CHANGES PLANNED FOR
 SWEDEN'S RAILROADS
Government Plans Their Operation As An Independent Business Cooper
 ation-Interest Nation Wide.

Stockholm. June 27.-The socializ-
 ing Of all Swedish government rail- roads. and their operation as an in dependent business corporation, has been planned by the government so-
 cialization committee in voluminous report just published. which is arous- ing nation wide discussion.
 The committee recommends that the roads continue to be owned by the government. which is to supply the working capital and to reserve the right of inspection. but that the actual business be continued in general as ii is done by private corporations. Thus the wages and salaries Of employees would no longer be decreed by the government, but would be agreed up- on after bargaining by both sides. The workmen would. naturally, have the right to strike. The program under the new scheme would be to conduct only such traffic as proves financially profitable. while at the same time only the covering Of costs will be aimed at instead of high profits.
 The administration of the railroads under the new plan is 10 be done partly hy an assembly of 2s members, and partly hy board of seven direc- tors, Nine members of the assembly are to be chosen by the government. eight by the Riksdag. six by the em- ployes, and six hy various outside cor pora tions which represent public traf- fc interests, This assembly would elect the board of directors, which make all decisions regarding wages and tariffs, The assembly is 10 have full charge of the investment of funds, distribution of profits, purchase or sale Of railroad property, etc.

 AS long as the weather permits the use of cornmeal it is very much worth while for the person who would gain in weight to eat as much corn bread as possible. Corn is fattening in itself and when sombined with milk, sugar and eggs it adds many calories to the diet and eventually ounces to the weight. Plenty of butter is just natur- ally needed with mullins so the fat calories mount up quickly and easily. |

Bedford, Ind, April 11.--Many diff ferent periods Of history, some reach ing back hundreds of years before Christ, are represented in specimens of stone being assembled by the In- diana Limestone Quagrymen's asso- citation. When completed the collec- tion is planned to constitute a com- plete history of stone, and include every variety known. Stone carvings from all ages traced by historians and Psychologists are being gathered.
 Most valuable Of the material all ready obtained is the collection of stone furniture and tablets recently dug from the tomb of Tel El-Amrana and now being sent here by the Egypt Exploration society, for ex- hibition during the spring conferences of architects and builders.
 An effort is being made to obtain limestone specimens from the oldest known building in the world. recently uncovered at Tel-El-O -Obeid, Baby lonia, four miles from ur, Of Biblical fame Reports to the association de- clare this find has moved the ancient history of Bahylonia back another thousand years.
