FRANCE NOW NATION OF SMALL INVESTORS
Railroad Statistics Show Wealth In
 Hands Of PeOple

IafiS, April T.-That France is a country of small investors, and that DIE fortunes are extremely rare, is strikingly proved by the statistics just furnished by two of the biggest railroads, the Orleans and Est com panes.
 The former finds that, out of every 100 shareholding certificates-valued roughly at about $35 apiece, at pres ent exchange-S0 represent small lots of from one to ten shares. Eighteen per cent of the company's certificates represent lots of II to 50 shares, and only per cent represent lots of 50 or more. The latter's figures are much the -same-6s per. cent of the certificates represent from one to ten shares, 23 from Il to 50. and only eight certificates represent more than 50 shares each.
 In addition, it is pointed out that few of the blocks of 50 or more shares are owned by individuals. They are owned by insurance com panies. cooperative societies. and the like so that each block really IS controlled by small investors. Thus 1t can be seen that France is no country of "railroad dynasties." such as the United States was in the great days of the Goulds. the Hills.
 Taking the ailroads' figures as a fair basis, one can arrive at this conclusion: that out of every group of 100 possessors of shares or other negotiable papers, at least 65 are small investorsi from 2S to 30 are in the fairly well-to-do cass; and at the most. only from to are possessors of really big fortunes.
 All of which works distinct progress from the days when all sav- ings were religiously tucked away in the old wool stocking hidden under one of the. hearth bricks.

 ENGLISH WOMEN STAGE. .PERAMBULAT0R RACE
Interesting Classic At London At
 tracts Much Attention

LONDON, April Mrs. Ada Ed wards stopped to feed her five months old youngster at the 1S-mile post. so Mrs. Lily Groom and her infant son won the London Brighton perambulator classic today. The time was 12 hours and 20 minutes.
 The winner finished In good con diton and Master Groom was oooing when his carriage was pushed under the wire.
 Mrs. Edwards was the favorite be- fore the race because she manned a t-running, stream line body, folding perambulator. But the plain tive cry of her child for food when she was leading a IS miles proved too much. She had to stop and the others breeZed by.
 Rose Firmager ended in second place, having made the course In l2 hours and "A minutes.
 Under the rules of the race, in which five entered, the mothers were forced to minister to all the wants of the juvenile jockeys and there were many sudden and unscheduled halts when the babies needed skilled attention.
 Axle grease and food were placed along the 52-mile route.
 The Association Against Cruelty to Children did it's utmost to prevent the race threatening to prosecute the mother of any child who sui fered.
 The race grew out of an argument as to whether the North or south England mothers were the hardest baby carriage chauffeurs. Three starters finished while others spent last night resting along the road Si

SOUTHERN CITIES WIN
 BATTLE AT CAPITAL
Express Companies Are Required To
 Establish Joint Service

WASHINGTON, April 1.--The 6 American Railway Express company, under an order of the interstate commerce commission. today Is re- quired to establish joint service with the Southeastern Express com- pany and to provide reasonable @ through routing for shipments in conjunction with that company to and from all points in the United States. Many southern cities and shipping associations joined in the proceedings before the commission in which the decision resulted.
 The Southeastern Express com pany, which operates over lines of the Southern railway, mad declared that the refusal of the American Railway Express company. which op- crates over eastern and western lines, to make reasonable arrangements for cooperation in handling shipments constituted an unjust burden on southern shippers and restricted de- velopment of the Southeastern EX- press company's business.
 The commission concluded that the Southeastern company was justified in it's complaint and declared that through routes and transfer /point 5 should 'be established. The commis- sion suggested that an arbitration committee be set up by the two companies to fix the form of the new arrangement and declares that in case of failure to agree the commits sion itself would pass upon disputes which might be left unsettled after arbitration.

The allegations bv Mrs, Miles Poin- from Washington, now United States minister to Peru, that drinking ana gambling are the chief characteristics of social life among Washingten's er- ficial set. were regarded by Secre- tary of War Weeks and others .as too ridiculous for notice"
 But the Secretary of Labor. J. J. Davis. took such exposes very seri- ously. Since coming to Washington he has acquired something of rep utatiou as a social butterfly. and his suite in a fashionable local hotel has been the frequent scene of dinner parties.
 '1 have entertained quite "a bit during my residence in Washingt on," he said when asked regarding the letters of Washington's Margot As- quith, and have been entertained with considerable regularity. Were the official set addicted to strong drink and~gambling, l would know 1t. l have seen nothing on which such statements as made by Mrs, PoindeXter could be based. There- fore such statements were base- less"
 Perhaps. Secretary Davis has personal crow to pick with Mrs. Pofn. dexter, for in one of her letters she referred to the alleged custom of Mrs. Davis to do her marketing in government automobile that ia furnished the secretary for official business purposes.
