filed in connection
with the election of candidates Tor
the house.
Most OF the reports on file with
the senate have not been brought
up to date, many relating tc pri-
mary expenses. Senator France,
republican, of Maryland, reported
that in his primary fight his eX-
penditures were $30,795, with con-
tributions of S31, 900. Royal W.
France, his brother, headed the
list of contributors with $l5,UCD.
Senator Townsend, republican.
Michigan, reported that his c&-
penses were $500. After the yri-
mary, Senator Townsend filed
report showing the expenditure of
$30,729 for his nomination fight
by e-Townsend for-Senator
Club"
Senator Ashurst, democrat. Ari-
zona, received a contribution of
500 from the Brotherhood CT Lo-
connective Firemen. He spent Si7,
Senator Ledge of Massachusetts
spent $3,S70, all Of which went TO
republican clubs in his state, While
William A. CASTOR, his democratic
opponent, spent s1,216 in the pri-
mary and $4,113 in the general
election fight.
Some of the other reports show:
Lynn j. Frazier, North Dakota,
(primary), $S49: Senator King,
Utah, ON September 10, contribu-
tions, $1,679: expenditures same;
Senator Hitchcock, Nebraska,
$5,412; Carl w Riddlct, republi-

Is Looked for Unless the
Angora Governm e mt
Yields to the Demand.

nationalist assembly at Angora has

as equivalent only to that of the
administrative council Of a vilayet.
Announcement in the Turkish
press that Kiazim Kara Bekir,
commander in chief Of the Turkish
army in the Caucasus, has been APP
pointed nationalist governor OF
Constantinople, has aggravated the
crisis and the collective resigna-
tion of the Constantinople cabinet
is expected hourly.
Ali Ria Pasha, minister OF the

ment, today told the correspon-
dent: "If Angora persists in our
exclusion from the Laussane peace
conference we shall be impelled
to place the resignation of the min-
istry in the hands Of the sultan"

Best Interests of Both the
Workers and the Public,
Chairman Claims,
INCREASE IN WAGES
WOULD BE RUlN0US
Award Which Would Create
a Deficit Would Crush the
Carriers and Bring DiSaS-
ter to Employees,

Chicago, Nov. Replying to
published criticisms of the United
States railroad labor boards re-
cent decision in the maintenance
of way case. Ben w. Hooper. chair
man Of the beard, tonight issued
a statement reasserting that the
board has served the best interests
of both labor and the public.
The decision in the maintenance
of way case was issued late Satur-
day. 1t raised the minimum rates
of nav from % to 35 cents to 20 to
81 cents an hour. Employees sought
a Ascent an hour minimum.
After asserting that he spoke only
as an Individual. Mr.. Hooper S
statement said in part:
"a wage award which would
crush the railroads would ruin
their employees.
"a wage award which would
create an enormous deflcit IN
every railway treasury would
necessitate the imposition or
higher freight rates on the
farmers, producers and Ship
pers of this country.
1.-THE living wage idea presented
to the labor board called for a
72 to 75-cent per hour minimum
for common labor all over the
United States. and the mainte-
nance of proper differentials for
skilled labor. On the basis OF the
railway income for 1921, this
would have created a railway def
icit of $2,241, ,639.51S.
What Theorists Want.
"A living wage is not the thing
for which the theorists contend.
They want the living wage which
according to their dogmatlc form
ula, means. at their lowest esti-
mate, about S1,650 per year for a
section man. The budget upon
which this wage was predicated
was declared by two Of the expert
representatives Of the employees TO
be a guess and a makeshift.' and
vet the board Is criticised for not
adopting it. A wage scale butt on
that basis for all industries would
exceed the total income of the
z United States by multiplied bill
lions of dollars.
"a flat wage is as impracti-
-at rs fiat dollar. Both have
been tried out in Russia,
where the labOrer may get
millions of rubIes for an
hours work. hut what will his
fiat wage and his fiat ruble
buy him? The swelling tide
of prosperity i'm our country
cannot he hasteued by meth
ods of this kind
Mr., Hooper alno strongly as
