BAD ORDER EQUIPMENT
 SHOWS INEFFICIENCY

Washington, April 26.-In renewing his attack on railroad management, United States Senator Couzens quoted figures to show that modern locomo- tives are not efficiently used and in recent years there had been great increase in bad order cars and en- zines. He again stated that the gen era1 practice of railroad management is to cut wages and raise rates, in stead of endeavoring to find other means of reducing costs.
 "The interstate commerce commis- sion's figures show that the 1922 traf- hc was approximately Io per cent less than in Io2o," said MT. Couzens. And you will observe that the difference in the number of employees was approxi- mately Io per cent, so where IS this Haunted efficiency"
 In answer to the railroads claim that they have cut more than a bill lion dollars from the annual costs, Senator Couzens said that the inter state commerce commission should see that the public Is benefited by re- duced transportation charges.

GARY, AS IS TO BE
 EXPECTED, IS OPPOSED
 TO IMMIGRATION LAW

New York, April 26-The present restrictive immigration law ''is one of the worst things this country ever did for itse1f," said Judge Gary at the annual meeting of the steel trusts stockholders.
 The judge, however, developed quite a streak of humor at the meeting. He said "our men" would always be per fcct1y satisfied "were 1t not for the uncalled for and unjustifable inter ference of outsiders who don't know anything. about our business and would just as soon see 1t go to smash as they would see it succeed"
 After the stockholders digested this gem the judge continued: "When the men are given an opportunity to pass upon the questions that are raised> they are generally easily persuaded that the management has their wei fare at heart"
 Several of the stockholders winked when the judge men tioned that the men" were "easily persuaded"
 The judge finally declared that the could not control prices, as this is something entirely in the control of sellers and purchasers to- gether."
 The trust controls the raw mater ia1 and transportation therefrom and has just raised the price of steel $I.75 a ton to care for as small wage in crease.

 A form resolution for one union in one industry is to be changed to suit local conditions, but all must carry the same idea.
 The instructions say that "on no account must it (the resolution) be thrown into the ring, so to speak, as challenge; let the whole thing be arranged with all possible care, so that the resolution comes as an ex- pression of the feelings of the dele gates"
 Or, in other words, the delegates must be 'worked,'' but they must not know of it.
